Some Forms of Rheumatism Durable

Rheumatism is disease charact-
erized by pains in the joints and in
the muscles. The most common
forms are: acute and chronic rheu-
matism, rheumatic headaches, sciat-
ic rheumatism and lumbago. All of
these types can be helped absolutely
by applying some good liniment that
penetrates. An application of Sloan's
Liniment two or three times day
to the afflicted parts will give instant
relief Sloan's Liniment is good for
pain, and especially rheumatic pain,
because it penetrates to the seat OF
the trouble, soothes the afflicted part
and draws the pain. 'Sloan's Lini-
ment is all medicine" Get Csc bot
tie now. Keep it handy in case of
emergency. )

rapid success in difficult profession.
The only answer that I can give is
hard work There were other Incl
dents that also contributed to my sue

that Col. William N. Selig, president
of the company which bears his
name, gives everyone a fair op-
portunity. He appreciates close at

the part Of his employees. was for

Long hours fall to those who en-

! that, until the divorce was secured,
they had best not be seen together.
The wisdom of this appealed even to
Maddox. and already, to fill in what
remained OF the summer, he had de-
parted for Bar HarbOr. To Jimmie the
relief of his absence was inexpressi bic.
He HAD given himself only a week to
live, and, for the few DAYS remaining
to MIN, to be alone with Jeanne made
him miserably happy. The next morn
ing Jimmie confessed to his wife that
his eyes we're failing him. The trouble
came, he explained, from 1all ne had
received the year before steeplchasing.
He had not before spoken Of IL, as he
did not wish to distress her. The
oculists he had consulted gave him no
hope. He would end il. he declared, in
Jeanne was thoroughly alarmed.
That her old playmate, lover, husband
should come to such a plight at the
very time she had struck him the
hardest blow of all filled her with
remorse. In a hundred ways she had
tried to make up to him for the loss
of herself and for the loss OF his
eyes. She became his constant COM
panion: never had she been so kind
end considerate. They saw no one
from the outside, and each day through
the wood paths that circled their
house made silent pilgrimages- And
each day on a bench, placed high,
where the view was fairest, together,
and yet so far apart, watched the sun
sink into the sound
These are the times I will remem-
Der" said Jimmie; "when-when am
alone"
The last night they sat on the bench
he took out his knife and carved the
date-July, 1913.
What does that mean?" asked
Jeanne.
TT means tonight I seem to love
you more and need you more than
ever before" said Jimmie. That is
what il means viii you remember
Jeanne was looking away from him,
but she stretched out her hand and
laid il upon his.
said Jimmie, Ito see that Oculist from
Paris. They say what he tells you ~
the last word And, If he says"
Jeanne swung toward him and with
all the jealousy of possession held his
hand. Her own eyes were blurred
with tears.
