Itching,
Burning,
Eczema

Is the external indication OF con-
dition Of the blood which produces a
fiery irritation almost uubcarable. 1t is
a mistake to think that this local irrita-
ton is the disease itself-it is simply an
evidence of disordered condition of the
blood. The seat of the disease is in the
blood, and this is why the various salvcs
and oiutments usually applied have no
effect whatever. They caunot possibly
reach the origin of the trouble; only
blood remedy can do that. 5. S. S. is
without an equal for blood diseases, and
promptly and permanently cures Eczema
and removes all taint
sMuch torture could be avoided il the
first itching symptoms were needed and
a course S.S.S. taken promptly, as APP
parently insignificant skin irritatious
usually develop into the worst form
OF Eczema unless properly treated.
II matters not what other treatment
has been tried in vain, 5. S. S. always
gets at the seat of the disease, and
forces it out.

1T NOW RESTS WITH uAvnnsricK.
Location of the western Lawn Tennis
ChnmnIn Innshin TnmrnnmcnI.

Championship Tournament
Chicago is just now looking to Omaha to
settle very troublesome matter but one
which. after ALL does not much concern any
one outside of the Windy City.
Thres of the Chicago clubs are e.riving
among themselves for the location OF the west
ern lawn tents championship tournament,
which is held in July. Last year the event
took place on the grounds Of the Kenwooi
Country club, out toward the Worlds fair
grounds. The club was then a young organ
ization. 1t had a large membership how
ever, and the courts were So prettily s. situated
that 1t had no difficulty in capturing the
prize. The matter at that time was largely
a question of mutual arrangement, and that
made it easy of settlement. During the
progress of the tournament last year, how
ever, the Western Lawn Tennis association
was formed. and into the hands of this body
has passed all jurisdiction in such ca@a9 as
this.
Roy Austin of Omaha was present at the
orgEn'zation of this association and OF course
the Omaha club became a member right from
the start G. e. Haverstick at that time
secretary Of tho Omaha club, was elected to
the general committee of the association
1t is Haversticks vote which is now needed
to settle the location of the western cham
pionship tournament for 1896 Havers'iCk is
being pressed by representatives of the Ken
wood Country, the Wyandotte and the Chi
cago clubs, but so far no one of them has
succeeded in winning him over. Yesterday
he received a telegram from l.. II. Waidncr,
who is secretary of the Chicago club, asking
that he give his proxy to the president of
that organization. Wadner was in Omaha
last August for the interstate tournament in
this city, and thought he might have 'nilu-
ence where others had failed. Havers.tck,
however has not yet decided which courts
are the best suited for the event. He has
been urgertly pressed to visit Chicago ard
settle the question there.
Apart from Haverstick's vote it is said
the Wyandottes have the best chance of cue
cess. The Kenwood Country club, however
had it last year when the courts were new
and if it can show that the rough places
have been made smooth, maybe the competi-
tors will want to go there again. The Chi
fi)9cago Tennis club has an invitation tourna-
ment, at which eight of the leading Chi
cago players will meet each other in June,
and this may have some influence one way
or other ON the decision in regard to the
other event.
The committee meets in Chicago next
Saturday to choose the location CT the
ground and all the wirepulling must there
fore, be done this week

FIELD DAY SPORTS AT THE FORT.
Second Regiment Track Athletes Give
u CrcdItnbIc. Exhibition.


1t was a very large and enthusiastic
| crowd of spectators that took themselves to
| Fort Omaha yesterday afternoon to witness
the second annual field day of the companies
of the Second infantry. United States army
The rain during the early part of the after
noon pecessitated a postponement of the
events for time, and it was not until
nearly two hours after the time set that the
first one was called The rain had left the
field in excellent condition, and when Old
Sol appeared from behind the clouds at
about $3.50 and smiled upon the large as,
semblage of people who had come to cheer
the soldier athletes. a prettier picture could
not be imagined. The athletes of the post
have bee nlookng forward to and prepar-
ing for the events for weeks past
and were therefore in very fine fettle, and
the spectators wre treated to some rare
sport Probably the most interesting events
on the program was the bicycle races foot
races and the chase for the creased pig, the
latter event causing quite ripple of ex-
citment in the grand stand, as when Mr..
Parker was let loose he made bee-lina
for 1t. This had the effect of mouse turned
loose in a theater, and not until sturdy
young athlete had the pig firmly In his
grasp could the ladies be induced to resume
their seats. AS will be seen by the sum
mary the program was very long one, and
Leutenants Wright and Wells deserve a
great deal of credit for the quickness and
smoothness with which the events were run
off. Results:

One Person IN Every Four Suffer.
From rules.

About one person In every four suffers
from some form of rectal disease, The mosl
common and annoying is itching piles. indi-
Gated by warmth. slight moisture ana intense,
uncomfortable Itching in the parts affected.
The usual treatment has been some simple
ointment or salye. which sometimes give tenn
porary relief, but nothing like a permanent
cure can be expected from such superficial
treatment.
The only permanent cure for itching piles
yet discovered is the Pyramid pile Cure not
only for itching piles, but for every other
form Of piles, blind, bleeding or prOtruding
The first application gives instant relief and
tho continued use for a short time causes
permanent removal Of the tum0rs or the
small parasites which cause the intense itch
ing and discomfort Of itching piles.
Many physicians for a long time supposed
that the remaIkable relief afforded by the
Pyramid Pile Cure was because IT was sup
posed to contain cocaine, opium or similar
drugs but such is not the case. recent
careful analysis Cf the remedy showed it to
be absolutely free from any cocaine. opium
or In fact any poisonous. injurious drugs
whatever. Sold by all druggists at 80 cants
