FOR SCIATIC
RHEUMATISM
Try the Treatment That Cured
This Pronounced Case in
Minneapolis After Other
treatments Failed.

Sciatica is neuralgia of the sciatic
nerve. Its origin is generally rheu-
matte and is the direct result of taking
cold. For this reason the disease Is
commonly known as "sciatic rheuma-
tism." That DIR. Williams Pink Pills
cure this disease is shown by numerous
cases like that of Mrs. ]. B. Hansen, of
No. 221 Twentieth Ave, So, Minnea-
polls, Mimi. She says:
A few years ago following an attack
of the grip was taken with sciatica.
For six years I suffered untold agony
and thought it would be blessing to
me if / could only die. There were
sharp, shooting pains in both of my
limbs and my shoulders and arms were
affected also but not so severely. If I
moved about quickly, the pain would
catch me 80 that had to scream. My
limbs would swell until l could hardly
walk. I also had a terrible dull pain
in my back which was often unbear-
able. 1 was confined tobed for week
or two at time. While suffering from
the sciatica / was further rundown by
weakness common to women Of my age.

Weather Is Decidedly Hot at Capital

have the afternoon. All, then it is hot.

That's the sort of day It was. The

attempting to be unconscious of his
swinging doors on the other side Of

port, most cooling beverages may be

The visitor noticed a tiny wagon.
1t was much after the order of the
old fashioned hickey pokey" cart. 1t
drew up to the curbing. On the cart
was the legend:
Fried Cakes!"
One can scarcely imagine the effect
Of that sign unless it has confronted
one through the quivering heat waves
of Washington. Visions of sputtering
lard and scorching grease! The heat
grew suffooating.
The walker staggered on. Came
then another cart, fashioned in the
manner of the first. A sign on its
side proclaimed:

The visitors grew dry The heat
seemed to increase. But that was the
error of a heat prosecuted mind. AS
he swayed there, around the corner
came a third wagon. On it was a
third sign:
Hot Sausage!"
With wild and despairing yell the
Washington visitor turned and fed
through convenient swinging door.

high culture and an admirable public
and private character.
Not single Catholic asked for the
appointment of Rev. John Maher, but
on the contrary every man who recon-
mended his appointment was a Protest
ant of high standing in the religious,
business, social and civic life of the
state. No Catholic or Jew, insofar as I
recall, has ever protested against the
appointment of a Protestant on account
of religious faith
There are two qualifications required
for man on the State Text Book COM
mission. One is integrity and the other
educational ability. Rev. John Maher
possesses these qualifications in the
highest degree. He is a man of fine
scholarship, ripe experience along edu-
cational lines, high personal and civic
ideals, great personal integrity and a
nobility of soul and character that has
impressed itself upon everybody who
have had relations with him. Out of
the nine members of the State Text
Book Commission, eight are members
in high standing, of Protestant churches
of various denominations, and I will
guarantee that after the work of this
Commission is finished, every one Of
them will have nothing but words of
praise for the fidelity and ability of
Rev. John Maher.
Very truly yours,

Governor Stubs is proud of his APP

criticism of an Ellis man on this APP
pointment. The governor writes a
strong letter on the evils of religious
interference in reply to the Protest

ment as follows:
Mr.. H. NJ. Kingsley, Ellis, Kan.
Dear Sir: I am in receipt of your
letter of recent date in which you ex-
press your opinion "as a tax payer"
that no Catholic should be appointed
to public office in Kansas; and also
protesting against the appointment of
Rev. John Maher as a member of the
state text book commission
Answering your letter, permit me
to say that I do not agree with your
views in this matter and sincerely trust
that I shall never live to see the in
tolerable day when Kansas, a state
dedicated to human freedom, when
men shall-on account or their rell-
gious views-be denied the pledge and
promise of our state conStllulloh'
