o Cancer,

As the blocxl contains all the elements necessary to sustain life, it is itnpor- l9hfMMr9Br4!rTW99
tant that it be kept free of all impurities, or it becomes a source of disease, nffC7lfffHWlfIIff
poisoning instead of nourishing the body, and loss of health is sure to follow. m
Some poisons enter the blood from without, through the skin by absorption, or rfF33tJBf&Mj
inoculation ; others from within, as when waste products accumulate in the
system and ferment, allowing disease germs to develop and be taken into the B9M0tM OaM
circulation. While all blood troubles have one common origin, each has some BSmBWmM m mjMJUMMj
peculiarity to distinguish it from the other. Contagious Blood Poison, Scrofula, m mmm
Cancer, Rhevmalisin, Eczema and other blood diseases can be distinguished by pgS0ff9MG MmGGKGm
a certain sore, nicer, eruption or inflammation appearing on the skin. Every blood .
disease shows sooner or later on the outside and on the weakest part of the body, or where it finds the least rrtfctance.
Iilanv mistake the sore or outward sign for the real disease, and attempt a cure by the use of salves, liniments and other
esterrul applications. Valuable time is lost and no permanent benefit derived from such treatment.
ELGG3 FfiQ&DLES RZQISSRE BLOOD REMEDIES; the poison must be completely and perma
nently eradicated the blood reinforced, purified and cleansed, or the disease goes deeper and saps the very life. Mercury,
potash and arsenic, the treatment usually prescribed in this class of diseases, are violent poisons, even when taken in small
doses never cure, but do much harm by adding another poison to the already overburdened, diseased blood.
S. S. S., Nature's own remedy, made oi roots ana nerDS, attacks ine aisease in
the blood, antidotes and forces out all impurities, makes weak, thin blood rich, strong
and healthy, and at the same time builds up the general health. S. S. S. is the only
purely vegetable blood purifier known, and the only one that can reach deep-seated
blood troubles. A record of 50 years of successful cures proves it to be a reliable,
unfailing specific for all blood and skin troubles.

Essentials in Public Schools.
Washington Post.
Mr. Thomas Brenan, one of the trus
tees of the Chicago public schools, who
has for more than thirty years been a
careful observer of educational meth
ods and their results, brings a serious
charge against the schools of that city.
He declares that the avarage country boy
coming in from the backwoode,is more
valuable to the business man than the
boy graduate from the Chicago schools.
The reason asigned for the alleged sup
erior value of the boy from the coun
try will be interesing to the parents of
children at school and to those who
are charged with the reeponsibllty of
arranging and carrying out the course
of study. The reason Is that the
"amount ot time spent in the public
schools upon studies that are not es
sential is fully as great as that given to
reading, writing and arithmetic. They
have tried to make everything of the
school boy, and they have prevented
him from becoming anything."
That Is, perhaps, too strong a state
ment of the case, but there is undoubt
edly a good deal of truth in it. Al
though the tendency to overload' the
pupils and to reduce the time devoted
to the rudimentary and Indispensable
branches have been apparent In both
urban and rural sections, it has been
far more pronounced in the former
than In the latter. Other things be
ing equal, the city boy ought to be
more useful and succesful in business
in a city than his cousin from the
country. The city schools are kept in
operation for a longer period each year
than those in the country. Cities af-
brd many facilities for intelectual and
moral improvement that are impossi
ble in the agricultural regions. And
if it is suggested that the city boy is
more exposed to temptation than the
boy on the farm, the suggestion is but
another reason why the former ought
to be worth more than the latter In al
most any department ot business. The
school graduate fresh from the country
has before him temptations to evil
which have faced the city boy ever
since he emerged form cradlehood. Of
the two the city graduate and the
graduate from the backwoods the lat
ter is far more likely to fail a vlotim to
the lures of vice In town.
The overcrowding oraze, the attempt
to cram the minds of school children
with an infinite variety of knowledge
and the consequent neglect to teach
them to read well, to write good En-
llah in a good hand and to give them
a thorough arithmetical training, ap
pears to have subsided. That is cer
tainly the case in this city.

IT HAPPENED IN A DRUG STORE.
"One day last winter a lady came to
my drug store and asked for a brand of
cough medicine that I did not have in
8tock,"8ays Mr. C. R. Grandin, the
popular druggst of Ontario, N. Y."She
was disappointed and wanted to know
what cough preparation I could rec
ommend. I said to her that 1 could
freely recommend Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy and that she could
take a bottle of the remedy and after
giving it a fair trial if she did not find
it worth the money to bring back the
bottle and I would refund the price
paid. In the course ot a day or two
the lady came back in company with
a friend in need of a cough medicine
and advised her to buy a bottle of
Chamberlain's Cough Remedy. I con
sider that a very good recommendation
for the remedy." The remedy owes
its great popularity and extensive sale
in a large measure to the personal rec
ommendations of people who have
been cured by its use. It is for sale
by E. T. Whitehead & Co. Druggists.
The Boy That Laughs.
I know a funny little boy
Tbe funniest ever born :
His face is like a beam of joy
Although his clothes are torn.
1 saw him tumble on his nose,
And waited for a groan
But how he laughed I Do you suppose
xe struck His funny bone?
There's sunshine In each word be
speaks.
His laugh is something grand ;
Its ripples over "ran his cheeks
Like waves on snowy sand.
He laughs tbe moment he awakes.
And till the dnv ia done :
Th schoolroom for a joke he takes
xdb lessons are out lun.
No matter how the day may go,
You" cannot make him cry ;
He's worth a dozen boys, I know,
Who pout and mope and sigh.

A lady gave us a rule, not Ions since,
by which she bad succeeded in inter
esting her lively, fun loving boys, so
they pieferred to remain at home even
ings instead of seeking amusement else
where.
She paid, "I remember that childreu
are children, aiul must tiavo amuse
ments: I fear taut the abhorrence witn
which some good parents regard any
play for children is tbe reason why
children go feway for pleasure. Hus
band and 1 used to read history, and
at the end ol each chapter ask soice
questions, requiring the answer to be
looked up if not given correctly. We
follow a similar plan with the child
ren jsometimes we pla; one game, and
sometimes another, always planniog
with books, stories, plays, or treats of
some kind, to make the eyenings at
home moie attractive than they can be
made abroad. I should dislike to
think that any oue could make my
children happier than I can, so I always
try to be at leisure in the evening, and
to arrange something entertaining.
"When there 19 a good concert, lec
ture, or entertainment, we all go to
gether and enjoy it ; and whatever is
worth the price of admission to us old
er people, is equally valuable to tbe
children, and we let them see that we
spare no expense where It is to their
advantage to be out of an evening.
"But the greater number of our
evenings are epeut quietly at home.
Sometimes it requires quue an effort
to sit quietly talking and playing with
them when my work-basket Is filled
with unfinished work, and books and
papers lie unread on tbe table ; but as
the years go by, and 1 see my boys and
girls growing into home-loving, mod
est young men and maidens, I am glad
that I made It my Tule to glye the
best of myself to my family."
There Art No More Self-Made lien.
"From the highest home to the low
est In America this Idea of castle has
entered, destroying our old high, ideals
and making us pretentious and vul
gar," writes "An American Mother,"of
"How we Lead a Simple Life," In the
October Ladies' Home Journal. "Tbe
idle rich man covets high soslal place
with a hunger that is both ridiculous
and tragic. If he has money enough
he buys a titled busband for his daugh
ter. He tries to establish a precedence
for himself over his neighbors by claims
of high descent. Nor is this apprecia
tion of rank confined to the leisured
class In this country. It is universal.
No candidate for office finds it neces
sary now to pose as a self-made man or
to put his respectable ancestors out of
sight. The self-made man is no longer
the popular hero. On the contrary,
noble ancestors are in such demand
that tf we do not haye them we invent
them as we do air-brakes or motors, or
anything else necceesary to our well-being
and comfort. The rich American
finds it easy to have a coat-of-arms and
a pedigree as to have a dress-coat. He
seldom goes to Burke or the Heralds'
College for these things. He plants
and grows his own family tree as he
does his maple at tbe front door."
