month at time and for two weeks
lying with my legs drawn up with pain.
My suffering was so great that the doc
tor gave me hypodermic injections. The
pain was in both legs from the hips to
the toes and was sharp and singing.
I couldn't sleep nights without binding
my legs tightly with cloths. My appe-
tite was gone and what I ate distressed
me. My stomach felt hard and panied
me.
It was under the care Of one doctor
for two months, Of another for six
months and of another for perhaps
three months. They all, called my trou-

everything that was recommended to
me but nothing gave me relief. 1 then

and got only a little relief from them.
One day an acquaintance gave me a
part of a box of DR.. Williams Pink

a little benefit from them and took
few boxes more and was cured. l have
no rheumatism now, weigh 225 pounds

best medicine on earth.
Dr. Williams Pink Pills do not sim

Claims Company Has $4,000
Cash, $4,000 Merchandise.

Atchison, Kan, May Sc. w. Goe-
bel, who is now in charge of the Atchi-
son refinery of the Uncle Sam Oil COM
panys says that the new parff1n plant
they are going to put in here is a sure
thing and that it will be but a short
time, matter of only a few weeks,
before the work on it is begun. Meth
er one of the other two plants of the
Uncle Sam has a paraffin plant, so
naturally the one here will be a very
large one and will have an enormous
capacity. 1t is said that this new ad-
dition to the plant alone will employ
20 or so men. At the same time that
the work is begun on the parffln plant
the pipe line to Atchison will be con-
tinued. This pipe line runs from the
oil wells in Bartlesville, Ok, and is
now completed as far as Aliceville.
Aliceville is about so miles west of
here. and 1t would not take long to
1t in shape to pump oil to the refinery
here.
1t is also being considered to sell
the refinery at Tulsa, and combine all
efforts to make the reflneries at Atch-
ison and Cherryvale larger.
Although the numerous court trials
the company has been mixed up in
have greatly hindered progress, the
affairs of the Uncle Sam company
seem to be on the eve of a boom, at
least in Atchison. Peter Goebers re-
port of his trusteeship shows that the
company has cash on hand of over
$4,000 and merchandise amounting to
over $4,000. If the company was able

Some Women Look Sloppy.
Beauty and Grace Disappear With the
Growth of Fat

There is nothing so repulsive in A
woman's appearance as an over-deyel-
opment or extreme growth of fat in
any part of the body. A woman's form
is essentially one of grace; the lines of
beauty vanish as fat accumulates and
instead of beauty we see bulk and
what was once fair becomes a fright.

WICHITA HAS A DEFICIT.

Wichita. Kan, May S.-Although
the finance committee of the new city
council has not completed its work, it
has pried far enough into the citys
financial standing to discover that
there is going to be large deficit to
meet at the end of the present year.
Estimates of the probable cost of
the different departments in running
expenses, and the amount of money
necessary during the year for the diff
ferent purposes are now being secured
by the committee, and until these esti-
mates are all received it will be i'm
possible to tell accurately what the
deficit will be, but it is said by the
most conservative persons connected
with the city government that the
deficit will be fully $4,000, and many
estimate that it may run as high as

POLICE COURT NOTES.

The four negroes charged with
loafing on the street corners at Tenth
and the avenue were tried in police
court Thursday evening and a fine
of IS was assessed against each one
of them. This was the first case in
court for this offence and Judge Urmy
said he would let them off easy. The
next offenders will get a double dose.
Officer ENGLAND, who made the ar
rests, testified that the four cor
ners at Tenth and the avenue had be-
come favorite resort at night for a
considerable number of negroes and
that complaints had been made by.
merchants in that vicinity against the
these loafers to keep off the street
corners. All four of the negroes
pleaded not guilty and each testified
in his own behalf. 1t was amusing
to hear these men tell how they had
been imposed on. Three of them had
police arrested them while the fourth
was not there at all. He had been
arrested while walking down the
street. One Of the defendants made
an address to the judge. He said that
his name was Frank w. Hall and that
he was a stranger in the city. He al
ways attended strictly to his own bust
ness. He had always had a consuming
desire to come to Topeka and now
that he had honored the state capital
with his presence ne was treated in
this shabby fashion. He became elo-
quent in the narration of his wrongs
and begged the mercy of the court. He
was asked If he had taken a drink
the night he was arrested. This ques-
ton offended Mr.. Halls dignity and
he let the city attorney know that he
had stepped beyond the bounds of
decency as between two gentlemen.
That's not fair question" he said
reproachfully. "I is a man living
alone and course I might fall down.
1 don't refuse to answer that question
but I'd rather you'd withdraw the
same" AS the prisoner had a pair
of very red eyes that looked as though
they had been picked in alcohol the
city attorney did not feel. that oral
proof was necessary to substantiate
his query, so he kindly withdrew the
question. Frank w. Hall was game
to the last. He argued with the Judge
until he was led away by the I'M
feeling jailer and then he escaped and
tried to soften Chief Eaton's heart
with another appeal He talked un-
ceasingly until he was thrust into his
cell. From now on the police will
watch the street corners and stair
ways and dispense or arrest all idlers
who congregate in such places for any
length of time.
