TISM
CAN NOT BE .RUBBED AWAY
It ,1a jerfectly natural to rub tie spat that hurts, and when the muscles,
nerves, joints and bones are throbbing and twitching -with the pains of
Rheumatism the sufferer is apt to turn to the liniment bottle, or some other
external application, in an effort to get relief from the disease, by producing
tounter-irntation on the flesh. Such treatment will quiet the pain tempo
rarily, but can have no direct curative effect on the real disease because it
does not jeach the blood, where the cause is located. Rheumatism is more
lhan skin deep it is rooted and grounded in the blood and can only be
reached by constitutional treatment IT CANNOT BE RUBBED AWAY.
Rheumatism is due to an excess of uric acid in the blood, brought about by
i ua jC-Vm ulatloa ia the system cf refuse matter which the natural avenues
of bodily waste, the Bowels and Kidneys, have failed to carry off. This
refuse matter, cominj in contact with the different acids of the body, forma
uric acid which is absorbed into the blood and distributed to all parts of the
body, and Rheumatism gets possession of the system. The aches and pains
are only symptoms, and though they may be scattered or relieved for a time
by surface treatment, they will reappear at the first exposure to cold or
dampness, or after an attack of indigestion or other irregularity. ' Rheuma
tism can never be permanently cured while the circulation remains saturated
with irritating, pain-producing uric acid poison. The disease will shift
rrorn muscle to muscle or joint to joint, settling on the nerves, causing
inflammation and swelling and such terrible pains that the nervous system
Is often shattered, the health undermined, and perhaps the patient becomes
deformed and crippled for life.. S. S. S. thoroughly cleanses the blood and
renovates the circulation by neutralizing the acids and expelling all foreign
matter from the system. It warms and invigorates the blood so that instead

Getting Practice. X '
"I counted fteven girls, taking down
my sermon In shorthand this morn
ing," said a suburban minister. "I am
getting tired of this business of turn
ing church Into school. It Is a dese
cration of the Sabbath and ct the Bane
tuary, and It gets worse year by year.
"When the thing first began, I ad
mit that I was flattered. I thought
the solitary shorthand writer in my
front pew was a reporter. I took un
usual pains that morning, and I
searched all the newspapers the next
day. In vain, of -course. The short
hand writer was merely a student of
stenography, using me to practice on.
"Students of stenography should
practice on actors and on lecturers, but
no that would cost money. Nothing
suits them but ministers, and every
Sunday, all over our land, young men
and wou.en, with their pads and foun
tain pens, go to church solely to Im
prove their shorthand."

"Are you happier now that you own

my wife kicked to the landlord for re
pairs Instead of coming to me." Wash

While visiting the south recently
traveler chanced upon a resident of a
sleepy hamlet In Alabama.
"Are you a native of this town?" ask
ed the traveler.
"Am I a what?" languidly asked the
one addessed.
"Are you a native of the town"
"What's that?"
"I asked you whether you were a
native of the place?"
At this juncture there appeared at
the open door of the cabin the man's
wife, tall, sallow and gaunt After
a careful survey of the questioner, she
said :
"Ain't you got no sense, Bill? He
means was yo' livln' teah when you
was born, or was yo born before yo

Sodium Is an excellent conductor of
electricity, and In view of the Increas
ing price of copper and the growing de
mand for that metal not only for elec
tric installations, but for many other
purposes, the Idea has been broached
that sodium should be tried as a ma
terial for electric cables. Experiments
looking to this end have lately been
made by A. O. Bett He filled an Iron
rube 130 feet In length with melted so
dium. The core thus formed had a
cross-section of an Inch and a half. A
current of t00 ampheres was readly
transmitted through it Mr. Bett thinks
that sodium conductors constructed
upon this plan may be made cheaper
than conductors of copper.
A satisfactory rubberless tire has
been evolved. The suheme consists of
filling a thin inner tire with a hot so
lution of glue, glycerine and chromic
salts os the tire reposes In place on the
rim of the wheel. This Is allowed to
harden for a few days when the tire
is covered with canvas or some similar
material which will withstand the
wear and tear of service. It Is claimed
for this rubber substitute that It is
very durable and will carry heavy loads
without deterioration or loss of resili
ency. It Is much cheaper than rubber
and the only criticism raised against
It Is that It Is heavy. Bach wheel
equipped In this manner adds 40 to CO
pounds to the weight of the vehicle.
The advantages will outweigh this ob

A German official of standing In the
superior grades Herr Martin, a gov
ernment .councillor has attracted a
good deal of at least ephemeral notice
by a new theory of aerostatics In war,
which he has just published. For nov
elty the views of Herr Martin could
hardly be surpassed. The title of his
work Is "The Age of Aerial Naviga
tion," which Is, of course, the twentieth
century. Herr Martin contends that
during the century now opening aero
statics and antomoblllsm will assume
Immense Importance In Bh-ategy, and
will go far to neutralize In favor of
France the great numerical preponder
ance given to Germany by -her larger
population. Into the day dreams of
Herr Martin, which Include partition
of Belgium and the Germanizing of
Morocco, It is not needful to enter. But
he foresees that France and Germany

Indiana and War Paint.
The Indians have a tradition that
tells how the custom of painting tbolr
faces originated. A certain big chief
while hunting deor was chased by a
lion and fell exhausted, calling upon
the Big Bear, which Indians believe
was the grandfather of man, to save
him. The Big Bear beard and went to
the man's assistance, scratclftng bit
foot and sprinkling the blood over him.
No animal will eat bear or taste his
blood, and when the lion smelted it be
turned away. But in doing so he
scratched some of the blood off the In
dian's face with bis claw by accident
When he found himself unhurt, the
Indian was so thankful that he let the
blood dry on his face. With the marks
of the lion's clawS tbis gave the effect
of stripes, and ever afterward when
going on hunting expeditions for man
or beast the Indian painted his fact In
stripes as 'a charm against danger.
