It nls dwelt upon the advantage wliich would result both to tho State and to himself through such a visit. The acceptance of the invitation is 111 accordance with Judge Taft's well-defined plan to impress upon the South the necessity of becoming practical in politics. Ilf is to bring his administration into close touch with the South, according to his declarations and hopes to bring the South to realize the necessity of itself taking a hand in national affairs.

The invitation was extended personally by a delegation which visited Mr. Taft from that city. Tn declining, the President-elect snid that to accept meant that he would have to give up the balance of. the time between now nnd his ti-ip to Panama in visiting Southern cities as he had pressing invitations from nearly all of tliern, nnd to accept one nnd reject another would cause dissatisfaction.

Lahm, one of the first of aeroplanists and the father of Lieut. Lahm, in command of the army's aeronautic experimental station, began his campaign to interest capital in the "Wright aeroplane. Mr. Lahm, though for thirty years a resident of Paris, is still a loyal American and believes end hopes that the Wright method will be adopted by the nations. He said that it was Gtted for both commerce and war. Mr. Lahm believes that the world will Epeedilv recognize the fact that the age of aerial navigation has come. In speaking of his experiences with Wilbur Wriglit^^ France, Mr. Lahm sai^: > . "I once went ltnT j\bove tin I ground with Mv.^Wruiit.

When we came down at the rate of nearly a mile i minute I might have been disturbed if I had not seen Mr. Wright make so many landings without aeciden! that it seemed preposterous that we should not land easily.

"I expect to see a Wright machine make a flight across the English Channel and back before the end of spring. I believe that even in France, which is five years ahead of America in aviation, it will be difficult for the most optimistic to realize the possibilities in store for the aeroplane commercially and from the viewpoint of war." Mr. Bishop said that the Wrights had taken France by storm. He understood that Orville Wright, now recovered from hiR accident, would sail from here next week. He will establish a school of aviation at Pau. Tlio brothers will manufacture aeroplanes in France on a large scale. The best machines will cost $5,000 and the smallest about $1,000.

The cause of Rheumatism and kindred liseases is an excess of uric acid in the >iood. To cure this terrible disease this icid must be expelled and the system so -emulated that no moroucid will be formed n excessive quantities. Rheumatism is an nternal disease and requires an internal emedy. Rubbing with Oils and Liniments , vill not cure, affords only temperory relief Lt best, causes you to delay the proper rcatmcnt, and allows the malady to get a inner hold on you. Liniments may ease he pain, but they will no more cure Rhcunatism than nnmt will change the librc >f rotten wood.

A grotesque and foolish view of the iVest leads many who are not ac- 1 [iiainted with that part of the eoun:ry to perpetrate amusing bunders egarding the possibilities of tile typcal Western weapons, the rifle and he six-shooter. To shoot an animal's >ye out at "a hundred paces" is a omnion feat in Wild West literature, sometimes it is done with n viv_?lwi?i ir?in typo; not anywhere else. OP nurse, no man can sec the eye of an mimal that far. I have had a good ifleman tell me he could cut oft a obin's head at a hundred steps. The ruth is that he could not see the head dearly thnt far.
