“I have worked in an office where

HU RT MI ST DEFINE
MEANING OF “WANT.”
Dictionary Definition a Stumbling
Block for Widow and Executors.
Newark. N. J., July 20. —Because the
executors of the will of the late AA’il
liam P. Coffin disagreed with his wi
dow as to the proper interpretation of
the document, the Court of Chancery
has been invoked to improve upon the
dictionary meaning of th'e word “want.’
It is on the meaning of this word
and its simile, “require,” that Airs.
Coffin and the executors have disa
greed.
The will directs that the widow
(shall have “such sums as side may
want or require,” and Mrs. Coffin main
tains that she wants and requires all
the income during her lifetime. The
executors contend that she is to got
only such amounts as, in their judg
ment, thiey believe she needs for her
comfortable maintenance, and that the
balance should be added to th'e resid
unary estate that a ison and daughter
will eventually inherit.

\0 0 0 CURES
2/. 2 9. Qt. RHEUMATISM
The cause of Rheumatism is an excess of uric acid in the blood. The
uratic impurity gets into the circulation by absorption, usually because of con
stipation, weak kidneys, and other systemic irregularities. Then the blood be
comes weak and sour and irritating urate particles are formed in this vital fluid.
When in this impure condition the blood can not furnish the necessary amount of
nourishment to the different muscles, tendons, nerves and ligaments of the body.
Instead it constantly steeps them in the briny acrid matter, and the gritty, urate
particles collect in the joints, which causes the pains, aches and' soreness of
Rheumatism. Liniments, plasters, etc. may relieve ths acute pain of an attack
of Rheumatism, but such treatment does not reach the blood and therefore can
have no permanent good, effect. There is but one way to cure Rheumatism and
that is to purify the blood of the acid poison. S. S. S. goes into the circulation
an « atta< *s disease at its head. It removes the cause for the reason that it
ine greatest of all blood purifiers. It filters out every trace of the sour, iu
“anunatory matter, cools the acid-heated circulation, adds richness and nourish
ment to the blood and permanently cures Rheumatism. S. S. S. does not patch
up, it cures permanently. S. S. S. is especially valuable as a remedy for Rheuma
tism because it does not contain a particle of harmful mineral in any form. It
is purely vegetable, a fine tonic as well as blood purifier. Book on Rheumatism
