Rheumatism it caflsed by a sour, acid condition of the blood, brought
on by chronic constipation, weak kidneys, poor digestion and a general
sluggish condition of the system. Because of these irregularities the
refuse and waste matters of the body are not promptly expelled, but
are left to sour and ferment, producing irritating acids which are taken
up by the blood and distributed to all parts of the system. This acrid mat
ter weakens and diseases the blood so that instead of supplying the body
with nourishing, healthful properties it deposits the poison with which it is
loaded into the muscles, nerves, bones and joints, and Rheumatism gets
lomplet,e control of the system. 8ome suffer almost constantly with the
disease, while others have intervals of - freedom, during which they
live in constant dread - of the next attack, when an exposure to
or dampness or some other . irregularity will cause the symp-
Athena, Dee. 7. The city has lev
led a 9-mlll tax for the ensuing year.
The tax the past year was 6 mills. It
Is believed that this will greatly de
crease the present bonded Indebted
ness of the city which Is now $28,000.
A meeting will be held Saturday for
the levying of a school tax, and It Is
being urged that a 10-mill tax be
levied. With a IB-mill school tax
during the past few yenra the district
has reduced Its bonded Indebtedness
from $7000 to $800, and its floating
Indebtedness from $4000 to $200.
Now a 10-mlll tax will do.

Potatoes Under Snow.
Snow fell on the mountains and

half of the crop remains In the fields

ever, this has occurred before and the
potatoes have been dug In the spring,
coming to market In good condition,

Maud Fcaly December 10.
Lovers of clean, high-class plays
will be pleased to learn that Maude
Fealy, the youngest dramatic Btar on
the American stage, will be seen here
at the Frazer theater Monday, De
cember 10, appearing In her latest
triumph, the new comedy by Martha
Morton, entitled "The Illusion of
Beatrice." When Maude Fealy was
first presented In this play at the
commencement of this season, It was
declared by prominent critics to be
the best vehicle for the display of
Maude Fealy's remarkable talents
and girlish personality. In "The Il
lusion of Beatrice" Miss Fealy has won
even greater honors than those show
ered on her when she was leading
woman for Sir Henry Irving, while
still In her teens. Miss Fealy will be
presented here by her manager, John
Cort, In a manner worthy of her
ability. She is supported by a se
lected New York company and
equipped with a wealth of scenery and
effects. The many Inquiries for seats
for the Maude Fealy engagement In
dicate that her appearance here will
be greeted by almost fashionable audience.
Countess Olga Coming. ,
The successful musical comedy.
fashion and beauty show, made fam
ous by Anna Held, "The Little Duch
ess," Is serving this season as the
starring vehicle of Countess Olga von
Hatxfeldt. who made a big Jilt In tne
same offering last year.
This was the musical production
that gave rise to the coining of a new
irnrrt In the English language, for It
was 'The Little Duchess" that one
of the New York critics dubbed a
'musical comedy glrlesque,"
Thla la nulte annroDiiate. as femin
ine beauty is one of the features of
the attraction, and the bhj company
Is composed of girls and comedians.
The original costly production is
used Intact Parisian gowns, sump
tuous scenic effects and all with the
hnnir rewritten, musical numbers In
terpolated, and the costumlc and scen
ic equipment rejuvenated.
Manv well known names are to oe
found In the cast, while the chorus Is
going on record everywhere as the
best selection of feminine comeliness
seen this season. This attraction plays
at the Frazer theater In January, and
the management announces It as one
of the biggest musical events of the
season.
