TIE ONLY PERMANENT CURE

No case of Rheumatism was evet
cured except by thorough purifca,
ton of the blood; just as long as the
blood remains charged with fer1nent-
ing uric acid poison, the painful dis
ease will continue. The pains and
aches of Rheumatism are simply SUI
perfcial effects Of the impurities in
the circulation, and sometimes may
be temporarily relieved by the appli-
cation of plasters, lininents, hot
cloths, etc. But the person who tri1es
with this dangerous disease by de-
pending on local treatment alone, is
certain to pay for the mistake with
constant suffering later on. S. S. S..

is possible to cure the disease. 1t

Coroner Frazer was called on Tues
day to investigate the death OF Thomas
McMahan, II years old, Civil War
veteran, long resident of the Pleas
ant Hill section. who lived with his
wife on small farm on the Elkton-
Blue Ball road Slater Carhart called
at the home on Tuesday morning, and
trying the door. after rapping several
times. found it unlocked Entering the
house, he found the body of the aged
farmer lying on the kitchen floor,
frozen stiff. Nearby lay his wife in
her night clothing and almost ex-
hausted. Her husband wore two pairs
Of stockings, of which those on one
foot had been partially burned. The
floor of the kitchen had been charred
in places 1t looked as if Mr.. Nc
Mshan had while kindling the fire, set
the floor ablaze and was overcome
while trying to control the flames, dy-
ing OF heart trouble. DR.. c. P. Car
rico concluded that such. coupled with
exposure, was the cause of death Mrs.
McMahan. who had not recovered srf-
ficiently to talk about the matter,
probably went to her husbands aid
and was overcome bv exposure. The
dead man was born in Ireland. He
served in the Civil War and was a
pensioner. 1894 was found in the
dwelling. The couples daughter, Mrs.
Mary Collins, is caring for her mother,

brought bv his sisters to ejcef hin
from the occupancy Of house sand
four acres Of ground on the Shady
Beach farm near North East. owned
BY his father, the late DelspIaine Ne
Daniel.
Joseph L. Mcdaniel claims that Ilis
father put him in possession Of the
premises by gift in 1866; that he spent
5000 on improving the property and
occupied it undisturbed FOR more than
twenty years The gift, however, Is
not matter Of record. His sisters
claim title to the whole OF Shady
Beach upwards OF 1900 acres, BY deed
Of gift from their father, in 1884, to
their mother and themselves, for life,
with remainder to the grantor's grand
children. They further claim that JOS
eph L. Mcdaniel never had any title to
the premises he occupies, but OF late
years holds them under lease. at =
rental OF 81 per annum, terlninabEe at
short notice. He alleges that the lease
was framed to further a possible sale
of the entire property. He was served
with notice to quit in 1907. and upon
his refusal. suit was brought to eject
him, which suit was restrained BY in-
junction. which he wishes continued
until trustee, to be appointed by the
Court, confirm him in his title, so that
he may defend the suit.
Messrs. Clayton and Haines for the
petitioners, argued that as the matter
at issue hinged on a question OF title,
a Court of Equity had no jurisdiction.
Messrs. W. S. Evans and Albert Con-
stable contended that Mr.. Mcdaniel
was entitled to the relief prayed for.
The Court held the matter for con-
sideration of the points raised and au-
thorities cited.
Delaplaine Mcdaniel, late owner Of
Shady Beach, was president OF the
Mcdaniel & Harvey and the McCul-
lough Iron Companies, and man Of
