The
Cruel Knife!

The alarming increase in the number
of deaths which occur as the result of
surgical operation is attracting general
attention, and a :troug sentiment
against such methods of treatment is
fast developing among the most intelli-
gent classes. 1t seems that in almost
every case for which the doctors treat
ment is unsuccessful, the learned physi-
clans decide at once that an operation
must be performed, and the keen blade
of the surgeon is recklessly resorted to.
Doctors are human, and of course are
liable to make mistakes, but their mis-
takes are too fatal to be INDUCED in
promiscuously, and as so many lives are
sacrificed in this manner, it is but natural
for the public to believe that half the
operations are unnecessary, besides be-
ing fearful risk to human life, even if
successful.
II is positive fact, however, that all
operations are not necessary, and that
majority Of them are absolutely under
taken without the slightest chance of
success. The doctors have never beer
able to cure blood disease, and a sur
gical operation is their only method of
treating deep-seated cases. such as can
Ger and scrofulous affections. Aside
from the great danger. an operation
never did and never will cure cancer, as
the disease never fails to return. Can
Ger is in the blood, and common sense
teaches anyone that no disease can be
cut from the blood.

Editor Sentinel:-Well, l left Berlir
and all the American tourists that

my own edification l am here in Den
mark. Really this country ought tc
suit my Democratic friends, because il
is absolute free trade, and up to the
present writing they have never been
able to make it anything but an agri'
cultural country. The land is very fer
tile, so they are contehted raising cattle
and selling butter. Only two small
cotton factories in the whole empire
use about 1000 bales, while the protect
ed countries just around this little king
dom use 100000 bales; and the other
countries are all aourishing in diversi'
fed industries while little Denmark
pursues the even tenor Of her way and
sticks to agriculture.
The city OF Copenhagen will not
strike a stranger as anything out OF the

harbor is beautiful, and as it has now

One thing is noticeable in the charac'
ter OF the DAME is quiet, peaceable
and it seems AS if a policemen here was
unneces,arv The reason this struck
me as being remarkable. Copenhagen
is a port filled with sailors, and gener.
ally such towns after night present one
scene OF broil and confusion. I envy
the size of the men here-it is com mon
to see half.dozen men together all six

the very picture of health and strength.
Copenhagen has one name associated
with it that will 60 down in history and
last as long as time, and that is Thor.
waldsen, the greatest OF sculptors. His
works are world renowned; his Cupid
and Psyche, thus one statue alone, is
sufficient to have made a name that
would never die. and to think that he
made five hundred Of such works Of art.
There is here a large building devoted
to his work and shows what energy and

Here is case where the pain inflicted
on a six.year.old boy was especially
cruel. and after undergoing the tortures
produced By the surgeons knife he rap
idly grew worse. Mr.. J. N. Murdoch,
the father Of the boy, residing at 27s
Suodgrass street, Dallas, Texas, writes
when my son, Will, was SIX years
old, . small sore appeared on his lip,
which did not yield to the usual treat
ment, but before long began to grow. 1t
gave him q great deal Of pain, and con-
tinued to spread. He was treated by
several good doctors, who said he had
cancer, and advised that an operation
was necessary.
"After much reluctance, We weconsented,
and they cut down to the jaw bone,
which they scraped. The operation was
= severe one. but l thought it was the
only hope for my boy. Before a great
while the cancer returned, and began to
grow rapidly. We gave him many rem
edies without relief, and finally upon the
advice Of . friend, decided to try S.S.S-
(Swit's Specifc), and With the second
bottle he began to improve. After twenty
bottles had been taken, the cancer dis
appeared entirely and he was cured.
The cure was permanent one, for he is
now seventeen years old, and has never
bad a sign of the dreadful disease to re-
turn"
S.S.S. is far ahead Of all other blood
remedies, because it is the only one
which cures deep-seated obstinate blood
diseases such as Cancer, Scrofula.
Eczema, Cstarrh, Rheumatism, etc.
It is the onlv blood remedy. guaranteed
