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 1 became convinced that
the doctors could do no good I had
spent a hundred dollars, which was
really thrown away. 1 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
chest began to grow paler and smaller,
and before long disappeared entirely. I
regained my lost weight, became strong
er, and my appetite greatly improved.
1 was soon entirely well, and my skin as
clear as piece of glass"

No
Patchwork!

One of the most encouraging features
of a cure made by SIS. (Swift's Specihc)
is its permanency. OF all diseases, it is
well 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 a 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 mercuria1 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 SIS.

demands that the size of the head shall

1t is now fashionable to dress for the
theater in very light bodices, much deco
rated, and tiny bonnets of flowers or rib
bon, or no hat at all is worn. 1t would
be good idea If every theater would have
a convenient dressing room in which hats
might be checked and kept safely. AS it
Is now, many ladies attending matinees
are obliged to hold their hats in their laps
during the entire performance and then
put them on without the aid of mirror.
An illustration is given Of a summer
wrap of black satin, embroidered with jet.
1t fits the figure at the back and in front,
and is trimmed with very full plaitings of
black mousseline de sole, which also form
a short basque. Bows of black satin are
placed on the shoulders and at the waist
in front and behind. A thick ruche of
black gauze surrounds the neck. The hat
is of black straw, trimmed with black
ostrich plumes and yellow roses.

BY the Loss OF One rype.

A single type dropped from one of the
forms of the Pittsburg Leader the other
day, and it's loss cost the paper $405. It
appears that Pittsburg concern had
advertised in that edition of The Leader
q special sale of ladies' wrappers at %
cents each. In handling the form the
figure 8 dropped out. The loss was not
noticed until next morning, when the
store was besieged by ladies wanting to
buy wrappers at cents, as advertised
The firm stood by its guns until the Last
wrapper was sold Then it sent bill
for $405 to The Leader, this being the
sum representing the difference between
cents and 90 cents ON each wrapper
sold. The Leader paid the bill without
protest. In view of the responsibilities
which newspapers are obliged TO assume
it cannot reasonably be claimed that adj
rertising rates are too high. -Exchance

WORK SHE HAS UNDERTAKEN.

The Fashion In Gloves
Miss Maude Come, who has been
sailed the Irish Joan of Arc because of
all she has done for the Irish national
monument, is about to visit the United
States. The main object of her visit
will be in reference to the centennial
celebration to be held in Ireland next
year.
Miss Come is the daughter of a colo
mel of the English army. All her people
are Conservatives and on the side of
England. While visiting friends in the
north of Ireland she saw some cruel
eviction scenes. So touched was she by
the sights she witnessed that she imme-
diately resolved to throw in her lot with
the sufferers.
She worked for a long time among
the evicted tenants, then took up the
amnesty question, and when things
looked dark and gloomy at home be-
cause of the Parnellite split she went
to France, where her reception was
most flattering. Her latest move is to
start paper called L'Irlande Libre, the
title of which sufficiently indicates the
object.
The following interesting answers
have been given by Miss Come to ques-
tions propounded to her by a represent
alive of The World:

Miss Anthony Answers Her Critics.

An interview lately appeared in the
st. Louis Republic with a Mrs. Beck
with of Brooklyn, who accused the
leaders of the suffrage movement of
being in it from mercenary motives and
of making "a fat thing" out of it. Miss
Anthony and others were mentioned by
name. Miss Anthony wrote to The Re-
public in reply. She referred to her long
connection with the movement and con-
tinued:

me to come to special place. In all Of
the laborious state campaigns, including
the long, hard one in California last
year, I have given my services without
money and without price. The various
requests that have been left to me to
use at my discretion have all been ap-
propriated to the suffrage cause. Not
dollar of them has found its way into
my pocket, and the slender income upon
which I live is derived from an annuity
purchased for me by my friends.

these women have contributed many
years of hard work and large amount

to her office every morning and does a

Recent Triumphs In Surgery.

Cleansing of the wound itself was al.
most a surgical heresy few years ago.
Fouled bandages We're the rule, and the
thicker and more abundant the dis
charges the more "laudable'' they were
considered to be. Hence in the older
works on surgery the SO called '.laud-
able" pus was as much a sign of safety
as it is now of danger. Cleanliness of
instruments, now prime consideration,
was then entirely ignored. Oftentimes
the same instruments would be used at
different times upon the dead as well as
the living body, and celebrated oper-
ator of that day was accustomed to hold
his knife between his teeth when his
hands were temporarily employed in the
wound. If a cut healed rapidly, it was
rarity sufficiently great to court COM
ment Now, the exact opposite is the
fact. The former result was rather an
accident of cleanliness than the de1iber-
ate acknowledgment of what should
have been the rule. Consequently the
most careful surgeons-those who pos
sessed instructive habits of neatness and
cleanliness-were the most successful

essence, and almost in phraseology,
the plan that Ex-Gov. Boies now pro-
poses. He adds ahe proviso that these
treasury notes are ''to be made redeem
able on demand in bullion Of either
metal at the option Of the government
at its market price" This is bimet-
allism TO be sure, but a very different
kind Of bimetallism from that which
the silver advocates wanted either in

ent. 1t is bimetallism in the sense
that two metals are to be used, but not
that two standards of value are to be
used. That is not only good financial
policy, but also good republican doc
trine. Ex-Gov. Boies should get back
into the republican party and begin
