Rheumatic Pains Go Swollen Joints
 Vanish

Sore, swollen, unsightly joints arc quickly freed from pain and brought back to normal with Ru-Ma.
 Lame people walk without aid: sleep comes to those who have been unable to lie in bed; hands that were helpless because of terrible rheuma- tism are now able to do their share for the support of the family.
 Ru-Ma is a wonderful remedy for stiffening of the joints. rheumatic pains, gout, neurtis and lumbago.
 It is q wonder worker: it never falters, never gives up until every vestige of the dangerous poisons that cause rheumatism are expelled from the body.
 There is no guess work about Ru- Mas ending your rheumatic mis cry. That's why Fair Drug Dept. and good druggists everywhere can sell it with guarantee of money back if it does not give quick and lasting relief. ..

Billings Beating Fails to Dis hearteD Mooney Lawyers

San Francisco Dec. 2 LF Un- dismayed by the state supreme courts refusal to recommend a pardon for Warren K. Billings, de- fcnse forces prepared today 10 press their pleas for a pardon for Thomas J. Mooney.
 Billings and Mooney were con- victed of the San Francisco Pre- paredness Day bombing ill 1916. which resulted in the death of ten persons and the injury of about 40. For more than decade, critics Of the case have inspired agitation throughout the country against their Imprisonment on the ground that they were not fairly convicted.
 The supreme court justices hand ed down their finding yesterday. In the case of Billings. their ruling is final unless they consent to re- hearing of his pardon application.
 Young Backs Court
 Governor (, C. Young has an nounced that the supreme court rul- ing in the Billings case would guide nlln Tn dlSpOSlng or MOoney par don application, but Mconey's at torneys said they would work all the harder to vindicate him.
 The supreme court justices, with one exception, held that Billings failed 10 make any affirmative showing that he did not in fact con- init the crime.
 Billings petition was based in part upon the retraction by John Macdonald, star witness for the state in the original trial, of testl- mony that he saw the accused men deposit a suit case at Steuart and Market streets d few minutes before the bomb exploded. The bomb had been transported in a suit case,
