IF you are one of the many thou

make up your mind today that you

Rheumatism is a stubborn disease.
1t Is not on the surface. therefore.
you must not expect to be able to cure
it with remedies applied to the surface.
No one ever yet effected a permanent
cure In this way. so why should you
continue to suffer while relying upon
treatment that has failed IN thousands
of cases?
The experience of others afflicted
with Rheumatism IS your best guide,

not only save yourself untold suffering.

Rheumatism has practically the same

est the inter league series between the

The idea for such series originated
with Garry Hermann, who planned II
as a new departure for the major
leagues. Herrmann's plans were never
completed, however. and the idea was
dropped by the big leaguers.
The two big minor leagues are con-
fident that their series will be sue

pastime. for the fans Of their circuits
have never had the opportunity to see
inter league ball. For this reason it
is believed that the inter league plan
would work much better in the minor

clubs representing both big leagues are
operated.
But the big leaguers will watch the

Kansas State University Establishes
Course Which Is First of tho
Kind in This Country.

Kansas is preparing to establish In
It's state university a four-year course
in city management, the first of it's
kind to be established in the country.
When a man, or a woman either, is
graduated from this course he will
have had thorough training in every
department Of city affairs except poll
tics, and will go out to help run cities
as a trained mar goes into a factory
or business. Prof. T. w. Blackmar,
who is head of the economics depart
ment and has been instructed to pre-
pare the details of the course, had this
to say concerning the need for such a
school:
"No man can manage a business I'M

of it's nature. The man who manages
a city ought to be as experienced as
On engineer, Or a teacher. Why can
not universities train men for manag-

to do. The course of study for train
ing city managers should be about one
