One OF the 1rst persons on whom the

TheodorIc. who. like the people. must
marry within the prlnclpalIty. AT the
time II was issued be was studying at

the succession. Meanwhile his father
directed the heralds 10 examine the
family trees OF the nobility with a

witch the young prince could legally
marry. They reported that but one
family. the Count Of vervin's, came
within the limit. In this family was

and a very suitable match for the
young prince.
Theodore at once sent the prime min

The minister returned, reporting that
the count felt greatly honored by the

4 Nation Of CTlpples. Rheuna-
tISm Beyond Control
The Only Hope to Rheumatic Sufferers
Is Uric-O Treatment.

If rheumatism continues to spread as
it has in the past few years, it would
seem as though we would before long
become nation Of criplpes. The ter
rible destructiyeness Of this disease Is
apparent on every side of us. Almost
nine out of ten of the cripples one meets
had their attliction brought on by rheu-
matism. How many thousands more
there are that are hopelessly bed-ridden
and whom we never see. rheumatism,
from the very nature Of the disease, can
never cure itself, and if neglected is
bound to grow worse rather than better.
III Won ever have any twinges Of rheu-j
matisin, 20 to your druggist and get a
bottle OF Uric-0, the wonderful new
rheumatic specific. 1t viii cure you and
ii is the only treatment i'll the world
that will cure you permanently and thor.
oughly. Uric.0 cures by its direct ae
tion on the muscles, blood and kidneys.
1t seeks out the poisonous uric and rheu-
matte acid and drives it from the system
and ii is only a treatment of such a
nature that will ever cure rheumatism.
Lniments and plasters only serve to
drive ii from one spot to another They
never cure rheumatism, because it is
primarily a blood disease, and until the
blood is cleared from the poison, q cure
cannot take lpace.
There never was case of rheumatism
that Uric-0 could not cure, and you
should not put OF taking it. You can

A few other things, which happened

posted on q wagon in waiting and the
constable moved off feeling assured
that he had annexed sufficient amount
of goods to satisfy claim of 800

to by walters who had worked in the
establishment.
Another constable came on a few
minutes later with another claim on
behalf of creditors of the defunct con-
Germ. but all that could be found was
a pyramid of pies of various age and
previous degrees of servitude and these
he declined to take.
The proprietor of the place has been
among those missing for several days

forgotten to return, proceeded to take
anything in sight which pleased their

Girl Loses All Her Faculties,

New York-Pretty Edith Wardrop,
the young girl who lost all her facuh
ties as a result of sudden fright last
week still lies in state of coma in
the Lincoln hospital. Doctors and
nurses are straining every effort to re-
store her to sensibility, Her coe is
surrounded with pretty Christmas OF
ferings from relatives, and the nurses
and her brother bend constantly to ask
If she realizes that this is Christmas,
and vainly endeavor to make her real
iZe that she is surrounded with Christ
mas tokens.
Wednesday she entered upon her 3Gth
hour of coma and so far, medical skin
has been unable to assist her more
than to keep her heart barely beating.
The case is so strange that doctors
from all over the city have visited the
hospital to study it, and in the after
noon a consultation was scheduled In a
determined effort to save her life.
Edith, whose home is at Mount
Kisco, was visiting her aunt Mrs
Kelan of 237 Willis avenue, the Bronx
Last Thursday she paid a call on hel
friend, Adrienne La Roche, at 1884 East
37th street. Their pleasant chat was
broken by the screech and wild clang'
ing Of fire engines. They looked out
of the window and were dumfounded
to see the engines draw up at the next
house.
Terrified Adrienne glanced at Edith
to find her pale and frightened.
Edith" she exclaimed, whats the
matter? You look as though you had
seen a ghost"
Edith did not reply, but stood as II
transfxed She was led to a couch
and a physician, who was unable to re
store her to consciousness, advised
that she be sent to the hospital. There
the whole staff was called in, but none
could diagnose the case. They eX
planned that the sudden shock had act
ed like a short circuit and had burned
out motory centre in the girls brain
corresponding to fuse in electricity
The girl has become the centre OF
attraction in the hospital. The doc
tors call her trance-like condition
"hemiplegia," but are powerless to
cure her
The girls brother kept telling her
that it was Christmas, but sne re
NAMED as Indifferent as if dead. AT
one time they thought her lips moved,
and awaited anXiously to hear her
speak, but the watchers met with the
same disappointment that has attend
ed all their efforts.
Unless the girl shows some improve
ment soon, DR.. d. Clifford Martin,
house physician at the Lincoln hospi'
tai. saws she will die.
