the tiff between Sir William Har-

Mr.. H. L. Myers, of 100 Mulberry street,
Newark, N. J., made the mistake of re-
lying upon remedies based upon mineral
ingredients, and for the hundreds of
dollars which he invested received only
disappointment in return. He says:
II was afflicted with terrible blood
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 I en-
dured.
"Before I became convinced that
the doctors could do no good I had
spent a hundred dollars, which was
really thrown away. then tried vari-
Gus 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

No
Patchwork.

One of the most encouraging features
of cure made by SIS. (Swift's Specifc)
is its permanency. Of all diseases, it is
we'll known that those of the blood are
the most obstinate, and therefore the
most difficult to cure. The medical
profession, in fact, have virtually adj
mitted that real, deepseated blood
disease is beyond their skill.
OF course, their admission is not made
in so many words, but actions speak
louder than words, and their inability to
cure, after months and often years of
treatment, is sufficient evidence that dis
eases of the blood cannot be cured by
doctors. Their mercurial mixtures, al
though taken faithfully, only cover up
the symptoms of the disease, inducing
the patient to feel that he is being cured;
but when he is sooner or later seized
with stiff joints, pain in the bones, ETC.,
the evidence of the doctors patchwork
is conclusive. Such results cannot be ex-
pected from the use of S. S. S. Being
purely vegetable, containing no harm
full mineral ingredients, it is the only
blood remedy which acts on the true
principle of forcing the disease from
the system, building up rather than
tearing down the health. No loss of
hair, no stiff joints, no decrepit mercu-
rial wrecks result from the use of S.S.S.

WISDOM FOUND IN THE WOODS.
and Books AMI Philosophy Of journalism Discussed IN
the Wildwood.

to succeed with her pen must enter the
working school of journalism and learn
much She must learn that what suits
one editor doesn't suit another; she must
learn that to succeed she must feel the
pulse of her audience, and she must
also learn that, though it is the
womanliness of her work that makes
il valuable, womanliness and weak
ness are not synonymous. When an
editor wants an article from woman
he prefers ii should bear the stamp of her
sex, because then he's sure that both
men and women will like it. Once in
awhile even the woman writer likes to
tell something of her personal experience,
and here's a bit of my weakness coming
in. The school of journalism is one where
women, the right kind of women, get to
know how good men are. In all work
there are bad men and bad women, but
from personal experience | would like to
say that l think there are more kind
men, more sympathetic men, more gem
erous men, and more goOd men among
the newspaper fraternity than in any 9th
er profession. They see so much of real
life that they can sympathize with a
real sorrow and are not fooled by a sham.
They see so mucn of weakness that they
can think of the temptations as well as
the sin, and be ready to forgive, and
with it all they see so much of joy that
they have a ready laugh for the jest and
sincere good wishes for whoever is start
ing out to enjoy himself. Prejudice?
