OXFORD PUBL1G LEDGER. li The liniment bottle and flannel strip are familiar objects in nearly every household. The3r are the weapons that have been used for generations to fight old Rheumatism, and are about as effective in the battle with this giant disease as the blunderbuss of our forefathers would be in modern. warfare. Rheumatism is caused by an acid, sour condition of the blood. It is filled with acrid, irritating matter that settles in the joints, muscles and nerves, and liniments and oils nor nothing else applied externally can dislodge these gritty, corroding particles. They Were deposited there by the blood and can be reached only through the blood. Rubbing with liniments sometimes relieve temporarily the aches and pains, but these are only S3rmptoms which are liable to return with every change of the weather ; the real disease lies deeper, the blood and system are infected. Rheumatism cannot be radically and permanently cured until the blood has been purified, and no remedy does this so thoroughly and promptly as S. S. S. It neutralizes the acids and sends a stream ol rich, strong blood to the atiected parts, which dissolves and washes out all foreign materials, and the sufferer obtains happy relief from the torturing pains. S. S. S. contains no potash or other mineral, but is a perfect vegetable blood purifier and most exhilaiating tonic. Our physicians will advise, without charge, all who write about their case, and we will send free our special book on Rheumatism and its treatment.

Nay, don't forget the old folks, boy, they've not forgotten you; Though years have passed since you were home, the old hearts still are true; And not an evening passes by they haven't the desire To see your faces once again and hear your footsteps nigher. You're young and buoyant, and for you Hope beckons with her hands, And life spreads out a waveless sea that laps but tropic strands; The world is all before your face, but let your memories turn To where fond hearts still cherish you and loving bosoms yearn. No matter what your duties are nor what your place in life. There's never been a time they'd not assume your load of strife; And shrunken shoulders, trembling hands, mid forms racked by disease, Would bravely dare the grave to bring to y ou the peart of peace. So don't forget the old folks, boys they've not forgotten you; Though years have passed since you were home, the old hearts still are true; And write them now and then to bring the light into their eyes, And make the world glow once again and bluer gleam the skies.

Use this great medicine regularly, and its invig orating powers will fill your declining years with health, strength, and happiness. Read what George F. Morse, 67 years old, writes: Wells & Richardson Co., Gentlemen: Just a word in favor of Paine's Celery Compound, hoping it may catch the eye of some afflicted person, and they may receive the same satisfactory benefit. Some 15 years ago I had a combination of malaria, chills and fever, and grip, which con tinued for a year or more; meantime I lost in weight about 60 pounds, trying different medi cines and doctors with unsatisfactory results. Paine's Celery Compound was recommended, and, after using a little I began to improve, gaining about a pound a week. In a year I had regained 50 pounds of the lost weight and good health, and have been a well man ever since. Yours truly, GEORGE F. MORSE.

One of the principle objects of our beloved order Is to extend to our brethren when they are "passing through the deep waters of afflic tion" words of sympathy. The home of one of our best beloved mem bers nas been invaded by the Angel of Death, and a loying, devoted and tender wife and mother has been taken unto the Father. Mrs. Annie Gordon Hunt, wife of our brother, J. S. Hunt, died on the 24th day of Nov., 1902. Her death to us seemed untimely, but we bow in humble sub mission to the will of Him "who doeth all things well," and desiring to assure our brother that his sorrow is shared by us, therefore resolved 1st. That Brother J. S. Hunt has the deepest sympathy every member of this Ijodge in his bereavement, and we tender to him our words of comfort and consolation. 2nd. That a copy of these resolu tions with the seal of the Lodge at tached be sent to Brother Hunt by our Secretary, and that the Public Ledger be requested to publish the same. B. S. ROYSTER, H. M. SHAW, J. C. HASKINS, Committee. Wallace White, Sec. Subject of DrinKing. Mr. Editor: I wish to say a few words on the subject of drinking as we are going to have a government still soon. We claim to be free men, although every man must consider the dangers to personal purity through even occasional indulgence in wine or strong drink, but even if one is strong enough and sure that he can drink in moderation there is always the sin of setting an example that f ill cause some weak brother to fall into sin ; nor are we relieved of responsibility because those who are influenced by us are too weak to withstand temptation, and their weakness is the very reason for our being strong enough to avoid setting them a bad example. Paul's verse might read : If wine or strong drink make my brother to offend I will drink no more wine or strong drink while the world standeth, We all know these things do make others to offend, then If we believe Paul spoke the mind of God no christian ought to keep up the example of drinking too much. If this example cannot be estab lished or the whiskey business blot ted out of existence I believe it would be best to let every man make all the brandy, whiskey, rum or wine he wants, then I believe there would be less money spent, lees lying and less drunkenness. 1 think it would be more than probable that men would live long enough to see their error, even in drinking pure wThiskey in stead of drinking so much concen trated lye. WTith best wishes to the editor and his Interesting paper, I will close for fear this will go to the waste-basket. Your friend, J. H.

It was after night as he hurried his team along, at a bridge over a river he stood up on the wagon and "'peeled" and threw the despised old suit in the water. Then he reached for his new clothes. They were gone had jolted out of the wagon. The night was cold and his teeth chattered as he hurried home. He surprised Eliza even more than he anticipated. Omaha Mercury.

C, Has been given up as the place for farmers to sell their tobacco Each pile, good or bad, fine or common, brings top market price every sale no piles neglected, no piles overlooked. Glad to say that wrappers continue to sell well and, along with other grades, always bring top-crust prices on the Johnson floor. The rich and the poor, the big farmer and the little farmer, receive equal justice at the Johnson. I have no " special pets " but am surely a true friend of all. If hard work daring the new year, honest dealings and highest market prices for every pile and all grades of tobacco count for anything, then everybody should sell at the Johnson. Sure as you are born the Johnson Warehouse is the place to sell tobacco. I take this opportunity to warmly thank my farmer friends for their very liberal patronage during the year just closed, with the hope that I shall continue to merit their confidence and esteem. Wishing each and every one a happy and prosperous New Year, I am, Yours very truly, v Z. W.
