III KXOS AiltKS. Belief that a
widespread inteniiUioual organiza
tion is at work stealing merchandise
(n.tn steamships is expressed ili a re
port of the Tinted States chamber of
commerce in Argentina. The cham
ber investigated the loss of valuable
merchandise by pilfering from ships
plying to this port and found "that
the same characteristics are visible in
thefts of merchandise from Italy,
Spain, and Kngland as from the I'nit
ed Stales."
The investigation was made at the
request of the allied chamber of com
merce which asked all the members
to make similar investigations.
"The increase in pilferage during
the past few months had been ularm
ing." says the report. "An effort was
made to deduce from tiie evidence re
ceived the value of the goods stolon,
but this was impossible altho in gen
eral terms it would seem to run into
hundreds of thousands of dollars
gold.
"One curious feature developed
which was that pilferage occurs with
frequency in articles sent by parcels
post, for which there is no recourse if
no value has been declared.
"Tho thefts have all the character

Kheuniatism is a sturdy foe, and
it never uses gentle methods with its
victims. So if you are afflicted with
1 he disease, you may as well realize
from the first that yo.i have a real
fiht on your hands and that you
cannot win unle.-s you can u.-e the
very best methods known.
If the disease was confined to the
surface, t here might be some logi"
in expecting relief from its eluLhes
by local applications applied to the
surface. Hut you will soon learn
that a disease that can cause so
much pain and suffering is deep
sealed and has its source far below
the Hiirfaee of the skin. The pains
may be .slight at first, and that is
where the victim of rheumatism is
often deceived.
He does not feel that the first
little iwinges of pain amount to
much, and hence they are not prompt
ly heeded. Itut they gradually in
crease in severity until it has your
entire system in it's relentless grip
The pains that seemed so slight at
lirst become intensely severe and
seem to take delight in your suffer
ings. Of course thero has been case.?
where some slight relief was exper
ienced from the use of liniments and
other lo.-al applications, but there
has never yet been a case that was
actually cured by such treatment,
and temporary relief is very far from
comforting to a constant sufferer.
The only sensible treatment from
j which you can expect real results is
j a remedy that goes deep down into
j the blood supply, and kills the germs
i that cau.-o the disease. These tiny
, germs multiply by the millions and
scatter by means of the blood circu
; laiiou thruout the entire system.
J Whether they attack the muscles,
; the joints, limbs or other parts of the
body, they are still in Iho blood, and
I will continue to spread their tortur
ing pains until eliminated thoroughly
from the blood.
S. S. S. is a wonderful blood rem
edy, and is ho logical treatment for
rheumatism, because it promptly per
meates the entire blood supply and
'searches out and kills the disease
j germs. You can take S. S. S. with
the as.Miranco that you are not ex
' perimenting, for this fine old remedy
! has been in constant use for more
I than fifty years, during which timo
! it has been giving splendid results,
j So you owe it to yourself to take S.
S. S. without delay, and discard the
use of local remedies that can do you
no good.

advice, it can be obtained without
cost together with valuable literature
