S, S. S. is the Only Remedy
that Can Reach OBJ
stinate Cases.

1t is a great mistake to expect
20 be- cured of real, obstinate blood
diseases by remedies which are
mere tonics. Blood diseases, as
every one knows, are the most
difficult ailments TO cure, and even
the doctors are unable to.success-
fully treat them.
Every doctors prescription con-
tains potash and mercury, and the
effect Of these minerals, in nine
cases out of ten, Is worse than the
disease itself. More suffering is
produced by tho use of these drugs
in cases of Rheumatism than the
disease could causeif no treatment
whatever had been employed. Eve
ryso-called blood remedyis largely
composed of potash and mercury;
in fact, S. S. S. (Swifts Specifc)
is the only one that is absolutely
free from all mineral ingredients.
The most obstinate blood dis
eases, whether inherited or acquir-
ed, promptly yield TO this great
remedy, no matter what other
treatment has failed. 1t possesses
a wonderful power for going down
to the very roots of the trouble
and forcing out every trace Of
the faint.
Mr. George A. Davis, Of Fairfield
Ark, contracted blood poison in a pc
culiar way which developed into a most
desperate case. He writes:
Several years ago / became poisoned
by inhaling gas which was produced
by cleaning brass machinery with muri-
attic acid Before long sores broke out
all over my body and limbs, and / found
myself in a most deplorable condition
from blood poison. / was literally a
mass of sores. The best physicians
treated me, but were unable to afford
any relief whatever. / also took many
blood medicines, but they did not affect
my trouble in the least. A friend sug-

Power ola Kind Voice.

Train the voice Of your children.
Do not let them growup with harsh,
dIsagreeable voices, which CRATE on
the ear every tune they speak
French parents are very careful de-
bout this, and that Is one reason
why we admire the manners Of
little French children. They are
seldom rude and coarse when play
Ing among themselves They have
games which teach politeuess, and
some of the street songs and games
played bY the children Of French
peasants are almost as pretty as

A learned writer says: "There is
no power of love so hard to get and
keep as a kind voice. A kind hand
is deaf ahd dumb. Ii may be rough
in flesh and blood, yet do the work
of a soft heart and do IL with a soft
touch. But there is no one thing
that love so much needs as a sweet
voice to tell what it means and
feels; and it is very hard to get aud
keep in the right tone
One must start in youth and be
on the watch night and day, at
work and play, to get and keep a
voice that shall speak at all times
the thoughts of d kind heart. 1t is
often in youth that one gets a voice
or a tone that is sharp and il sticks
to one through life, and stirs up ILL
will and griet, aud falls like drop
of gall on the sweet joy of home.
Watch it day by day as a pearl of
great price, for it will ! be worth
more to you in days to come than

GARBAGE.
Its Collection Under the New
Old System Much More Sat
isfactory Than Under the
system in Force Last Year.

The contract for the collection of the
citY's garbage expired on May IA, and
at that time the city health officer took
charge of the work again. by resolu-
ton of council. The ehsnge and i'm
orovement since that time has been
simply wonderful. aud remarks to that
effect come from every quarter. Many
persons who did not know any change
had taken place were asking what had
caused the Improvement IN the collec-
ton of the garbage, and when inform
ed of the cause. they have invariably
said they wishe d it vou'd continue at
any reasonable cost, as the main thing
in garbage collection is the collection
of the garbage. The principal trouble
with the Bullordick contract was
that ii was taken at too low a
figure. This necessitated that the con-
tractor employ help at the lowest
possible price per week, and the result
of that condition was that men worke
for him only temporarily. until they
could get something to do that would
pay them. This In turn resulted in
he frequent changing of the drivers
on the wagons and continual uu-
familiarity with the routes over which
The wagons ran. and also lack of a
feeling of responsibility on the part oil
The men who did the collecting. Mr..
Bullerdick simply made the mistake
that many other bidders make, OF
bidding too low and having MS bid

THE LIGHTS
Were all on Their Go d Behavior Last
Night Because the Committee Was
Out Locking for Glimmsrs-
Changes 10 Be Ordersd.

Last night the council committee on
lights was out from S 10 10 o'clock
looking for bad lights, and also view
ing the location OF electric. gas and
naphtha lamps with thought TO the
changing of such lights as might be
found to be more useful elseR here.
The committee found no bad electric
lights. as all the lamps seemed on their
good behavior. There was not a glim-
mering light seen In all the rounds of
the committee, and it was remarked
that the lights seemed TO realize that
they were under inspection, aud were
burning up to their full candle power.
The committee also saw several
places where lights could be changed
TO great advantages. here ale lights
IN the south end that do not show
within the radius of their 2 900 candle
power beams more than one residence,
and there are others there and IN other
parts of the city whose principal use
seems to be 10 show the cattle how TO
eat grass day and night IN the pas
lures SO beautifully lighted by the arc
lamps rays. Several changes will be
recommended at the next council meet
ing. the changes TO be considered at a
meeting of the committee that
will be held before that
time. A great economy of the
city's lighting expense can be exsr
cised by dispensing with certain lights
aud substituting others of different
variety, that would be as effective in
that particular locality.
The naptha lamps are much improved
since the globes have been cleaned, an
experience that must have shocked the
globes considerably on account of its
being SO unusual under the old con
tract. The committee will see that
they are kept clean, or that they are
not paid for.
