Of a beautiful complexion

Mr. II. T. Shobe, 77o4 Lucas Avenue, st. Louis,
Mo, says: my daughter was afflicted for years
with disfguring eruption on her face, which
resisted all treatment She was taken to two
celebrated health springs, but received no bene-
fit. Many medicines were prescribed, but with
out result until we decided to try S: s. s., and by
The time the first bottle as finished the eruption
began to disappear. A dozen bottles cured her
completely and left her skin perfectly smooth:
She is now seventeen years old, and nota sign OF
the embarrassing disease has ever returned"
S. S. S. is positive, unfailing cure for
the worst forms of skin troubles. 1t IS
the greatest of all blood purifiers, and the
only one guaranteed purely vegetable.

BAD BLOOD,
BAD COMPLEXION,

The skin is the seat of an almost end
less variety of diseases. They are known
by various names, but are all due to the
same cause, acid and other poisons in
the blood that irritate and interfere with
the proper action of the skin.
To have smooth, soft skin, free from
all eruptions, the blood must be kept pure
and healthy. The many preparations OF
arsenic and potash and the large number
of face powders and lotions generally
used in this class of diseases cover up
for a short time, but cannot remove per-
manently the ugly blotches and the red,
tlisfguring pitnples.

HOUSE BILL UNAMENDED.
Republican Tariff senators Authorized
Foraker to Try to secure Pas
sage In Senate.

WASHINGTON, March 24.-The Repub-
Jean caucus committee of the senate
authorized Senator Foraker in definite
terms to propose the separation of the
tariff feature from the Porto Ricon gov
srnmental bill and to attempt to pass
The house tariff bill without amend
nent. The program is to vote down all
amendments If possible to do SO, and
pass the bill as it came from the
house without any changes whatever.
The element in the Republican ranks
in the senate favoring free trade with
Porto Rico decided at conference to
oppose any action looking to an early
vote and to ask for further SINE in case
the question should come up.
When the senate adjourned, several
of the members of the Republican eau
Gus committee admitted that no great
progress had been made. They said
there would be no withdrawal from the
determination to press fer an early vote,
and to put the house bill throughout
without amendment. Other members,
however, expressed the opinion & at the
bill might yet be modified SO as 20 meet
the objections of the free trade Republic
cans of the senate. They admitted that
the represer tatiyes of the house had told
them there was great danger in altering
the house measure i'll any respect.
One member Of the committee stated
that it was the purpose of the committee
to ask every day that d time be set for
taking vote, thus placing the response
bility for any delay that might occur
upon the free traders.

WASHINGTON, March 24.-During the
examination of Governor Steunenberg,
before the Idaho strike investigating
committee. he maintained that there
was no declaration that the writ of
habeas corpus was suspended. He
stated that while he did not repudiate
the action the attorney general took i'll
pleading that the writ was suspended,
that officer acted on his own response
bility on law pleadings. The governor
said his attitude as to the military was
that of commander-in-ch of the mill
tary forces in the state.
When asked how much longer he in
tended to continue the military control
he said it would be continued until
there was full assurance that order was
restored and all rights secured from vio-
lence.

Nothing In Recommendations
In the Island.
New YORK, March 24.-James Jeffrey
Roche, editor of the Boston Pilot, was
passenger aboard the United States
transport Mcclellan, which reached
port from San Juan, Porto Rico, and
Santiago de Cuba. Mr.. Roche spent
three weeks on the island of Porto Rico,
observing the people and their condi-
ton. From his experience while there,
Mr.. Roche said that he was compelled
to confess 1.-The United States is IL the
ungracious position of having deprived
the islanders of their foreign trade and
given them nothing in place of it.
He said in part
The island is over populated and as the doe
trine of Nautilus has never taken root there
further crowding is inevitable There is great
deal Of poverty there, due to the results of the
hurricane last August and the want of work at
present. The people are in a distressing state
of suspense, which prevents all trade until the
tariff question is settled.
The military government is well admins
tered for the most part and under any condi-
tions is likely to remain necessity for some
time to come.
The Porto Ricons are not fit for full indie
pendence. Tae result of Span's misgov-
eminent is apparent everywhere. 1t is the
origin or all the evils IN the island, ignorance,
poverty and whatever lawlessness there may
be. Porto LEO is no place for Americans to go
with u view TO occupation, manual or other
wise. Labor is too cheap. Unless all testi-
mony be untrue, i is no place either for our
smarter politicians, for the native can beat
them in every phase of the game.
