CAMPAIGN COMMITTEE. (Paid Advertisement) Stories at Which Yon Will Smile THE nnall ton of a clergyman who was noted for his tiresome ser mons overheard two friends of his father saying how dry they were and how hard it was to keep awake during them. The following Sunday while the minister was preaching he was astounded to see his son throwing pebbles at the congregation from the gallery. The clergyman frowned angrily at him, when the boy piped out in a clear, treble voice: "It's all right, pop. You go on preaching, I'm keeping them awake. A MAINE clergyman, living at the hotel in his town, ordered a type writer and had it sent to his rooms. It came when the clergyman was out, and the proprietor took charge of it. When the minister returned the pro prietor led him behind the desk and whispered: "That case of yours is on the ice, parson. I guess it will be all right by dinner-time." a COMMERCIAL traveler had taken at Urge order in the forth for a consignment of hardware, and endeavor ed to press upon the canny Scottish manager who had given the order a box of Havana cigars. "Naw," he replied. "Don't try to bribe a man. I cudna tak them and I am a member 01 we kirk!" "But will you accept them as a present 1" "I eudna," said the Scot. "Well, then," said the traveler, "sup pose I sell you the cigar for a merely nominal sum say. sixpence! " " Weel, in that case," replied the Scot, "since you press me, ana not liking iae re fuse an offer weel meant, I think 111 be taking twa boxes."

STEWART SULPHUR CO.. 71 Columbia St., Seattle, With. Gentlemen : I hid Rheumatlim from 1861 to 1911; wi leldom free tram pain. I began taking Sulpbnrro and took It about ail weeks. I have had no Rheumatism since, thankt to Sulpburro. Youra truly, Q. O. PRITCHABD. 1311 Albany St., Los Angeles, Cal. When Sulphurro will put an end to half a century of rheumatic sufferings it is, indeed, a remarkable medicine. The truth is that Sulphurro seems to be an absolute and unfailing antodote for Rheumatism, when the simple directions for its use are followed. The blood poisons that produce tbepangs and tortures of Rheu matism cannot exist when Sulphurro spreads its purifying influ ence throughout the system. By means of baths and the internal treatment, Sulphurro introduces Nature 's antiseptic and germicide, Sulphur, into the blood. The result is the passing of Rheumatism and blood, skin and stomach disorders. Bead the Sulphurro book let (accompanying each bottle or sent free on request) and you will understand why. Sulphurro 60c and (1 at all drug stores.
