Object to Strong Medicines.

Many people object to taking the
strong medicines usually prescribed
by physicians for rheumatism. There
is no need of internal treatment in
any case of muscular or chronic rheu-
matism, and more than nine out OF
every ten cases of the disease are OF
one or the other of these varieties.

night was too dark or day too stormy
for her not to seek and comfort the
distressed or attend the sick. For
her kindness and benevolence the
Lord granted unto her a long life of
usefulness, and gave her health and
strength far beyond that allotted to
many others. So greatly was she
blessed in this particular, that she
kept house and did her own work
until she was eighty-four years of
age.
For more than seventy FIVE years
she was faithful follower of Christ,
and the advancement of the Church
was her constant desire until she
fell asleep in Jesus.
Impressive funeral services we're
conducted at the residence of her
baby boy, where she died, by Elder
K. M. Wyatt. in the presence of
large assembly of relatives and
friends. His text was Psalms IT.
IS, GAS for me, will behold Thy
face in righteousness shall be salts
fed when l awake with Thy like
ness" This text was selected by
the minister at her request, as it
was one of her favorite passages of
Scripture. After the services we're
concluded, her body was laid at rest
in the Johnson family grave yard.

One Thing we Need.

What this country needs is more
men on the bench like Judge Lands.
OF Chicago. A man Who isn't afraid
to pass sentence on monster cor
poration no more than he would
beggar, who had stolen a loaf Of
bread. There is no doubling the
fact that the larger the litigants
roll, the smaller the punishment
given him, as general rule. But
Lands socked the harpoon into the
Standard Oil octupus TO the tune Of
SIS, OO0, 900, although he had moth
log against the company more than
the enforcement Of Law, and this
proves to the Courier that he is one
man in million with the nerve TO
pronounce sentence in the face Of
such a great array Of legal talent
and SO much money.
Judge Lands recently gave an
accused man the minimum sentence
Of sixty days in the house Of correc-
ton. That, however, is not the in
teresting part Of the story which is in
volved in subsequent proceedings.
From the Chicago Record-Herald
report the following is taken.
The prisoner turned away from
the bench TO the deputy marshal
waiting to take him to jail. He
turned his coat collar up around his
throat.
"Aronson," exclaimed the court
sharply, where's your overcoat1"
"Your honor" said the "white
SLAYER" 81 amt got none. That
was one of the first things l soaked

"Bailif," said the Judge, "get
mine and give it to him. Now gen.
tlemen," he added, turning to the
lawyers, "we'll proceed with the
next case"
An hour later Judge Landiss thin
figure was breasting the breeze that
tore down Dearborn street.
ali. there, Judge" shouted
friend, "where's your overcoat2"
=" ! used it to light fire."
"Used il TO light a fre1"
"Yes," said Judge Lands, al u.s.
ed it to light FIRE to keep warm in
side Of me the spirit Of charity that
life in a great city Chicago tends to
freeze"
And his friend was still gazing at
him in as,onishment when he jumped
on his car.
Would that in every section of our
country-and in every corner of the
world there we're more such fires as
Judge Lands lighted when he gave
his raiment to the poor. A simple
act, indeed, on the part Of this fed
eral judge, but it is Of the kind that
makes the heart beat faster.
