GERM THEORY OF DISEASE.
The Position it Occupies and Attention it
is Receiving From Scientific Men

The Position it Occupies and Attention it
is Receiving From Scientific Men.
The germ theory of the origin of disease is a
subject which is at present attracting the at
tentOn of scientific men in all parts of the world.
The chief importance of the germ theory, how
ever, is not that it shows The origin of disease
but that it points out the best means to be en-
ployed to effect cure. The germs of disease,
from whatever source they come, are lodged
and developed in the blood. The blood, of
course by circulating to every part of the body.
is sure to scatter disease throughout the system
whenever it is impure, the weakest and most
susceptible parts being the first to suffer tits
because of scrOfulOus taints in the blood, for in
stance that the skin becomes covered with
eruptions. 1t is Tactic acid in the blood which
causes rheumatism. and it is because the blood
does not supply proper nourishment to the
nerves that people suffer with nervousness.
The cure for all these diseases, and of many
others, can only be effected by purifying the
blood, and absolutely destroying all germs of
disease. No intelligent person can doubt
that Hoods Sarsaparilla has actually and
permanently cured many thousands of cases
of scrofula, rheumatism, nervousness, dys-
pepsia and other troubles, and, as its prOprie-
tors claim. it is all because this medicine puries
the blood. AS a matter of fact. Hoods Sarsapa-
rla is the only reliable blood purifier that is be-
fore the public today and persons afflicted with
impure blood or any of the great variety of all
ments which it causes, will be most certain to
find relief and cure in Hoods Sarsaparilla be-
cause it possesses this peculiar power to purify,
enrich and vitalize the blood, and destroy the
germs of disease.

doubt. He is scholar, giving evidence
in every thing he undertakes of careful
and even elegant training. He is an
American, and to very large extent a
New England American. He is cos
mopolitan-an Englishman perhaps more
than a Frenchman. and Frenchman
much more than an Italian. His father
was theologian and man of means. an
excellent scholar and an able writer.
He was thus able to superintend his
sons education, and to give him oppor-
tunities. Young James was born in
New York city; but he studied for a
time at Harvard. Prior to his entering
Harvard he had resided with his family
for some years in Europe, part of the
time having been spent in England. part
in France, and part in Switzerland,
Such origin and such training, united
with an experience almost unique, could
not fail to look intelligently at things
from cosmopolitan standpoint. 1t was
from this point of view, as all his read
ers know, that he did begin to view
things as novelist; and the steady per-
sistency with which he has prosecuted
his work on this line amply justifies the
title which has been given him, 1.-The
Father of the international Novel," By
way of illustrating his cosmopolitan
character, it ought to be mentioned that
he speaks and writes French with al
most as much ease as he does English,
and that his serial novels appear for the
most part simultaneously in French and
English magazines.
Latterly Mr.. James resides chiefly in
London making frequent visits to France,
and as a rule spending some months in
Italy. Occasionally he takes a trip
across the Atlantic, and helps to keep
alive his American friendships.

week made the following statement to
the United Press:
"In view of certain statements in the
newspapers that Treasury officials are
embarrassed by an alleged failure IN
gold deliveries under the recent con-
tract, and other assertions OF similar
nature calculated to mislead and dis
turb the public mind, | wish to say that
the actual withdrawals of gold from the
Treasury since the first of March, 1880,
have been 1856, BAT, of which 1921, OS7
have been for the redemption OF United
States Treasury notes and S74,26O for

and divided among the cities of New

San Francisco, st. Louis and Chicago.
These are no more than the ordinary
Withdrawals which in the past have
usually taken place at this season of the
year. Moreover. during the same period
the Treasury has received considerable
gold coin in exchange for various kinds
of paper currency"
