1t costs pretty penny to join the metropolitan
club and to pay the dues and to live the life of
the organization The initiation fee at the Cosmos
club is rather small, and the dues are light, but
there are scores of members of the Metropolitan
club, "the club of the nobs" who willingly would
pay twice or thrice the Metropolitans initiation
fee and the Metropotan's dues If the expenditure
could gain them admission to the club where the
'cranks" foregather.

An aching back is instantly
relieved by an application Of
Sloan's Liniment.
This liniment takes the place
of massage and is better than
sticky plasters. 1t penetrates
without rubbing - through
the skin and muscular tissue
right to the bone, quickens the
blood, relieves congestion, and
gives permanent as we'll as
temporary relief.
Here's the Proof.
Mr.. JAMES c. LEE, of 100 9th St.,
Sc, Washington, DC, writes "Thirty
years ago fell from scatfold and serf-
ously injured my back. Isutfered terri
bly, at times; from the small of my back
all around my stomach was just as if
had been beaten with club. ] used
every plaster could get with no relief.
Sloan's Linimcnt took the pain right
out, and | can now do as much ladder
work as any man in the shop, thanks to
