The feature of the Cabinet meeting to-day was the decision to close permanently the postoffice at Indiauola, Miss., from which the postmaster, Minnie M. Cox, colored, resigned under com pulsion a few days ago, since which time the office has been closed. The bondsmen have brought the matter to the attention of the authorities here with a view to being relieved of the responsibility of accumulated mail.

C, Aug. 16, 1902. Gentlemen : I began to suffer from rheumatism about three years ago, and had it very bad in my limbs. At times I could hardly walk. Was treated by a physician without benefi t. More than a year ago, Mr. George Wilson, an engi neer on the Coast Line, living in Flor ence, told me that "Ehbumacidii" cured him. I got a bottle and it bene fitted me. I took: five bottles and am now as well as I ever was in my life. X regard "Rheumacidk" as a great medietas. I know of others it has cured. Truly, 8. T. BTJRCH. i DarIjIngtow, S. C, Aug. 19th, 1902. Gentlemen: About two yars ago I had a very severe attack ot inflamma tory rheumatism. 1 suiTored great pain and was confined to my bed for five weeks. Dnrintr the linu' I was treated by two Physicians without permanent relief. Capt. Marker, a eniasJi-ictor on the Atlantic Coast Line heard of my condition and snt me two bottles of 'Rhi-.ctmaciie " I began to take it and i.i a week I got up bod walked on crutches. After taking three bottles of the remedy I got entirely well and went back to my business.
