Time was wnen Cancer was considered Physicians and friends could give little relief or encouragement to one afflicted with this terrible disease. Even now doctors know of no remedy for this fearful malady ; while admitting it to be a blood disease, they still insist that there is no hope outside of a surgical operation, and advise you to have the Cancer cut out, but at the same time cannot assure you that it will not return. You may cut or draw out the sore, but another will come in its place, for the disease is in the blood is deep-seated and destructive, and beyond the reach of the surgeon's knife or caustic, flesh-destroying plasters. The blood must be purified and strengthened, the system relieved of all poisonous, effete matter before the Cancer sore will heal. , - - . S S S is the only medicine that can overcome this powerful and contaminating poison and force it out of the blood. It builds up and invigorates the old. and supplies new, rich, life-giving blood. S. S. S. is a purely vegetable remedy : no mineral can be found in it ; the roots and herbs from which it is made contain powerful purifying properties that act directly upon the blood system and make a safe and permanent cure of Cancer. It has cured thousands, why not you ? Cancer is not alwavs inherited ; your family may be free tpm any taint, yet your blood may become so polluted that a severe and stubborn form of the disease may Impure Blood Imritea DiGoaoe. tVS&SS or jjUrt a little pimple on the eyelid, lip or nose, a small lump on the jaw or breast, a harmless looking wart or mole, and other causes so insignificant as to attract little or no attention. If you have an obstinate sore, don't rely upon salves or ointments to cure it begin with S. S. S. at once; it will cleanse your blood and prevent the formation of cancerous cells. Mrs. R. Shirer, Ia Plata. Mo., writes : " A small pimple came on ray jaw about one inch below the ear on the left side of my face. At first it gave me no trouble, and I did not think it was anything serious nntil the jaw began to swell and became much inflamed. At the same time the sore began to spread and eat into the flesh, and gave me intense pain. I tried everything I could hear of, but nothing did me any good I then began the use of S. S. S., and after taking several bottles the Cancer healed, and there is now no sign of the disease. This was two years ago, and I am still enjoying perfect health." ) Send for our special book on Cancer ; it contains much information that will interest you ; it is free.

THE FAMILY DOCTOR Typhoid Fever Discussed, and Other Useful Hints. F. W. J. St. John, M. D., in Farm Journal. Typhoid fever is a specific, infectious, variable fever, lasting from three to four weeks, and accompanied by ulcer ation of glands in the small intestines, a rose-colored eruption upon the abdo men, a dry, brown tongue, diarrhoea and often delirum. Any of these con ditions, excepting the fever and intes tinal ulceration, may be absent. The disease is caused by a germ, which usually enters the system with the drinking water. The time elaps ing between the entrance of the germ and the beginning of illness averages about fourteen days. The symptoms are as follows : A person in whom the disease is develop ing usually complains of pain in the head and back ; some uneasiness m the bowels ; and usually there is seme diar rhoea. The patient is soon obliged to take the bed. The fever, which is at first slight, Increases day by day until at the end of the first week of feyer the evening temperature has reached 103 106. At about this time rose-colored spots, resembling flea bites, appear upon the abdomen. The fever during the second week does not abate, but in a favorable case during the third week gradually falls. During the progress of the disease, the tongue becomes dry and brown, the intestines become distended wiih gas, and there is often delirium. There is a great loss of flesh and bodily strength. Relapse often occurs when the patient seems to be improving. This is probably due to the other in testinal glands taking up poison from the existing disease. Treatment : No remedy known to the medical profession will cure ty phoid fever, consequently good nurs ing is all-important. The diet should be entirely liquid, milk being the best when it agrees. Sponge baths several times a day are always indicated. No drugs are neces sary except particular symptoms call for them. Pure boiled water should be freely allowed. A physician should see the patient daily. All the sheets and clothing used by the sick person should be changed at least every forty-eight hours, and after being soaked in disinfecting solution for a few hours, boiled for an hour during the process of washing. All passages from the bowels and bladder should stand for a few hours in a strong disinfectant and then be buried where there can be no possibility of their reaching any source of water Bupply. After convalescence, the sick room should receive thorough disinfection. FOOT NOTES. The idea that bathing is contraindi cated during an attack of the eruptive fever, quiets restlessness and does not "drive In" the eruption. . The normal temperature of the hu man tody, as shown by a thermometer placed under the tongue, is 98 2-5 de grees F. The temperature of the blood Itself is slightly higher. A tempera ture in disease below 103 is considered safe, above 105 very dangerous. The pulse is caused by the pulsa tions of the heart and not by the breathing, as is often supposed. The average normal pulse rate, or number of heart beats in an adult is seventy two per minute. Many persons take poisonous drugs in larger doses than prescribed. Bet ter follow directions or sometime the result may be disastrous. If by accident carbolic acid is spilled on the hands or taken internally, the best antidote is alcohol, If immediately used. -Externally wash the parts with pure alcohol. If the acid has been wallowed take the alcohol as strong as possible, internally. Unless the bottle containing spirits of nitre is kept tightly corked the nitre will soon lose its virtue. There are some persons In whom the tongue is habitually coated, and others where the tongue will remain clean when the person is ill. The young M. D. just oat of college may know more than the physician of twenty years' experience, as the former is "up-to-date," yet the "old fogy" CURES BLOOD POISON.

Surgeons' rubber adhceiva pTasUr may be removed with ease after moist ening with alcohol or benzine. A New York quack who was arrested recently for improper use ol the mailf, admitted that his receipts had been high as $30,000 in one month. He gave what is known as "absent treat ment," one of the various mind cures. A shoo that is too loose on the foot is olten as bad as one that is too tight, producing sores by friction. In all cases of suspected death by drowning the various methods to in duce a return of the respiration (breath iug) should be employed. These are more likely to succeed than attempts to remove water from the stomach by roiling the person on a barrel or simi lar treatment. The cause of death by drowning is the sam9 as in any otter ca?e where oxytren cannot enter the lung in sufficient quantities.

A barn-yard boy at a college Is green Indeed, but a city-bred lad on a farm is his equal in ignorance. The country boy looks blank when , they speak of trolleys and bikes, and would be awk ward in ringing an electric door-bell ; possibly he would be dumb before a nhone. But the citv lad would be liable to go to the hen house for a shote, or to the hog pen for a pullet. If told to tether an ox he would be more apt to tie him by the horns and let him hang himselt than by the hoof that he might graze safely. A preparatory course for college is not complete until a boy knows the names and habits ot the wild and domestic animala and fowls of his native country, the trees with their leaves and fruits, the soils and subsoils with their adapt abilities and relative producing powers. A boy who knows these things is wise if he has never seen a book. When I start a college I am going to establish and endow a chair of common sense. The text book will be the open book of nature and the processors will wear a wide-rim hat and homespuns. A knowledge of the things that God hps made is as Important as a knowledge ot the things that man has invented. Mothers endorse it, children like it, old folks use it.
