Testimony as 10 Cancer Cure

Testimony as 10 Cancer Cure
For many years I was sufferer
with cancer OF the nose, and having
been cured By she use OF S. S. s., l
feel constrained by sense of duty to
suffering humanity to make this state
ment of raY case.
I first discovered the sore on my
nose, which afterwards proved q can
Ger, during the year 1853, while IN
the army Of Tennessee, stationed at
Bull Gap. At first it gave nae but
little trouble, still I could lot get rid
Of it, and though I tried hundreds OF
remedies it gradually grew worse, and
during the last two years troubled me
greatly. Something over q year ago
I was advised to take S. S. S., and was
finally induced to try dozen bottles.
When the dozen bottles were taken
up, though my general health was
much benefited, the cancer remained
on nv nose. I concluded to take no
more of the S. S. S. but my friends
made critical examination of the
afflicted member and decided that it
looked better, and prevailed on me to
continue the medicine. With the
fourteenth bottle the cancer began to
heal rapidly and soon disappeared, and
for several months there has been no
appearance of a sore of any kind on
nv nose or face, neither is my nose
at all tender to the touch. I have
taken about two dozen bottles Of S. S.
S. and am soundly cured, and l know
that S. S. S. effected the cure after
every known remedy was tried and
had failed I will further state that
nv mother had a cancer on her nose
on the same side and the exact spot
relatively that mine was, and had
ALWAYS thought mine was hereditary
and incurable.

 of themselves by passion. It may be part of the design to draw them with de- tail, to depict full.length character, and then behold 1t melt and change in the furnace of emotion. But there is no ob- ligation of the sort nice portraiture is not required: and we are content to ac cep: mere abstract types, so they be strongly and sincerely moved. A novel of this class may be even great, and yet contain no individual figure; ii may be great, because it displays the workings of the perturbed heart and the imper. sonal ntterance of passion and with an artist of the second class it is, indeed, even more likely to be great, when the issue has thus been narrowed ana the whole force of the writer's mind directed to passion alone. Cleverness again, which has its fair field in the novel of character, is de5arYed all entry upon this more solemn theatre A far fetched motive, an ingenious evasion of the issue, a witty instead Of passionate turn, of- fend ns like an insincerity. All should be plain, all straightforward to the end. Hence it is that, m Rhoda Fleming" Mrs. Lovel raises such resentment in the reader; her motives are too fimsy, her ways are to equivocal for the weight of her surroundings. Hence the hot indig- nation of the reader when Baixic, after having begun the "Duchesse de Laugeais' in terms of strong if somewhat swollen passion, cuts the knot by the derange- ment of the hero's clsck.

Shun the bowl, it will only bring de- struction and death. Why do you dT;Sk The answer is always the same: "l don't know, ] just brink" Think oi some loved one far away to whom you write and always tell her that you arc DO, drinking drop. Think of the old, gray haired mother, to whom you gave the solemn pledge, "l will no, drink anothe CT drop" Think of the many promises you have made to friends, relatives and to your God. Yet you broke them and fell by the wayside. The man that insists on you drinking when you do not want it is not your friend but your enemy. Did you ever look into the future2 You did not. Well, then, picture to yourself a young man who has all the facilities of making a fortune and good name for himself. He becomes addicted to the habit of taking a toddy now and then with his friends. He meets them more frequently and it becomes a habit. He is not satisfied with the sweet comforts of home life. He exchanges them for the more agreeable companionship of his friends (as he thinks) in the bar room. Witness the result. He soon becomes known among his companions as a hail fellow we'll met. He spends his money more recklcssly. He thinks that friend. ship never dies. He finds ont his mis. take when too late. His money vanishes like ohsf before the winds. He reaches the end of the rope. The friends in whom he placed so much confidence, leave him one by sne. He soon finds himself alone, and without money, and, as consequence, without friends. Where are theyf They are saying to one another: "Charley is a good Fellow, but he should not driak the way he does." Who brough, him to it3 His so-calied friends.

passions are introduced h art as tAsir fuil height wN look to ssa them, noe eaiiied and impotently ssriving, a In life. but towering above circumstance and acting substitutes for fate.
 And here 1 can imagine ME JAmcs, with his lucid sense eo intervene. To much have said he would apparently demur; in much Ae would, somewhat impatiently, AcqU,esca. h may be true : but it is not what he desired to say, or 10 hear said. He spoke of the finished pie ture and its worth when done l, of the brushes, the palette, and the north light. He uttered his views in the tone and for the ear of good society; l. with the en- phasis and technicalities of the obstAsive student. But the point, may reply, Is not merely to amuse the public, but to ofer helpful advice to the young writer. And the young writer will not so much be helped by genial pictures of what art may aspire to at is highest as by true idea of what it must be on the lowest terms. The best that we can say to him Is this !: Let him choose a motive, wheth- CT of character or passion carefully con- struct his plot so that every incident is an illustration of the motive and every pro. peTsv employed shall bear to 1t 8 near relation of congruity or contrast; avoid sub-piot, unless, as sometimes in Shak- speare, the sub-plot be a reversion or complement Of the main intrigue 1; suffer not his style to flag below the level of the argument pitch the key of conversation, not with any thought of how men talk in parlors, but with a single eye to the de- gree Of passion he may be called on to express and allow neither himself in the narrative nor any character in the course of the dialogue to utter one sentence that is not part and parcel of the business oi the story or the discussion of the problem involved. Let him not regret if this shortens his book; it will be better SO for to add irrelevant matter Is not to len gthen, but to bury. Lei him not mind it he miss thousand qualities, go that he keeps unh aggingly in pursuit of the one he has chosen. Let him not care particularly if he miss the tone of con. versation, the pungent material detail ol the days manners, the reproduction of the atmosphere and the environment These elements are not esseAtial novel may be excellent, and yet have none ot them passion or character is so much the better depicted as 1t rises clearer from material circumstance. In this age of the particular let him remember the ages of the abstract the great books of the past, the brave men that lived before Shakespeare and before Balxac. And as the root of the whole matter, let him bear in mind that his novel Is not transcript of life, to be judged by its exactitude but simplifcation of some side or point of life, to stand or fall by its signi6can, simplicity. For although, In great men. working upon great motives, what we ob- serve and admire is cften their com plexity, yet underneath appearances the truth remains unchanged that simpli6 cation was their method, and tha, sim pIicity is their excellence.-Ro6<rI L0His .Sttv.Hs0s. i1 .L0ngmas'

 And first for the novel of adventure Mir. James refers, with singular generosity of praise, to a little book about a quest of hidden treasure but he lets fall, by the way, some rather startling words. In this book ne misses what he calls the "immense luxury" of being able to quar- rel with his author. The luxury, to most of us, is to lay by our judgment, to be submerged by the tale as by a pillow, and only to awake, and begin to dis tinguish and find fault, when the piece is over and the volume laid aside. Still more remarkable is MT. James reason. He cannot criticise the author, as he goes. "because," says he, comparing it with another work, have been a child, but l have never been on a quest for buried treasure" Here is, indeed, a wilful paradox; for if he has never been on a quest for burisd treasure, it can be demonstrated that he has never been a child There never was . child (uniess Master James, but has hunted gold. and been a pirate, and . military commander, and bandit of the mountains; but has fought, and suffered shipwreck and prison, and imbrued its liffie hands in gore, and gallantiy retrieved the lost batties and triumphantly protected inno- ceuce and beanty. Elsewhere in his essay Mir. James has protested with ex- ceileut reason against too narrow . con- ception of experience for the born artist, he contends, the " faintess hints of life are converted into revelations; asd 1t will be found true, believe, in . majority of cases, that the artist writes with more gusto and effect of those things which he
