Rheumatism
THE CAUSE AND CURE,

Uric acid is introduced into the sys-
TEN by food and drink. Normally, the
excessive amount the acid should fbe
excreted through the regular channels,
but the amount that is retained and
absorbed in the tissues is the cause of
rheumatic troubles.
The Rholoids treatment possesses
that peculiar quality to form soluble
compound with the uric acid, and in
this form it is carried from the system.
Rholoids is easy and pleasant to take,
and is highly successful in all forms
of rheumatism, neuralgia, govt, lqmba-
go, lame back, kidney, bladder and
such diseases arising from excessive
uric acid. The regular size treatment

PUBLIC OPINION COR
RECTS GREAT EVILS,

Washington, Feb. 3.-Public opinion
has been prompt and efficient in the
correction of evils when they are stat
ed specifically. This is one of the con,
clusions reached by Herbert Knox
Smith, commissioner of corporations,
and expressed in the annual report
of the Bureau of Corporations, made
public today.
'The experience of the bureau"
says Commissioner Smith, S|seems to
point logically to the need of extend
ing such results by the creation of a
general publicity commission for sup
ervising Interstate corporations, that
shall give in substantially the same
form as is furnished for few corpo-
rations the essential facts relating to
all the great interstate corporations"

LEGISLATION is RESPONSE
BILE FOR The HARD TINE

Lewiston, Ida, Feb. 3.-Blaming
antitrust legislation for the cessa-
tion of railroad building, except on
projects well under way, President
Howard Elliott, of the Northern Pa
cific railroad said last night: Not sat
isfied with the havoc already done
by extreme and unwise statements.
President Roosevelt made another at
tack on corporations in his recommen
dation for Federal control of stock
issues of corporations. 1t is so rabid
as to be alarming. The encroaching
power given the commission over the
railroads has checked building for
years to come and the west must Suf
fer for this unwise legislation. The
talk about watered railroad stock is
untrue There is not a single drop of
water in any railroad stocks in the
country. 1t would be impossible to
replace the railroads for the par val
ue of the railroad stocks today"

AMERICAN SYMPATHY


Washington, Feb. 3.-The following
cablegram of sympathy for the king
of Portugal was today dispatched
from the White House addressed to
King Manuel II, Lisbon: Il hasten to
express to you and your bereaved
queen mother my heartfelt condo
lence by reason of the tragic death
of your royal father and brother. The
American people feel a peculiar bond
of sympathy with the royal family
and the people of Portugal il their
great aff1iction, and they have been
inexpressibly shocked and grieved at
the dreadful tragedy (Signed) Theo-
dore Roosevelt.
The United States Senate today,
without debate, adopted resolutions
deploring the assassination of the
king and crown prince of Portugal.
The house today passed the Sullo-
way bill granting pensions of s12
monthly to all destitute widows of
honorably discharged soldiers.

Class Recital Was Success.

1t was indeed very attentive and
Katharine Audrain MacKay's class
recital Saturday afternoon. 1t was Civ
en- entirely in class form, every num-
ber being rendered under the super
vision of the teacher. 1t was noted
with much pleasure. by some of the
audience, the promising beginning of
some of the class and the marked i'm
provement which had been made il
others. All instantly realizing the
careful work on the part of both teach
er and pupil to attain these ends. The
three trios were, perhaps, more espe-
cially enjoyed, the Gypsy Rondo" by
Dot Bell, Beth Fitzgerald and Grace
Geyer being enthusiastically receiv-
ed. OF special merit also were the
solos by Ruby Bean and Mary White,
which would have been creditable
for persons far more advanced in
years. Mrs. MacKay is acknowledged
to be one of Roswell's foremost pia-
no teachers, and one listening to her
class recital Saturday could readily
understand why this distinction is
given to her. The class was assisted
by little Misses Sophie Anderson and
Irene Murray, who gave bright little
readings appropriate to the month OF

Russell builds new wagons.
Atwood is Nonresident.

The Record stated Saturday that
J. B. Atwood, the man who owns a
water plant east of the railroad and
who is an advocate of the bond issue
for waterworks and sewers, lived in
this city. The part referring to his
place of residence was a mistake. He
is an engineer and lives at Amarillo.
But that makes the argument all the
stronger. 1t takes away whatever SEN
timent might have been in the case,
and makes it all the more a matter
of plain business for him. He favors
the bonds, inspite of his private water
plant, on purely business basis.
