Beware
OF the Knife.

Mr.. Lincoln Nelson, of Marshfeld, Mo-,
writes: "For six years have been
sufferer from a scrofulous affection OF
the glands of my neck, and all efforts
of physicians in Washington, D. c.,
Springfield, ILL.,, and St. Louis failed to
reduce the enlargement. After siz
months constant treatment here, my
physician urged me to submit to a re-
mova1 of the gland. Atthis critical mo-
ment a friend recommended S.S.S.,
and laying aside deep-rooted preju-
dice against all patent medicines, l be-
gan its use. Before I had used one bot
tie the enlargement began to disappear,
and now it is entirely gone, though I am
not through with my second bottle yet.
Had only used your S.S.S. long ago,
I 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. S.S.S. is the only
real blood remedy; it gets at the root Of
the disease and forces it out perma-
nently.

He Meant Well.

The new waiter had done his best all
day and was flattering himself that his
Fifth street employer had noticed what a
good beginning he had made.
He had nearly hustled his legs off to be
quick and lively, as requested by the din
ers at the restaurant, and had only spilled
one bowl Of soup down a diners neck,
broken two plates, slipped up on piece
of oleomargarine and thrown hot coffee In
the oarver's face and upset three bottles Of
catchup. Take 1t all In all, he was doing
we'll.
He would have told you so himself.
Then q man came in and got confused.
He said he was no good and slow and for
getful and refused to forgive him for step
ping on his toes as he sprang around tho
table, and the new waiter got dismayed.
Presently he disappeared and returned
with small covered saucer. The minute
he got in the dining room from the kitchen
it was plain that he had forgotten whose
the order was. So 1t was no surprise whom
he began to circle the room, asking each
man in it as he went:
"Did you order apricotsp"
"No," came the answer from 18 Of
them, and at the nineteenth the smile was
given him. But he stuck to it and finally
fetched up at a good natured chap, who
replied to the oft repeated question:
eyes; ordered apricots."
A look Of happy relief came over the
waitor's face.
"Well, we amt got any," said he smil-
ingly as he placed the saucer before him,
"but here's prunes.
And for five minutes by the electric
clock the human hyenas laughed unfeel.

The following is said to have beer
written by an actor. But this MAJ
well be questioned.
I've seen the rope-walk down the lane,
The sheep-run in the vale;
I've seen the dog watch on the ship,
The cow-slip in the dale:
I've seen the sea-foam at the mouth,
The horse-f1y in the air;
I've know the bull-warkS on the deck,
And the fireworks many d scare,
I've seen abundance on the plate,
The lamp-light on the floor;
I've seen the catfish in the sea,
And O hat-stand by the door;
I've known the mill-race in the glen,
The heartburn in the breast;
I've seen doorstep on the street,
And watch-spring in the vest.

Fort Valley Leader: As there seems 20
be a number OF names suggested for pres
ident Of the next Senate, We would sug-
gest the name of Hon. G.. O.. Gray. the
senator from this senatorial district at
the next election. Mr.. Gray was n mem-
Der Of the last House from Houston couu-
~, and his record IS one that Is above
reproach. He made his influence felt ia
the last legislature, and should he be
elected president ~ the next Senate. will
make one OF the best presiding officers
that body has ever elected. We take
great pride In suggesting his name for the
place Of president, and hope that he viii
be- elected.
