"I don't believe we should make Walt wait any longer than he has had to watt for his certificate, just because Dahlman 'has to wait. Walt waited years longer i than Dahlman has waited.

Y., he wlU send yoo fall Information free regarding this remarkable remedy, er If you will send earnings of the Rock Island proper were greater on an average than those of tho whole system, he stated. The subsidiary lines reduced the average, he said. Attorney Thorne thn read from a report of the rod to the Interstate Commerce commission. He said that the report controverted the witness; that the earnings of the system averaged more than those of the railroad proper. "The difference may be accounted for," explained the witness, "by the fact that my tables and those which you have are pre pared by different methods." Mr. Thorne demanded the formula by which eurnlngs are arrived at, and was In terrupted by Attorney Brown, who snid: "The wltnesn has explained that his sta tistics were based on a different method of bookkeeping. Io you think there Is a nigger In the woodpile, 7" "I do," was the prompt reply. "Then go after It," replied the examiner. 'Questions by Live Stock Man. Attorney Clifford Thome, representing the American National Live Stock associ ation at the Interstate Commerce commis sion rate hearing, Insisted today that offi cers of the Chicago, Rock Island & Paclfio Railroad company be subpoenaed to testify concerning the capitalisation of the company. The demand came after Comptroller May, under cross-examination, had said that the stock of the Chicago, Rock Island & Paclfio Railway company was largely. If not en tirely, held by the Chicago, Rock Island & Pacific Railroad company. A heated discussion followed as to the relevancy of the desired testimony. Attor ney E. D. Pierce of the railway company insisted that the capitalisation of the rail road company was not germane to the hearing. Mr. Pierce said that tbe capital stock of the railroad company was II4o,0W,- 000, and that it was a matter ot common knowledge that It owned the greater part of the stock of the railroad company. "It does not matter," he said, "what the railroad company is capitalised at. We, the Chicago, Rock Island & Paclfio Rail way company are not asking for Increased rates in connection with any company ex cept the Chicago, Rock Island & Paclfio Railway company, and we do not know, nor are we concerned with the capitalisa tion of the Chicago, Bock Island & Paclfio Railroad company." Destiny of Tariff. The controversy concluded with the state ment that the shippers could subpoena of ficers of the railroad company and ques tion them concerning the density of traffic on different sections of the Rock Island line. Taking up the cross-examination ot Comptroller Nay, Attorney Thome asked the witness It the latter1 s estimate of the compensation per ton mile shown In statis tics introduced yesterday. Included mall, passenger and express labor charges as well as freight and labor compensation. Mr. Nay replied that all labor was Included In the estimate. He said that In estimating the probable operating expenses for the road for 1911 he had not taken Into account any probable In crease In freight revenue for ths reason that the figures showed that there has been a decrease of 1356,000 in gross freight reven ues during the first seven weeks of the present fiscal year as compared with the corresponding period a year ago. - Attorney Thorne sought to show that a decrease for seven weeks was not a good Indication of a yearly decrease, but Mr. Nay refused to coincide with this. Witness stated that the Interstate trafflo .on the Rock Island system amounts to from 80 to 86 per cent ot the total.

RHEUMATISM PAINFUL & DANGEROUS Rheumatism is due to a diseased condition of the blood cells and cor puscles, brought about by an excess of uric acid in the circulation. It is not only a very painful disease but an extremely dangerous trouble. Tho briny, acrid state of the blood gradu ally forms a coating over the muscles, and by depositing a cement-like sub stance id the joints frequently termi nates fatally, or leaves its victim a hopeless cripple. It Is natural to ' doctor " the spot that hurts, and it is quite right to use liniments, hot appli cations, etc., to get temporary relief from a painful joint or swollen tendon; but Rheumatism is not a skin disease, and such things, when depended oil 'alone make one careless, and the dis ease gets a firmer hold on the blood. S. S. S. cures the disease because it is the greatest of all blood purifiers. It goes into the cir culation, and re moves - every particle of the irritating uric acid, builds up the blood, makes it rich and oily, and in this way pre pares it for the proper nourishment of all joints, muscles, nerves and bones. If you have Rheumatism, get the uric acid out of the blood by taking S. S. S., a purely vegetable medicine, and enjoy freedom from its misery.
