YOUR RHEUMATISM
Remove Its Cause by PURIFYING
Your Blood. !,

One of the most important duties
OF your system is to burn up, certain
substances no longer of use In your
body. One is uric acid, now gener-
ally held to be the cause of rheuma-
tism. 1t inflames the joints, stiff
fens the muscles, causes pains,
aches, and lameness.
The system is helped to dispose
of this troublesome substance. and
rheumatism is permanently relieved,
by Hoods Sarsaparilla, the one true
blood purifier. 1t is aided in many
cases by Hoods Pills, which in small
doses are gentle laxative, in larger
doses an active cathartic. A grand
course of treatment, economical and
effective.

Iowa Man Joins White Sox.

Cedar Falls, Dec. S.-Peter Jorgen-
SON, star pitcher uf the Iowa State
Teachers College mines for several
seasons and captain in 10, has signed
a contract with the Chicago White
Sox and will join the pale hose squad
when they leave for the southern
training camp next spring. Jorgen-
son is now located at Gutenberg,
Iowa, where he is superintendent of
schools.
During his college days, Jorgenson
was the mainstay on the mound for
the tutors and is one of the best
hurlers ever developed at teachers
college. Steady and cool in any sit
uation and possessing plenty of
steam and stuff on the ball, he won
many victories for the Old Gold and
Purple by his stellar twirling.
Altho small in stature, the Gutten-
berg professor also yields the stick
with effectiveness, being one Of the
heaviest hitters on the tutor squads
of which he was member. Since
leaving college, Jorgenson has been
pitching for Ackley, McGregor,
Gutenberg and other semi profes-
sional mines of the state during the
summer His consistent work on the
mound last season attracted the at
tention of several major league
scouts and he decided to cast his lot
with Comeskey's team. Jorgenson
has signed contract for the entire
year and in the event he lacks ex-
perience to hold berth in fast com
pany, he is to be farmed to the
minors for q season.
From school teacher to major
league baseball player is big jump,
but his many friends predict he will
land in the big show, Jorgenson is the
first teachers college, player to ever
receive an opportunity to display his
ability on the big time circuits.

Prisoner Makes
His Get Away
Sheriff Weaver Returns From
Wisconsin Without
Man Wanted.

Recently the authorities at Marin
cite, Wisconsin, apprehended Louis
Maddix, wanted by Charlevoix County
officials on charge of desertion.
Sheriff Weaver was notified of Mad
dix's arrest and detention at Marinette,
and upon receipt of the notice immedi-
ately left to secure the much wanted
man.
Arriving in Marinette in the evening
Sheriff Weaver called on the local Off
cials, identified the prisoner as the
man wanted and made arrangements to
take his man from the Jail the follow
ing morning at an early hour for the
purpose OF transporting him back to
this county.
Some little time after the identified
ton Maddix requested the turnkey at
the Jail to get him package of cigarets,
the turnkey complied with the request
finding upon his return that >Maddix,
who was treated as trust, had taken
French leave, during the turnkey's
absence.
Sheriff Weaver was both surprised
and disgusted when he was told of the
escape, and spent some time assisting
the local officers in search for the
missing man. AS result of conf
dence placed in the prisoner by local
officials, Sheriff Weaver was oblidged
to return empty handed.
Wisconsin authorities are keeping mp
their search for the escaped prisoner
and if successful in their efforts will
return the man to the jail in Marinette,
but the treatment accorded, that of
trusty, will no doubt, be eliminated.

year in the jackson penitentiary and

Nowak (which is probably not his
correct name) came to East Jordan
from Muskegon few months ago and
located on farm two miles west of the
city, Deputy Sheriff Cook became
suspicious and raided the premises,
finding large barrel filled with an
alcoholic mash. The barrel was used
last summer to mix paris green in
Careful search failed to produce the
necessary still, but this came in by ex-
