AN INSIDIOUS DISEASE
THAT BREAKS DOWN
Rhenmat ism does not come on in a da}'; the THE STRONGEST
causes that produce it work silently in the system for years. This insidious
| disease beo sues intrenched in the blood, and some exposure to cold or damp
I weather, or slight indiscretion brings on an attack. Poor digestion, stomach
{ troubles, weak Kidneys, torpid Liver, and a general sluggish condition of
f the system are responsible for Rheumatism. Food souring in the stomach
j poisons the blood, the failure of the Kidneys and Liver to act properly leaves
[ waste matter and impurities in the system, which, coming in contact with
I the natural acids of the Ijody, form uric acid. This is absorbed by the blood,
S and as it penetrates to the muscles, nerves and bones produces the terrible
f pains and aches and other disagreeable symptoms of Rheumatism. * Life is
j made a torture by its excruciating pains, nerves are shattered, the health un
dermined, and if the disease is not checked it breaks down the strongest con
stitution. It will not do to depend on plasters, liniments, etc.; such treatment
is helpful in easing the pain and reducing the inflammation, but does not
reach the blood where the real trouble is located. S. S. S. cures Rheumatism
by purifying and invigorating the thin, acrid
blood, driving out all impurities and poisons and
sending a stremn of strong, rich blood to wash
out all irritating particles that are causing the
pain and inflammation. S. S. S. stimulates the
PURELY VEGETABLE. sluggish organs to better action, tones up the
e stomach and digestion, restores nervous energy
and builds up the entire health. S. S. S. cures Rheumatism, whether acute
or chronic, and the cure is thorough and lasting. Book on Rheumatism

the production of cotton for the lea-
son 1004-05 of 12.1C3.000 bales and
that subsequently the bureau of the
census Issued reports showing the to
tal production to have been 13,438,000
bales, both amounts being exclusive
of llnters This showed an apparent
discrepancy of 9.8 per cent, the esti
mate of the bureau of statistics of
the department of agriculture being
apparently that much too small
shown by the actual facts disclosed
by the census reports later on.
“This discrepancy .to the extent. In
dicated, did not actually exist. It
was largely due to the fact that the
census bureau .expressed the produc
tion of tht.year in question In bales
of 600 pounds gross weight, or 478
pounds net weight, as far as square
bales were concerned, such bales con
stituting 98.3 per cent of the crop.
If Mr. Hyde had employed the same
basis as that employed by the census
bureau In reducing his estimate of
the pounds of lint produced In bales
I. e„ bad he given the figures repre
senting production In bales of a gross
weight of 500 pounds each, or a net
weight of 478 pounds each, bis esti
mate would have ^howt* 12,881,000
bales os having been produced. In
stead of 12,163,000 making the discre
pancy between hts preliminary estl*
mate and the final figures of the cen
sus bureau only a trifle over 4 per

are getUnjj-upon a more even footing,

of tho -Twsury Shaw, made publle
the past two years tho
expenditures have been in excess of
fto revenues to the aggregate amount
of $64,000,000, but for tho present
fiscal year the Secretary estimates
that the deficit will be only $8,000,000
His estimate of the receipts and ex
penditures for this period, which will
end on June 30 noxt, is as follows:
Largest Gold Pile In the World.
Another satisfactory condition of
affairs Is found In the country's
great supply of gold. The Secre
tary saj's that the gold in tho Treas
ury, 1 Lauding the reserve and trust
funds, October 9, 1905, amounted to
$736,808,600.36, a sum never equaled
in our annals; nor has any other
Government ever held so much of the
precloud, metal.
Tho tad 1' money In circulation on
itobefi / last, was $2,624,230,391, a
per Capua circulation of $31.3'9. Dur
ing the' year $68,736,793 was added
to the money In circulation to bring
the total up to the stupendous figure
above stated. The Secretary points
out tha$ In order to maintain the per
capita at the present rate the In-
crease In poulatlon In the country
makes It necessary to add about $60,-
000,000 to the monetary slock ' each
year.
. Silver Bullion Needed.
The :, domestlo coinage of the mints
during the fiscal year was 152,432,302
pieces of the value of $91,172,720.83. j

that the bureau of statistics of the de*
