A I arty w hich has just sailed on the Kni or Wilhehu tier Groxse with the Kongo Free Slate us its ultimate des tination will prepare for the largest American investment that 1ms ever been made in Africa, If not In the world. The party is sent out by Thomas F. Ryan, the Messrs. Guggen heim and their associates in the com panies organized to exploit the rubber, mining and railroad concessions which were granted last fall by King Leo pold and the I.elgiau parliament, says the New York Sun. The members of the party will remain In the Kongo eighteen months. Long before tbe ex piration of this time. It is expected, mining operations and the manufac ture of rubber will be undertaken on a j considerable scale. Is. I’. Verner, general manager of the lAineiican Kongo company, and A. Che-ter Realty, the well known min iug engineer of the Guggenheim Ex- I ploratiou company, have charge of the i expedition. Mr. Verner has had twelve ; years’ busines experience in the Kou go Free Stale and was special eom- | missloner of the country to the St. Louis exposition. The party will l>e augmented at Cherbourg by men who have ha 1 e p rienoe in the Kongo, some of whom '.ill be selected by Bel gian stookb'.i ,*r.s of the concession aire companies The head pintterx of the expedition for several months after Its arrival at least will I (* Leopoldville, on Stanley pool. From this point long trips will be made ini" the country for the pur pose of si ng favorable locations for settleineir anil the settlin' up of such maelhiiciy as will be required. This w< of •• plorntlon will take up. It Is t! a I'.'lit a great deal of the eur rent year. The expedition will follow’ the river and rail routes as much as possible. When off these routes the leaders wall endeavor with the assist ance of native guides to follow such routes as w'o i lx- practicable for rail road const ruction, for it is proposed to constnn t ; h rail line- as may appear necessary to name economically the products of the country. “As goon a a cei ter for the rubber or the i!

Such treatment will quiet the pain tempo rarily, but can have no direct mirative effect on the real disease because it does not reach the blood, where the cause is located. Rheumatism is more than skin deep—it is rooted and grounded in the blood and can only be reached by (onstitutional treatment—IT CANNOT RP, RUBBED AWAY. Rheumatism is due to an excess of urir ac id in the 1 ■ !, brought alwmt by the accumulation in the system of refuse matter which the natural avenues of bodily waste, the Bowels and Kidm vs, have failed to carry off. This refuse matter, coming in contact with the different acids of the b- dy, forms uric acid which is absorbed into the blood ami d: tribut ’ to all parts of the body, and Rheumatism gets possession of the system. Id ■: aches and pains are only symptoms, and though they may be scattered or reli'-ved for a time by surface treatment, they will reappear at the first exposure to cold or dampness, or after an attack of indigest >n or other irregularitv. Rheuma tism can never be permanently cured v.-h the circe‘ turn r m. ns saturated with irritating, pain-producing uric ;. 1 poison. The ihsease will shift from muscle to muscle or joint to joint -> tiling on the nerves, causing inflammation and swelling and su< h terrible pains tin the nervous system is often shattered, the health undermined, and perhaps lie patient becomes deformed and crippled for life. S. S’. S thoroughly tes the blood and renovates the circulation by neutral:/ !.. theae: is and e.:polling all foreign matter from the system. It warms and invigorates the blood so that in >tead of a weak, sour stream, constantly deposit ing acrid and corrosive matter in the mus cles, nerves, joints and bones, the body is fed and nourished by rich, health-sustaining ® blood which completely and permanently cures Rheumatism. S. S. S. is composed PURELY VEGETABLE of both purifying and tonic properties— just what is needed in every esse of Rheu matism. It contains no potash, alkali or other mineral ingredient, but is made entirely of purifying, healing extracts and juices of roots, herbs and barks.

German observers recorded as long ago as 1747 that a luminous emana tion of variable shape will appear in the dark points on the surface of the earth below which there are extensive ore deposits. Immediately before or during a thunderstorm these phenor.i- ena are said to he especially striking. Similar observations have more re cently been made in North America in the neighborhood of ore deposits. Tbe more time than on any- electric emanation given off from the Ur are confident that we i surface of the earth has been repeat edly ascertained photographically. One man is now living in his own house who joined in Jan uary; made application for loan; paid his due- 75 cents— which was really due February 2. He made this payment as a matter of good faith.
