Meet Rheumatic Attack With
Famous Remedy.

Be assured your Rheuma-
tism will master you unless
YOU conquer it. This disease,
beginning its attack slowly
and with little notice from Its
victim, gradually increases In
violence until the whole sys-
tenn is involved. The patient
often becomes a wreck or a
cripple. 1t attacks In various
forms,-Articular, Muscular,
and Inflammatory. No part
of the system is immune to its
violence. The pains attack
every portion of the body, and
when the disease gets a firm
hold upon the system, the pa
tient becomes helpless.
But the origin of this most
painful of all diseases is in the
blood, and no amount of eX-
ternal treatment C a n over
come the trouble. Rubbing
with liniments and ointments
may suffice temporarily in al
laying the pains, but the trou-
BILE is deep in the muscles,
Joints and ligaments, and can
be driven from the system
only through the use Of a med
icine that will attack the dis
ease in all parts of the body,
and that is what S. S. S. does,

FAILURE TO COMPLETE
DEAL BRINGS ON SUIT

On the ground that after the time

had expired, W. G. Skelley refused
to pay for the lease. ]. l.. Neely and
p. q. Laughner yesterday filed suit
In district court for S27,5 the pur-

petition, state that on August 10,
1918, they entered into written
contract with Skelley to sell him an
undivided three-fourths interest in
anyoil and gas mining lease in Steph-
ems county, Texas. '
According to terms OF the con-
tract. abstract OF title was to be de-
livered within Is days after the deal
was consummated. After that,
Skelley still had five days to make
up his mind about the title. On Oc-
tober II this year, the assignment
OF interest was made and demand
made for the money. Stating that
Shelley has failed and refused to
pay the stipulated price, judgment
in the sum OF S27,50o Is asked.
