A. Hendricks RHEUMATISM o= Rheumatism is usually worse in Winter because of the cold and damp- ness and other changed conditions of the climate. The occasional twinges of the disease that are felt during the warmer weather are changed to pierc- ing pains, the muscles become inflamed and swollen, the nerves get sore and excited, the bones ache, and Rheumatism, the terror of winter, takes posses- sion of the system. Then the sufferer turns to the liniment bottle, the woolen clothes, the favorite plaster or some home remedy, in an effort to get relief. But Rheumatism is not a trouble that can be rubbed away or drawn out with a plaster; these things relieve the pain and reduce the inflammation, but do not reach the real cause of the trouble, and at the next exposure an- other attack comes on. Rheumatism is caused by a sour, acid condition of the blood. The refuse matter and bodily impurities which should be carried off through the channels of nature have been left in the system because of indigestion, weak Kidneys, torpid Liver and a general sluggish condition of the system. These impurities sour and form uric acid, which is absorbed by the blood and distributed to the different muscles, joints, nerves and bones, causing the painful symptoms of Rheumatism. S.'S. S. goes to the root of the trouble and cures Rheumatism by cleansing the blood. It neutralizes the acids and filters them out of the circulation and sends a stream of pure, rich blood to all parts of the body. Then [ J ® ® ithe pains cease, the inflammation subsides, the . nerves are quieted, every symptom of the disease PURELY VEGETABLE passes away, and the cure is permanent, S.S. S. is purely vegetable and does not injure the system as do those medicines con- taining Potash and other minerals.

GUT A CLEAN SWATH FEW BUILDINGS LEFT STANDING IN PATH OF TORNADO AT MERIDIAN, MISS. DZAD WILL NUMBER TWO SCORE ONE HUNDRED OTHCRS WERE INJURED AND MANY BUILD- INGS DESTROYED. Meridian, Miss.; March 5.—The loss of life.in the tornado which plowed a | vathway from the southern 'td 'the sastern suburbs-of this city numbers at least two ‘score and more than 100 persons were injured. The property damage is fully $1,000,000. The streets of Meridian are piled high with debris and it may be several days before the full list of the dead can be secured. Many persons are reported missing and are believed to be dead under the wreckage in the business district. The storm broke over the city at 6:27 p. m. and was of four minutes’ duration. During this time a reign of terror prevailed. The wind was fol- lowed by a rainfall lasting half an hour, aiding in the suppression of the innumerable fires that were springing up. The storm came towards the city from the southwest, following the railroad tracks, which pass through Meridian along First street. One of the first buildings to go down was the electric lighting plant and the city was thrown into darkness. Among the other buildings destroyed are the following: The Meridian cotton mill; the Queen and Crescent freight depot; the Lyle Grocery company; the C. M. Rubush lumber yards; the Meyer- Neville Hardware company; the Grand Avenue hotel; the Ogden hotel; the railroad Y. M. C. A. and Elmire’s res- taurant. A large number of . small buildings were either “demolished or damaged. That the death rate is not larger than that given is marvelous, but can be accounted for probably by the fact that many employes of the mercantile houses, depot, offices and other places maintaining large clerical forces had Wm.

The Gardner, who was a former resident of Superior and is now living at Hibbing, is charged with the murder ot William Garrison, a homesteader at Grand Rapids, in July, 1904. Both Garrison and Gardner lived on adjoining claims near Grand Rapids and got into a dispute over the cutting of some hay. 1Gardner claims he shot Garrison in self defense. At the first trial of the case in the district court Ia.t Grand Rapids in December, 11904, Gardner was found guilty and sentenced to tthe Stillwater prison for life. On appeal of the case to the supreme court of Minnesota Gardner was granted a new trial in December last, and subsequently released on bail. Judge Spooner of this city, who sat in the former trial, has called in Judge McClenahan of Brainerd to sit in the case at the coming trial. Homeseekers Excursions yia Chicago Great Western Railway.
