In Good Old Times.

The thousands of ludicrous valentines
that fly nowadays like winged caricatures
were not thought of until long after the
custom had obtained firm foothold
throughout the world. The good old times
saw valentines composed of intertwined
hearts, and hand and heart ingeniously
cut out of paper. A motto was usually
written across the design, and tho person
who received it was certain to treasure 1t
as one Of the keepsakes of life. Sometimes
the ornament would be lock of hair WOW
en- into letters, representing the daily
work of fair fingers at the fireside and the
window. Now and then the motto would
be badly spelled, or couohed in the quaint
language of the elder poets. Our ances-
tors had an photography Of their own, as
simple and odd as their lives look to us
now, and If some of the old valentines
which circulated 100 years ago could be
dragged from their hiding places they
would be greeted with laughter by the
generations of today.

Deaf {
From Catarrh.

The sufferer from catarrh, perhaps,
meets with more encouragement in
seeking a cure than those afflicted
with all other ailments. After ex-
hausting The skill of the best physi-
clans, and inhaling various mixtures,
paying out large sums for doctors
fees and medicines, he finds himself
either as bad off as at first or great
deal worse.
The cause of this is easily explained.
&c disease is in the blood, and only a
Sv- blood remedy can possibly have
any effect upon it. The doctors being
unable, with their stereotyped RENE
dies of potash and mercury, to cure
diseases of the blood, direct their
efforts toward treating the symp-
toms of the disease, and ignoring it's
cause. The inhaling of various sprays,
and use of washes, ETC., is but SUI
perficia1 and temporary treatment,
and cannot possibly effect cure.

Poor
Blood

When a horse Is poor IN flesh,
a new harness won't give him
strength. IF a house Is cold
new furniture won't warm 1t.
IF your strength is easily ex-
hausted; work a burden;
nerves weak; digestion poor;
muscles soft; If you are pale
and worn out, the trouble is
with the blood. It Is not so
much IMPURE blood as
POOR blood. Pills won't
make this blood rich; nor will
bitters, nor iron tonics, any
more than a new harness will
give strength to the horse, or
new furniture will make a
house warm. For poor blood
you want something that will
make rich blood.

in a deplorable condition, the buildings
were overcrowded and medical at

dying. A girl of years of age weighed
only ten pounds, and several adults
were under fifty pounds in weight. The

There is an immense immigration to

going there weekly, deserving their
wives and families. This place is the
most destitute of any part of Central
India. 1t is estimated that the present
famine is the greatest Of the century,
and will greatly surpass that of 1876

belt extends to Rawalpindi and Bellary.

Mrs. Josephine Polhill, of Due West,
S. c., was for years sufferer from
this distressing complaint, and has
learned by experience its fortunes.
She says:
"For years was the victim of the
worst case of catarrh that 1 ever
heard of. I was treated by several
doctors, and took numerous medicines
stead of being benefited my condi-
ton grew worse steadily.
"The trouble became so deep-seated
that was entirely deaf in one ear.
It is difficult to describe my condition,
but some idea of the ravages of the
disease can be obtained when 1 state
that all the inside of my nose, includ-
ing part of the bone s1oughed off. 1t
can be readily understood how offen-
sive all this was, and how unbearable
my condition became. When the
disease had gone this far the physi-
clan gave me up as incurable, and
told me would never be any better.
Reading of many similar cases be-
ing cured by S. S. S., I determined to
try it as a last resort. soon discov-
cred that all my former treatment
had been wrong, as the disease was in
the blood, and only a blood remedy
could cure 1t. began to improve at
once, and grew better as 1 continued
to take S. S. S. 1t seemed to get at
the seat of the disease, and after a
few weeks treatment I was entirely
cured, and for more than seven years
have had no sign of the disease"
Catarrh is one of the deep-seated
blood diseases, and only thorough
blood remedy will have any effect
upon it. S. S. S. is the only blood
remedy that is guaranteed

Fill bottle or common glass with urine
and let it stand twenty-four hours; sedi'
