SHERIFFS START FIGHT ON
JURY COMMISSION BILL
Hearing May Be Held on Mon
day Afternoon.

TRENTON, n. J., Feb. 21.-Sheriff
\. Peter Wedin. of Hudson, has,
with a number of other sheriffs begun
a systematic and determined attack
upon the bill of Assemblyman Zisgen
to allow the Governor to appoint jury
commissions of two members for each
county. Among the other sheriffs
who arrived to aid Wedin were Sher-
ifs Allen, of Gloucester; Jordan. Of
Burlington. and Holcombe Of Hun
terdon, all Democrats.
These officials joined in a request of
Majority Leader Egan for a hearing
on the Zisgen bill before it is re-
ported. The hearing may take place
Monday afternoon.
At this hearing will be heard the
protests of representative citizens who
did not appear at the recent hear
ing.
Sheriff wedin gave out this state
ment:
THE zisgen bin is a scandaldus
bill [ can hardly believe that it has
the sanction of the Governor and the
Democratic legislators or any con-
siderable number of them. 1t is a
bill. which if passed, would make It
impossible for the people in Hudson
County to elect a single Democrat to
any office next fall. It would prac-
tically kill the party in Hudson

CURES RHEUMATISM
Quickly Eases Stiff, Sore, Swollen
Joints and Muscles-DriVeS
Rheumatic Pains Away

IT is needless to suffer any longer
with rheumatism, and be all crippled
I'D. and bent out of shape with its
heart-wrenching pains, when you can
easily avoid it.
Rheumatism comes from weak, in
active kidneys, that fail to filter from
the blood, the poisonous waste mat
fer and uric acid; and it is useless to
rub on liniments or take ordinary
remedies to relieve the pain. This
only prolongs the misery and can't
possibly cure you.
The only way to cure rheumatism
Is to remove the cause. The new dis
covery. Croxone, does. this because
IT neutralizes and dissolves the
poisonous substances and uric acid
that lodge in the joints and muscles,
to scratch and irritate and cause
rheumatism, and cleans out and
STRENGTHENS the stopped-up, inactive
kidneys, so they can filter the poison
from the bloody and drive it on and
out of the system.
C,roxone Is the most wonderful
medicine ever made for curing chronic
rheumatism, kidney troubles, and
different from all other remedies.
There is nothing else on earth like ii.
II matters not how old you are, or
how long you have suffered, it is
practically impossible to take it into
the human system without results.
You will find relief from the first few
doses. and you will be surprised how
quickly all your misery and suffering
will end.
An original package of Croxone
costs but a trifle at any first class
drug store, such as that of Union
Drug and Manufacturing Company.
All druggists are authorized to sell Il
on a positive money-back guarantee.
Three doses day for a few days is
often all that is ever needed to cure
the worst baekache or overcome uri-
nary disorders.

Then it is true! I'd heard that

Yes. you are right, we must forget
that / came here today"
While she was speaking she had
moved toward the door, and instinct
lively he had stepped past her to
open it. When he turned with his
hand on the knob il brought them
again face to face. The smile had
left her lips. they were mere delicate
lines of color She raised herself on
tiptoe and her face, gray-white. was
very close to his.
What a fool you are, Jack, what
a coward you must be-" and she
struck him on the cheek with her
gloved hand you are a coward"
she cried.
His face grew as white as her
own, and he did not trust himself to
speak. She gave him a last con-
temptuous glance and drew her veil.
Now open the door" she said in
solently.
He did so. and she brushed past
him swiftly and stepped out into the
long hall. For a moment North
stood staring after her, and then he
closed the door.
