In the spring of 1893 I was at
tackled by Muscular and Inflamma-
tory Rheumatism. 1 suffered as only
those who have it know, for over
three years. 1 tried remedy after
remedy. and doctor after doctor, but
such relief as l received was only
temporary. Finally, L found a rem
edy that cured me completely. and
il has never returned. l have given
it to a number who were terribly
afflicted and even bedridden with
rheumatism. and it effected a cure
in every case.
1 want every sufferer from any
form of rheumatic trouble to try
this marvellous healing power. Don't
send a cent; simply fill out the cou-
pom below and l will send 1t free to
try. After you have used it and it
has proven itself to be that long
look ed-for means of curing your
rheumatism, you may send the price
of it, one dollar, but, understand,
do not want your money unless you
are perfectly satisfied TO send it. Isn't
that fair? Why suffer any longer
when positive relief is thus offered
you free? Don't delay. Write today

of last week.
Number of Dead is IS.
Continued from page ~

Number of Dead is IS.
Later advices from the stricken city
place the number of the storm victims
at less than 100, probably about Is.
The number of injured is reduced to
100, while the property loss is said to
approach the high total of $4,000. 900.
The city which has lost about fve-hun-
dred of it's sheltering homes inside of
less than half an hour was placed under
martial law on Monday and none can
walk among it's dead and ruins without
pass. Several relief trains have arrived.
The usual inexplicable tricks OF a
tornado are being reported and strange
dealings of death, like lifting a house
into lake and drowning its occupants
and blowing four children from porch
to drown in lake, are part OF the
dark story that is being painted by eye
witnesses. Many are said to have been
blown into the nearby lakes and the full
toll of the storm will never be known,
perhaps. .e........... ...-...

FOR THE cRUMBLER.

Every morning or so some member
OF the A. E. F. wakes up just as he is
about to set foot upon the gang plank
Of his dreams. And then perchance
he goes around all day with crouch
on, grumbling about the injustice of
spending another day overseas, and
kindling in his narrow brain hot indig-
nation toward the conspirators who hold
him here.
Well, watching the waters of the
Rhine flow by and waiting for Uncle
Sam to invite you for boat ride is
quite irksome in some respects, we'll
admit. But listen! The men in charge
of affairs aren't trying to see how slow
they can be in transporting the troops
of the A. E. F. home, as the thoughtless
remarks of good many soldiers imply.
Compare a few figures. Just before
the war ended the United States was
shipping 100000 soldiers month to
France, or about 10000 day. But
about IS per cent of this was done by
English ships, leaving approximately
100000 that American ships were doing,
or about $500 per day. But the return
of the soldiers, which has to be done
mostly by American ships, during March
went on at the rate of $500 per
day, making total of more than 200, 900
for the month; and by the end Of April
troops will be pulling out at the rate of
5000 every day. American shipping
capacity has increased of course, but
figures plainly show that it is being
used
So what's the kick? Every ship that
can be spared is carrying men back;
and no one is maliciously planning to
hold us here day longer than is nee
essary. Somebody has to be last, and
if that lot falls to us, let's meet it with
out grumbling.
A woman writes me that am a nice
man, but too much of a Bolshevist. Well.
few Bolshevist massacres do not make
me forget the pogroms of the Czarists.
the knout, the Siberian exiles, the agents
prosocateurs that made Russia hell for
humbler Russians for centuries. AS for
the fundamental principle of BoIshevism
greater and holier than I maintained it:
IF man will not work, neither shall
he eat. "Bolshevism in Russia has turned
society upside down. There was nothing
else to do. The Bolshevists have set the
workers above the drones. They have
turned down an aristocracy that never
recognized any duties, thatnever rendered
any service, that existed only by privi-
lege. That aristocracy must now serve
or starve, and so am a Bolshevist against
all privilege, everywhere, tho not for
revolution anywhere except where there
is no other way of abolishing privilege.
