Prof. Budlong was Quickly Relieved of
Both Affections by Using Rheumatism.
If you suffer from any form Of
Rhematism, remember that RHEUMA
goes to work quickly to remove the
cause, not simply to relieve the dis
tress. Many years use has demon
s'rated that it goes to the seat of the
disease and expels the poisonous
matter through the natural chapnels-
the kidneys, bowels, liver and skin.
"For many years 1 was troubled
with rheumatism, also with Bright's
Disease of the Kidneys. I suffs red
awfully. Tried many advertised
remedies. After using your truly
remarkable preparation, RHUEMA,
I was fully cured" = Prof. @. j.

The obstacle to elimination of these

| suppose it will not be questioned
that every one desires physical COM
fort and pleasure which are the nom
committants of health. Equally, l
think, the truth of the statements as
to its economy and value to the indi-
ividual and society will be admitted.
Why then, do we collectively, not in
'augurate measures for the promotion
and establishment of conditions which
will insure the greatest of all bless
'ings? The reasons are plain.
The preventive sanitary phases of
hygiene are of recent development.
They depend largely on the truths re-
,vealed by the microscope. With the
majority Seeing is believing" The
tiny heterogeneous which can not
be seen by the naked eye, have no
place in the consciousness Of the igno-
rant, or those who are not familiar
with the truths OF bacteriology. 1t is
difficult to believe that the lear lim-
pid water from a maintain stream
may be teeming with malignant ty-
iphoid germs; yet, it is in these rural
regions where the disease often pre-
walls.
The value of forests and mines and
lands is apparent to all, but health be-
comes appreciated only when endan-
gered. Its possession seems a mere
matter Of course.
The curative agents of diseases
not being comprehended, naturally,
propagating agencies are not under
stood. That dirt and disease are CO.
existent is obvious to the sanitarian
who knows the relation of cause and
effect, but to many people dirt is SIM
ply undesirable, not menace to
health.
Indifference to new principles and
prejudice have their roots in mis-
understanding of values. Opposed to
hygienic reform, also, are the force Of
habit and conviction-with some al
most religious belief-it is a part Of
the divine economy that we "eat a

PEOPLE TO ELECT

BY DIRECT ELECTIONS
SUFFICIENT NUMBER STATES
RATIFY CONSTITUTIONAL
AMENDMENT.

Washington, April 10. Direct elec-
ton Of United States senator's by the
people was authorized and made COM
pulsory yesterday, when the Connecti-
cut legislature ratified the constitu-
tional amendment submitted by con-
gress less than year ago. Ratifca-
ton already had been given by IS
states. .'f
The situation that results through
out the country where many legisla-
lures have adjourned until 1915 is
such as to .gleave confusion in the
mind of members of the senate, as to
how the early steps toward direct
election of senator's will be carried
out.
While the proclamation of the sec
rotary of state, announcing final rati-
fication of the amendmemnt by sc
states is required by law, Senators
Bristow and Borah, leaders in the d.
rect elections fight in congress, ex-
pressed the opinion yesterday that the
amendment is for all practical pur-
poses now a part of the constitution.
ANY man who may be elected to
The senate hereafter, must be elected
directly" said Senator Borah.
The new amendment gives to the
state legislatures, however, the right
to prescribe the methods for electing
senators.

Cars not equipped with modern cleo

warmer and add to its efficiency. One
must experiment as to the area to be
covered Usually about One-quarter or
one-third is sufficient.

frightened. Doing this viii often pre-

these Tugs break they are difficult to
