Common Sense VIII Stop
Horrible Rheumatism

The famous Opie, a great English
painter, was once asked what he mixed
his paints with. Brains" he replied.
Rheumatism cannot live long in a
body that is cared for by head full
of brains. Brains or common sense
is an avowed enemy to rheumatism.
The poisons with which every rheu-
matte body is filed, arise IN the Kid
neys, or stomach or blood. This
poison goes into the blood. Il is
stronger than the ordinary force of
the. blood. It lodges in the muscles
and joints. It gathers around nerves
and presses upon them. It iniames
the flesh. Pain comes and remains
until the cause Of the trouble, the
acids, and poisons, are driven out of
the blood.

DECISION IN THE
HASKELL" CASE
IS I'M PO RTANT
INTERPRETING LA TOILETTE
SEAMAN ACT, DECIDED THAT
SEAMEN CAN DRAW HALF
THEIR WAGES.

A decision was rendered by Judge
w. B. Sheppard, for the Northern
District of Florida, for H. T. Paulsen
and Alfred Wallestine, in the admit
rally case of H. T. Paulsen and Alfred
Wellestine VS.. the schooner Jacob n.
Haskell, which places an important
Interpretation on the LaFollette sea
mans act.
Two men claimed half of their pay
after five days in port, under the act
of March A, 1915. Payment was re-
fused on the ground that wages are
payable only once, and then in ''half
part" in each port where the vessel
takes or delivers cargo, and that after
one payment in port no other must
be paid in that port.
The object of the law as stated in
the decision was that there should be
retained in the hands of the owners
of the vessel an equal amount to that
paid the men aboard, thus safeguard
ing the vessel, and rendering it diff
cult for a man to desert the ship. The
practice heretofore has been to pay
one-haf of the wages due at a port,
and at the next port pay one-half Of
the total due, thus decreasing the
amount in the hands Of the owners,
and tending to increase the amount
paid in full to the seamen.
After sailing from Newport News
the master of the Haskell, upon ar
irving at Guadalupe, paid to each of
the libellents a half part of the wages
then earned. Upon arrival at Pensa-
cola they were again paid not only
1 one-half of the wages earned since
the payment at Guadalupe, but in
! addition half of that portion of the
wages withheld previously, decreasing
the amount held by the ship to one
fourth and increasing total payment
to three fourths
At the expiration of five days from
the date of payment at Pensacola
they again demanded partial payment
which was refused on the theory thai
they were entitled to but one payment
in port.
i Upon refusal, the men left the serv
ice Of the ship and libelled her for the
full amount of their wages, less thc
partial payments they had received.
In his construction of section 1886
Of the LaFoIlette act, Judge Sheppard
said: 81 am of the opinion that con
gress, in the passage of this statute
intended that the master of the shil
should at all times have in his hand

Sir William Robertsin, chief of the
imperial staff Of the British army,
and possible successor Of Lord Kitch-
ener, has had the most remarkable
rise of any man in the British army.
He started life as pantry boy,
later became a footman, then en-
listed as a private.
He was commissioned from the
ranks and in spite of the caste
system which made such promotions
almost impossible in the British
forces before the war, he rose to the
highest position on the staff.
