What Is Rheumatism?
Sufferer Should Realize That
It I a Blood Infection and
Can Be Permanently
" Relieved. '
Rheumatism means that' the bipod
has become saturated with uric acid
poison. - ' .
It does not require medical advice
to know that good health is abso
lutely dependent upon pure blood.
When the muscles and joints become
sore and drawn with rheumatism, it
is not a wise thing to take a little
salve and by rubbing it on the sore
spot, expect to get rid of your rheu
matics. You, must: go deeper than
that,aj3own deep into the blood where
the poison lurks and which in not ef
fected by salves and ointments. It
is important that you rid yourself of
this terrible ' disease before it goes
too far. S.' S. & is the blood puri
fier that has stood the test of time,
having been in constant use for more
than fifty years. It will-do for you
what it haa done for thousands of
others, drive the rheumatic poisons
out of your blood, making it pure
and strong and enabling it to make
you well. S. S. S. is guaranteed pure
ly vegetable, it will do the work and
not harm the most delicate stomach.

pany and let him advise with you.

"I just want to say right now that
I wouldn't take five hundred dollars
for the good that first bottle of Tan
lac did me, for I feel like it has given
me a new lease on life," said C. E.
Nelson, a contracting carpenter, living-
at 7728 63rd ave., Southeast,
Portland, Ore., recently.
"Following a serious accident four
months ago, he continued, "which
laid me up for eight or nine weeks,
I lost my appetite, and my stomach
got all out of order. What little
I did manage to eat would sour and
form gas, which would cramp and
pain me until I could hardly stand
it. Then jny kidneys went back on
me, and my back hurt so bad I
couldn't find a comfortable position.
They said I had rheumatism or 'lum
bago,' then my right leg, belowthe
knee, got to hurting me, and at times
I couldn't stand on my feet or get
up when down. I was constipated
all the time and suffered a great deal
with headache. Nobody knows how
I really did suffer, because I just
cant describe it, and as nothing
seemed to do me any good I had be
come discouraged about my condi
tion. 1
"I finally sent down and got a bot
tle of Tanlac, as I had read so much
about it, and it was about the best
investment I ever made. My appe-
tite came bounding back after my
first few doses, and by the time my
second bottle was gone, my stomach
trouble was almost gone, too. I am
now eating any and everything I
want and it don't hurt me the least
bit, and my kidneys and hack are
greatly improved. At the time: I
started on Tanlac I had to use
crutches in order to get about, but I
don't need them now at all, and have
thrown them' aside. I have gaine4
several wounds in weight, and' can'
just feel mvself getting stronger
every day. ' I have gone back to work
already, and I never lose' an oppor

Come
Forward,
Men of
Nebraska
This is trie time to sfiow your patriotism, -public
spirit and appreciation of service rendered you in the
past.
K P. DODGE went "over the top" in the legislative
trenches time" after time for the people to free Omaha
and the State from the "gang" and the sordid selfishness
of the public service corporations, thus making our
State free from their.influence.
N. P. Dodge fought four terms for the Omaha
.Water Plant, two terms for the Direct Primary and he
was one of the leaders in the famous legislature of 1907;
that, took our State government out of the hands of the
railroads and restored it to the people by enacting the
' Primary , Election Iaw, abolishing the free railroad pass
and thus destroying the railroad political rnachine.
N. P. Dodge knew that Omaha needed honest elec
tions, and that the Third ward gang and the corpora
tions that supported it were stealing elections by re
peaters, false registrations, and ballot box stuffing and
fake returns by election off icials. He drew andassed
the Election Commissioner Law (known, as the Dodge
Honest Election Law), which has been so ably adminis
tered by Harley MoorheadY We now have honest elec
tions whereby you can defeat improper franchises and
elect whom you please.
- v These acts for the public good proved his sound
judgment,'- unselfish Interest and rugged determination
to fight .for clean, efficient government He has "made
good" in full measure. .
NOW, MEN OF POXJGLAS, SAEPY 'AND WASH
INGTON COUNTIES, go to the polls and vote for N.
, P. DODGE FOR CONGRESS, to show your apprecia
tion of a man who ha? serVed the people well and is de
serving of you support Our boys are giving all of,
