A School Girls Nerves.
From tie " New Era" ereen.ouro. Ind.

1othen who have young daughters Of
school age should watch their health more
carefully than their studies. The proper
development Of their body is of the first i'm
portance. After the confinement of the
school room, plenty Of out-of-door exercise
should be taken. It is better that their
children never learn their n, b, c's, than that
by learning them they lose their health.
But all this is self.evident. Everyone
admits it-everyone knows it, but everyone
does not know how to build them up when
once they are broken down. The following
method of one mother, if rightly applied,
may save your daughter:
The young lady was Miss Lucy Barnes,
Nrs. Stephen Barnes, who lives near Bur
ney, Ind. She is bright young lady. is
fond of books, although her progress in this
line has been considerably retarded by the
considerable amount of sickness she has ex-
perienced. She has missed two years of
school on account of her bad health, but now
her health has been restored.
Her father was talking of her case to a
newspaper man one day recently. my

the story of his daughter, Mr.. Barnes con-

was twelve years old, she began to grow
weak and nervous. 1t was, of course, y deli
cate age for her. She gradually grew weaker
and her nerves were at such tension that
the least little noise would irritate her very
much, and she was very miserable. There
was q continual twitching in the arms and
lower limbs, and we were afraid that she
was going to develop st. Vitus' dance.
She kept getting worse and finally we
had to take her from her school and hel
studies. She was strong and healthy before

almost lifeless. We did everything we could
for her, and tried all the doctors who we
thought could do her any good, but without
result.
"There was an old family friend near
Milford who had daughter afflicted the
same way, and she was cured by DR.. Viii.

1t is reported ~ 1t President Nc
Kinley will allow General John G..
Black to serve his full term as United
States District Attorney for the
northern district of Illinois.
This action upon the part of the
administration is said to be in con-
sideration of the aid received from
the gold democrats last fall The
Chicago Times Herald devotes nearly
two columns to eulogy of the brave
old soldier and pays him as splendid
a tribute as pen could possibly write.
This shows that to be Republican
or gold Democrat-thes same thing
is to be, almost an angel. The tribute
paid Gen. Black, is deserved one
but it sounds queer when we remem-
Der how, only few short years ago
he was most villianously attacked by
every Republican paper ia the coun-
try. Gen. Black was then supposed
to be a straight Democrat and as
pension commissioner, he was the OBJ

can press. True, he has faced no bull
lets since that time, but then he wa
a Democrat and therefore william,
traitor and an enemy of the soldier.
Now he is one of the gold bug allies
of the Republican party and there
fore it is the duty eff all his former
traducers to change their tune. We
are glad to note that Republican pa
pers are forced to honor Gen. Black,
but with the distinct remembrance of
the two opposite opinions so recently
held by these papers, we are disposed
to place low estimate upon their
opinions of any man. A Democrat,

Out
For Cancer!

Few people are born entirely free from
blood faint. This is often very slight or
remote, and sometimes may not develop
at all in one generation, but breaks out
In a serious disease later.
Cancer, the most dreadful of all dis
eases, is often The result of some blood
faint inherited from generations back.
It often appears as mere mole or in
significant pimp1e, which later develops
into an alarming condition. No one
knows but that he may be subject to an
inherited impurity in the blood, nor can
he tell whether or not this may some
day crop out in the form of destructive
cancer. It is, therefore, important that
any little sore or scratch, which does
not readily heal, be given prompt atten-
ton, or serious condition may result.
Mr.. Robert Smedley, of Ocala, Fla,
was the victim of malignant cancer,
which first appeared in the manner
above described. He writes:
"At first paid no attention to the
little blotches on my face, thinking they
would soon pass away. Before long,
however, they became sore, and soon
began to enlarge. I applied ordinary
local remedies, but they had no effect,
and then consulted physician. When
Twice-a-week plain dealer. (Cresco, Howard County, Iowa) 1895-1913, 1897-11-19

he told me had cancer, became
alarmed and fastened to obtain treat
ment for I knew how dangerous cancer
was.
81 received the best medical atten-
ton, but the cancer continued to
grow worse until the physicians
finally said that 1 would have to
have an operation performed, as that
was the only hope for me. This I re-
fused to submit to, as knew cancer was
blood disease, and my common sense
told me that 1t was folly to expect an
operation to cure blood disease.
Knowing S. S. S. to be good blood
remedy I decided to try it, and the first
bottle produced an Improvement. I
continued the medGine, and in four
months the last scab dropped off. Ten
years have elapsed, and not sign OF
the disease has returned"
The alarming increase in the number
of deaths which occur as the result of a
surgical operation is attracting general
attention, and strong sentiment against
such methods of treatment is fast de-
veloping among the most intelligent
classes. It seems that in almost every
case where the doctors treatment is
unsuccessful, the learned physicians de-
eide at once that an operation must be
performed, and the keen blade of the
surgeon is reckless1y resorted to.
The many caustic plasters which are
applied to remove cancers are more pain
full than death, and the danger of a sur
gical operation is as great as the disease
it elf. No plaster or surgical oper-
alton can cure cancer, because it is
blood disease; the destructive cancel
cells are in the blood, and cannot be
cut out, or removed by local treatment.
AS the disease must be forced from the
blood, it is only reasonable to rely upon
real blood remedy for cure, one
which goes direct to the cause of the
trouble and removes it.
S. S. S. (Swift's Speciic) is the only
known cure for cancer and other obsti-
nate and deep-seated blood diseases such
as Scrofula, Eczema, catarrh, Rheuma-
