Rheumatism Is
 A Joint AiLment
New German Discovery Gives Quick Soothing Relief For Crceky,
 Swollen. Painful Joints.

Medical science has definitely proved that rheumatism is an ail- ment of the joints and nerves and is caused by an internal infection such as a blind pus pocket in tooth
 or an infected tonsil which throws off poisons absorbed and carried by the blood to the delicate membrane lining the joints. An infection of the joint tissues follows which thickens the membrane and dries up the joint fluid causing stiff, swollen and en- larged joints which bring about q
 pressure on the nerves of the joint causing the intense, agonizing pain
 of rheumatism.
 German science working from these newly discovered facts has at last prodn"-
 ed wholly different remedy which gives the same quick relief from rheumatic
 pain as aspirin does for headache pain a remarkable powder dissolved iu hiend of rare penetrating oils which when appIi-
 cd to the affected parts, penctratc5 clear through the skin to the under pain hy ! bathing and saturating the nerve tth"rs 1 ending iU the tissues just beneath th" surface of the skin. and the soothing s'm- i saton of pain relief is carried along the ! nerves 10 the Joints.

WOMEN NEED SWAMP

Thousands of women have kidney and bladder trouble and never sus- pect it.
 Women's complaints often prove to be nothing else but kidney trou- ble, or the result of kidney or blad- der disease.
 If the kidneys are not in healthy condition, they may cause the other organs to become diseased.
 Pain in the back, headache, loss of ambition, nervousness, are often times symptoms of kidney trouble.
 Don't delay starting treatment. Dr. Kilmers Swamp-Root, a phy- sician's prescription, obtained at any drug store, may be just he remedy needed to overcome such conditions.
 Get a medium or large size bottle immediately from any drug store.
 However. if you wish first to test this great preparation send ten cents to 'Dr. Kilmer & Co.,, Binghamton, N. Y, for a sample bottle. When writing be sure and mention this pa per.

Rev. Walter J. Lyddy and Philip Troup of New Haven Make Stirring Addresses.

Pleas for religious tolerance were made by Rev. Walter J. Lyddy of St. Mary's church and Philip Troup, former New Haven postmaster and editor of the New Haven Union, at the fifth annual banquet of the New Britain chapter of the American in- stitute Of Banking at the Burritt hotel last night.
 T. P. Prior of the Planville Trust company was toasmastcr. There were about 100 guests. Robert Ioomis led the singing, altcrnat- ing for brief period with Clem Lewis.
 Mir. Prior announced that the New Britain chapter now has 107 members, including bank employees of Bristol and Plainvilc.
 Father lyddy stated that he has been in New Britain only a short time but in that time he has learned of the great loyalty and generosity of spirit of the people of this city through political speakers and cdi- torial writers.
 He pointed out to the guests that they were simply individuals and that their importance was measured only by the extent 10 which they gave and received CO., operation with their fellow men. We cannot all be superiors, some of us must be subordinates, bu5 the subordinate must realize that 1t is only by manifest of his character that he proves his real worth and value," he said.
 He pointed out that day alter day people go into banks to ASK ad- vice about financial affairs. Thcst people are openly confesslns that they are ignorant of things in which the bank employees have experience and it was the attitude towards these friends of the bank whicf helped to increase the value of th' employees, he explained.
 r The speaker called attention tt the cosmopolitan population Of New Britain and how these people star out from their European homes n the belief that the streets of Amer

country from the humblest begin nings. "one has only 10 read our news- papers carefully 10 note every day that America is still a land of op- portunity. During the World War our president was Q man who had earned his own way through Prince ton and his cabinet was composed of men who had come up out of our common life. When we levied upon tho brains of tho nation to promote our war endeavors. we drafted Hoov- CT. Schwab, Hurley, Ryan, Baruch, Vanderlip, Edison, Stettenius, Vail and a host of other worthies, all liv- Ing proofs that ours Is the great land of opportunity. How puerile in the light of this record seems the mouthings of many of our soap box orators and their rawlings about the capitalistic class in this country. ....
 "Who are our capitalists? v.
 "They are the twenty-five million Americans who bought thirty billion dollars worth of Liberty Bonds.
 "They are the eleven million Americans who have deposited eigh- teen billion dollars in our American banks.
 "They are the thirteen million Americans who have deposited eight and a half billions in our savings banks. "They are the ten million Ameri- cans who have deposited seven bil- lions in our state banks.
 "They are the eighty-three million American holders of life insurance policies. representing fifty-four bil- lion dollars worth of insurance.
 "They are the seven million Americans with four billion dollars worth of assets in our building and loan associations.
 Twenty million families live in eighteen million dwellings in this country. Fourteen million of them own their own homas-seven mill lions, without encumbrance.
 There are fifteen million tele- phones in this country-more than three times that in all the rest of the world combined. Six out of ten of our American families have tele- phones in their homes.
 Thirty million Americans are se- , curity holders of one kind or an- other.
 There are eighteen million auto mobiles in the world, and fifteen mill , lion of them are in the United States. And of these thirteen and a half million are pleasure cars. Over thirty million people attended schools of one kind or another in this country last year and there were over one and one-half billion paid admissions to motion picture the aters alone.
 "I could give you facts and fig ures by the hour, but all of them would not silence the spirit that animates the agitator who seems to get his chief joy in knocking our country and its institutions,
 Ut is not true that the rich are growing richer in this country. On the contrary the real fact is the rich as rule grow poorer and the poor richer because it Is literally true in America, today as always, that there is only three or four generations at most between shirt sleeves and shirt sleeves.
 "We must be boosters for America and optimists.
 we must, however, not be so self satisfied as to imagine that there is

We are . notoriously careless and thoughtlcss people and our political responsibili- ties rest upon us today far too lightly.

Sometimes, hl says. their hearts yield against the judgment of their heads. This must be on Sun days and bank holidays. However, just when, where and how this is so, he doesn't say.
 After reading this dlscouraging article by Mir. Forgan on a good note, was glad 10 come across this little inspirational and encouraging gem quoted in this pamphlet from Harden:

So I decided not to be so darned glum about what Mir. Forgan said constituted a good note.
 And then l picked up this Bank News-issued by the Denver chapter and l learned from MT. Loasby, president of a trust company, that this banking business is a peculiar one-which I'll concede is true-and that it doesn't do any good to be a spreader of gloom.
 Well I got a real kick out of these three booklets, so kindly contributed by Mir. Prior, but l didn't get eX- actly what l was looking for - a topic to talk about on this occasion that might be of interest to those embarking on a banking career.
 "Fortunately this occasion falls in between Lincoln's and Washington birthdays and that suggested to me theme that should be uppermost ill our thoughts during this season Of patriotic anniversaries no matter what our particular vacations or ad' vacations may be.
