Doctors Can't
Cure It.!

Contagious blood poison is absolutely
beyond the skill of the doctors They
may dose a patient for years on their
mercurial and potash remedies, but he
will never be rid of the disease; on the
other hand, his condition will grow
steadily worse. S. S. s. is the only cure
for this terrible affection, because it is
the only remedy which goes direct to
the cause of the disease and forces it
from the system.

PRACTICAL KINDNESS.

dierH,

These war times have tried mems soull
in many unexpected ways, but like a shaft
of sunshine and good cheer out of the cloud
of privation and endurance has been the
work that The American Tobacco Co. has
done among the Y. S. Soldiers and Sailors
ever since the war began-for when they
discovered that the camps and hospitals
were not supplied with tobacco they de-
cided to provide Them free of cost, with
enough for every man, and have already
given outright to our Soldiers and Sailors
over one hundred thousand pounds of Bat.
AK Plug" and Dukes Mixture" Smoking
Tobacco, and have bought and distributed
fifty thousand briar wood pipes, at total
cost of between fifty and sixty thousand dol.
lars.
This work has been done quietly and
thoroughly, by establishing headquarters
in each camp, so that every camp and every
hospital of the United States Army has
been supplied with enough tobacco for
every man and the sailors on thirty
United States Ships in Cuban waters have
shared with the soldiers this most welcome
Of all "rations"
Perhaps it will be only fair to remember
when we hear the remark again that
Corporations have no souls" that there
is one American corporation whose sou
