Sudden Deaths, Heart Failure and Paralysis
Are Caused By Poisonous Uric and Rheums-
tic Acids,

TIC ACIDS,
The rheumatic person is skeptical regard
ing the claims Of almost any remedy advertised
as a cure for Rheumatism and one can scarcely
blame him for being so. All the plasters
and lniments combined never actually cured
a case of Rheumatism. They may relieve it
n one quarter but it is sure to break out
somewhere else. The only true way to cure
Rheumatism is to drive it from the system,
for as long as the Uric and Rheumatic Acid
remains in the blood one is never entirely
free from the trouble. This is where the
value of Uric-O as a permanent cure for
Rheumatism comes in. 1t seeks out the
Rheumatic poison in the blood, muscles and
kidneys, renders it inert and harmless and
drives it out of the system. That is why
Uric-O is such an admirable and effective cure
for Rheumatism.
The chief reason that Uric-O is such a
wonderful cure for Rheumatism is, that it is
designed and prepared to cure Rheumal ism
and Rheumatism only. 1t is composed OF
perfect antidotss for the rheumatic acid
poison in the system. That is the secret OF
its wonderful SUI cess. Rheumatism simply
cannot exist in PERSONS system if Uric-O
is used.
Uric.O is sold by druggists at 75c and S. 90
the bottle, but if you still feel skeptical about
its efficacy you can test it free of charge by
cutting out this advertisement and sending
same, together with your name and address
also the name of your drug. ist, to The Smith
Drug Company, 764 Smith Bldg, Syracuse,
\. Y, and they will send you an order on the
dealer for 7sc bottle, free.

TO DEMAND new LAW
Associated Advertising Clubs of Amer
lea In Annual Convention at
Kansas City.
Special to the Herald.


Kansas City, Mo-, Aug. 25.-"Honest
Advertising" is the keynote of the
annual convention of the Associated
Advertising Clubs of America, which
began in this city today. The conven-
ton will vote upon a resolution which
provides an amendment to the Aubu-
chon bill, introduced last winter in
congress. The bill provides penalties
for any advertiser misrepresenting
goods in any detail. The amendment
sought would be to force every pub
Usher in the United States who runs
in his periodical to pub
fish daily on the editorial page a
sworn statement of the circulation of
the paper, if it is circulated through
the mails.
An effort to secure a law through
which the power of the postmaster
general in issuing fraud orders"
against publications may be curtailed
is to be made at the convention. Del
egates from the Cincinnati Advertis-
ing Club will ask the convention to
resolve THAT the before mentioned
power, now reposed in the postmaster
general, should be taken from him
and vested in the federal courts, and
that the law comforting the power on
the courts be so framed as to require
that neither the use of the mails nor
the second-cIass mail privileges shall
be taken away until hearing shall
have been accorded the person affect

has yet attained. The Indomitable,
it will be recalled, left Quebec at a
quarter past four on Wednesday after
noon last. Only 16 knots was done
going down the st. Lawrence and
through the estuary. When the west
end of the Straits was reached on
Thursday night thick fog resulted
in the ship easing down to 8 knots,
but after passing through the Straits
of Belle Isle the mist cleared, and the
engines were worked at full speed
They did not reach "a knots until 10

The stokehold sometimes presented
an extraordinary spectacle. The fever

man aboard seemed to think it point
of honor to do his little bit towards
bringing about the desired end, and
thus the Prince and several of his
suite descended into the scorching
heat of the stokehold, and took their
part in filling the skid and shoveling
the fuel into the leaping flames. 1t

Royal Highness did his half hours
work, toiling with other men who,
stripped to the waist, were feeding
the roaring furnaces. When he reach
ed deck after his spell of duty he was

who lent hand in the stokehold were

els Hopwood, and Captain Godfrey

whole suite took part in conveying
coal from the bunkers to the fur

WIN Investigate EIephantiasIs.

Much interest is being taken by the mem
bers of the Medical Society of the Mis-
souri, Valley at its meeting. which Is to
convene in this city today, in the case Of
that rare and remarkable disease, "Ele-
phantiasis.' with which Mrs. E. Nj. NAL
lory of Council Bluffs is afflicted. There
was but one other case of the kline known
to exist IN the United States, that being
with a Mrs. Anna e. Lynch in McKees-
port, Pa, who died July 81 Of the present
year.
Mrs. Lynch had been afflicted with ele-
phantiasis for nineteen years. when first
attacked she was IS years old. She died at
the age of "a years. Before the effects of
the disease were manifested she weighed
about 100 pounds. She was confined to
her home for seventeen years, and for
twelve years before her death could not
leave her bed.
At the time OF her funeral it was stated
that the combined weight of the casket
and body was nearly LOO pounds. The
casket weighed $50 pounds, and was thirty
six inches deep. The largest single grave
ever prepared received the body. II was
five and one-half feet wide and a fraction
over seven feet long. Eighteen pallbearers
were required, and no hearse OF sufficient
size could be found. The disease affected
both lower limbs. The left leg measured
eighty-five inches, or more than seven
feet, in circumference. The right leg was
seventy-six inches In circumference. The
greatest enlargement was below the knees,
and the feet could barely be seen protrud-
ing from the shapeless masses of swollen
flesh.
Mrs. Mallory's case has not yet developed
into any abnormal conditions. nor is she
| wholly without hope that some relief may
yet be found for her. She has become
reconciled to the diagnosis OF her case and
Of it's incurability. She is yet able to get
about with the aid OF a cane. She is a
woman OF refinement, high Christian char
acter and Is highly esteemed in this COM
munity. and It is with the hope of throw
ing some light upon this peculiar disease
and its possible beneficial treatment thai
she has consented to an investigation OF II
by the medical society at its coming meet.

CAPTAIN ANSoN LOSES SUIT
Former Base Hail Manager Ousted
for NOnpayment OF
Rent.

CHICAGO, Sept. 3-Judge Maxwell OF the
municipal court granted Judgment today in
favor of Anna S. Taft, wife OF Charles p.
Taft of Cincinnati, brother of the repub-
lican nominee for the presidency, for pos
session Of the building at 15 Madison
street, occupied by the A. c.. Arson com
rany as a billiard hall. The defendant
company is alleged to be more than a year
in arrears in payment of rent for the
premises.
The business relationship between Mrs.
Taft and Captain Arson has to do with
the base ball history of Chicago. Arson
formerly owned thirty shares of the stock
OF the Chicago National League base
ball club, of which he was formerly man
ager. An agreement was entered into be-
tween Charles p. Taft and Arson whereby
the latter was given possession OF the
Madison street building. To secure Taft
against loss in event of the billiard hall
venture not proving a success, Arson
transferred to Taft the shares in the base
ball, planning, it is said, to redeem them.
This he is alleged never to have done, and
1t was through his failure to do SO that
Charles w. Murphy, an employee OF Taft,
was sent to Chicago to assume the. man.

saulted Miss Lizzie Agee. a white girl
at Des Moines. yesterday, is now confined
in a solitary cell in the county jail here.
The girl positively identified him. A mob
was being formed. and trouble being
feared a deputy sheriff took the negro
out the back door of the Polk county
Jail, secured a cab, and rushed for the
interurban station and slipped into Boone
at 9 o'clock. He inquired for the sheriffs
office, and the man who was asked the
question feared sluggers and ran to a po-
liceman, who arrested both the deputy
sheriff and his prisoner. The story then
leaked out at headquarters, the man was
placed in a cab and rushed to the county
Jail and kept out of sight. No trouble is
feared here.
