YoU MUST GO SACK OF
THE PAIN AND CURE
TIE CAUSE Or
1T FIRST.

Rheumatism is not Just local
soreness. The pain in the muscle
or joint is merely q symptom
the cause is much deeper.
Rubbing the sore spot with oils
or liniments brings a certain
amount of temporary relief, but
the disease is still in the SYSTEM
and the pain will come back again.
Rheumatism is poison in the
blood. That poison must be re-
moved before the disease can be
cured.
The wonderful successes attend
ing the use of s. s. s. in cases Of
rheumatism are due to the fact
that S. S. 8. goes right to the
source Of the trouble.
1t acts directly on the blood
purifies the blood and removes
the poison that is the cause of
rheumatism.

NOTHING IN LAW" WOMEN
ARE TOLD BY BARROW
Declares i'm Address at Chicago That
Courts Are Boxing Rings With
Poor Man Loser.

Chicago, Dec. 1S.-Pretty lawyer
of the BrOwnleigh club to hear Clar-

chosen profession, but when he got

There is nothing in the law" said
Mr.. barrow, to begin with.
And then he proceeded to tell them
what they could not do.
"YOu can't be shining lights at the
bar" he said, because you are too
kind.
You can never be corporation law
yers because you are not cold-blooded.
You have not high grade of intellect.
"You can never expect to get the
fees that men get. l doubt if you ever
make a living at the work you nave
chosen.
'The courts today are like boxing
rings where dwarfs are pitted against
giants and the judges referee the
game.
IF II poor man gets sick and has to
have an operation the best surgeon in
the city will perform it free of charge.
But if the poor man is charged with
murder you can't get a decent lawyer
to defend him free of charge. Make
that your field"
