Beware
OF the Knife.

Mr.. Lincoln Nelson, of Marshfeld, Mo-.
writes: ''For six years l have been
sufferer from a scrofulous affection OF
the glands of my neck, and all efforts
of physicians in Washington, ID. C.,
Springfield, ILL.,, and st. Louis failed to
reduce the enlargement. After six
months constant treatment here, my
physician urged me to submit to a re-
moval of the gland. At this critical mo-
ment a friend recommended S.S.S.,
and laying aside a deep-rooted preju-
dice against all patent medicines, be-
gan its use. Before had used one bot
tie the enlargement began to disappear,
and now it is entirely gone, though l am
not through with my second bottle yet.
Had l only used your SIS. long ago,
/ would have escaped years of misery
and saved over $I5o."
This experience is like that of all who
suffer with deep-seated blood troubles.
The doctors can do no good, and even
their resorts to the knife prove either
fruitless or fatal. SIS. is the only
real blood remedy; it gets at the root OF
the disease and forces it out perma-
nently.

KNOWS "BIG-FOOT DAVE"
When Identified by a Victim

OAKLAND, CAL, March 31.-Andrew

Already four habeas corpus writs have
been denied ON this arrest, but the attor-
neys will make every point they can for
the defense.
Sergeant Hodgkins, who arrested the
trio. has procured more evidence against
the men under arrest and il is probable
that they will all go to trial. The last

Mexican mine story and was ready to in
vest when Mr.. Kahn got hold of his bank
book and refused to let him useit.
Mr.. Premore took look at .'Big-foot

OF the foulest.kind of language as soon as
he was seen by the alleged crook. Pre-
more identities him fully.
Sheriff Cunningham of Stockton has
been trying to connect the gang with the
operators who cleaned up about $40 600 at
