Treatment for

Rheumatism. and many other dis.
eases. cause the nerves TO be partic-
ularly sensitive. In bad weather the
low barometric pressure. which has
its effect on the free action OF skin
and a consequent ~lessening of the
escape of water from the body. sets
up a nerve irritation. The perspi-
ration is lessened. and on this ac-
count probably the rheumatic pain
increases.
Persons who suffer from rheuma-
tism should keep the bowels freely
open. They should be moderate in
eating and drinking and avoid alco-
holic drinks. They should lead a sim
pie. regular life.
Local treatments OF dry heat. slim
ulating liniments. electricity and jul
dicious massage will help the rheu-
matte pains. But as rheumatism is.
directly DR. indirectly. a germ disease.
the only real cure Is a clearing up
Of the sea OF the trouble. Ii may
be in infected teeth, tonsils or ade-
noids, or from the toxic poisons in
the intestinal tract. There r many
causes for this condition. A doctor
should be consulted in all eases Of

mills. Looking out cf the train

than they could count on both hands.
They were delighted, for nothing Is
so pleasant to look at as windmiils
with their four arms turning in the
wind.
Then they sought Dutch boys and
girls with wooden shoes. tho boys
with wide blue trousers and the girls
with white caps. white aprons. blue

they didn't succeed In finding boys
and girls dressed just like that. they
did see wooden shoes and blonde hair
