It is natural to rub the spot that hurts, and when rheumatic
pains are shooting; through the joints and muscles aud they are
inflamed and sore, the sttUerer is apt to turn to liniments and plasters
for relief; and while such treatment may quiet the pain temporarily,
no amount of rubbing: or blistering: can cure Rheumatism, because it
is not a skin disease, but is in the blood and all through the system,
and every time yoxx arc exposed to tlic same conditions that caused
the first attack, you arc going to have another, aud Rheumatism
will last just as long as the poison is in the blood, no matter what
you apply externally. Too much acid in the blood is one cause of
Rheumatism ; stomach troubles, bad digestion, weak kidneys and
torpid liver arc otucr causes
which bring on this painful dis
ease, because the blood becomes
tainted with the poisonous mat
ter which these organs fail to
carry out of the system. Cer
tain secret diseases will produce
Rheumatism, and of all forms
this is the most stubborn and
severe, for it seems to affect
every bone and muscle in the
body. The blood is the medium
hv which the noisons and acids
arc carried through the system, and it doesn't matter what kind of
Rheumatism you have, it must be treated through the blood, or you
can never get permanently rid of it. As a cure for rheumatic trou
bles S. S. S. has never been equalled. It doesn't inflame the stomach
and ruia the digestion like Potash, Alkalies and other strong drugs,

Unlversallst, Atlanta, Ga.
The Way to Salvation. The Blbl.
Is not filled with dark sayings, which
only the learned can decipher after
much study and deep thought, but It
Is a lamp unto our feet and a light
unto our path, which shows the way
unto salvation unto all men. Rev. J.
II. 0. Fritz, Lutheran, Brooklyn, N.
Y.
Civic Corruption. Lack of civic
pride has made civic corruption pos
sible. We must have a civic patriot
ism which Is not only strong ln time
of municipal election, but maintain It
from day to day.. There must be an
enlightenment of tho public mind.
Rev. J. D. Adam, Reformed. Brook
lyn, N. Y.
Sainthood. There has never been
but ono example of flawless sainthood
on this earth. All the rest were "men
of llko passions as we are." All have
gone out of this life with many Im
perfections and far more to learn in
the school beyond than tbey ever
learned hero. Rev. A. B. Klnsolvlng,
Disciple, Brooklyn, N. Y.
Poverty. Thousands of men can en-
duro self-denial and sacrifice, and
disappointed ambition, with patience
But to preach to them that there Is
any blessing ln enduring unnecessary
pain is to make them feel: "You rub
the sore when you should bring the
plaster." Rev. F. D. Hopkins, Con
gregatlonallst, Chicago, 111.
Justice. Some religious teachers
have apparently conceived of God as
living ln a court house and exercising
the functions ot Ills office as a cruel
and relentless Judge. The whole of
their theology has had a legal cast,
and tho Idea of Justice has been that
of retribution and vlndlctlveness.
Her. II. S. Bradley, Methodist, Atlan
ta, Ga.
Club Life. Substitutes for homo
weaken the family. There has been
much and strong opposition to club
lite, because It has done harm to the
.family. In many cases It has been
made a substitute for the homo.
Where men and women spend much
time ln such association there must ot
necessity bo a neglect of home. Rev,
D. G. Wylle, Presbyterian, New York
City.
Municipal Corruption. To tamely
turn over the vital Interests ot a great
city, whose public life determines In
great degree the moral standard of
Its citizens, to a band of men without
conscience or shame to exploit for
their selfish and corrupt ends. Is not
In accord with the spirit of Him who
drove from the temple those who de
filed It Ilev. T. Crnft Methodist.
Denver, Col.
Tho Right Place. Life Is a hunt to
find one's self. There are two hunt
ers, one's slf nnd God. If you work
ln unison, the probability Is that you
will bag your game. If you proceed
separately the certainty Is that when
tbe day Is dono you will returu empty
handed, a sadder and a wiser man
Ono does not find himself until ho
finds and fills his place. Rev. H. M,
Tipple, Baptist Brooklyn, N. Y.
Lovo and Trust. Without God
there Is no place for lovo, trust, hope,
courage In this great scene of life.
Can any ono bo happy who sees iio
lovo In the world, who knows of no
ono who can be trusted to do tho best
for every man. Y'ou know It Is Im
possible. Tbo counsel of tho ungodly
leads to hardness of heart, to hope
less struggle, to final despair. Rev,
II, It Harris, Episcopalian, Philadel
phia, Pa,
Trackless Trolleys at Hcranti n
Tbo only system ot trackless trol
leys ln tho United States Is that at
Scranton, Pa., which has made a fair
showing of success. In Franco nhd
Germany a number of these lines,
which havo electrical automobiles op
erated by an overhead wire, havo
proved satisfactory, tho only objection
to thoin being tho fact thnt they re
quire twice tho current used for cars
operated over rails.

A Cough
"I hare made n most tliorouch
trial of Ayer'a Cherry Pectoral and
am prepared to say inat for all dis
eases of the lungs It naver disap

Aycr's Cherry Pectoral
wont cure rheumatism;
we never said it would.
It won't cure dyspepsia;
wc never claimed it. But
it will cure coiichs and
colds of all kinds. We
first said this sixty years
ago; we've been saying it
ever since.
