ence likes to go little more deeply
into things and many ingenious and
conflicting theories have been put for
ward by scientists to account for the
popularity. Some would have it that
certain varieties of primitive man
spent too much Of their time exposed
to the sun-the moisture Of the air
preventing them from being baked in
stead of basted-and grew more and
more tanned by slow degrees until
they orbed at last into the perfect
negro. The latest inquirer into the
subject, A. III. Keane, adds new ele-
ment to those of solar heat and mois-
ture. His theory is that san excess
of vegetable food, yielding more car
bon can be assimilated," is largely re-
sponsible. Once betrayed into vege-
tarianism, our ''colored brethren
grew, through processes Of heredity,
ever darker and darker, and the
black work has probably, by this
time, gone so far that even a changed
diet, persisted in through countless
generations. would not now avail to

large. In planting corr he is very
precise, putting exactly the same num-
Der of stalks in each row, and for
years he has had the finest corn fields
in the Lebanon Valley. Some months
ago he came to the conclusion that if
he planted corn in flower pots and
raised the plants in that way there
would be no delay in their growth
in case any corn had to be replanted
in his fields. So he purchased 5000
flower pots, placed them in his garden
this spring and planted a seed Of corn
in each. Several weeks ago, when it
became necessary to replant the corr
fields, a hole was dug wherever there
was stalk missing, and one Of the
tender corn stalks YVES transplanted
from the pots. The potted stalks grew
well, and are just as large as those
planted in the field in the spring

Dreadful
Rheumatism.

No disease has puzzled the doctors
30 completely as rheumatism-that de-
plorable condition of the blood which
so often renders the strongest man as
helpless as a babe. Their mercurial
and potash remedies may in some
cases impart Temporary relief, but are
sure to ultimately result in wrecking
the entire system.
Rheumatism is a deep-seated blood
disease and only a real blood remedy
will have any effect whatever upon
1t. Most of the so-called blood rene
dies are at best only tonics and can
not reach an obstinate blood trouble
One of the most frequent symptoms of
rheumatism is tingling sensation of
the parts affected, generally brought
about from lack of free circulation
OF the blood through the very small
blood conductors. This trouble is al
ways eliminated by the use of S. S. S.;
1t Trims the blood, gives it a free and
forcible circulation, destroys the pois-
onous microbes and restores the circu-
lation to it's normal condition.
Mr.. Robert H. King, prominent
and influential citizen of West Point,
Va, writes of his experience with this
dread disease:
about five years ago was Il great
sufferer from rheumatism. was
