\r' : RHEUMATISM CAN NOT BE RUBBED AWAY When the joints are sore and swollen, and the muscles throbbing with the pain of Rheumatism, relief must be had at once, and it is natural to rub the affected parts with liniments, oils, etc. This treatment does good in a way, by temporarily relieving the pain and reducing the inflammation, but has no effect on the disease itself, because Rheumatism is more than skin deep; it is in the blood and cannot be rubbed away. Rheumatism is brought on by indigestion, weak kidneys, poor bowel action, stomach troubles and a gen eral sluggish condition of the system should be carried off through the nat ural avenues of bodily waste, are left to sour and form uric .acid and other irritating poisons which are ab sorbed by tue blood, making it thin, weak and acrid. Then instead of nourishing the different nerv'es, mus cles, joints and tissues it fills them with poison to produce the aches, pains and other disagreeable symp toms of the disease. Rheumatism is usually worse in Winter for the reason that cold and dampness are exciting causes. The nerves become excited and sting with pain, the mus cles are sore and drawn, the joints swollen and stiff and the sufferer lives in intense agony; and if the disease is not checked it often leaves its victims helpless cripples for life. Rheumatism cannot be rubbed away ■ but it can be driven from the blood by S. S. S. Being a perfect blood purifier this great remedy soon pro duces a complete change in the en tire circulation ; the thin, acrid blood is made pure and rich, and as it goes through the body nourishes and soothes the irritated nerves, eases the throb bing muscles, and dissolves and carries out of the system the irritating particles in the joints which are keeping up the pain and inflammation. S. S. S. cures Rheumatism permanently, and in addi tion tones up the digestion and stimu lates the different members of the body to their full duty so there is no cause for another attack. Do not waste time trying to rub Rheumatism away, but get it out of the blood with vS. S. S. so that the oold and dampness of Winter will not keep you in continual pain and agony.

The Most Remarkable January Sales Ever Conducted by This Store or in This Community Reduction sales of one sort or another are usual at this season of the year. It is to be expected that Merchants will use every legitimate means to reduce their stocks, to turn their merchandise into money, before inventory, and to avoid the penalties and losses of carrying goods over from one season to another. Cut prices, special sales, and discounts from regular values, abound on all sides; but lest you conclude that this is the ordinary Jan uary Clearance-a mere means of unloading suits and overcoats, getting our money back, or making ourselves whole on the invest ment, we wish tojset out clearly the distinguishing features of this Four-Weeks Campaign. We Have Made the Prices so Low, Reductions so Sharp and Decisive as to leave no question in the mind of anyone who calls here that this is an occasion unlike anything they have seen or known heretofore. There can be no doubt that we mean business, that we are deter mined to clear this store of Winter Wearables regardless of first cost of the goods or their actual worth in the market at this time. First of all we believe strong inducements are necessary to stir people into activity and make this sale a sensational success. We believe that those who have thus far gone without something they would like to have are entitled to a bargain. Where conditions of economy or uses for the money in other directions have prevented a man’s buying a needed article, we believe we shall have to remove the orig inal difficulty—that of price—if we are to serve him now. Again, we shall not be content with selling only those who have postponed their buying—there are Uliu 1111 (k | not enough of them. We have got to make the figures so low, the values so imperative, that those who have already supplied themselves early in the season will be forced to add to their purchases and lay in an extra outfit. Forced, we say, because they can’t afford to let the chance slip—compelled by the sheer strength of the values and the knowledge that they can’t hope to have such an opportunity again. KIRSCHBAUM CLOTHES muuuKnDt 1 V The Sale Begins Wednesday Morning, January 10th, '-rf'V-V /MW and will continue throughout the mouth of January, till every article of this season’s stock is placed in some one’s hands at some price,—however short that price may fall of the original cost to us. 7 Grey ulster Overcoats size 37-42 cheap est,5.oo; Jan. sale price, 2.90. 5 black ulster overcoats, a bargain as sold, 5,00, Jan. sale price 3.48. 9 melton box overcoats the best in town at 10 00, Jan. sale price 6.25, sizes 38-44 5 blue Kersey coats extra long, have been good sellers at 16.50 to go in Jan. sale at 12.50. 7 overcoats in the long mixed new ourist style, several lots represented one or two size of a lot, all 16.50 coats, Jan. sale price 9.75.
