1t matters not from what cause the
blood becomes poisoned, it is inpossi-
BILE for the doctors to effect Il cure.
This class of disease has puzzled the
science of medicine for ages, and the
same treatment that WAS employed
centuries ago is now prescribed. Pot
ash and mercury are the component
parts of every doctors prescription
for diseases of the blood.
Many of the so-called blood puri-
fers are based on potash and mercury.
In fact, S. S. S. (Swift's Specific) is
the only blood remedy that is guar
anteed purely vegetable, and is the
only one that contains no harmful
ingredients. S. S. 5. is the only blood
remedy that cures real blood diseases,
obstinate cases that physicians and
other remedies have failed to cure.
1t never fails to cure a blood disease
no matter how deep-seated the case.

NuT. II. hunn, OF Marion, hanSaS;
writes:
about three years ago my grand
aug h ter Bertha Wildwood, was
thrown from 4 horse, receiving a
wound of the scalp. Under the treat
ment of physicians the wound seemed
obstinate, and for several months re-
mained about the same, until it finally
became very angry looking, and broke
out into a running sore. This soon
spread to other parts of the scalp, and
ran down the side of the neck, in
creasing in severity, and fearfully
disfguring her.
"After being constantly under a
physician for year, and her condi-
ton great deal worse than at first,
we placed her under the care of the
faculty of a well-known hospital, but
even the treatment she received there
failed to arrest the terrible sore.
Reading of the many cures of
blood troubles effected by S. S. s., we
decided to try it, and it relieved her
promptly. AT first this remedy seemed
to increase the discharge, forcing out
the poison; this soon ceased altogether,
and the place began to heal. In n
few months she was entirely cured,
and scarcely n mark now remains
where the disease held full sway"
S. s. S. is the right remedy for all
blood diseases, and is the only cure
for Contagious Blood Poison. Scrofula,
Eczema, Cancer, Rheumatism, Ca
tarrh, etc., no matter how decp-se ated
the case. S. S. s. is guaranteed

PLUcK AND GENEROSITY RECoG-
NIZED.
A Winchester, va, Fire Company
Celebrates the Birthday Of
Charles Broadlcay Rouss.

From the Rockville (C0nnectie,a) Leader.
In previous issue of the Leader men
ton was made of the success of Charles
Broadway Rouss, of New York, in work
ing himself up from the position of a
poor boy without dollar to that of a
merchant prince. Our ''boys in blue"
will remember. perhaps. the fact that Mr..
Rouss was participant in the civil war,
but on the other side; that he built up a
fair competence which he lost by the war,
but instead of sitting down and whining
and cursing fate, aud it might be said
cursing the North also, he left the plow
share in the furrow, packed his little grip
sack and started out to make his home
and seek his fortune among those against
whom he had fought. Laying all bitter
ness aside, and uniting in friendly hand
grasps with all former foes, he was below
ed by all.
1t is not strange that with such a heart
as has this man, his sympathies should
go out toward his own former comrades
in arms. His gifts in this line can hard
ly be figured up. You can read of his
magnificent contribution to the Battle
Abbey of the South, and some other
larger sums, but the innumerable smaller
private gifts and helps are only shown
ON the books of the recording angel.
In view of the above facts, too, it is not
perhaps so strange that his little home
town, Winchester, Va. should take occa-
sion to honor his memory and recognize
his good qualities publicly, believing, no
doubt, that it is far better to honor the
living than the dead.
The firemen of Winchester arranged to
do him honor last week when he arrived
at the age of 81 years. Mr.. Rouss was
not present as his blindness would pre-
vent his seeing and enjoying it, but he
sent his contribution, a sum not men
toned
The mayor of Winchester made an ad-
dress in which he referred to the general
character and disposition of the man.
He spoke of him as n little boy selling
matches and soap on the court steps OF
his confronting difficulties disorders and
defeat; of his being compelled to pillow
his head in tue streets of New York, but
Phenix-like surmounting all obstacles
until lie became merchant prince The
address was glowing tribute to the true
worth of the man. This was followed by
an original poem by a lady of the city.
The above is in line with the oft ex-
pressed sentiment of the Leader, that
appreciation of good deeds should be
shown to the living rather than to his
mourners

The following is an excerpt from
Charles Town letter. date Feb. 18th, TO
the Southern Churchman, published at
Richmond
well now, Mr.. Editor, will you print
something for me, eulogistic of our
Church, and state (moral. not physical
state, meanl? desire to cay in the be-
ginning, that we are, as Church, very
much alive, and We should glory in that.
for whilst it is true, as you know, that
good churches sre necessity aud bless
ing, it is, per contra. equally true that
dead churches are both improbable and
undesirable in any community. Old
fashioned prayer meetings would be de-
cidedIy preferable. Widely opposite
from dead Church is our grand old
Zion and Whist grand young man is
our pator, the Rev. w. L. Gravatt. l am

Bishop, that he is the right man in the
right place'-no doubt about that-if he
can stand the work. He has already done
much to improve aud elevate the situa-
ton here. Notwithstanding the help
given him occasionally by the Rev. Isaac
A. Cau6eld. just how he covers such q
large field as this is, to say the least, try
ing if not marvellous.

But when physical weakness or disease IS
added to a woman's burden it becomes al
together too heavy. No woman can be
cheerful or hopeful who is dragged down
by continual pain and physical wretch
edness.
The special weaknesses peculiar to the
feminine organism are comparatively easy
to overcome if the earlier symptoms are
given proper attention. But if allowed to
go unchecked, they are liable to develop
into serious, chronic complications.
ANY woman afflicted with these delicate
ailments ought to have the immediate aid
of DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. 1t is
a perfect and unfailing specific for all dis
eases of the feminine organs. II was de-
vised for this one purpose, and acconp-
fishes this purpose as no other medicine
has ever done.
For nearly 80 years DIR. Pierce has been
chief consulting physician of the Invalids'
Hotel and Surgical institute, at Buffalo,
N. Y, where in conf junction with his stan
of associate specialists, he has successfully
treated many thousand cases of " female
complaint"
No physician living has had more ex-
tended opportunity to study this class of
diseases in actual practice. No medicine
ever invented has done for women what his
"Pavorite Prescription" has.

THE REST CURE.

This is often the best cure. But many
people cannot afford to rest indefinitely
Worse still, the very knowledge that they
cannot, seriously interferes with the best use
of the rest they have. Too often going to the
doctor means that the patient shall stop short,
while cares aud duties and expenses continue.
Many, therefore, hesitate and delay.

THE FUTURE OF SANTA FL
Gov. Princes Address Upon the Posi-
bi,ities Which Are Within the
Grasp of Our Citizens.
SOME VERY VALUABLE SUGGESTIONS
A Number of Things Easy of Accom-
plishment Which Will Hasten the
Growth of the City.

At the meeting held in the court house
Tuesday evening, ex.Gov. Prince deliv-
cred an address upon "The Future of
Santa Fe, and how we can promote it,"
that is worthy of the consideration of
every businessman in the city. The rec
concentrations are 80 practical, the sug-
gestions 80 easily accomplished that a
number of them are here given, for the
benefit Of those who did not hear the
speaker. As an introduction Mr.. Prince
said
"The first thing to be done by an or
ganization which looks to the improve
ment and development of a town, is to
see what its probable future is, so as to
aid in bringing that about speedily and
in the best way, and not waste energy by
eyertions in some directions in which
success is impossible 1t 10 the
part of wisdom to observe just what ma
fitted any particular locality for, and then
to proceed, as far as possible, to work or
the lines thus indicated.
"In our case this is easy. Santa Fe has
certain marked local features. It is 1000
feet high; it is situated in the foot-hilli
of mountain range; and it has won
derfully delightful and healthful climate
y Not to innumerate all the
possibilities, little consideration will
show that the natural destiny of SAINTS
Fe is to be charming residence town
peopled by those who wish for superior
climate and beautiful scenery, and Incl
dentally center for tourist travel and {
resort for invalids. r Had on
people commenced on this line when tn
railroad came in 1880, instead of attempt
ing to work against nature and achiev
the impossible, Santa Fe would to-day b
much larger and more beautiful plac
than Colorado Springs. 1t has create
advantages to begin with; it's climate
very much finer, both winter and summer
II has the resources of antiquity; the at
traction of foreign travel combined witt
the security of our own flag; the charm
of delightful social life with militar
headquarters as it's nucleus, and nam
known throughout the world.
"Colorado Springs has nothing what
ever and had to be built up from the frs
foundation. Yet to-day they have
beautiful city co obtaining hundreds of ey
pensive residences, full Of every charm Q
modern life and society, and believed t
possess the wealthiest population on tn
average of any town in America. Tha
Santa Fe is different, in my opinion,
