MAKES RHEUMATISM
PROMPTLY DISAPPEAR
Chronic, Crippled-up Sufferers
Find Relief After Few Doses
of New Remedy Are
Taken

1t is needless to suffer any longer
with rheumatism, and be all crippled
up, and bent out of shape with its
heart-wrenching pains, when you can
surely avoid it.
rheumatism comes from weak, in
active kidneys, that fail to filter from
the blood the poisonous waste matter
and uric acid; and it is useless to rub
on liniments or take ordinary reme-
dies to relieve the pain. This only pro-
longs the misery and can't possibly
cure you.
The only way to cure rheumatism is
to remove the cause. The new discov-
cry, Croxone, does this because 1t neu-
tralizes and dissolves all 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 all the poisons from the
blood and drive it on and out Of the
system.
Croxone is the most wonderful
medicine ever made for curing chronic
rheumatism. kidney troubles and blad-
der disorders. You will find it differ
ent from all other remedies. There is
nothing else on earth like it. 1t mat
ters not how old you are, or how long
you have suffered, it Is practically i'm
possible to take 1t into the human sys-
tenn 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. All druggists are authorized to
sell it on positive money-back guar
antee. Three doses a day for few
days is often all that is ever needed to
cure the worst backache or overcome

Galesburg, ILL.,, Girl, Is
Years Old, Facing Shame,
Murders Her Mother

Galesburg, ILL.,, Jan. 20.-New light
on the part alleged to have been
played by 15-year-old Julia Flake in
the killing of her mother, was thrown
on the case to-day by relatives of the
girl, who charged Robert Higgins, her
stepfather, with a grave offense
against the girl.
According to these relatives, the
girl was driven frantic by the lapse
Of time which brought no solution to
her crushing problem and pointed in
evitably to the day when the public
must of necessity know of her plight
Higgins likewise was desperate. for
his wife, too, was in delicate con-
dition. In the confessions attributed
to them Julia and Higgins admitted
intimacy since last May.
To the desperation Of her situation
the relatives attribute the apparently
callous appeal for the murder of her
mother which appears in two letters
said to have been written by the girl

MERCHANTS FAVOR
SUNDAY BLUE LAWS
Chief Of Police Severely Crit
cised; Want Higher
Vendor License

At meeting of the Merchants AS
sociation in the G. A. r. hall las'
evening Chief Hiram p. Longnaker's
police department was severely criti-
cised and plans for securing the pas
sage of an ordinance calling Tor
higher license for street venders were
| formulated. The association went on
record as favoring the enforcement OF
| the Sunday blue laws" and the gen.
eral closing Of all places of business
on Sunday.
Burgess Fred Wigfield WAS present
at last evenings meeting and reiterat-
ed to the merchants his statement
made when he took charge or the po-
lice department, that the police either
had to make good or get out, anc
promised the merchants that he would
rigidly enforce every law.
The question of securing from coun,
ellis an ordinance compelling street
venders to pay a, higher license TOOK
| up the greater part Of the evening
| 1t was during this discussion that the
police department came in for q lo'
of criticism. Several members or the
association charged that the police
didn't enforce the present ordinance
governing street peddling and assert
| ed that several wagons were known tc
| be making rounds of the town under
one license.
| Secretary w. II. Whitebread In
speaking Of this negligence of the po-
| lice this morning said THE police can
surely see these things are going on
and should stop them"
President B. f. McNear was au-
thorized to appoint committee from
the association to meet with councils
! to see whether or not that body can
not be induced to pass an ordinance
raising the license fee for street ven-
ders to $40.
This same committee will also con
fer with committee from the recent
ly organized Good Citizenship League
to see what can be done to secure the
enforcement of the Sunday bluf
Iaws.'' 1t was the unanimous senti'
ment of the members present at las
evenings meeting of the Merchants
Association that every place or busl
ness should close on Sunday.
