THE M;N-A-LIN CO.,
COLUMBUS, OHIO, U. S. A.
A NEBRASKA LYNCHING.
Louia Higgins, Who Murdered a
Farmer and Hit Wife Last May
Pays Penalty.
Omaha, Auk. 27—Lorls Higgins,
who murdered \V. L. Copple and wife,
farmers, near Kosalle, Neb., May 12,
was lynched at Bancroft Monday.
Sheriff Young of Thurston county,
came to Omaha Sunday night to get
hia prisoner, who had been in the
Douglas county Jail here since his
capture, and took him to Bancroft
on a train which arrived there about
8 o'clock in the morning. TweutV
men took Higgins from the sheriff,
hauled him off In a dray and hung
him to a tree. When the sheriff left
for Omaha Sunday lie was accosted
by citizens of Bancroft, who asked
him what he would do if they should
attempt to lynch Higgins. Shoot the
first man who tries it," be paid. "Well,
we just wanted to know. Chances are
you will have some shooting to do."
Higgins' crime was a wanton one.
He had worked on the Copple farm
and had had some trivial dispute with
Mr. Copple. Anger over this is the
only suggestion of a reason for the
murder. He killed both in the barn-
;• rd with a gun. Me was a young
man and after his arrest became radi-
cally religious, participating in every
service held in the jail.
Shoot' the Passen rs Up.
Philadelphia, Aug. 27.—The forward
truck on one of the passenger coaches
attached to the Pottsville accoranioda-
train of the Philadelphia & Reading
railway Monday jumped a switch on
the west side of the Schuylkill river,
near the approach to the falls of
Schuylkill bridge, this city, and the
entire train narrowly escaped plung-
ing over a GO-foot embankment into
the river. After the truck left the
track the train ran 80 yards, the
('trailed wheels tearing up the road-
ted for the entire distance. The pas-
sengers in the derailed car were
thrown from their seats, but uo one
was injured.
Stopped "Seeing Things."
Enthusiastic Nature Lover (to Re-
formed Tramp)—Ah, my friend, how
well you must know the face of na-
ture, and know it in all its moods.
Have you ever seen' the sun 6inking
In such a glare of glory that it swal-
lows up the whole horizon with its
passionate Are? Have you seen the
mist gliding like a specter down the
shrinking hillside, or the pale moon
struggling to shake off the grip of the
ragged storm cloud?
Reformed Tramp—No, sir; not
Since I signed the pledge.
j Animal Intelligence In Massachusetts.
| John Talbot of Rock Knolls, Mass.,
enjoys the distinction of having a
trained hen that will jump over his
j clasped hands, even if held quite high
from the ground. Uncle John trained
the hen himself. A cat is owned by
a Byfield man that will eat raw green
corn, and will even strip down the
husks in the field In an effort to get
the corn. _
Places of Interest Neglected.
Two of the most attractive places
for instruction in New York city are
the Metropolitan Museum of Art and
the American Museum of Natural His-
tory, yet there are thousands of resi-
dents of New York who have never
been in them, and more than half of
their daily visitors are strangers in
the city. _
In Self-Defense.
Gabriel—Say, what did you let that
pestiferous party in for?
St. Peter (wearily)—He used to be
an insurance agent and I either had to
let him In or bex talked to death.
Prince to Visit Coney Island.
New York, Aug. 27.—Prince Wil-
helm of Sweden is to "le entertained
at Dreamland, Coney Island, on Sat-
urday evening. After dinner at the
Crescent Athletic club with the mem-
bers of the Swedish committee the
prince will be taken to Dreamland in
an automobile. A guard of Swedish
sailors from the battleship Flygia and
an honorary guard of prominent
Swedes and others will file past the
prince to receive the royal greeting.
The procession will lie led by a score
of flower girls of the Swedish Sun-
day schools.
WHAT THE WOMEN WORE.
•f Course the Story Teller Didn't
Really Mean Just That.
A gentleman recently returned from
that quiet little Maryland resort,
Ocean City, has a tale to tell of con-
ditiona that are really sensational.
And the worst of It was that he did
not know they were sensational at all.
He was out calling the other evening,
and the conversation Btarted with the
shirtwaist man, who, the returned
wanderer said, was to be found in
?reat quantities at the summer resort.
Then he told about the habit every-
body down there had contracted of
going without hats. This Is the way
he told it to an interested company:
"You see everybody down there
going about Just the same. The men
never wear coats; they go about in
just their shirts and trousers, and the
women are Just like them."
Peculiar Medical Remedy.
It was stated at an Inquest on a
peasant in a Servian village that the
man died from swallowing too many
bullets, which he was accustomed to
take, in common with all the peasants
In that district whenever he felt ill.
Pew Runaways In New York.
Although New York is a "hitching
postless" city there are fewer runa-
way horses In its streets than in the
average city of one-tenth of its popu-
lation.

RHEUMATISM
CAN NOT BE RUBBED AWAY"
It la porfectly natural to rub the spot that hurts, and when tlie musclesf,
nerves, joints and bones are tUrobbing and twitching with' the pains of
Rheumatism the sufferer is apt to turn to the liniment bottle, or some other
external application, in ail effort to get relief from the disease, by producing
counter-irritation on the flesh. Such treatment will quiet the pain tempo-
rarily, but can liave no direct curative effect on the real disease because it
does not reach the blood, where the cause is located. Rheumatism is more
than skin deep—it is rooted and grounded in the blood^nd can only b*t
reached by constitutional treatment—IT CANNOT Ulv RUBBED AWAY,
Rheumatism is due to an excess of uric .acid in the blood, brought about by
the accumulation in the system of refuse matter which the natural avenue*
of bodily waste, the Bowels nnd Kidneys, have failed to carry off. Tiki#
refuse matter, coming in contact with the different acids of the body, form*
uric acid which is absorbed into the blood and distributed to r.'l parts of tht*
body, and Rheumatism gets possession of t'.ie system. The aches and pain*
are only symptoms, and though they may be scattered or relieved f. r a ti ma
by surface treatment, they will reappear at the first exposure to cold of
dampness, or after an attack of Indigestion or other irregularity. Rlu-uma-
t'sm can never l*e permanently cured while the circulation remains saturated
with irritating, pain-producing uric acid poison. The disease will shift
from muscle to muscle or joint to joint, settling on the nerves, causing
inflammation and swelling and such, terrible pains that the nervous system

renovates the circulation by neutralizing" the acids and expelling all foreign
matter from the system It warms and invigorates the blood so that instead
of a weak, sour stream, constantly deposit-
ing acrid and corrosive matter in the mus-
cles, nerves, joints and bones, the body is fed
and no-urished by rich, health-sustaining
blood which completely and permanently

just what is needed in every case of Rheu-
matism. It contains no potash, alkali or other mineral ingredient, but is
made entirely of purifying, healing extracts and juices of roots, herbs and
barks. If you are suffering from Rheumatism do not waste valuable timo
trying to rub a blood disease away, but begin the use of S. S. S. and write
