The HEART CAN'T STAND
RHEUMATIC ACID
POISONING
To Free and Correct the BLOOD q
Uric-O Treatment il Advised

There is great danger in those sharp, shoot
ing pains through the chest around the region
Of the heart. 1t means that poisonous uric and
rheumatic acid are there ready to spring and
grip tightly the muscles controlling the he arts
action. Don't neglect these warnings, they
are the danger signals Nature flashes to you
for help. You must neutralize and drive these
dangerous poisons from the system, or sooner
or later they will overcome you.
The only true way to cure Rheumatism is
to get at it from the inside with Uric-O. 1t
acts with marvellous swiftness upon the
muscles, kidneys and blood. Clears out the
sand-like deposits in the muscles, forces the
kidneys to perform those duties for which
they were designed and neutralizes the acid
within the blood
Your physician will admit that this is the
only true way to cure Rheumatism perma-
nently, and should know that Uric-O is the
only remedy that will do it successfully and
permanently. Uric o is liquid taken in
ternally, times daily, and does not contain
any morphia, opium or other so-called "pain
deadeners." 1t is good for Rheumatism in
any form. Sciatica, Muscular, Inflammatory
and Articular Rheumatism all yield readily to
| Uric-O. Write the makers OF the remedy
and they can tell you Of many wonderful
cures that Uric-O has made right here in your
own town.
1t sells for 75c and 81 90 the bottle or you
can obtain trial bottle free by writing to the
Smith Drug Co., 1873 Smith Bldg, Syracuse,
NY

DENATUREO ALCOHOL.
Practical ExemplihcatiOns of It's Uses
mt jamestown Exposition.

mt jamestown Exposition.
Uncle Sam proposes to instruct farm
ers in the uses of denatured alcohol at
the jamestown exposition next year.
Among government exhibits will be one
showing the development and uses of
denatured alcohol which will be in
charge of government officials. There
will also be exhibited various internal
combustion engines adapted to the use
of alcohol as fuel. Special machinery
is being made for utilizing this new
fuel, and it will be chiefly the object Of
this exhibit to show the public how it
may be applied to heating, cooking and
lighting purposes and also as a fuel
for engines to be used for various farm
purposes. Announcement is made, we
observe that so economical will this
fuel be that farmers can make their
own supply from the waste products of
their farms. We do not believe that al
cohol can be made from various farm
products economically by farmers, but
rather that large plants will have to be
erected at considerable cost where such
farm produce may be utilized. We do
not believe that the farmer should be
led to think that he can erect a small
distillery on his farm TO make alcohol
! successfully and at paying price.

LECTURERS DUTIES.
New York state Lecturer Shepard
Thinks Them Largely Supervisory.


Especial Correspondence
My conception of the duties of the
lecturer Of a state grange Is that they
consist primarily Of supervision of the
lecturers department In the oranges
of the state; that the state lecturer
should keep In close touch with the
subordinate grange lecturers by means
Of quarterly reports from them giving
In detail the lecture work carried out
In each grange. In this way the trend
Of thought In the subordinate oranges
can become known to the state lecturer
and also the work the oranges are do
ing.
1t has been often said that the rea-
son of the great popularity Of Presi-
dent Mckinley with the people lay In
the fact that he kept In touch with
them, that he kept his ear close to the
ground" and learned their wishes so
quickly that he was enabled to direct
public sentiment In the right dlrec-
ton. There should be the closest con-
nection In the lecture work between
the state lecturer and lecturers of the
subordinate oranges. In addition 1t Ia
advisable that the state lecturer per-
sonally visit Pomona and subordinate
oranges, picnics and other gatherings
of farmers as his time will permit.
believe that each county should have q
lecturers association to whose meet
ings the subordinate oranges win send
their lecturer. These meetings usual
ly should be held on SOME other date
than that of the Pomona grange. A
full day can be most probably spent
and when possible the state lecturer
should attend these county meetings.
Such visits could not, at the most, be
made at more than one session Of the
association each year.
The educational work of the grange
is acknowledged generally as of the
greatest importance. The state lee
turer should be given the responsibility
of this department of grange WORK
and be held accountable for it. 1t has
beconxso important that it demands
his entire time In order that best re
suits may come therefrom.

gain such an acquaintance throughout

while without it the opportunity for

greatly diminished.

all helped The position of subordl-
nate lecturer is one of great RESPONSE
bility, yet it frequently devolves upon
| persons having little realization of its
requirements. To such as these the
state lecturer should prove a friend
indeed, and every call from these sub
ordinate workers should have his in
slant response. For every subordinate
and Pomona lecturer in the state to
feel perfectly free to write to the state
lecturer on any subject in doubt and
to be sure of instant interest, careful
consideration and helpful and pune
tual reply-such Is the ideal relation
In handling the lecture hour work in a
state. And to establish such a rela-
ton, then working out its natural
fruits, is the fundamental task of the
state lecturer.
1t Is clearly within his province to
visit as many as possible of the sub
ordinate and Pomona oranges during
the year. Here ne Is not only able to
personally greet and encourage lee
turers, but he sees the conditions under
which they labor, he gains information
that he can apply to other fields, he
comes In contact with the rank and
file of membership and thereby him
self gains capacity for the broad view
which the duties Of his position con-
tinually require. He may speak on the
Order. or, In his judgment, may lead
the thought of his hearers out upon
more general lines, in order to en-
phasiZe the broad educational view
which the grange must be continually
giving to its members If it Is to expect
an influence and maintain its hold.
The state lecturer may organize new
oranges, but If he is faithful to the
duties that logically attach to his de-
partment he will have little time to do

centration of his best energies to devel-
oping and improving the lecture hour
work constitutes his specialized prov

Always should the authority of the
local lecturer be recognized and I'M
der his or her direction should all eff
forts be exerted. The suggestion of
methods tried elsewhere or deemed
worthy of trial; the adoption of innOva-
tons or the discontinuance of customs
deemed unworthy; whatever the state
lecturer may undertake, for the benefit
of the lecture hour. should be eXerted
through the local lecturer, who stands,
in that immediate field. responsible for
the work.
So the state lecturers work, how
ever exerted, in spoken word, written
suggestion or by personal contact is
10 exercise wise supervision, TO pa
tiently and tactfully counsel and to be
an unfailing source of helpfulness to
his subordinates in stimulating the
largest interest and in awakening the
members of the Order to its magnti-
cent possibilities.
