Bud Haines paused. Again he thought
over Langdon's offer. Its genuineness
appealed to him. Suddenly there dawn
ed on him an idea Of just what 1t
might mean to be associated with this
honest old citizen who had asked for
his help-who needed 1t, as Haines
knew only too well. He would be the

politicians who desired to increase
their influence with the press. Some
times the salary offered had been large,

Haines turned to see handsomely
powned young woman who had the
stamp Of patrician's daughter In her
bearing and her countenance-a bru-
nette, with delicate features, though
determination shone in her eyes and
appeared In the self contained poise OF
her head. She was the imperious type
of beauty and suggested to Haines the
dry point etchings Of Paul Helleu. He
instinctively conceived her to be In
tensely ambitious, and OF this Halnes
was soon to have unexpected evidence.
Gazing at her with sense OF grow
ing admiration, Haines gave an fnvol-
untary start as Senator Langdon
spoke:
"My daughter, Miss Carolina Lang

Carolina was interested.
"Are you the newspaper man who Is

The correspondent bowed.

that Hope Georgia was somewhat an

Do you have to spit often?
Do crusts form in your nose?
Are you worse in damp weather?
Do you blow your nose a great deal?
Are you losing your sense of smell?
Does your mouth taste bad morn

CURE YOUR
RHEUMATISM
AT HOME
A Michigan Veteran Tells How
He Was Permanently Cured
Of Severe Case.
Of a Severe Case.

Every sufferer from rheumatism wants
to be cured and to stay cured.
The prospect of the return of the same
old rheumatism every year is not at
tractlve to anybody who has gone
through one siege. Most treatments
aim simply to keep down" the rheu-
matlc poisons in the blood. The tonic
treatment with DR. Williams Pink Pills
has proved by hundreds of cures that
it builds up the blood to point that
enables it to cast out these poisons
through the regular channels of excre-
ton, the bowels, kidneys and the skin.
When this is done the rheumatism is per-
manently cured and as long as the blood
is kept pure and rich the patient will be
immune from attacks of rheumatism.
Mr.. David McCarty, farmer and for
merly postmaster, of Chaplin, Mich, is a
veteran of the Civil war, having served
in Co. B, 14th Michigan Volunteer In
fantry. He says:
"For over a year had rheumatism so
badly that / couldn't turn over in bed
There were sharp pains through my hips
and left side, which would catch me so
quickly that it often seemed as though
my back would break. My appetite
was very poor and my kidneys were
affected 1 could not lie on my back
but would have to be propped up in bed
on my right side.
1.-The doctors gave me but little help,
for the trouble always came back as
severely as ever. Tread about DR. Will
liams' Pink Pills and after taking few
boxes felt much better. The pain was
not so bad and / could eat and sleep
better. gave the pills good trial and
have never had return of the trouble. -
If you are suffering from rheumatism
in any form and find that the treatment
you are taking does not relieve you, OF
| if you are actually getting worse while
taking other treatment, then do not
delay but give DR.. Williams Pink Pills
thorough trial The remedy that cures
others will cure you.

Blood" containing more information
