Physicians are not of one mind
on the subject but the highest
authorities hold that rheumatism
IS a disease of the blood. All
admit that in attacks of rheuma-
tism there is a marked and rapid
thinning of the blood. This is a
condition that a treatment with
DR.. Williams Pink Pills at once
arrests and corrects. The thin
blood is enriched, the strength
ened organs OF the body throw
off the poisonous impurities and
the patient gets we'll.
With the fact in mind that the
rheumatism is in the blood, it
will readily be seen how useless it
is to try TO cure it by rubbing
linlments on the skin. External
applications may give temporary
relief from pain but to cure rhcu-
matlsm YOU must treat 1t through
the blood. DR.. Williams Pink
Pills have cured hundreds Of cases
Of rheumatism and no sufferer
should allow any prejudice to
stand in the way Of giving these
pills thorough trial.

all druggists, or will be mailed. post

Evoke Applause.

Following competitive drills between the
twelve companies of the High School Ca
diets yesterday and this afternoon at the
American League Base Ball Park the
climax of the military school year will
be reached late this afternoon, when. on
the decision of three experts in company
maneuvers, one of the companies will be
awarded the drill championship for the
year.
When the time comes the adjutant will
step from the board of judges, walk along
the front of the regiment and order the
captain of one of the companies to march
to the front with his men. Then Capt.
James F. Oyster, president Of the board
Of education, will present the flag which
has been a coveted possession for years
to the winning company, the jeweled Alli-
son Nailor medal will be pinned on the
coat of the captain and a red ribbon of
victory will be fastened on the breast of
every man in that proud aggregation.

it is the general opinion of all who have
witnessed the drills of the several COM

well feel proud of his work. and every
company can rest assured that it made
the winners approach closely to perfec-
ton in executing the movements required
by the judges.
The six companies which marched
across the base ball field at American
League Park yesterday had the inspira-

Cheers and shouts broke from a thousand
throats at the approach of every COM

coupled with the cheering and the ap-
plause was the waving of many banners
in a riot of enthusiasm.
When the three companies of the Cen

dark blue and gray pennants were much
in evidence, seeming to form an undulatinS
mass combining the two colOTs, in the

RED CROSS STAMP EXHIBIT

CoRAN ART GALLERY.
Contest for Cash Prizes Brings 1,2OO
Different Ideas Now on
Public View.

The Corcoran Gallery of Art is the
scene of a unique exhibition in which
the public is showing commendable m
terest. Displayed in the hemicycle are
more than 1,2OO different designs of the
Christmas stamp of 1909 of the American
National Red Cross.
The public exhibition began at 10 o'clock
this morning, with good attendance, and
will continue until Saturday afternoon at

These designs are submitted In compe-
tition for thirteen prizes and constitute
a remarkable collection of artistic IDEAS.
They come from all parts Of the coun-
try, including the far-off territory OF Ha-
wai.
Some Of the best designers OF the Cniteo
States are reDreSented in the collectioHs.
Probably the majority of the designs are
from amateurs. Many evidently are lhe
work of youthful enthusiasts.

visit the exhibition Friday afternoon and
that other prominent officials and civilians
will be present during the remainder Of
the week.
The proceeds Of the sale Of these Christ
mas stamps are used by the Red Cross
in its fight against tuberculosis. The
movement has already met with great
popular favor and considerable financial
success
Last year over 15,00O,0O0 stamps were
sold, with a net profit of $13S,OO. Better
results are promised for the present year.
Although the stamps are designed for the
