rative plants and cut flowers on the upper
floor of the agricultural building. AS
usual the leading exhibitors in this depart
ment were the Brattleboro florists, C. E..
Allen and d. McGllivray, but their exhi-
bits as well as those which, though smaller,
were equally as beautiful, can be only in
adequately described. Mr.. Aliens exhi-
bit, covering over 225 feet of space, con-
sisted of palms, ferns, and topical plants
of varieties most easy to cultivate, potted
plants, bulbs for winter forcing, and a
large display of cut flowers of the choicest

writes:
"About three years ago my grand
daughter Bertha Wildwood, was
thrown from horse, receiving a
wound of the scalp. Under the treat
ment of physicians the wound seemed
obstinate, and for several months re-
NAMED about the same, until it finally
became very angry looking, and broke
out into running sore. This soon
spread to other parts of the scalp, and
ran down the side of the neck, in
creasing in severity, and fearfu11y
dishguring her.
After being constantly under a
physician for year, and her condi-
ton great deal worse than at first,
we placed her under the care of the
faculty of a well-known hospital, but
even the treatment she received there
failed to arrest the terrible sore.
Reading of the many cures of
blood troubles effected by S. S. S., we
decided to try it, and it relieved her
promptly. AT first this remedy seemed
to increase the discharge, forcing ont
the poison; this soon ceased altogether,
and the place began to heal. In a
few months she was entirely cured,
and scarcely mark now remains
where the disease held full sway"

blood diseases, and is the only cure
for Contagious Blood Poison, Scrofula,

tjThPoWn
From a Horse

Il matters not from what cause the
blood becomes poisoned, it is impossi-
bic for the doctors to effect a cure.
This class of disease has puzzled the
science of medicine for ages, and the
same treatment that was employed
centuries ago is now prescribed. Pot
ash and mercury are the component
parts of every doctors prescription
for diseases of the blood.
Many of the so-called blood puri-
fiers are based on potash and mercury.
In fact, S. S. S. (Swift's. Specific) is
the only blood remedy that is guar
anteed purely vegetable, and is the
only one that contains no harmful
ingredients. S. S. S. is the only blood
remedy that cures real blood diseases,
obstinate cases that physicians and
rother remedies have failed to cure.
1t never fails to cure blood disease
no matter how deep-seated the case.

make a profit on the round 100000
bushels of real wheat which he has
placed in HIS hands by the provision
man, Is now the question
The report is going the rounds that
the whole affair was productive or re-
suits Indicating a big Armour-Leiter
combine. In many minds this rumor
was given credence. The manipulation
of the local market by Letter agents
pulling the wires from the Liverpool
end was recited over and over. This
idea. however, Is ridiculed by the ma
1ority OF traders.
Some members OF the board say that
Letter has secured 100000 bushels of
the cereal. Others place the figure as
high as 16,000.O 900. while the more con-
servative are willing to admit that
half the latter amount il nearer the
correct estimate. Mr.. Letter asserts
that Just as much OF this will so
abroad az the foreign markets call for,
II they pay him his price"
"Some folks on the board think
can't transport grain eastward by rail
without a loss. do they?" said Mr.
Letter. 'Wen, possibly they can't, but
I'm willing to play out my end OF ths
game along my own lines. and may
differ with these prophets consider
ably"
The Post prints the following con.
cerning the present situation in the
December wheat deal: Dec. 81, "set'
Ting day" on the board Of trade, will
witness the elimination Of the gigantic
Leiter-Armour deadlock. The trade
Will not be surprised then to learn tina
