No More Rheumatism
TOrturing Pains and Swollen Joints
Vanish When Rhcuma Is Used.

At last a real remedy for rheuma-
tism! And a good one it must be when
Kennedy's Drug store, and good
druggists everywhere sell it on the
no-cure no-pay basis.
Rheumatics should hail the news
with great rejoicing, for it is surely
remarkable remedy and has a rec
ord of almost unbelievable cures.
Read what J. l.. oliver of Albany, Ca,
says about it:
II had sciatic rheumatism for two
years. and tried every medicine Offer
ed for rheumatism. Tried many doc
tors, was treated at one of the best
Southern sanatoriums, and if / i'm
proved any l did not realize it. | am
a conductor on the Central of Geor-
gta railroad, and had secured a pass
to Hot Springs, Ark, to take treat
ment. About that time ] saw Rheu-
ma advertised and concluded to try it,
l abandoned my trip, took three bot
ties, and now feel as well as ever. I
would not take hundred thousand
dollars for what Rheuma has done
for me.
If you have rheumatism in any form
don't delay-try Rheuma today. A
large bottle is not expensive, and
your money back if it does not give
you quick and joyful relief.

:SAYSSALVADOR
NEEDS MONEY
New Minister at Washington
Has Reached United
States

San Francisco, Cal, May 2.-The
first and greatest need of the re-
public of Salvador is money, said
Salvador Sol. new Minister of Pleni-
potentiary at Washington for that
country who has just arrived from
South America. The money is needed
at once, according to Minister Sol.
twenty-five millions of dollars are
needed to properly take care of our
coffee crop and the government of
the republic will not only welcome
foreign capital but will make every
fair inducement to attract it," he said.
I'VE are particularly anxious to in
crease our commercial relations with
the United States.
The reason that Salvador did not
actively enter into the war against
an old clique of politicians favorable
TO that country. Since the war that
element has been completely elimin-
ated. The administration of the
country as elected now is entirely in
the hands of pro-American officials.
our president, Jorge Melendez, was
educated in the United States and l
am one of number of others in
official positions who have had the
same advantage.
some large banks who can do business
in big way to open up in Salvador.
There are two banks of a capital of
n half million dollars who have
started business but what we really
need is an institution which will have
a capital of at least ten millions of
dollars.
ANY man who has capital say
about $4,000, will find excellent op-
portunites for investment which, with
work and care. will bring him returns
well worth while. l should strongly
advise against any young man who
has only his hands and his brain to
depend on from going down there.
Our coffee before the war, was
consumed in France. Italy. Germany
and England. Now Germany is elm
mated and the United States is get
ting one-half of our crop.
1T will be my particular endeavor
TO foster the commercial relations
between the two countries and to in
terest capital.
We rely for our protection on the
United states confident of its fairness;
so much so that we sent our delegate
to the Paris Peace convention instruc-
ted to concur with the vote of the
United States on all questions which
came up. We do not fear anything
as we are confident that the Monroe
Doctrine will stand and that this
country will safeguard the nations of
this continent"
