Novelty
Week., -,

The smokeless stove on
(which water is boiled in our
show window has been a
great attraction for several
days to students in phil
oSophy. The Jewel is a good
stove anyway.
The special subject for the
people this week is not
stoves, that subject is a daily
one. This week you will
have novelties of all sorts.
This is the season when
the hens 60 on strike and
the price of eggs goes sky
ward. Hens want a little
encouragement now and
then, and the best thing
known to science is green
bones. But they must be
cut up fine. We have the
best green bone cutter in the
world.
Another novelty is the
soap saver, made of re-tin-
ned wire, basket shaped,
with long handles. This is
the best soap saver known
and we have three sizes.
Cheaper than dirt and more
beautifying.
DripleSS tea and coffee
strainerS are new and SER
vicable. There's a cutoff
which prevents
coffee or tea from dripping
on the table cloth after the
cup is filled. Very cheap
and pretty too.
A g. knife Victor meat
for a quarter seems
like a dream, but it isn't. We
sell them at that price and

DIR. BAILEY'S DEATH.
Deceased Was at One Time Resi-
dent at kahului.

In the Santa Cruz (Cal) Penny Press
of August %, 1897, kindly loaned by
Mr.. Clarence White, is contained the
sad news of the death of DR.. A. H.
Bailey, presumably from apoplexy.
Following is part of the account, con-
tanning a reference to his residence in
these Islands:
DIR. A. H. Bailey was a Native Son
of the Golden West, born in Placer
County in 1855. He came to Santa Cruz
with his parents, DR.. and Mrs. F. E.
Bailey, when but 8 years of age, and
was one of the first coterie of Santa
Cruz young men who received their
early education in the public schools.
HE early exhibited a preference for
the profession of his father, and after
studying in his fathers office he at
tended the Cooper Medical Institute
for two years, and graduated from the
Hospital College of Medicine in ST.
Louis in 1888.
His father was then in the Hawai-
ian Islands, and DR.. Bailey Joined him
at Kahului, Maui. He was married on
the Islands to Miss Mollie Nelson of
New Hampshire, who died four years
afterwards, leaving to his care a little

father had returned to this place, and
died shortly afterwards.
''Dr. Bailey again visited the Islands,
and after settling up his business there,
came back to Santa Cruz in 1889 and
engaged in the practice of his profess
sion here"
To the people in this city who knew
DR.. Bailey the news is most sad in
deed, for deceased succeeded in making
of them the staunchest of friends byl

and social life.

a Mole,
Then Cancer.

Probably no disease carries such ter
ror In its path as Cancer-and well
may this dreadful affection be regarded
with horror. In an alarming manner,
1t slowly but surely preys upon the
LIES blood, bearing the victim nearer
the grave day by day. Beyond the use
of the knife the physician is powerless,
and too much cannot be said against
the folly of resorting to the knife for
cure of this terrible disease. Cam
Ger is in the blood, hence it is apparent
to all that no relief can be expected
from an operation. In ninety-nine cases
out of a hundred the cancer promptly
returns, if not in the same place, in
the same locality, and is far more ma
Egnant than before. The same is true
of attempts to remove the cancer by
means of caustic p1asters, etc., and all
who have had this treatment claim
that death cannot be more painful.
But there is a cure for cancer-one
which gets at the seat of the disease,
and removes its cause. S. S. S. is the
only real blood remedy, and cures cam
Ger and all other blood diseases, even
after other treatment has failed.
One of the we11-known residents of
Macon, Ga, is Mr.. II. Powers, the con-
tractor and builder, who lives at SIS
Ross street. For twenty years Mr..
Powers has suffered intensely from a
cancer on his face, which was treated
constantly, but grew worse all the
while. He sought the best medical
skill in vain, and could see no hope of
ever being cured.
On June %, 1896, he writes: "Twenty
years ago, while being shaved, small
mole on my face was cut, leaving an

to heal, and after a while became quite
obstinate, and began to grow. placed
myself under the treatment of promi-
nent physicians, who said I had cancer
of the most stubborn type, and though
1 took their treatment faithfully, the
cancer grew steadily all the while,
increasing in size and severity. I
also took nearly every medicine
that was recommended for the
blood, and applied various sa1ves
and ointments, all without the slightest
benefit. Year by year, found myself
steadily growing worse, for the cancer

spent hundreds of dollars with doctors,
and as much more experimenting with
various so-called remedies. l was
strongly urged by the doctors to SUBJ
nit to an operation, which they
claimed was the only hope for me.
L had we1l-nigh abandoned hope of
ever being cured, when I was induced
to try S. s. S., and even the first bottle
afforded relief. The medicine caused
the cancer to discharge, thus forcing
out the poison, and Kidding the sys-
tenn of 1t. continued to take S. s. s.
until the discharge ceased, and the
cancer healed up entirely, and I am

gestion really means? 1t means simply
that your stomach is tired. If our legs
are tired, we ride. The horse and the
steam engine do the work Why not
give your stomach ride; that is, let
something else do its work. Foods can
be digested outside of the body. All
plants contain digestive principles which
will do this. The Shaker Digestive Cor
dial contains digestive principles and is a
preparation designed to rest the stomach.
The Shakers themselves have such un-
bounded confidence in it that they have
placed 10 cent sample bottles on the

a quantity proves beneficial in a vast ma
jority of cases. All druggists keep it.
