No
Theory Here.

The greatest claims for S.S.S. (Swift's
Speci6c) are made by those whom it has
cured, and after all the most valuable
reputation is one which is given by those
who speak from experience. We could
publish page of what we claim S.S.S.
will do, but the people prefer to read
of what it has done, and hence we give
the testimony of reputable, well-known
people in different parts of the country,
who gladly tell of how S.S.S. has cured
them of blood diseases, after trying
other treatment in vain.
No wonder S.S.S. has such staunch
friends. The experience Of those who
take it to-day will be the same as of
those who twenty years ago found it the
only cure. Blood diseases are obstinate,
and cannot be cured by one medicine
in dozen which claims to cure them;
SO when S.S.S. is taken with satisfactory
results, after a disappointing expert
euce with other remedies, it is not
strange that it has grateful friends by
the score.

MIR. William Sewers, of Bradford Ohio,
was cured by S.S.S. ten years ago of a
severe blood poison, and writes that to
this day no sign of the dreadful disease
has ever returned. He says:
81 had terrible blood disease which
is considered iucurable, and was treated
for long time by the best physicians,
but they did me no good. The disease
seemed to get frmer hold on me, and
attacked my tongue and throat, which
were soon full of vile ulcers.
81 changed doctors several times, and
afterwards took nearly every blood rem
edy on the market, without the slightest
benefit. After FIVE years OF treatment
which did me no good whatever, l was
induced to try S.S.S. This remedy
proved itself equal to the case, for II q
few months was entirely cured ard my
skin was perfectly clear and smooth.
I could hardly believe that the cure was
permanent, but ten years have elapsed
and no sign CT The disease has yet ap-
peared."

the exquisite architectural effect, the
massiveness and appropriateness of the
work. The completion of the mOnu-
ment at a cost Of nearly 100000 has
been one of the swiftest undertakings
of like nature that we have record Of.
The first meeting of the Grant mOnu
ment committee was held on April 3,
1892, and over $4,000 American citizens
contributed the money necessary for
the erection of the great tomb. The
ground on which the tomb stands rises
40 feet above the city. The design
is the work of John H. Duncan. The
tomb is intended to be emblematical
of the hero. The square DOric base is
typical of his military career, the cir
cular cupola is emblematic of his civil
life and the stepped dome that COM
pleteS the structure announces that it
is the tomb Of a warrior. The exterior
Of the monument is Of granite and it's
interior is of marble. In the main floor
is the crypt, 80 feet wide, where are
spaces designed for the sarcophagi of
General Grant and eventually of Mrs
Grant. The sarcophagi are of Monticello,
Wis, granite.
The construction of the foundation
was begun in June 1891. 1t is of con-
crete, 10 feet by ITO feet at the base
and 10Y feet square at the top Its
depth is % feet. The top of the founda-
ton is 134 feet above high water in
the Hudson. The main part of the
superstructure, that between the foun-
dation and the base of the dome, is
100 feet square to the building line and

is IS feet high. 1t is constructed OF
Maine granite, as is the whole exterior
OF the monument. The monument of.
fers the same appearance upon its
northern, eastern and western sides
These sides are Of plain granite, the
walls being broken in the center by
line OF four granite columns set in
recesses and 80 feet high. Window
openings are cut in the wall. At so
feet from the foundation is the lower
edge Of the cornice. Huge lion head
blocks Of granite form a projecting
layer above this, and one more layer
OF granite blocks completes the main
body. The monument faces the south,
and on this side are the the only ap-
proach and entrance to the tomb. There
are no windows on this side. The en-
trance is through q brazen door, This
front of the tomb has also the four
granite columns at the entrance. But
just outside Of these is another line of
futed columns, and these are six in
number, 80 feet high, feet in diameter
at the base and at the top. They
are part Of the portico. The lintels are
OF the same material The portico is
in the Ionic style, and is in itself
feature Of great beauty. The approach
to the portico is formed of granite plat
forms 100 feet wide, which affords
gradual ascent Of 40 feet. The main
apartment within the monument, under
the great dome, is called memorial hall.
Around the dome, 80 feet above the
main floor Of the tomb, stained glass
windows let in a soft light. Directly
