Mr.. H. L. Myers, of 100 Mulberry street,
Newark, N. j., made the mistake of re.
lying upon remedies based upon minera,
ingredients, and for the hundreds of
dollars which be invested received oulv
disappointment in return. He saws:
II was afflicted with a terrible bl lood
disease, which was in spots at first, but
afterwards spread all over my BODY.
These soon broke out into sores, and it
is easy to imagine the suffering l en-
dured.
Before I became convinced that
the doctors could do 10 good I had
spent hundred dollars, which was
really thrown away. then tried vari-
ous patent medicines, but they did not
reach the disease. When I had finished
my first bottle of S.S.S., was greatly
improved and was delighted with the
result. The large red splotches on my
chest began to grow paler and smaller,
and before long disappeared entirely. l
regained my lost weight, became strong

I was soon entirely we'll, and my skin as
clear as piece of glass"
S.S.S. is sure cure for all manner
of blood diseases. and disappointment

CNEISD CRITICISM.

The Times us neither patience no"
sympathy with some OF the hings that
have been made at Gov. McLaurin and
his brothers. This paper did not sup
port Gov. McI.aurin in his contest for
the Office. We preitrteI anothe" nd
openly said 50. Nor do we endorse al
that The governor has done. He mas
made one eg"eg .ous and costly m stake
the conven;ng Of the legislature in
extra session. He made still another
and greater one waen he vetoed the
capitol bill. But We are not disposed
to hold him responsible for the over
flows and droulhs-or even the lynch
ings that have recently occurred. We
believe in tolerance and common >en>e
in all things. We abhor and despise
petty filings and spiteful criticism
founded only on i'll feeling and personal
dislike. Recently Mr.. Walter Nc
Laurin, who is warden of penitentiary,
has been criticised for ente claiming his
brother who visited him at the Deni-
Tertiary. This is 50 unjust and 50
discourteous in his critics as to arouse
a sympathy for the McLaurins. Mis-
sissippi may have some citizens who
are penurious and inhospita5le, but
there are not man.. even of these, who
would deny the warden the privilege Of
visiting his family and having them
visit him in turn. Criticisms of this
order will never hurt the McLaurins
so badly as it vii! their critics. Nor
do we believe it is right to criticise
Gov. McLaurin for being in New York
when d negro was lynchei at Crystal
Springs. He could not foresee that
this thing would happen before ne left
and he went in the interest of Missis-
slppi-to promote her levee interests.
When public official merit criticism.
the Times believes it is right to let
them have it. but we believe in "civ.ng
the devil his due and though We may
take issue with The governor on some
important matters, yet we should no,
spitefully use him. OR be intolerant or
unreasonable in viewing his Official ccn-
duet. Times.

Referring to the many Improvements
of a public nature being made in num-
erous Mississippi towns a. the present
time, the able Clariou.Ledger says:
This is an era Of public improve
ment in Mississippi. an epidemic of
bOnd.issulng has strurk Us. and our
people no longer seem afraid o. con-
tracing public debts. If not carried
to excess, If not made too blrdensome
on the communities that are indul ging
in such internal works. it will rebound
to the glory of the State.
More capital is being invested in
Mississippi today than at any time
since the war. Private money IS being
put in new railroads, in timber Lands,
in farming lands. in town houses. in
oil mills and in factories of this, that
and the other kind. Public funds are
being placed on electric car lines,
electric light plants. walerworks.
sewerage. street paving and. best of
all. perhaps. in better country roads
and highways.
Among the towns that have already
uetiueu W issue DOnQS tOr such inter-
nal improvements as noted above. or
that are seriously considering the
matter, are Canton. Grenada, Water
Valley, Oxford, Holly Springs. Green
vile, Greenwood, Port Gibson. Halle
hurst, Crystal Springs. Brook haven.
Summit. McComb City, Scranton.
Biloxi. Aberdeen, West Point. Colum.

making nearly a million dollars for |

lave most all been made the past few !
months. right in the midst of the
financial panic, and what is most re-
narkable and satisfactory is that
ne bonds in every single instance. so
ar as the Clarion-Ledger has been able
o learn, have been purchased with
ZONE money.

The two most critical times in a
woman's life are the times which
make the girl woman, and the

feminine, promotes regularity OF the

"The millions of dollars worth OF
foreign goods rushed in from abroad
By importers who had no regard for
the prosperity Of the goyernmentor of
the worklngmen, will prove a serious
handicap TO the workings Of the Ding
ley law. The fact that enormous
quantities Of goods in excess Of pres
ent demands have been brought in,
will, of course, check the impOrtatiOns
of the first few months after the
enactment Of the Dingley law, and at
the Isamei time reduce the demands
upon the home manufacturers for
their goods. People cannot, expect
that the new law will be at once
either as revenue producer
or a reyiver Of industries, because OF
the enormous importations already
made in anticipation of its enactment.
But for the retrospective clause OF
the Dlngley bill, they would have
been much greater before the final
enactment of the law"

iS-not paying eight percent on large

Strict construction of the law may

the law been strictly construed. The

that the treasurer Is doing this for
