Brown. JMIUML' Not the mere temporary relief that the old "remedies" gave. not the little help that the doctor's prescriptions give; but ABSOLUTE AND COMPLETE CURE. That is what Rheumacide does. Rheumatism is caused by an excess of -uric acid in the blood.

It is an internal disease anu requires a strong and vigorous internal remedy that will cleanse the blood of all its germs and yet act through such natural methods that it builds up the entire system. SWEEPS ALL POISONS BLOOD. (Special to The Messenger.) Chadbourn, X. December 29. Christmas passed away very quietly.

His condition is not serious. Some one shot Santa Claus'while he was distributing presents from the tree at the colored Presbyterian church, the bull glanced his jaw but no serious damage.

Messrs. R. E. L. Brown and Robert Blake, two leading merchants here, have been quite sick, but are out again.

Among the most enjoyable social functions of the holidays was a whist party given by Miss Bernice Thayer who has recently returned from a visit to 'Boston. Mr. H. A. McEachern died in Jacksonville, a few days ago.

He was conveyed in a special train to Raleigh, where he was taken to a hospital and received surgical attention, and later was carried to his home in Durham, Vvhere he is resting easily tonight. Tomorrow he will be taken to New York and placed under the care of specialists, in the hope that the wounded hand may be saved. Pcttus and Beveridge.

(New York Times.) Beveridge came into the senate her-; aided as a "boy orator' Some men live down that reputation: Bryan did, for instance. Beveridge has never lived it down. He is great weaver of words, and Mr. Dooley. appreciatively and admiringly remarked, of his first speech in the senate: 'Twas a spech ye could waltz to." His word sympathies do not move men as did those of ln-gersoll and Hay.

It is partly on account of his voice, which is rather me-talic and not very flexible, and partly because of something in his personality There is nothing about him that could bo described as either charming or magnetic. Yet he is a man that men like. There is bonyant, fresh and bubbling enthusiasm about, him that makes it hard to feel antagonistic. The senate abhors boy orators, but GORES TO STAY CURED.

Long since I despaired of ever being well again. But hearing of RHEUMACIDE, I decided to give it a trial. I have taken two bottles, and, thanks to this wonderful medicine, I now feel that I have gotten a "new lease on life." Every vestige of Ihe disease has been driven from my system MRS. LAURA D.

In his way of buttoning the top of his coat, in hi movement of the chest and slight oscillation of shoulders he con-' veyed such an idea of ridiculous pomt posity that the senate lost all control of itself. Never mentioning Beveridge's name, lie punctured the Indiana's claims to' be what he called "our great orator" with a gentle and poignant ridicule.

There is no doubt about it in the world. There will surely have to be some caucus on the matter." While the old man was doing this dreadful deed, now and then stopping to mop his face with an immense, red handkerchief imported from Selma, all the rnles of the senate were forgotten. Democrats and republicans alike were lying sprawled across their desks, their faces contorted in an agony of merriment.

G. Dun Co's Weekly Review of Trade tomorrow will say: Unseasonably mild weather accentuated the customary holiday week dullness in distribution of staple merchandise, but gratifying results of Christmas trade established a strong tone, and confidence regarding the future is more pronounced. Outdoor work is facilitated by the hight temperature and lack of snow, making the year's total of building operations even greater tharn the most expectations. Trade in furs and heavy clothing is unfavorably affected by the open winter, but the net result is most satisfactory. Despite inventories and repairs, output of manufacturing plants has- continued large and preparations for spring shipments indicate that advance orders were heavy.

New business at first hands is seasonably quiet, but machinery will be fully occupied well into the new year before additional orders are required. Statements of railway earnings continue satisfactory. Figures thus far vailable for December showing an average gain of 6.9 per cent, over 1904.
