FROM RAD To WORSE.

THE ordinary treatment Of contagious blood
poisoning is to drive one poison from the sys.
TEN by introducing another. The result. in
most cases, has been that which usually fol-
lows leap from the frying-pan into the fire.
10 put 1t mildly. mercuriai and other mineral
poisonings have disadvantages which are
hardly less serious than contagious blood poison.
In either case the system Is wrecked; and yet
there is no reason why humanity should con-
tinue to suffer. II Is the Office Of s. s. s. to
cure contagious blood poisoning. For that
disease the medicine is surely a specific. And
1t is also its office to cure mercurial and other
mineral poisoning. In short, 5. 5. S. is the
great blood purifier. 1t destroys the germs of
the contagious disease, and expels from the
system all forms OF mineral poisoning II re-
stores health and strength to the sufferer.

good citizens of Bar Harbor that besides
being an expert artist with the scissors

pli>hed performer on that most artful of
all things ridden by man or woman "a
southern mule not excepted a safety y
bicycle. With the kind assistance OF the
genial Maine Central ticket agent ian &C
conplshed btcycli>t himself she mount
ed the very uncertain vehicle OF two wheels
and started for tour" down Main aud
Cottage streets. SO long as friend Drew"
helped her at the helm she managed to
keep her equilibrium beautifully. but in an
uuguarded moment of sclf-satis faction She
called on her assistant u relax his hold as
she was capable OF going it alone" but
alas the bicycle saw her" ana went two
better" and ''called"-on the sidewalk and
great that she could not resist the call"
so she executed a delightful spread eagle"
with great eeldt, gore, splinters and MID
without end. The much amused spectators
who had witnessed the performance now
concluded that they had got more than their
moneys worth and began paying their
debts OFF by gathering up the scattered
fragments of artificial dandelions wheels
and skirts The sub-editor in addition 10
the usual duties of writing up the editori-
ais. now wields the scissors and paste pot,

in flames. The fire had evidently caught under
whole populace turned out and By hundreds
rushed TO the rescue; but their effort, were
without avail. for il soon became apparent
that it was beyond the power of morials to
save the building. The family escaped in their
night-cothes, the landlady and two children
losing all thci- clothing. In half an hour
from the time the fire discoy ered the tower
fell The cause OF the fire is unknow rs there
had been no fire in the main part Of the house
since last Monday week and 1t took fire under
the parlor. We hear that the loss is
estimated all the way from $4,000 to
$50, 600. The hotel was owned by the
Winter Harbor Land Co. Some OF the fur

bedstead was to be seen which had been

The canopy was supported by four

waved fans to cool the air. The mat
tress was a gigantic musical box, which
played series of operate airs when

remember that music hath charms,
