PAIN IN THE BACK
OFTEN MEANS RHEUMATISM IN
THE BLOOD.
Here 10 a Treatment That 10 Highly
Recommended as a Permanent
CnPa

Most Treatments for rheumatism aim
to keep down" the poison in the blood
and enable nature to cure that particular
attack. Then, when the system be-
comes run down from any cause the
disease again gets the upper hand, and
it all has to be done over.
The tonic treatment with DR.. Will
liams' 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
excretion, the bowels, kidneys and the
skin. When this is done the rheuma-
tism is permanently cured and as the
bloodis kept pure and rich the patient
will be immune from attack Of rheuma-
tism.
Mrs. J. M. Nelson, Of r. F. d. No. 1,
Daingerfeld, Texas, who was cured by
this treatment, says:
s'The starting point of the rheumatism
in my case was cold. 1t became so
much worse that,I was confined to the
bed for a part of the time. For month
/ didn't leave the house and for one
week 7 couldn't sit up. The rheuma-
tism attacked me in the back and the
pains were very severe and constant. In
bad weather the pains would also be in
my limbs My back was SO painful that
couldn't bend over. When walked I
had to use two walking sticks. I couldn't
eat anything that would agree with my
stomach. My heart panied me lot
and the doctors said this was due to
Indigestion.
81 was treated for several weeks by
the doctor but wasn't helped much.
Then an aunt, who had been benefited
by DIR. Williams Pink Pills, urged me
to try them. did so and could see in a
week that they were helping me. In a
short time was able to get up and walk
around. / could bend over and pick
thingsfrom the floor without hurting
my back. From that time the rheuma-
tism hasn't bothered me"
Sufferers from rheumatism in any
form, who have found their condition
unrelieved or actually growing worse
while using ordinary remedies, would
do well to try DR.. Williams Pink Pills.

garding the sudden disappearance of
Rev. Arthur j. Landers, until recently
pastor of the Baptist church at Eagle
Grove, Iowa, but who recently went to
Clinton to become pastor of the First
Baptist church, has been solved by the

body answering in every detail the de-
scription of the missing man was

lake about one-half mile from the sta
ton.
A card bearing the name, the Rev

suil the dead man wore. A gold watch
and 10 cents in change also We're found
in a pocket
The body was taken to Rolston's un-
dertaking rooms at S12 Wabash aven-
ue and the police were notified. From
a close comparison of the description
given by the Clinton, Iowa, police, il
the watch tailed with that worn by thu
minister when he disappeared.
To make the identification positive
a telegram was sent to Clinton and al
answer received saying that friends o
the Rev. Mr.. Landers will arrive il
Chicago today and will be present a
the inquest.
The cause of the death of the MAJ
has not been definitely determined ant
it has been suggested that some mark
which appear on the face and heat
may have been caused by an assailani

supposed cuts are only the result o
the waters action on the body.
Relatives of the minister have EN-
ployed private detectives, who hav
been carrying on a search for him. /

Care in Preparing Food.

In recent years scientists have
proved that the value of food is meas
ured largely by its purity; the re-
suit is the most stringent pure food
laws that have ever been known.
One food that has stood out promi-
nently as a perfectly clean and pure
food and which was as pure before
the enactment of these laws as it
could possibly be is Quaker Oats;
conceded by the experts to be the ideal
food for making strength of muscle
and brain. The best and cheapest of
all foods. The Quaker Oats Company
is the only manufacturer of oatmeal
that has satisfactorily solved the prob
lem of removing the husks and black
specks which are so annoying when
other brands are eaten. If you are
convenient to the store buy the reg
ular size packages; if not near the
store, buy the large size family pack
