War Upon Pain.

Pain is visitor to every home and
usually it comes quite unexpectedly.
But you are prepared for every emer-
gency if you keep a small bottle of
Sloan's Liniment handy. 1t is the
greatest pain killer ever discovered.
Simply laid on the skin-no rubbing
required--it drives the pain away.
1t is really wonderful.
Mervin H. Soister, Berkeley, Cal,
writes: "Last Saturday, after tramp
ing around the Panama Exposition
with wet feet, came home with my
neck so stiff that I couldn't turn. ap-
piled Sloan's Liniment freely and
went to bed. To my surprise, next
morning the stiffness had almost dis
appeared, four hours after the second
application / was good as now.

 \ Her husband had represented to her that he was a generous man, she tes- tified in the hearing, and she said he told her to buy an elaborate costume and jewe1ry for the wedding, and this cost her $500. This made $6,O0O in all that he owed her, she alleged, but the damages were put at $7,000 to cover any costs and interest that Mrs. TuEn might be entitled to in the event of decision in her favor. While the case was pending she returned to her husbands home, but they did not speak to each other.
 Early yesterday morning, MT. TuIin received a telephone message asking him to hurry to the bedside of his wife at the hospital, as she was dying, He did not go, 1t is said.

 The voices became louder and loud CT, and the crowd outside continued to grow. The hearse and hacks were still waiting. Suddenly Charles Via dra, who was preparing himself for further resistance, collapsed under the strain. His limp form was car ried to the veranda where the crowd on the outside could easily see him. pr. s. s. Levine was called to attend him. He regained consciousness quickly, but was too weak to stand on his feet.
 His brother continued to stand by the body, and no persuasion, either by his step-father or by the friends and relatives who were anxious to see the dead woman buried before sun down, moved him. until MT. Tulin expressed himself in a mood for set tlement.

 He was a 1eper, an outeast, a men ace to mankind, a. creature to be summed. Yet when his spirit left his tortured body, his weeping mother and his devoted father wereb y his side. He could not see them, for the disease that claimed him had destroy aay risk they ran mother and father were faithful to the end.
 That his son, from some mysterious cause had developed Ieprosy, caused the elder Go1dstein's financial ruin and his family ostracism. He kept a small general store in suburban Benton Harbor and he and his fam fly were in comfortable circumstances.
 The whisper. tYoung Go1dstein is a 1eper,' sweI1ed to a cry that ech ped all over Benton Harbor and far be- yond it's limits. Over night Gold stein's little business was ruined; for mer customers hurried by on the other side of the street: former friends sud- denly forgot they had ever known the Go1dsteins. GoIdstein tried to pro- vide for his family by peddHng. As he rudged the roads the frightened warning went ahead of him, s<Here comes the Ieper's father!" All doors were closed to him.
 The local health authorities asked the State of Michigan to care for the feper; the State refused. There is nothing in the health ordinances pro. viding for such a case The Univer- sfty of Michigan was ready to furnish isolated quarters for young GoIdsteiE so it's medical students might observe the progress of the disease, but AnI Arbor emphatica1Iy refused to admit { 9eper within her confines
