Spirits for Rheumatism
The use ' of spirits in the treatment etrheumatiim has proved an innovation among the medical profession. When mixed with certain other ingredients and taken nroperly it Is said to be an almost infallible cure for rheumatism and back-ache. Here is the formula. "From your druggist get one ounce of Torls compound (in original sealed package) and ene ounce of syrup of Sarsaparilla compound. Take these two ingredients home and put them Into a half pint of good whiskey. Shake the bottle and take a tablespoonf ul before each meal and at bed-time.' Results come immediately. If your druggist does not have Torts compound in stock he will get it In a few hours from his wholesale house. Don't be influenced to take some patent medicine instead of this. Insist on having the genuine Toris compound in the original ono ounce sealed yellow package.

The Chicago officials had another conference on the question at the war department today and yesterday layed the matter before Secretaries Fisher and MacVeagh for consideration eventually by President Taft.
Gen. Bixby Is manifesting srreat
anxiety concerning the gradual lowering of the levels of the g"reat lakes during the last three years, and has sug gested a reduction of the diversion of water from Lake Michigan for the dilution of Chicago sewage in the drainage channel. John C. Williams, attorney for the sanitary district, charges that, practically the only . navigation Interest which would suffer from a further fall of a foot In the level of the lakes is the steel trust, which owns and controls 90 per cent of the shipping of the lakes and 99 per cent of the deep draft boats.
