The cause of rheumatism arid kindred diseases is an excess of uric acid in the blood. To cure thi3 terrible disease this acid must be expelled and the system so regulated that no mora acid will bo formed in excessive quantities. Rheuma tism is an internal disease and requires an internal remedy. RUBBING vith 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 euro Rheumatism than paint will change the fiber of rotten wood. Science has at last discovered a per fect and complete cure, which is called Rheumaclde. 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 stomaeh, regulates the liver and Sidneys 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 botUe. In Tablet form at 25c. and 50c. a package.

Your other Burial Cases! 1. a, rr G ROAD WATER DJTCH. u23SGt!ons By a New York Highway Superintendent. Fred. C. Evans, superintendent oi highways in Tompkins County, New York, is constantly advising the town superintendents cf his county concern ins methods and details which shall enable them to do more effective work. Figure No. 1, illustrates his idea of the form of a ditch which must carry water for any considerable "distance. It should be well below the base line cf the road and deep" and narrow. If the roil is soft it should be paved witi cobble stones. Figure No. 2 shows a ditch which he considers proper for the treatment of a wet, or swampy place. This ditch is lor the upper side of the road, and should be broad and comparatively shallow, so that the water will seep into it from the contiguous soil, and be carried off. Figure No. 3 represents a cheap but substantial form of culvert, a number of which have already been put in on the earth roads of Tompkins County. It is a culvert made of field stones, built over a collapsible form, the stones being laid in mortar. The forms are made in two parts, meeting at the apex of the arch, and temporar ily fastened at the bottom by a strip cf board nailed across. Under each side of the form is a blocking which, when knocked or pulled out permits the forms to collapse to an extent that they can easily be removed. The forms are made in sections, all on the same radius, so that the culverts may bo made of any desired size according to the number of sections used. The economy of this culvert, ac- Evans, lies in the fact sPcrt.cn c'ferm 4. TOVT.E S. PIsrs of a Read Watch Ditch, that the material costs nothing, and the labor can be per formed by unskilled persons, without taking much time. Stones are plenty, and can be had for the picking; every farmer has a little lime about, and sand is prevalent, so that their con struction is easy. Many of these culverts have already been installed, on the earth roads of the county, and Mr. Evans expects that they will shortly displace the plank sluices and culverts on the mora remote roads, and be occasional ly used on the improved roads. A Kansas Proposition. The people of several counties in Southern Kansas are agitating the proposition to construct a road along the valley of the Arkansas river from Hutchinson to Garden City, a distance of 180 to 200 miles. The newspapers along the pi'oposed route have taken up the matter, and the public seems to be becoming inter ested. A convention, to consist of the various county officials is suggested at Hutchinson in the near future, and the county engineer of that county, Reno, is reported as preparing the de tails of the meeting. A number cf lateral lines are sug gested, reaching various county seats, and other cities from the main road. This being a purely agricultural re gion, the name chosen for the road, "the valley speedway," seems unusual. Such a road system if constructed, would be cf great benefit to the region, enabling the farmers to market their crops with greater facility and at re duced expense. This road would pass through a section where a number of roads are being constructed by tha sand clay method. Effects of Bad Reads. In a letter from Prof. George R. Chatburn, head of the department of applied mechanics cf the University of Nebraska, he states: "In my twenty-five years' experience in Nebraska I have never seen the roads as bad as at present. During the month of No vember we had the unprecedented rainfall of nearly 10 inches; if we add the last week in October and the first in December we will have at least two more. The mud had been worked up to such a state of plasticity that I have seen wagons on the streets of Lincoln with the wheels apparently solid. While in this condition there came a freeze and a foot of snow on top of that. The roads are impassable for anything except very light loads. Coal dealers, instead of delivering in 2-ton lots, are delivering in half-ton lots to houses off the paved streets. Hay has risen from $7 to $14 per ton, eggs, butter, and other farm products are out of sight." Saved Her Cwa Life. Lebanon Jet., Ky. Mrs Minnie Lamb, of this place, says, " I believe I would have been dead by now, had it not been for Cardui. I haven't had one of those bad spells since I com menced to use your medicine." Cardui is a specific medicine for the ills that women suffer.

Theirjlncrpasing' Work Keeps Us Strong and Healthy. All the blood in tha body passes through the kidneys once every three minutes. The kidneys filter the blood. They work nfeht 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 dis eases and symptons pain in the back, headache, nervousness, hot dry skin, rheumatism, gout, gravel, disorders of the eyesight and hear ing, dizziness, irregular heart, de bility, drfiwaines?, c!rop?y, deposits in t':e mine, etc. Hut if you keep the filters right you will have no trouble with your kidneys. Mrs. E. N. Nelson, Eighth & Roanoke Streets, Scotland Neck, N. C.,says: "I have no hesitation in recommending Doan's Kidney Pills, as I know them to ho a remedy of merit in cases of kidney trouble. I got my supply of this preparation at E. T. Whitehead Co.'s Drug Store and its use relieved rne of backache and lameness in my loins." For sale by all dealers. Price 50 cents.

Guests t This Hotel Do Not Pay. Essen, Germany, has a hotel a Crsi-class hotel at which the princi pal guests never have to pay for their accommodations. It is owned by Frau Eertha Erupp, the richest wom an m Germany, and owner 'Of the groat Krupp works, at Essen. She runs it at a loss of more than $100,000 a year. This hotel was built by Frau Krupp for the entertainment of the representatives of foreign Govern ments who vieit Essen for the purpose of purchasing war material or who stay at Essen to superintend the exe cution of orders. Emissaries from the Emperors of Japan and Russia, from the Kings of Roumania, Bulgaria, Spain, Norway and Sweden, as well as from the Presidents of the Central and South American republics, have been enter tained at the Krupp hotel for months at a time in the most princely style. Ordinary travellers sometimes can find accommodations at the Krupp hotel, but only when the rooms are not required for Frau Krupp's for eign oOcial guests. Intsmst'ona! Manners.
