RheumatiCs In
United States.
Can All Be Cured By Uric-O.

If rheumatism continues to spread
as 1t has in the past few years 1t would
seem as though we would before long
become nation of cripples. The ter
rible destructiveness Of this disease is
apparent on every side of us. Almost
nine out of ten cripples one meets had
their atfliction brought on by rheuma-
tism. How many thousands more that
are hopelessly bedridden and whom
We never see. Rheumatism, from the
very nature of the disease, can never
cure itself and II neglected is bound to
grow worse rather than better. II you
ever have any twinges of Rheumatism
go to the druggist and get bottle Of
Uric-O, the wonderful new Rheumatic
Specific. 1t will cure you and 1t Is the
only treatment In the world that will
cure YOU permanently and thoroughly
UricO cures by It's direct action on

tism. Liniments and plasters only
serve to drive 1t from one spot to an
other They never cure Rheumatism,
because ii is primarily blood disease
and until the blood is cleared from
the poison a cure cannot take place.
You can test Uric-O free Of charge
If you wish. Just cut out this adver-
tisement and send it to the Smith
Drug company, 1853 Smith Building,
Syracuse, N. Y. together with your
name and the name of your druggist.
They will give you an order on him
for a rs cent bottle free which you can
test and try to your own satisfaction.

with that of the great John Ruskin,
who had but four toys during his en-

toys, having interested him In build

What the Middlebury Register Thinks
Of the Hyde Park Savings Bank.

Up in "spunky Lamoille" county re-
sides man who believes with all bis
might in the liberal use of printers
ink and is frank to admit that the
success of his very large business is
due in great measure TO the fact
that he has constantly kept his bust
ness before the public through the
medium of the press This man is eA.
Gov. c. S. Page. His hide business at
the present time is known all over the
world; and visit to this enormous
establishment would be revelation to
one unacquainted with its growth in
the past twenty-seven years. Hyde
Park, though pretty little village,
would not have one-fourtn the public
ity il now enjoys We're il not for the
fact that il is the home of business
that has grown In the past quarter
| century to such size that it COM
nands attention all over the county
and beyond.
Another enterprise that was started
by Mr.. Page and has prospercd from
! its very inception is the savings bank
| in his home town. Aside from The
fact that this increase shows that Yer
mont was hardly touched by the finan-
cial disturbances of late. i; is an ex.
cellent testimonial to the thrift Of Ver-
mCnters as a whole. The Doast- and
it is a justifiable one-that the funds
are invested entirely in the state, may
also be true of other banks; out {. S.
Page believes in letting the people
know it, The people have faith in Mr.
Pages ability. honesty. tact aud man
agement. They are glad that their
savings are kept at home; and Il tends
to beget confidence to learn that in
nineteen years the concern has lost
not one dollar from bad notes

II has been estimated that about
one boy out of Is is left-handeo when
be reaches the age of ten. This is his
mothers fault in not making him use
his right hand more during his baby
hood. In Germany there are schools
where the boy is taught to be right
handed. Nearly all tools are made for
right-handed rAen, and the boy who
grows up left-handed will be awk'
ward.
II one can use both hands alike he
has an advantage in some things; but
1t seems as If nature intended the
right arm to do most OF the work.

Stock shippers and feeders in
western and southern Colorado are
receiving clearly defined illustra-
tions Of the advantages Of dispos-
ing Of their stuff in Pueblo almost
daily since the Pueblo Livestock
Commission company opened Off
ces here. About one week ago
Montrose shippers arrived in Pu-
eblo with twelve standard gauge
cars loaded with fat COWS and
feeder steers. The local company
bid strong Kansas City prices on
this stuff, but the shippers de-
clined the offer and took their cat
tie on to Kansas City where they
lost from e to : a head on the en-
tire string. Last Monday four
teen cars of cattle came in from
Rifle on which the Pueblo bid was
again refused These cattle were
also sold in Kansas City for less
money than they would have
Melted here.
Some Of the recent sales made
here were one car Of -lO75-pound
COWS for Charlie Mayer Of Eagle.
at $3.50 l,er hundred. A car Of
dehorned natives, weighing 1850
pounds, brought "a q hundred. A
load Of horned steers ut 1854. In
all Of these Instances the deals
were better for the shipper than
would have resulted had the stuff
been taken to Kansas City.
The results already accomplished
since the Offices Of the Pueblo Live
stock Commission company were
opened here are most satisfactory.
The increase in the number Of
cattle fed in the Arkansas valley
alone will be great Pueblo Chief
