Mr. James H. Allen suffered for
years with rheumatism. Many times
this terrible disease LETT him helpless

solved In the joints and muscles and
expelled from the body.
with this idea in mind he consulted
physicians, made experiments and
finally compounded a prescription that
quickly and completely banished
every sign and symptom OF rhcuma-
t.sm from his system.
He freely gave his discovery TO
others who took 1t. with what might
be called marvellous success After

INDIAN FIGHTER NOT A GIANT
daniel Boone Said to Have Been
Small In stature-Man OF Deep
Religious Conviction.

Daniel Boone is generally pictured as
a giant in stature. 'of swarthy complex
ion, and a grim leader at grim period
in the country's history. ArchibaSd
Henderson in the Century draws q
very different picture of the pioneer.
According to him Boone was a scant
FIVE feet eight inches. although broad
of shoulder. and his eyes were mild
blue. topped by fair eyebrows. He
was shy. naive. benign and simple. He
was a super-woodsman, a master In
dian fighter. but only an, Indifferent
surveyor.
While acting as an agent for a COM
pany seeking wealth through land
.srHnka. and colonization, he himself

strument of Providence. specially or
dained by God to settle the wilderness
This religious fervor he carried with
him in his widest adventures and most
bloody battles, and he promptly credit
ed every success, great or small, Il
Providence. His two greatest exploits
were the exploration of the trans-Al
leghany region and the opening Of thu
Pennsylvania trail, the path that rar
through the Cumberlands and opened
the beauties and richness of Kentucky
to the pioneer hordes from the Allan
tic seaboard.

WISEACRES WERE ALL WRONG
Wife Could Afford to Smile In Later
Years at Those Who opposed
Her Marriage.

October 26, 1764. there were united
in marriage a pretty girl Of twenty,
Abigail Smith, daughter Of a minis
ter, to John Adams, young lawyer
without a pactice, himself the son of
rather poor farmer. The lady's
friends were not enthusiastic over the
match. as the girls forefathers were
all Of literary or professional caste.
while the young lawyer could boast
of no connection but with the soil.
The parishioners were Outsp0ken In
their disapproval of the match, it be-
ing based largely on their suspicion Of
lawyers in general.
The fiery old minister-father of Abb
gail promptly took exception to the
remarks, and the very next Sunday
announced his.iext as For John came
nelthe~ eating bread nor drinking
wine, and ye say he hath devil" The
minister's faith In his s0n-in-law
proved well given, for the unknown
and clientless lawyer became the sec
ond President of the United States.

Why THE CELT WAS PUZZLED
vlsitor's inquiry Did Seem unrsason-
able In View Of Statement He
Had Previously Made.

A well known physician Of New
York tells why he does not know
whence his ancestors came.
Now, he had always understood that
his ancestors were Scotch-Irish, and
ON the strength Of that belief had
prided himself on their royal blood
Once it occurred to him to 90 ana
have look at the old place whence
they were supposed to have come.
When he arrived at what he believed
was the right district he appealed to
an old freshman to tell him the exact
spot.
The Celt regarded him much as one
does q crazy man, and then said:
"Ye say that your ancestors emil
grated from here 200 years ago? Then
why the deuce. sir, are ye lookin' for
them here now7"

ing to their nature and inclination

Sarros to keep. that custom alive; er-

render was tantamount to facing mr.
ing squad at daylight, the majority OF
these stragglers, with consummate
courage. fought to the death.
The capture OF Buenaventura was
alone sufficient to insure BRIEF revo-
luton, but the capture of Sarros was
ample guarantee that the resistance to
the new order of things was already
at an end. However. Ricardo Ruey
felt that the prompt execution OF Sar-
ros would be an added guarantee, OF
peace by effectually discOuragfng any
opposition to the rebel cause In the
outlying districts, where few Isolated
garrisons still remained IN ignorance OF
the momentous events being enacted TT
the capital. For the time being, Ricar-
do was master of life and death in So
brante. and all of his advisers and sup
porters agreed with him that a so
called trial Of the ex-dictator would be
a rather useless affair. His life was
forfeit a hundred times for murder and
treason. and to be ponderous over MS
elimination would SAVIOR Of mockery.
Accordingly, at midnight, priest en-
tered the room in the arsenal where
Sarros was confined. and shrived him.
Throughout the night the priest re-
NAMED with him, and when that ear
~ morning march to the cemetery
commenced, he walked beside Sarros
repeating the prayers for the dying.
Upon reaching the cemetery there
wns a slight wait until carriage
drove up and discharged Ricardo Ruey
and Mother jerks. The sergeant In
command of the squad saluted and was
briefly ordered to proceed with ths
matter in hand; whereupon he turned
to Sarros, who with the customar!
sang froid Of his kind upon such oc
} casions was calmly smoking. ant
bowed deprecatingly. Sarros actual!
smiled upon him. "Adios, amigos" h
murmured. Then. as an afterthough
and probably because he was sufficien
of an egoist to desire to appear mar

He passed on into the room. John
Stuart Webster had. by this time, been
washed and bandaged, and one of the
Sarros servants (for the ex-dictator's
retinue still occupied the palace) had.
at DR.. Pacheco's command, prepared a
guest chamber upstairs and furnished
a night gown of ample proportions to
cover Mr.. Webster's bebandaged but
otherwise naked person. A stretcher
had just arrived, and the wounded man
was about to be carried upstairs. The
late financial hacker of the revolution
was looking very pale and dispirited ;
for once in his life his whimsical, ban
tering nature was subdued. His eyes
were closed. and he did not open them
