EVEN If DISCOURAGED
TRY DR.. WILLIAMS PINK PILLS
FOR YOUR RHEUMATISM.
The Pills Have Cured the Disease In
Almost Every Form and Even In
Advanced STAGES,

rheumatism is painful infamma.
tion of the muscles or of the coverings
of the joints and is sometimes accom-
panied by swelling. The pain is sharp
and shooting and does not confine itself
to any one part of the body, but after
settling in one joint or muscle for
time, leaves it and passes on to another.
The most dangerous tendency of the
disease is to attack the heart. External
applications may give relief from pain
for a time but the disease cannot be
cured until the blood is purified. DR..
Williams Pink Pills are the best medi-
cine for this purpose as their action is
directly on the blood, making it rich,
red and healthy. When the blood is
pure there can be no rheumatism.
Mrs. Ellen A. Russell, of South Golf
ST., Auburn, Me-, says: 81 had been
sick for fifteen years from impure blood,
brought on by overwork. My heart was
weak and my hands colorless. l was
troubled with indigestion and vomiting
spells, which came on every few months.
l had no appetite and used to have awful
fainting spells, falling down when at
over. My head ached continuously for
five years.
"About two years ago began to feel
rheumatism in my joints, which became
so lame 1 could hardly walk. My joints
were swollen and panied me terribly.
"Dr. Williams Pink Pills were rec
commended to me by friend, after had
failed to get we'll from the Doctors
treatment. When I began taking the
pills, the rheumatism was at its worst.
/ had taken only few boxes, when the
headaches stopped and not long after
ward felt the pain in my joints be-
coming less and less, until there was
none at ALL The stiffness was gone and
1 have never had any return of the rheu-
matism."
DR.. Williams Pink Pills have cured
such diseases as nervous and general
debility, indigestion, nervous headache,
neuralgia and even partial paralysis and
locomotor ataxia. AS n tonic for the
blood and nerves they are unequalled

China ON eve OF
GREAT UPHEAVAL

Victoria, July 1.-"China is on the
eve of great upheaval that will be
much worse than the TAPPING rebel
lion" said Capt. W. Smith. master of
a Butterfield and Swire river steamer
of the Yangtse Kiang, in Central
China, who came on the steamer Shi-
nano Maru.
He said the southern revolution was
we'll organized and we'll planned, but
had been launched before the leaders
wished. Probably about the end Of
the year the big uprising will begin.
The leaders are educated men and
have been preparing fer nearly twenty
years. Great quantities of arms hav
been struggled in despite all efforts
of the government 70 put down this
traffic.
The revolution is not aimed against
foreigners, said the captain. who while
travelling between Changsha and Han
kow on the big Chinese river, has had
great opportunity to acquaint him
self with he situation. The leaders
know full we'll that any move against
foreigners will bring the powers into
the field. The rice harvest expected
this month will have much to do with
the rebellion. Rice is dear-about
twice its usual price-and a great
shortage is expected. If the harvest
fails rebellion is certain.

Chimes Way Noted.

Washington July l.-Reading be-
tween the lines OF the statement issued
by the japanese chambers of COM
MERGE assembled at Tokyo, directed to
President Roosevelt and also to the
American chambers of commerce, the
officials in Washington see implied the
threat Of boycott against American
goods entering Japan. The boycott
directed by Chinese merchants against
American products two years ago in
re resentment Of the treatment accorded
Chinese of the better class entering
America in the course of their travels
around the world was productive of
better conditions, for the administra-
ton exerted all Of its power to amlior-
ate the rlgors of. the exclusion laws
and to facilitate the entry of Chinese
merchants aud Students.
Therefore it is assumed the Japan
ese merchants have decided TO have
recourse to the same method of show
ing their resentment against the treat
ment accorded to their people in San
Francisco. Unlike the Chinese mer-
chants, however, they have first served
notice of their intention upon the
American commercial interests so as
to afford them an opportunity to avert
the boycott by bringing To bear upon
the merchants Of the Pacific coast,
now supposedly in need of Eastern as-
sistapce.
