RHEUMATISM.

CONFINED TO HER BED AND UNABLE TO LIFT HAND OR FOOT v WITHOUT EXCRUCIATING PAIN. DR MORSE'S INDIAN ROOT PILLS GIVE ALMOST IMMEDIATE RELIEF. " Six years ago, while residing at Wyong," writes Mrs Elizabeth Levett, of Liv^poolj N.S.W., " I contracted Rheumatism through getting a severe chill from exposure to heavy rain, and was confined to my bed for some considerable time. I could not lift a hand to my head or move jl joint. The slightest movement woukreause agonising pain. In the legs and feet especially the pain was excruciating^ and ">• Iwould scream if I moved an inch. A friend of mine, a Mrs Chapman, one day recommended Dr Morse's Indian Roos Pills, as she knew a man who had suffered for nine years, and was cured i by them. As I had wasted pounds in trying to obtain relief, but without avail, I determined to follow her ad- | vice, and procured a bottle as a trial. I had not finished it when I felt easier, and the inflammation seemed to subside. At the same time, my appetite increased, and with continued treatment, at the end of a few months I was able to get about again, and I began to pick up in condition, recovering rapidly the suppleness of limb. When the -weather threatens a renewal of the old symptoms, I have recourse to tEe old remedy; in fact, I would no% be without them in the house. I recommend them to all my friends, and I firmly believe them to be a first-clase remedy for all ailments arising from derangement of the system. I have much pleasure in making this/statement, hoping my experience may benefit others." Those who suffer from any form of Rheumatism, Lumbago, Sciatica, or Neuralgia, should use Oomefcpek's Nerve and Bone Liniment, in conjunction with Dr Morse's Indian' Root Pills. These two remedies have been highly successful in all kinds of Rheumatism, because one cleanses the blood of all poisonous substances that cause the disease, increasing the activity of blood-making gladds, while the powerful, penetrating influences of the Liniment acting through the gpres of the skin on th© nerves, bones and muscles overcome tlje pain by relieving the effect jon the deiioate nerves, causing the. circulation of the blood to be maintained through the affected partis. Rheumatism, Lumbago and Sciatica all yields to fhe powerful, penetrating and conquering properties of Comstook's Nerve and Bone Liniment if used in ' | conjunction with Dr Morse's Indian Root Pills. Obtainable at all. chemists and stores, of post free on receipt of brice (Pills Is 1 lsd 6 bottles 6s 6d ; Liniment 2s 6d, 6 bottles 136 6d), from W.

Then the Melbourne Cricket Club saw the wraith of electoral cricket rise in its path, and once that materialised the Melbourne Cricket Club would fall to the level of a mere district affair. The only way to prevent that was to get representation on the new Board, and, dropping its tomahawk, M.C.C. got down on its marrowbones and prayed. Its prayer was heard, and the Board's constitution altered to allow of one Victorian delegate being nominated by the M.C.C. . When the Marylebone Club got a straight letter or two from the Board's secretary which told :t plainly enough that if it wanted its team to play with first-class representative players in the three eastern mainland /States, that team mu6t come out under the auspices of the Board of Control, it probably cursed the Eleven for having landed it in the dirt. It then affected to be standing in a position of strict impartiality, and announced that it was " perfectly willing to negotiate with any body authorised to speak for all the important cricket interests of Australia "—whatever that may mean. Probably it was a, mere jumble of words to conceal the fact that the Marylebone Club felt bad. Meanwhile, Darling, on behalf of the South Australian Association, wante the financing of Australian team 6in England . left op-: tional. The Board will not. hear of it, and Darling says he holds in his pocket a written invitation from the Marylebone Club to take an Australian team to England in 1908. He may have the invitation, but the Marylebone Club won't recognise the team Tie could raise in opposition to the Board of Control. The time has come for the Board to hit Darling and * his precious Association hard by fixing a date up till which they etill may come in out of the wet, otherwise — stay out and be swamped. If South Australia finds itself being dropped in the inter-State and English matches, it will soon place the Association where the man. put the puppies, overboard in a bag.' When the mail left, the famous oldtime Notts cricketer, Alfred Shaw, was dangerously ill. having been • seized with paralysis. The stroke deprived him of speech. .
