4 V RHEUMATISM COMMON IN SUMMER The time to get rid of Rheumatism ii in Summer while the blood is endeavor ing to purge itself of all poisons and im purities, and the skin is active, with all the pores and glands open and able, in this way, to assist in the elimination. Columbus, O., 1365 Mt. Vernon, Ave. Six years ago I had a severe attack ol Inflammatory Rheumatism, and the doc tors I had did me no good. They changed medicine every week and nothing t hey r rescribed seemed to help me. iMnally left off their medicine and began the use of B. 8. S. My knee and elbow joints were ewollen terribly, and at one time my hands were so swollen and painful that Icould not close them when opened. I was getting discouraged, you may be sure, when I began S. B. 8., but as I saw it was help) ng me I continued it, and to day I am a sound, well man and have never had a return of the disease. R. H. CHAPMAN. The inactivity of the Liver, Kidneys ami Bowels causesthe refuse matter to remain in the system, which, coming in contact with the different acids of the body, forms nric acid to be absorbed by the blood and distributed to the different joints and muscles, producing the pains, inflammation and other distressing symp toms of Rheumatism. The wandering pains of the disease remind the sufferer that the poison is still in the blood and he should lose no time in getting it out. S. S.

They sit at a long table, and the oil of grace runs down upon their pro fessional philacteries. They are pa triarchal. and in their presence many of the younger brethren feel like the prodigal son that spent his patrimony in riotous living. They organize us for the thirty-first time, and many of us are still here—motley and mixed up —dry cattle and yearlings. It is de lightful. And we look at Elbert Aull and Charlie Langston, and say to our selves, “Could two other men be found who would have been so wisely ju dicious, so bravely efficient, so sweet ly, everlastingly generous?” And after the organization, we are turned loose until the morrow—to disitort our selves on the hill side or mountain top—the dry cattle of thirty-one years and the little boys who wear lace socks and short sacks that cover nothing. the blood rich and pure.

And then Lemmie weeps also, and wrings his hands and says: “Col Bacon has practiced withcraft to make the words fade out. but it. is not so, for I love you better and truer than ever.” What a lovely thing it is to be young and unsophis ticated!

For many years Col. Hardwick has been one of the foremost, most honored, most trusted, most efficient officials of th“ great road: and Presf- vlent Aull aptly introduced him to the association as a “high official of that great soulless corporation that has done more for the south than any oth er human agency.” Col. Hardwick is a thin, intellectual. Intensely high-bred man. The beginning of his speech, an exceedingly pertinent tribute to Gen. Robert E. Lee. was a gem of elo quence and poetic utterance, and so turned from a long journey into the a j go wag peoration—thoughts and great progressive fashionable world, and we have learned that the most available time for silent prayer in this world is at the tables of fashionable hotels. Do not fret at the table ser vants because they keep you waiting from five to seven hours. Do not fret at all. They cannot help it—either in America or Europe. Wisely embrace the opportunity for silent prayer and meditation upon your latter end. We have long ago learned to do it.

(Yorkville Enquirer.) Although there is a noticeable steady increase in the number of people who keep bank accounts .the per cent, of people who ought to have such ac counts, but who do not have them, is very large throughout this section. There are numerous farmers who keep $100 or more about their person or homes, where they should never have more than $ r > or $10 at a time, and this surplus cash necessarily gives them much concern. After a man opens his bank account he soon be gins to wonder how the bank people can afford to do so much work for him as they do without charge. He not only finds the bank a source of great convenience, but in a very short time he begins to realize the greater safety of bis surplus cash. There are some oldtimers who have from one cause or another become prejudiced asrains 4 banks; this prejudice is rapidly dying out. It should have been dead years ago. for it lives now only at the ex pense of those who still harbor it. Perhaps a woman wears tight shoes to enable her to forget her other miseries.
