root in the circulation, its presence is quickly manifested by some form of
skin disease. The skin receives its necessary nourishment and strength
from the blood. When, however, this vital fluid becomes a bamor-laden
stream, it can no longer preserve the healthy, natural appearance pf the skin,
but by its acrid, impnre nature continually irritates and inflames the delicate
tissues and fibres and keeps the cuticle in a diseased and disfigured condition.
External applications cannot reach the blood, and therefore are beneficial
only for their ability to reduce inflammation, and assist in keeping the parts
clean. To cure any skin trouble the blood must be purified of the humors
that are causing the trouble. S. S. S. drives out the humors from the blood
so that the skin, Instead of being irritated and diseased, is nourished by a

to open the democratic campaign in

Parker said: .:' X " '' 'j; '.
"There will be many strange de
velopments in the campaign before
the fall. I do not wish to commentn
on them or say what they will be.
I will only say that there will be
such developments that the men who
speculate in stocks, basing their buy
ing and selling on the outcome of
the presidential: election, will have
to hedge more than once.:
"It will be an interesting cam
paign and filled with surprises. Any
man who sits down and makes out
a table of how the various states
will go 1 will find when the returns
are in that he has made many niis
taeks in his calculations."
