of Arizona who have come to Los An

tied the headquarters was told that al
thermometers sold in Phoenix are
graded as follows: Blood heat, fever
heat, Sheol, Gehenna and Phoenix. 1t
might be added that the Hassayampa
club derives it's name from an old In

drink of the waters of the Hassayampa
river will return to drink of them again
and will ever afterward find 1t difficult
to tell the truth.

.INFLAMMATORY
 RHEUMATISM
Most Treatments Are Unsatis. factory but pr. Williams Pink Pills Have Cured So Many Stubborn Cases
 That They Com.
 mand q Trial.

It is unnecessary to tell the sufferer from inffammatory rheumatism that the ordinary treatments for this dis ease are unsatisfactory. Physicians are not of one mind on the subject. but the highest authori- ties hold that rheumatism is a disease of the blood. All admit that in attacks of attenuation there is a marked and rapid thinning of the blood. This Is q condition that a treatment with pr. Wiliiams's Pink Pills at once arrests and corrects. The thin blood Is en- riched. the strengthened organs of the body throw of the poisonous impuri- ties and the patient gets well.
 The one impressive fact is that while most treatments for rheumatism are experimental Dr. Williams Pink Pills that their beneficial action in this dis ease is as certain as anything in med icine.
 Mir. John F. crichton. retired gro- cer, of 1887 Fulton Street, Chicago. H., and a veteran of the Civil War. in which he served as a member of Go. A, 14lth Illinois Infantry. bears wit ness to this truth. He says:
 T was afflicted with innammatory rheumatism for twenty years and had received only temporary relief from the doctors. About three years ago was helpless in bed with it. I could not use either hand or foot for over two months and suffered intense pain. My limbs were swollen and I could not move at all without great pain. had sleepiess nights and thought would never be able to set around again. My friends and comrades thought was going to die.
 T had paid out . lot of money in doctors bills, but was not cured. One day an old war comrade urged me to try pr. Williams Pink Pills as he knew of cases they had cured. Be- fore I had taken them a great while, was feeling much better I improv- ed rapidly and was able to get out of bed and move around. am now In perfect health and have not had q touch of rheumatism in any part of my body since"
 With the fact in mind that the rheu- matisn Is in the blood. it will readily be seen how useless 1t is to try to cure 1t by rubbing liniments on the skin, External applications may give tenn paFary relief from pain but to cure rheumatism you must treat 1t through the blood pr. Williams Pink Pills have cured more cases of rheumatism than any other prescription and no suf- fsrer should allow any prejudice to stand in the way of giving these pills thorough trial
 Dr.. Williams Pink Pills are sold by ali druggists, or will be mailed, post paid on receipt of price, 50 cents per hex; six boxes for a2.S0, by the Dr.

 The new organization has as yet elected no officers and the first business to come up at the initial meeting We'd nesday afternoon will be the election of officers for the ensuing year.
 At o'clock Wednesday evening Rev. J. O. Reavis. D, D., of Nashville, Tenn, coz ordinate secretary of Foreign Mis- sions will deliver a lecture. at the con- clusion of which the visiting delegates will be rendered a reception In the Sur. {. day School room of the First Presby. teriAn Church.
 At II o'clock Thursday morning there will be a lecture by Miss " G. Lee. medical missionary to china.
 The convention. which will. bring a great number of delegates to this city. will probably adjourn Thursday after noon.
