Rheumatism is a specific bloorl fermentation, a souring
of the circulation from an excess of uric acid accumulating
in the blood stream. This uratic impurity comes usually as
aresult of constipation, weak kidneys, indigestion and stom
ach disturbances. Those systemic irregularities may not be
of marked severity or of long duration, but each has a direct
effect on the eliminative members of the body, which prevents
tlie proper removal of life waste products. This refuse re
mains in the stomach and bowels, aud souring forms uric
acid, which the blood quickly absorbs.
Rheumatism is usually manifested in the joints and
muscles. It is here its sharpest twinges of pain are felt, and
stiffening of ligaments and tendons first commence. The
pain of Rheumatism is caused by the contact of the sensory 'jh
nerves with the gritty, acrid formation which uric acid causes '- i ''
to accumulate in the corpuscles of the blood about the joints. The stiff
ening of muscles and joints is usual!” gradual. Constantly the blood
deposits the uric acid into tlie joints, aud slowly the natural fluids are dried
up and destroyed. Then Rheumatism becomes chronic and serious. Rheuma
tism is sometimes inherited,, for likeail
blood diseases it can be transmitted to
offspring. This explains why some
persons are afflicted with the disease,
and suffer its pains, who have otherwise
been perfectly healthy.
S.S.S. cures Rheumatism and cures
it permanently. It goes into the circu
lation, and removes the uric acid,
purifies the blood, and in this way
destroys the cause. S. S. S. changes
the blood from a sour, acid-steeped
stream to a rich, healthy fluid, which
quiets tlie excited nerves, eases the

RHEUMATISM FORTY YEARS.
I suffered with lumbaero for a
long- time, and speaking of it to a
friend one day he told me to try
S. S. 3. I did bo, aud soon found
it was helping mo. I had rheuma
tism for more than forty years,
having contracted it in the army,
but S. S. S cured me sound and
well, and have had no return of
the trouble. I think S.S.S. has no
equal for curing rheumatism.

In [lie presence of an interested
throng of spectators the novel and en

students made all manner of tools,
grinding and polishing steel, making
razors, fire pokers, chisels, woodwork
of every kind. All this work wa3

You have met and overcome dUB-
cultles that would have required years
of accomplishment on the part of those
with less courage and resolution.
"I congratulate you on having one
of the most efficient and profitable
agricultural and :> dustriat schools In
Georgia, and in this 1 measure ruy
v orris not wothout knowledge of what
I am saying. You have, as I under
stand, tsree essential departments:
The agricultural, the mechanical and
the domestic depa-tmems. Ani we
have seen with our own eyes the ex
cellent products of all of these.
“We have seen liow the sail has
been made to respond to skillful and
intelligent cultivation;! we have seen
how crude iron and steel and wood
and other raw material has been skill
fully wrought into useful Implements.
And—above all—we have seen how
the feminine band can govern and con
trol the domestic affairs a'nd tame the
niuley cow.
"God bless them; may their ranks
increase.
"Here on th’s farm is a place for
a sensible man of ambition to find
him a model wife—and I may say that
it is also the place for a sensible wo
man, whether she llvs In th city or
the country to find a model husband
"But I only refer to the finished and
matured productsk-not to :ne unfin
ished products.
"I see you have a military compa
ny. Well, that's good for the hoy and
good for the farm. Order—obed'enoe,
personal cleanness and self-respect are
heav-n’s first laws. It strengthens
the body, mind and heart; It makes
the boy more manly.
It gives strength and symmetry to
Intellect and moral forces.
"The sword commands the plow,
hammer and spade. The soil must he
captured before It can be cultivated.
TMs was obvious In primitive times.
We need have no fears of overcrowd
ing the farmer or the mechan'c In
Georgia’s undeveloped fields and her
waste places. We are still in the
woods, and Georgia has only devel
oped in spotsi Especially Is this true
from a rural, agricultural and educa.
tional standpoint.
"Georgia has 37,747.200 acres of
arable land, of which only about one-
fourth, or ten and a half million, are
In cultivation—much of which Is poor
ly and unskillfully cultivated.
"We have ei.ough arable land to
support the population - of France and I
the German Empire. We have enough
idle land in Georgia, untouched—if
Commerce, which ere long will have
quarters there.
Tim sale 'of the postofflee building
was a topic of interesting discussion
among the few to whom the deal was
made known.
For several days past the transfer
has been under consideration, and its
final eonsuinmat on yesterday settles
the interesting question as to what|
disposition would eventually he made I
of the old postoflice. j
The Bank of Commerce now owns i
and in time will establish headquar
ters therein.
The price paid for this valuable
property was not announced for puD
licat on, but goes up high in the thous
ands, as might be supposed.
The Bank of Commerce will make
important changes upon the spacious
Interior ere Us business is transferred
there. The buildings or part of It at
least was originally designed for bank
>ng purposes, and with a large vault
there already, the transfer can soon
be made.
The building cost originally about
$25,000 and wa3 owned by the estate
of the late Col. U. B. Harrold.
