DEBILITY OF TEN
CAUSES SC|AT|CA
And 1t Is Necessary to Restore
the General Health Before
the Sciatic Pains VIII


The reason that sciatica go often re-
ours after the ordinary treatment is not
because it is incurable but because these
treatments fail to remove its cause
Sciatica IL form OF neuralgia and has
been correctly called the cry OF the starry
ed nerves for better blood Its most
common cause is debility In every case
OF sciatica it will be found that the gen.
eral health Is run down and that conse-
quently the nerves are not receiving
sufficient nourishment.
DR.. Williams Pink Pills afford the
most effective treatment for sciatica and
neuralgia. They build up the general
health and fully nourish the underied
nerves in the only possible way by build
ing up and purifying the blood.
Mrs. j. W. Rapp, of R. F. D. No. l,
South Omaha, Neb., says:
Several years ago was sufferer from
sciatica which followed general rum
down condition and exposure to wet and
dampness. The pains started in my
hands, which had sort of pricking sem
sation like needles were being thrust into
them. As the disease grew worse the joints
of my fingers became. affected. They
were swollen and were go painful that
could hardly bear it. Gradually the dis
ease began to affect my limbs in the
same manner. They became terribly swol-
len and / had to give up my work. The
pains then spread all over my body and
were sharp and shooting. They would
suddenly shift from one part of the body
to another but fortunately did not seem
to affect my heart. For three months I
was propped up in chair and had to be
waited on. l could not get any sleep and
was losing flesh all of the time.
The doctor treated me for long
time but did not give much relief as
the pains were as severe as ever when
quit taking his medicine DIR. Williams
Pink Pills were brought to my notice
while reading booklet and l made up
my mind to give them trial The swell
ling soon went down and the pains were
less severe. was so encouraged that /
kept on with the treatment until cured. !"

He'll Never Come Back.

Ida Grove Pioneer. Mrs. Harvey
Higgins, near Carnarvon, saw a tramp
sneak down into her basement one
day last week. Grabbing the shotgun
she entered the cellar by another
route, and just another second later
tramp hit the top step of the stairs
going south at the rate of 127 miles
an hour. Mrs. Higgins ran the fellow
a quarter of mile till he was off
the farm, and then banged both bar
rels at him when she was sure he was
beyond range.

Cures Pimples Quickly
Simple Remedy That Clears Skin
Quickly Of all Eruptions.

FOR several weeks past Bowditch, Web
ster e. Co. have done the biggest busi-
ness they ever had in any one article In
selling Hokara, the skin food that has
won so any friends in Augusta
4 It has been found to be an absolute
cure not only for all minor skin trou-
bles, such as pimples. blackheads, herpes,
acne, scaly scalp. complexion blemishes,
itching feet. piles etc. but for the worst
sores, ulcers, or even chronic eczema and
salt rheum. There has yet to be found
any form of wound or disease affecting
the skin or mucous membrane that Ho-
kara does not heal and its action is SO
instantaneous that those who try it are
simply delighted with it right from the
start.
In spite of its unusual curative powers.
the price is trifling. To convince every
one Of it's merits. Bowditch, Webster &
Co will sell a liberal-sized Jar for 25c
larger size soc. And remember that If
YOU do not think it does what it claims,
you get your money back. You certainly
can afford to try it on this plan.
II the skin disease is caused by impure
blood, or il the bowels are inactive, use
Hokara Blood tablets. They cool and
cleanse the blood and regulate the bowels
in a natural way.
GARDINER agent for Hokara is
Jackson Bros. who sell it under guar
5antee.

Qulet still characterizes most lines

les. Foreign trade shows up larger
for the fiscal year than in 1909, a re-
suit of record imports and increased
exports of manufactured goods and
cotton offsetting smaller shipments
of food stuffs.
The labor situation is rather more
disturbed owing to strikes of clothing
makers at New York and the threats
of strikes for higher wages on the
Pennsylvania system east and west
The commodity price situation is 9
mixed one. Old crop cotton has moved

have receded. crop damage talk has
made for higher prices for linseed and
hay. On the other hand, potatr
prices are claimed too low to warrant

Both crude and finished iron and steel

Altogether, the general trade and in

SOURCE OF RUBBER.
Some of the Plants That Produce 1t,
and Relative Value.

Probably very few of those who
have gone mad on rubber shares know
that the number of plans producing
rubber is considerable and that they
differ very materially in their relative
value i'm the production of rubber for
commercial purposes.
The most important of these is
Hevea brasiliensis. Il tree attaining to
a considerable height and belonging to
the natural order Euphorhiareae This
is the source of Para rubber. which
has long held commanding position
in British markets.
Ranking next in Importance is the
well-known F'iscus electica. which be-
longs to the natural order Uduticaceae
and produces the Assam rubber Ian
dolphias. woody climbers. belonging to
the natural order Apocynaceae. yield
the African rubbers. ard Sapium bi-
bIandulosum. belonging to Euphorbi-
aceae, produces the Colombian rubber
Kickxia afrcana is the source of the
Lagos rubber.
Para rubber is obtained from sew
eral species OF hevea, but by far the
most important of them is II. brasil
liensis. This species is widely dis
tributed in South America, and. with
other members of the genus, is
strongly represented in the region
drained by the mighty Amazon and its
tributaries.
The town OF Para. the center Of the
rubber industry of the Amazon. is or
the River Guiana. about ~ miles from
the sea but the Para district extends
over large region to the south and
west Throughout this and the for
ests of Central and Northern Brazil
rubber trees are abundant.
Rather more than thirty years age
the suitability of Hevea brasiliensis
for cultivation in India was recognized
and strenuous efforts were mad to in
troduce the tree into Ccylon and other
parts of our Eastern possessions in
sufficient numbers to carry out expert
ments on a large scale.
The difficulties were considerable
but they were eventually surmOunted
and there are now large areas Of rub
ber trees that are giving an ample re-
turn. Under favorable conditions
the trees grow with great rapidity
and it is recorded that rubber trees
planted at the Henaratgoda garden
Ceylon, have attained height of 50
feet and a girth of two feet in six
years.
Ffcus elastica. the india rubber
plant" of gardens and the source of
Assam rubber, is of course well
known. When growing in it's native
habitat and under cultivation where
il has sufficient space for it's full de-
velopment, it presents very different
appearance from the largest OF the
specimens that may be met with under
glass in this country.
