RHEUMATISM'S VICTIMS.
AFTER SPASMODIC EFFORTS F0111, A
CURE USUALLY GIVI4.1 UP. 1
There is One Medicine that has
Cured Thousands after Other
Medicines had Failed ---A Re-
leased Sufferer adds His Strong
Endorsation of this Wonderful
Renaedy.
Trorn the Trenton Courier.
What. an innocent sounding name has
rheumetistn, and yet how terrible a reality,
to thousateds who suffer from it. Doctors
agree that rheumatism results from poison
of and deposits in the blood, but as to 'justli
how they can be reached and eracated, it
would seem that their knowledge fails. The
usual treatment is a long series of medicines
which may give temporary relief, but do not
cure, and then the patient usually,gives
th inking !there is no medicine that will cure
him. This is a Mietake. Rheametism is
not a necessary .evil, and because one is
growing old it is not imperiteive that one
should accept rhetunatism as a natural ac-
,eessery to advanaing years.
There is a remedy for rheumatism despite
• the general belief that it cannot be cured-'
a. remedy that has cured thousands of the
most severe caecs. A noted instance of the
truth of this assertion which has just Come
to theknowledge of the editor of the Goer-
ier, is the case of Robert Francis, Esq.,
formerly of Trenton, now retired from
business in Rat Portage, Ont., and still re-
-siding there. He .-has • been a victim of ,
rheumatism for ever three years. Last
'winter he visited his friends in Trenton. and
was then contemplating a. visit to the south
in search of relief from his constant foe. •
Re had to use a staff in walking and went
at a slow pace. This Christmas he Wati
here again on a visit to his frifrads, smart
and erect and without the stick or sorrow-
ful look of a year ago. His friends and ac-
• quaintaedes aceost him as a new. man and
congratulate him on his healthy, fresh and
active appearance in coutrast with a year
ago. He has cheerfully and gratefully
given the following qatement of hi a efforts
after a care. "My home is at Rat Portage,
Ont., where for years I was engaged in
business, and whete I still reaide. For"
. three years I have been. a great sufferer
from rhettinatie-m. I tried several. highly,
recommended remedies to no purpose, and I
• coutinued to grow worse until it became ai RI -
cult for me to Walk. I was for thirteen
weeks contined to my bed atbotne and in
the Winnipeg hospital. I was then induced
to try the Mount Clement Springs. I took
atr coursesef bathe of twenty-one baths
each without any seeming beneficial result.
I read of several cures in the Conner from
Dr. Williams' Pink Pins for Pale People,
and friends who used them with benefit to
themselves urged me to try them. I- did
so and after a short time I felt an imptove-
meat tny condition. I have taken twelve
boees in all and my improvement has been
continuous and satisfactory, 46 that I need
the cane uo longer and I have increased -my
weight frem 140 pounds to 175 by the use of
Pink Pills. I am not entirely free from.
-rheumatism but I am a new man, one thou-
sand per cent. better than I was a year ago
and I attribute my health entirely to Dr.
Plnk Pills." ! -
Dr. Williams' Pink Pills' strike at the
-root of the disease, driving it from the sys-
tem and restoring the patient to health and
strength. In cases of paralysis, spinal
troubles, locomotor ataxia, sciatica, rheum-
atism, erysipelas, scrofulous troubles, etc.,
these pills are superior to all other treat-
ment. They are also a specific for the
troubles which make the lives of so many
women a burden, and speedily restore the
rich glow of health to pale and mallow
cheeks. Men broken down by overwork,
worry or excesses, will find in Pink Pills a
certain care. Sold by all dealers or sent by

Good Advic
The following advice, give to a young
married woman who was visit d by an older
and more experienced one, may be helpful
to some of our readers :
When the visitor arose to go, the hostess
came with her to the door, ' and out upon
the pleasant piazza, .which, however, looked
a little dusty in the corners.
" Oh, dear," said,the young wife," how
provoking the servants are? I told Mary to
sweep the pizza throughly, and now look
how dusty it is."
"Grace," eaid the older women, looking
into the disturbed young face with kindly
humorous eyes, " I am an old housekeeper.
Let me give you 'a bit of advice: Never
direct -people's attention • to defects.
Unless you do so, they will rarely see them.

clouds are !' or "How bracing the aar is !".
Then I should, have looked up at that as I

A DFew Words of Counsel to
. ' Bicyclers.
When you are riding a bicycle and want
• to pass a wagon in front of you, alwa3s
look on the other side of you, 'always look
on the' other side of the wagon before you
spurt ahead. There will often be another
- wagon or a car on that side moving in the
opposite • direction. The chances are that
the horse, wagon pole or car fender will
strike you square and knock you and your
wheel double. Maybe the collision will kill
you. The history of the numerous collisions
and accidents to bicyclists, ' many of :them
fatal ones, Shows that in a majority of cases
the crash Was due to the cycler's not ob-
seri, ing what was on the other side of the
vehicle or obstructioa he was attem pting
to pass. The car or j wagon. close to him

Verdi's First hinsto.
The first musical sigae made by Verdi
Were 011111101/8. They were in connection
with the street organ, and all the world
knows what it has subsequently suffered
from Verdi being on the street organs.
Think of London alone! Also of the late
Mr. Babbago, and- Mr. Bass' London street
mule bill! An itinerant organ grinder
used to COMO betimes to thei Ronriole inn,
when little Verdi would run to stand and
gaze in wonderment at the :musician and
his music, nor would he leave the attrac-
tion until _fetched away. One especial
favorite with tho child was Baga:eset, a de-
crepit violinist, who predicted to the inn-
keeper that his son would be a great mu-
sician some day. Verdi helped 'this poor
fellow in after years, when the prophecy
had been amply fulfilled.
When Verdi was about 7 years old, his
father added a spinnet, or pianoforte, to
his worldly possessions. The child had
already shown some taste for musio, for,
besides the street music episode, the priest
at Roncole had kieked him down the altar -
steps for paying more attention to the
music from the organ than to his duties
as acolyte, or server, at mass, a post which
his naturally quiet demeanor had obtained
for him. No sooner was the piano in the
, house than young Verdi went at it with a
will until one day, because he could not
find some favorite chord upon the key-
board, he was discovered in great anger
