travel, residence and occupation.
BECAUSE it pays liberal annual dividends to its policy

Dablihotoh, 8. C., Aug. l»th, 1906.
GentlemenAbout two years ago I
had a very severe attack of inflamma
tory rheumatism. I suffered great pain
and was confined to my bed for flve
weeks. During the time I was treated
by two Physicians without permanent
r^ef., tapt. Marker, a conductor on
the Atlantic Coast Line heard of my
condition and sent me two bottles of
Kheumacide.’’ I began to take It
and in a week I got up and walked on
crutches. After taking three bottles of
the remedy I got entirely well and
went back to my business.
I personally know of a number of
other bad cases that were cured by the
use of your medicine, in this town and
vicinity. It is all that you claim for it.

of pearl set in gold. On the third
finger of the right hand the huge em
erald pontifical ring sparkled. In
striking contrast with the ghastly face
was the purple hood, drawn down over
the head, almost to the eyebrows, and
over the ears. The sunken cheek and
Jaws brought the nose and chin near
ly together on the mouth, which was
reduced almost to uothing, though no
signs of agony were visible. It was
the corpse of a man who might have
been dead 50 years.
Guards Stood Like Statues.
On either side near the shoulders
stood a member of the noble guard,
erect an)l motiooiless, only a faint
quiver of the drawn swords giving any
indication that they were not mere
statues.
At the four corners of the bed stood
lighted candles, 10 feet high. On
the right of the body, close to the bed.
was a small table covered with a white
linen cloth, on which were two candles,
throwing a glimmer of light on the
crucifix between them. On the cross
is a crystal bowl, filled with holy wa
fer, from which each cardinal when
ever he passed, sprinkled It and ut
tered a benediction. Besides this
were the devotional books used’ by
Pope Leo in his lifetime. The silence
was only broken by the solemn chant
ing of six Franciscan penitentiaries,
whd. kneeling or standing at a bench
at the foot of the bier, continued their
incessant supplication.
The only light thrown on this sel
emn scene came from the candles be
side the body and from the faint rayfl
of sunlight,.which filtered through the
two windows, curtained -with white
silk and rich green hangings.
Royal Splendor to Surroundings.
The red damask tapestries with
which the room was hung gave a
touch of royal splendor to the sur
roundings. Otherwise it was an al
most simple scene, for Che death rites
of a pope. There was no carpet on
the marble floor, and not a flower was
to be seen, according to the strict rit
ual of the last honors of the church
to a pontiff.
As each lay or clerical dignitary en
tered the throne room he advanced
slowly to the side of the bed, took
one last look at the body and then
withdrew. Some persons knelt in mo
mentary prayer and crossed them
selves. It was the last tribute of af
fection and devotion rather than any
outward homage to the great head of
the church. Outside the throne room,
the long corridors of the Vatican pre
sented a brilliant spectacle. At the
entrance of the court of St. Damaso
pontifical gendaTOieg wore drawn up
anil rendered military honors aa each
carriage drove in.
The diplomats wore full uniforms,
and the princes and other« were dress-
‘ ed in deep black.
From the St. Damaso court they
passed up the marble staircase into
the Clermontino hall, w-fiere the Swiss
guard was ranged in double columns
on either side. Next they entered the
- hall of Palafremieri. Here 25 grooms
in red livery led the way to the hall
o f the Swiss, where a company of gen-
dames, wearing heavy black chapeaus,
skin tight white trouaere and high cav
alry boots stood on guard at the
threshhold of the ante-chamber, con
taining a platoon of the Palatine guard.
Further along they paseed through the
hall of tapestry and the chapel of the
pope. The noble guard hi full scarlet
uniforms, glittering brass helmets and
silver sashes, the latter covered with
crepe, kept the last watch at the
door of the apartment of their dead
master.
Crowds Outaido Vatican,
Outside the Vatican an interested
crowd, including a number of Ital
ian soldiera, watclfed the coming and
going of the privileged mourners. In
the meanwhile the Congregation of car
dinals met in the hall of the consistory
ing on tin* front a wreath in relief and
twenty-five convex disks for the names
of the winners of each year. The panel
at the top bears the words “Dryden
Trophy.” The letters themselves will
be of 14 carat gold in relief. The fig
ures of the infantryman (on the left)
and marine (on the rightt will be in full
relief. The coat of arms of the state
at the top will also be in full relief.
The panel at the bottom bearing the in
scription will be of bronze. The trophy
will be open to teams from the army of
the United States, one team from the
troops stationed within each of the mil
itary departments; United States navy,
