Rheumatism Rheumatic pains are the cries of protest and distress from tortured muscles, aching joints and excited nerves. The blood has oeen poisoned by the accumulation of waste matter in the system, and can no longer supply the pure and health sustaining food they require. The whole system feels the effect of this acid poison ; and hot until the blood has been purified and brought back to a healthy condition will the aches and pains cease. Mrs. James Kell, of 707 Ninth street, N. H., Washington, D. C. writes as follows: “A few months ago I had an attack of Sciatic Rheums* ttsm in its worst form The

Ewas so intense that I me completely pro*, d The attack was an unusually severe one, and iny condition was regarded as being very dangerous. I was attended by one of the most able doctors in Washington, who is Miso a member of the faculty of a leading medical college here. He told me to continue his prescrip-

tions and I would get well. After having it filled twelve times without receiving the slightest benefit, I declined to continue his treatment any longer. Having heard of S. S. S.(Swift’s Specific) recommended for Rheumatism, I decided, almost in despair however, to give the medicine a trial, and after I had taken a few bottles I was able to hobble around on crutches, and very soon thereafter had no use for them at all.

Two of the special articles in the April number of McClure’s Magazine are very fitting to this season when the new life of nature in the Spring draws our thoughtH from cities, merchandise and men to field and wood. The first of these is a wonderful story of the beaver, written by William Davenport Hulbert after a long study of the animal in its home amid the wilds. The author’s account is made complete by a series of pictures drawn bv A. Radclvffe Diigmore. an artist sent into the I waver country for this purpose bv the Magazine. The second article is by Martha McCulloch-Wil-liams, and in it she gives us a georgic on ‘Ploughing.” Tne reader is borne by the magic of her sympathetic art into a day’s life on the farm, with scent of clover, song of birds, glint of sun and sweet smell ol fresh furrows. The illustrations of the article are as delightful as they are distinctive.

Can you describe anything worse than a young person dying by inches with consumption, cut eff in the bloom of youth, w hen bright prospects of happiness and prosperity are before them. A very sad death’ indeed. Is it not a fact that most cases of this kind are brought about by a cough, only slight at first, then more violent, followed by night sweats and a gen oral breaking down of the entire system. These are cases in which people are to blame. Why not check this slight cough, Dr. Marshall’s Lung Svrup is guaranteed to cure. It will prevent consumption. Use it before it is too late.

FURTHER ACTION UNNECESSARY Investigation of the Booz Haling Case Is Closed. Washington. April 2.—The findings of the military court of inquiry which investigated the treatment alleged to have been accorded to th* late Oscar I. Boor,, a former cadet at West Point military academy, have been made public at the war department. The findings of the military court are summed ip in a letter written by Secretary Root, which accompanies the report. The letter says: “The findings of this court of Inquiry, which are sustained by the evidence. show that tiie statements which led to the convening of the court to the effect that Cadet Oscar L. Booz came to his death by reason of Injuries received by hazing nt the academy, were not true. They show that at the time Cadet Booz was a member of the academy hazing was prevalent there to a deplorable extent; that the present officers of the academy have shown commendable energy, zeal and efficiency in detecting and punishing offenses of this character and that they greatly decreased tho practice and improved the public sentiment upon the subject. The tipdlugs of the court were placed in the hands of the committee of congress charged at about the same time with the Investigation of the subject, and the beneficial action of that committee following by legislation on the subject contained in the act of March 2, 1901, renders further action by the department unnecessary.” FEMALE SLAVERY Galvestion Grand Jury Reports Against an Importing Society.

The investigation brought to light the fact that these women are nothing more than slaves, and that they are held under oath and contract in France and brought to this country and sold as property among the men composing a sect or society.
