How the agonizing pain of an acute
attack of rheumatism was eased, and

of fresh, germ-destroying blood begins
tingling through the aching place. Be

It was a frequent remark of a late Franklin man that whenVer anybody tried to "start
something" too many people were ready to "step on the tail of progress and holler 'whoa.
That was in the old days. Today we may "step on it" but we don't know the meaning of
the word "whoa."
