Ohio, for an investigation of

Frmik Oorrell, secretary of the

Revolting1 Details.
Miss O'Reilly and Mr. IVaet
gave the committee details of the
horrible working, filthy housing
.conditions and lack of .sanitary

a. month in the camp as a wo

no record of child labor, anil the

Too Filthy for Pigs.
Mr. Praet presented the reMrt
of his investigation of nearly
fifty canning camjw in New
York State, including camps at
Webster, Lyons, Clyde, Marion,
Koine, and other towns through
out the fruit and truck garden
section of the State. His de
serijrtion of housing factory em
ployes, of filthy shacks, and of
cojkditions of water aiiul sanita

see these things yourself?"
"All of the statements made
hero are the result of my own
Liuvestigatinn," returned Mr.
Praet. "I could not find words
to descrilw hte conditions truly.
Sonne of the places are so filthy
that no pig would have been at

When we say S. S. S. curt chronic CaUrrh we do not mean that it mere
!y checks the symptoms tor a time. Some lot al -applications will do that
by simply cleansing and soothing the irritated mucous membranes. But
all the while the cause which produces Catarrh is left in the system, and
as soon as the local treatment is left off, the trouble returns with all its an
noying symptoms. S. S. S. cures Catarrh by cleansing the blood of all
impure catarrhal matter, and at the same time building up the system by
its unequaled tonic effects. It goes into the circulation and attacks the dis
ease at its root, and removes every trace of impurity that is causing the
trouble. Under the purifying ef-
