Hoffman & Bro. Scotland Neck North Carolina HOW TO CURE RHEUMATISM It lm An Internal Diaeaae And Re quire! An Internal Homed y. The cause of rheumatism and kindred diseases is an exees3 of uric acid in the blood. To cure this terrible disease this acid must be expelled and the system so regulated that no more acid will be formed in excessive quantities. Rheuma tism is an internal disease and requires an internal remedy. RUBBIXG with Oils and Liniments WILL. NOT CURE, affords only temporary relief at best, causes you to delay the proper treat ment, and allows the malady to get a firmer hold on you. Liniments may ease the pain, but they will no more cure Rheumatism than paint will change the fiber of rotten wood. Science has at last discovered a per fect and complete cure, which is called Rheumacide. Tested in hundreds of cases, it has effected the most marvelous cures; we believe it will cure you. Rheumacide gets at the joints from the inside, sweeps the poisons out of the system, tones up the stomach, regulates the liver- and kidneys and makes you well all over. Rheumacide strikes the root of the dis ease and removes its cause. This splen did remedy is sold by druggists and -dealers generally at 50c. and $1 a bottle. In Tablet form at 25c. and 50c. a package. Write to Bobbitt Chemical Co., Balti more, Md. , Booklet free. Tablets sent by mail. FOR SALE BY ' E. T. WHITEHEAD COMPANY Scotland Neck, N. C.

Cbinese wood oil Is obtained from the nut of the wood oil tree by press ing or extracting. The color of the oil varies with the method of extraction. In China it is usually heated strongly and is consequently very thick and black. Wood oil forms a very durable lacquer for wood, far surpassing boiled linseed oil in hardness and perma nence. The oil possesses the peculiar ity of drying more quickly in damp than in dry weather. The residue of the nuts left after the removal of the oil is a good fertilizer, which possess es the valuable property of destroying Insects which feed on the roots of plants. Scientific American. Scottish Miner's Wit. An amusing comment was made by a miner at an ambulance lecture in Elphinstone, East I,otbian. The lec turer had stated that if suffocation from choking was likely to ensue the simplest remedy to give relief till med ical aid arrived was to take a fine pointed penknife and make a small in cision in the throat. One of the miners then shouted: "Ye dinna ken Elphin stone folks. If 1 was to try that the morn here's what wad happen: If that wan Gied his folk wad hae me prose uted for murder, and if he got better he himself wad be the first to prose cute me for cutting his throat."

All the blood in the body passes through the kidneys once every three minutes. The kidneys filter the blood. They work night and day. When healthy they remove about 500 grains of impure matter daily, when unhealthy some part of this impure matter is left in the blood. This brings on many diseases and symptons pain in the back, headache, nervousness, hot dry skin, rheumatism, gout, gravel, disorders of the eyesight and hear ing dizziness, irregular heart, debili ty, drowsiness, dropsy, deposits in the urine, etc. But if you keep the filters right you will have no trouble with your kidneys.

Were the Ones John's Wife Was Sure She Heard Every Night and Whom John Had to Scare Away. There had been a number of bur glaries ia a certain suburban neighbor hood, and the conversatiou at a small whist party turned naturally enough on burglars. Everybody had expressed an opinion except a quiet, elderly gen tleman. "Doesn't it matte you nervous." some body asked him. "to think every night when you go to bed that you may be burglarized before morning?" "Oh. we don't mind them." said the elderly gentleman cheerfully, with a glance across the room at his wife. "We're too well used to them, aren't we, Mary?" "John." said his wife warningly. "don't be silly." "Silly!" echoed lie and turned to the others. "Now, that's her modesty. Those burglars have been trying to go through our house every night for two weeks; always get In through the dining room window too. But Mary hears them. Yes, sir, no sooner do they get through the window than Mary hears 'em and wakes me up. Fortunately for us, Mary is a very light sleeper." "But it must be awful to wake up like that!" exclaimed one of the lis tenera. "Rather disturbing the first night," "continued the speaker, "but not so bad after one gets used to it All I have to do. you know, is to get up and lock the bedroom door, and then the burglars go right back out of the din ing room window. Very methodical they are. too." added the elderly gen tleman thoughtfully, "for they always lock the window after them." Youth's Companion. THE GIRAFFE. Africa's Second Story Worker With the Long Distance Neck. The giraffe Is the second story work er of the ::nimal kingdom. It is a merger of the zebra and the camel and is also a distant relative of the palm tree. The giraffe consists of eight feet of neck equipped with a body at one end and a head at the other. In the matter of neck it has all the rest of the animal kingdom beaten by n length. The giraffe's mouth is located so far from its stomach that it has to eat today to appease tomorrow's ap petite. Many a giraffe has starved to death while the first meal it had eaten for two weeks was slowly traveling its transcontinental esophagus. The giraffe looks as if it had started out to be a zebra, but. having reached the shoulders, had. kept on going. It is very dark in color, marked by yellow ish brown stripes in a handsome lin oleum pattern. It lives on tree tops, eagles' nests' and rainbows. During the Boer war the British army had some difSculty with giraffes, which formed a great liking for war balloons and frequently nibbled them during their flight in order to inhale the gas. Why dees the giraffe have a long distance neck? Persons given to the use of common sense will realize that Africa is rich In Insect life as well a animal life and that all African ani mals carry innumerable parasites on their bides. The giraffe's head Is so far from his body that a long neck Is absolutely necessary in order that he may reach down and grab off a tick from his fetlock when necessary. Even a child could see this. Collier's Weekly. Ko Slavery to Work. Deskins, Va. Mrs. Mary A. Van dyke, in a letter from Deskins, says: "I had serious female troubles, last ing 40 days at a time.
