In domestic life his attentions were as affectionate and tendet as they were beautiful and paternal. Ho was a deeply Interested member of the Masonic order and a prominent Knight Templar.

The andentB believed that rheuma tism was the work ot a demon within a man. Any one who has had an at tack of bdatlc or Inllammatory rheu matism will ogrea that the Infliction Is demoniac enough to warrant tho be lief. It has never been claimed that Chamberlain's Pain Balm would cast out demons, but It will cure rheuma tism, and hundreds bear testimony to the truth of this statement. Ono ap plication relieves the pain, and this quick relief which it affords is alone worth many times its cost. For sale by all druggists, Matthews Brothers. J vvholesalo and retail agents.
