Mr. Asa Smith, Greencastle, Indiana, says: “For years I have suffered with Sciatic Rheuma tism, which the best physicians were un able to relieve. I took many patent medicines but they did not seem to reach my trouble. 1 gradually grew werse until I was un able to take my food I or handle myself in *ny way; I was abso l/SjEifrYJ lutelyhelpless.

There is an absolute lack of drugs in Santiago, and finally the crews of the Spanish warships are one half rations.
