The Bemidji RHEUMATISMAWFUL HOLOCAUST 3 ‘When the joints are sore and swollgn, and the muscles throbbing with the I N M I : 8 [0 . pain of Rheumatism, relief must be had at once, and it is natural to rub the affected parts with liniments, oils, etc. This treatnient does good in a way, | by temporarily relieving the pain and reducing the inflammation, but has no effect on the disease itsclf, because Rheumatism is more than skin deep; it is in the blood and cannot be rubbed away. Rlieumatism is brought on by |indigestion, weak kidneys, poor bowel action, stomach troubles and a gen- | eral sluggish condition of the system_ The refuse and waste matters, which | should be carried off through the nat- ural avenues of bodily waste, are |left to sour and form uric acid and other irritating poisons which are ab- | sorbed by the blood, making it thin, |weak and acrid. Then instead of | nourishing the different nerves, mus- cles, joints and tissues it fills them | with poison to produce the aches, | pains and other disagreeable symp- |toms of the disease. Rheumatism lis usually worse in Winter for the reason that cold and dampness are | exciting causes. The nerves become | excited and sting with pain, the mus- |cles are sore and drawn, the joints |swollen and stiff and the sufferer lives in intense agony; and ii the | disease is not checked ‘it often leaves |its victims helpless cripples for life. ..

Haverstraw, N. Y., Jan. 10.—At least twenty persons are believed to have perished in the landslide which carried several tenement houses down in a clay pit here during the night. Undermined by the shifting clay that had been sutlened by a heavy snow- fall the several homes, with their three score of sleeping occupants, top- pled over the brink of the pit and crumbled to pieces. The houses, which were of wood, were set on fire from overturned stoves and the debris was soon a mass of flames. Some fifty or more tenants escaped with Imore or less serious injuries, while a number variously estimated at from twenty to twenty-five are believed to have been killed cutright or burned to i death. ‘I'he landslide occurred on Rutland stierty, In the east end of the town, two Dblocks of houses are sup- posed to have bheen undermined by woikmen digging clay for brickmak- ing.
