RHEUMATISM-KIDNEY TROUBLE. Rheumatism is due to uric acid crystals in the joints and muscles, the result of excessive uric acid in the system that the kidneys failed to remove as nature intended, which is also the cause of backache, lumbago, sciatica, gout, urinary trouble, stone, gravel, dropsy. The success of Estora Tablets, a thoroughly harmless specific based on modern medical science, for the treatment of rheumatism and other forms of kidney trouble, is due to the fact that they restore the kidneys to healthy action and thereby re- move the cause of the trouble, and have cured numberless cases after the failure of other remedies, which accounts for their superseding out-of- date medicines that are sold at a price beyond all but the wealthy. Women frequently suffer from ills, aches and pains, under the im- pression that they are victims of ail- ments common to their sex, but more often than not it is due to the kid- nevs, and in such cases Estora Tablets will set them right! The test is at least worth making, as woman's happiness and success in life depends entirely on her health. Estora Tablets, an honest remedy at an honest price, Is. 3d. per box of 40 tablets, or 6 for 6s. 9d. All chemists or postage free from Estora Co., 132 Charing Cross Road, London, W.C.

T J,A- MEMS FROM THE MOUNT. The threatened strike of musicians at the Workmen's Theatre fell flat. The discord vanished by the magic wand of Signor Eos Pennar, and harmony was once more restored. "On with the play." The Mount clock is itself again, and its tintinnabulations resusci- ta ted. If anyone feels inclined to doubt this, proof positive is to be obtained from Curator Richards. A budding Rechabite at a recent Band of Hope exam, wrote in his essay on Temperance that "Some men are called rabbit teetotallers be- cause rabbits doesn't drink at all." That hopeful should be banned as an essayist. A Cardiff newspaper announces in its diminished columns (why I don't know) that the town of Heidelourg will be the first in Germany to have a lady preacher. The city of Mis- kin had one long enough ago, and as for lady linguists-well, Victoria Street is-well, Victoria Street. A picture that Mr. Haggar is showing in Aberdare to-day was the cause of a hot argument. A horse in the picture deliberately turns. round and winks. The question arose can a horse show humour? My answer is neigh, unless he has broken knees. For further particu- lars apply to Dr. Oxenham. Bournemouth is very full-yes, there's a high tide of popularity just now. Among the visitors de dis- tingue I notice the Duke of Aorta Lord Drama, the Hon. John Cur- now (sometimes lovingly called 9. Little Johnny) and Sir Ben Tiley. The latter is seriously indisposed, his chest having fallen below the Plimsoll line.
