Rheumatism that Cracked the Swollen Flesh.

The Most Wonderful Cure from this Disease in Modern Medical Annals. Is There Anything to Compare in Misery and

Suffering With It.

From the Chronicle, Chicago, III.

It wan font years ago next month thnt Mrs. M. M. Hoyt, who lives lit 2429 Wentworth Avenue, ciune to Chicago. She was at tlmt time bed-ridden, sutlVring from inflammatory rheumatism and not able to rnise her feet from the floor One of the best physicians in Chicago treated her here three weeks but was unuble to effect even relief. He gave up her ease, believing nothing could be done for her und that tdie hud but a few days to live.

In speaking of her sufferings and the relief and permanent cure effected later she says: "When I was five years oid I was taken down with inflammatory rheumatism, but after a comparatively short time it passed oir, and I was free from all its symptoms until I was fourteen years old. Tlien I had another attack, of which I was cured, and did not have a sick day until four years ago Christmas afternoon 1S!)2. "I had lived twcity-six years in I-U'ling-ton, Michigan, and fourteen years in Manistee, Michigan, both towns being situated on the lake. The weather in both places is even more damp, more raw and in winter colder than it is here. In Manistee formally years I conducted a dressmaking establishment which I carried on until I was taken sick. 1 knew all the prominent people in Manistee and it was hard for me to close my business and leave all the people had known there for years. My four children, all of whom are married, lived in other Suites. One_ daughter lived in Chicago and being advised to change climate I came here. The attack on that Christmas afternoon came without warning. I was suddenly taken with chills and rheumatic fever, which grew worse day by day. Manistee physicians did all they could for me, but I was helpless in bed until the end of May 1893. The physicians advised me to leave the shores of "the lake and especially Manistee. I took their advice and came to Chicago.

Rheumatism was in my hands, my feet and my head, in fact it was all over me besides having heart failure. I could not think of leaving my chair. I was unable to comb my hair, 1 was practically helpless at the time 1 came to Chicago. Do you see all those white scars on my hands? Well, let ine tell you how I got them. My hands became fearfully swollen with the rheumatism and were smooth and shiny just like a piece of glass. The skin by the swelling was stretched to such a point that it burst wherever you see the scars and from the wounds came water for quite a long time. My sufferings were almost unbearable, and I tried the treatment of one of Chicago's o]dest and best physicians. 1 took his medicine for three weeks, but only grew worse. I became so nervous that I could not sleep and my stomach became so weak, whether from the strong drugs or my general debilitated condition I know not, but, it was ditlicult. for me to retain any solid food. He gave up my case and advised me to send for my husband.

I knew by that advice, that he did not give me much longer to live. Instead I went to one of my daughters who lives in the southern part of Indiana, in Elnori, Davis County, where her husband, Asa llaic, was one of the prominent merchants. I believed the climate there, being away from the influences of Lake Michigan might help me. I had been in Blnora about one week, not feeling any better, when one day I received from my daughter in Chicago three boxes of Dr. Williams' l'ink Pills for Pale People, telling me in her letter that she had read in a newspaper of the wonderful cures they had effected. That she had gone to the women the newspaper spoke about and found them and they told her evcrv word said about them was true. She pleaded that I try these pills and perhaps I would find the same benefits. I did not hesitate, as anything that promised relief, let alone a cure I •was only too glad to try. I commenced taking them, two pills three times a day. "For eight months past I had not been able to comb my hair, dress myself or walk,

Churnine Done in One MinuteI have tried the Lightning Churn, you recently described in your paper, and it iR certainly it wonder. I can churn in less than one minute, and the butter is elegant, and you get considerably more butter liiau when you use a common churn. I took tbe agency for tho churn here and every butter maker that see it buye one. 1 have sold three dozen aud they givo tho beet of satisfaction. 1 know I can pell 100 in Ibis township, as they churn so quickly, make so 111 uch mure butter than common churns and aro so cheap. Somo ono in every township can make two or three hundred dollars Belling these churns. Uy addressing J. l'\ Ca60y & Co., St. Louis, you can get circulars and full information so you can make big money right at home. 1 have made 8S0 the past two weeks and I never sold anything before in my life.

Think it Over-

1 lavo you ever heard of a medicine with such a record of cures as Hood's Sarsaparilla. the One True Blood Purifier, has proved, over and over again, that it has power to cure, even after all other remedies fail? If you have impure blood you may take Hooks fearsaparilla witli the utmost conlidence that, it will do you good.

Why is It,

tf catarrh is a blood disease, as some claim, that physicians frequently advise chnnuo of air and climato to those sufferinK? Catarrh is a climatic aireclion, and nothing but a local remedy or a a change of climate will euro it. Ely's Cream Balm is so efficient as to do away with the necessity of leaving home and friends, causing instant relief and is a real cure for catarrh.

and had to be fed during all this time like a babe. Well, the first pills I remember distinctly, I took on a Saturday, and the following Monday 1 found this improvement namely, my nerves seemed to be firmer and niy pain" less. 1 wish to state that at this time, for the last four months 1 had not slept over an hour at a time, had suffered so greatly from nervous pros! rat ion, to the extent that the leas: noise would completely upset me and make me shake like one having tiie ague. This Monday evening 1 was sitting in my chair, and bear in mind, my daughter's house was full of company making more or less noise, rtll tending to keep me nervous. With all that. I commenced to feel easier, a strange ami |iiieting feeling I bad not experienced since that Christmas afternoon I was stricken down. I called to mv daughter and said, 'Ada, I don't know what has come over me, I feel so restful and actually feel sleepy, I think I will try to go to sleep.' I could see that she was surprised and pleased, lining diately she undressed me and put me to bed. "1 slept soundly from 9 o'clock till 1 o'clock in the morning, and that mind you with a house full of people. I remained awake but a short time, feeling better than I had for months, and went into a sound sleep, never waking till 7 o'clock in the morning. It was very hot down therein August, but from that time I slept and resteil well. Then I felt and saw nn improvement gradually going on. The first thing I noticed was, that the swelling in my hands was going down, and after several weeks assumed their natural shape, and the tightly drawn skin, which looked like glass disappeared altogether as well as the pain. Before this time whenever I tried to close my hands my finger joints would crack and the same cracking sounds 1 heard when I bent my elbows or tried to raise my arms as high as my shoulders. All this left me and also all the fierce rheumatic pains all through my body. I came back to Chicago entirely cured, feeling hale and hearty, and that after having used the miraculous Pink Pills of Dr. Williams' for about four months. I suppose I had taken during these four months about one and a half dozen boxes. "It is now over three years ago that all this happened, and I have nevcr'felt better in my life. You can see for yourself that I am pretty spry on my feet. I have no pains, no aches nor anything that would suggest tc me now, the terrible time 1 had then. There is another thing 1 wish to say in regard to the Pink Pills, which to me signifies a great deal. That is when the weather changes, from extreme heat to extreme cold, or from dry weather to raw, damp, chilly weather, as we had the past two weeks, and have every little while in Chicago all the year around, I fuel twinges and little pains in my shoulders or in my arm, or perhaps it may be in my side, all I have to do is to take a few of the pills for a day or so and they take every indication of those pains away. "With the exception of the periods when the weather is frightfully miserable, I have not taken any pills since I was cured. And the pills I Wvc taken since have not been for my old trouble, but simply for colds which have tried to settle in some parts of my body, and which the pills have instantly driven out. I also wish to state that the pills have cured tny heart trouble, and in fact I am in perfect health in every respect." (Signed.) MRS. M. M. HOYT.

One thing that makes it so dangerous is that it is so little understood. If it were better understood, it would be more feared, more easily cured, less universal than it is now.

So those who wish to bo cured take Shaker Digestive Cordial, because it is goes to the root of tho trouble as no other medicine does. The pure, harmless, curative herbs and plants of which it is composed, are what render it so certain and, at the satno time, so gentle a cure.

Awful Tragedy In the Life or Jobs Warwick. Siiere was a hard look in John Warwick's eyes, but it was also a look of triumph, says the Cleveland Leader. He bent over his desk and worked steadily for an hour without saying word to any of his associates.

Finally one of the boys asked him what had happened. "Oh, It's only a little domestic flareup," he said, "but I guess it will turn out all right."

Upon being pressed to relate the nature of the trouble, "Warwick said: "My wife got a pair of bloomers last A'cek, intending to go out to-day for a fifty-mile ride. Now, I have always declared that I would not permit my wife to be seen in public with a rig of that kind upon her person, and I proceeded early this morning to show that I was a man of my word. I got hold of those bloomers and locked them in my trunk. Here," he concluded, defiantly slapping his hip pocket, "is the key!" Every n:::n in the office congratulated him upon the stand he had taken. His employer, a crusty old fellow who seldom spoke to the young men in the service, came around and told him in an undertone that his salary would bo laised at once, as it was evident that Ve was a person of sterling worLh.

Vhen the day's work was ended John Varwick went home with alight heart, 'he announcement of hts prosperity, he •eckoned, would patch up friendly re'ations with his wife, and visions of uture happiness floated before him. iut, alas: the door was locked and the ••'ace seemed to be deserted! He sat down upon the porch and waited for :in hour, but the woman he loved did not return. Then he thought he would put on his old blue overalls and dig iround in his little garden. He felt hat he needed exercise. The key to the kitchen door was under the mat, and he was soon rummaging the clothes closet in search of the overalls. They could not be found. At last he entered his wife's sewing room, and there, upon tiie floor, lay the southern extremities of the suit that had in days gone by served him so well and faithfully. They had been cut off at the knees! John Warwick buried his face in his hands ind wept in wild despair.

C.eorjje G'-iilfT* Ynchtlnjy Trip. The first stop George J. Gould and nis family, who sailed Monday on the dteam yacht Atalanta for a long cruise to the maritime provinces of Canada, will make will be at Portland, Me., ""•'here the j'acht will take supplies. From there her course will be up into the Bay of Fundy. The Atalanta will visit all the small towns on the Bay of Fundy and especially will explore 'A'.c region made famous by Longfellow's "Evangeline," in which Mrs. Cot:ld now takes an absorbing interest. The Atalanta, which draws nearly 12 feet, will go into the basin of Minas nnd see the remarkable rise and fall of iho tides there.

Leaving the basin of Minas the yacht will coast along the southern coast of N'ova Scotia and will arrive in Halifax eventually. After Halifax Mr. Gould's itinerary is not definite, but if the weather proves propitious he will start up through the giu of Canso to the Bras d'Or lakes, returning to Pictou. On the excursion Mr. Gould will take not only his wife and family, but Mrs. Kingdon. his mother-in-law, and one of Mrs. Kingdon sisters. After Piet.ou is reached Mr. C.ould will take an ice •jilot and go to the shores of Labrador.

The ladies of the party will leave the yacht at Halifax or St. John, into whichever port the Atalanta may first put. It will defend entirely upon the reports of the i. pilots at the maritime ports whether Mr. Gould pursues hie course furtlu-r northward and goes to Greenland.

If a long stay be not made in the Bay of Fundy it is thought that the vessel may have an opportunity to reach Cape Sabine, as Mr. Gould much desires to do. At any rate, the Atahtnta's cruise may extend to Arctic explorations or be merely a pleasant, summer trip to the maritime provinces if Cat-SHla.—Chicago Chronicle.

Women Who Wear Loose Glove*. The wearers of tight gloves will be interested to learn that the women •whose hands and arms are famous for their beauty all wear loose gloves. Bernhardt wears long, loose-wristed gloves and her white, beautiful hands are among her charms.

Her hand is in proportion with her figure and she does not squeeze either into tight compresses. She wears large gloves and her hands are lily white and as smooth as a young girl's.—Detroit Free Press.

A woman's~head. aches may come from several causes. She may have a headache arising from nervousness, or from digestive disturbances just the same as a man might suffer for the same reasons. Nine cases in ten, however, her

headaches come from disorders peculiar to her sex. Possibly the apparent cause of the headache will be nervousness or indigestion, while the cause of these is not thought of. The organs distinctly feminine are more vital than any other organs in a woman's body. Any trouble of those affects the whole body. It may show itself in the symptoms which are characteristic of a dozen disorders. Thousands of times, women have been treated for the disorders thought to be indicated by these symptoms, when the real trouble was much deeper and lr.vre serious. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription was compounded for the sole purpose of relieving womankind of the ills and pains very commonly considered the uncomfortable inheritance of her sex. It cures where really good physicians have failed. Thousands of women have testified that after taking treatment from several physicians without benefit, the "Favorite Prescription" cured them completely and quickly. It has been used for over thirty years, and has an unbroken record of success. The afflicted woman will find immediate relief and ultimate cure in the "Favorite Prescription." There is no doubt about it—there is no question about it. The woman who hesitates is invited to send
