You are crippled with Rheumatism

perience no relief Do you know what

1t will cure you as it has cured thous-
ands of others who have used the remedy
as recommended. Uric.O is an internal
blood treatment for Rheumatism only,
and by its direct action on the blood,
muscles and kidneys, it neutralizes the
Uric acid poison, expelling it from the
system. Physicians will tell you it is
the only way that this dreaded disease
can be cured. IL sounds reasonable, and
if you will commence Uric o treat

A HAPPY NEW YEAR.


Thou art gone, Old Year. and once more we
stand,
with open door and with outstretched hand.
To welcome a New Year with paths untrod.
All fresh and lovely-a gift from God.
The Old Year was good but its days are past.
And, with kind farewells to the very last,
We have turned to greet, in a blithesome
way,
The New Years joys and its first glad day.
All, think OF all that the year may hold
Its possible gladness and joys untold,
In the winter days with their clear. keen
air,
Or when springtime fragrance Is every
where.
Today we are happy and glad and gay.
And though Sorrow may wait for us on the
way,
wewill not watch for its shadows cold.
But meet them with faith and courage bold.
And, II, ere the New Year its race hath run,
Our life on this earthly sphere is done,
Then this year for us shall be truly blest,
II we enter in peace the eternal rest.

Restoring House Rule.

Thirty-one Republicans are willing to
Join with the Democrats of the House of
Representatives to amend the rifles for
the purpose of curbing the speakers des-
potic power. The amendments agreed
upon by the insurgent Republicans cover
all the points of abuse to which the
World has directed attention. They in
clude these fundamental reforms
/. The nomination of committees by
a committee of the House instead of by
the speaker.
2. The setting apart of one day in the
week when members may call bills from
the calendar for action without asking
the speakers permission.
3. The selection of the committee on
rules by the House committee on COM
mittees.
4. The election of its chairman by
each committee.
The amendments are not directed
against Speaker Cannon, but against the
tyranny of the speakership. They are
conservative and reasonable. Their
adoption would substitute House rule
for speaker rule and would restore free
debate and deliberation to House pro-
ceedings.
The change of thirty.one votes from
the Republican to the Democratic side
will give the reform element a majority
of four. But there should be no ques-
ton of support for such desirable
changes. The majority in favor of them
should be Overwhelmingly World.
