IS the time TO get the poison out of your
system, as delay makes your condition
worse. Don't experiment longer with
salves, washes and soaps-they never cure.
Mr s. NJ Marshall, bookkeeper Of the Atlanta

Oak. He took Sulphur, Arsenic and various
other drugs, and applied externally numerous
lotions and salycs with no benefit At times the
swelling and Inflammation was 50 severe he was
almost blind. Fer eight years the poison would
break out every season His condition was much
improved after taking one bottle Of S. 5. S, and
few bottles cleared his blood of the poison and
all evidences of the disease disappeared.
People are often poisoned without
knowing when or how. Explain your case
fully to our physicians, and they will
cheerful1y give such information and ad-
vice as you require, without charge, and
we will send at the same time an interest

Hanits aud General Characterlstios NJ
the Flying Squirrels.
IL there is four-footed animal in
the New England woods which is en-
Titled to the name of gentleman" in
the oest sense Of the term that animal
Is tne ny1ng squirrel. Though the
Sihailest member Of his family here
apouts, as woodsman he Is without
superior. OF course when it comes to
Tree cnmbing and travelling through
tne tops Of closely grown trees the
gray squirrel is simply magnificent.
But In the open woods, where
tne trees stand further apart. the
nylng squirrel has decided ad-
vantage, for he can Just sail
through the air from one tree trunk to
another. His appearance is in keep
Ing with his character. The soft, vel
Vety fur of his upper parts is of an
lhconsplcuous shade of gray and the
under parts are white. The black eyes
are very large and prominent. the
Whlskers dark and long, and the gen.
eral expression Of the face good natur-
gu, Dut earnest. The claws are much
curved and as sharp as fishhooks. But
the most peculiar parts of his anatomy
are the membranes by which he is en-
apled to make his long distance flights,
or rather sails (for flying squirrels do
not really fly through the air. These
membranes, one on each side of the
body, extend from the wrist of the
forefoot to the wrist of the hind foot.
and are formed by the extension of the
skin OF both the upper and lower parts.
consequently, though quite thin, they
are OF double thickness. They are COW
cred with short fur both above and be-
low. When not in use these men,
branes are inconspicuous, for. being
elastic, they contract, forming an ir-
regular ridge along each side. When
the squirrel wishes to fly" he springs
into the air from the upper part of a
tree, and by spreading his legs as wide
as he can, stretches the membranes
taut, like the covering of an open UNI
brella. On this natural parachute he
is able to sail for a considerable dis
tance, but always from high point to
a lower one. His tail also is well adapt
ed to this mode of travelling, for, in
stead of being bushy, like those of
other squirrels, it is fiat, like feather.
Some flying squirrels build nests of
leaves in the treetops, but most OF
them live in holes in the trunks and
branches. The last years nest Of a
downy woodpecker makes an ideal
home for flying squirrel, and if the
tree happens to stand in a swamp it is
not likely to remain long without a
tenant.

semlnates Disease.
DR.. Hermann Koeniger, a German
scientist, has for some time been try
ing to find out what becomes of the
germs that are released when per-
son speaks, coughs and sneezes, and
from the conclusions at which he has
arrived M. Henri de Barville, a French
scientist, feels justified in claiming
that person may by simply sneezing
commit homicide, according to the st.
Louis Star. 'Dr. Koeniger," he says
has clearly proved that person who
speaks, coughs and sneezes in room
in which there is no appreciable cur
rent of air disseminates germs to a
distance of more than seven meters,
and that these germs are carried in all
directions, and even to a height OF
more than two meters. AS few persons
talk alike, the germs disseminated by
speech vary greatly, some of them re-
naming in suspension for an hour,
and others only for quarter of an
hour, the latter being especially

slight current of air. On the other
hand, germs are very quickly dis
seminated by coughing and sneez'
ing, and the smaller the mi
crobes are the further they are likely
to spread Among such tiny microbes
are those of influenza and the plague,
whereas among the larger ones are
those of tuberculosis and diphtheria.
Evidently, therefore, the danger is
greatest whenever there is the greatest
number of microbes within persons
mouth. In view of DR.. Koeniger's dis
covery it will be well for every one to
keep as far away as possible from per-
sons who cough and sneeze."

Hon. David Meekison is we'll known,
not only in his own State, but through
out America. He began his political
career by serving four consecutive
terms as Mayor of the town in which
he lives, during which time he became
widely known as the founder of the
Meekison Bank of Napoleon, Ohio. He
was elected to the Fifty-f1fth Congress
by a very large majority, and is the
acknowledged leader Of his party in his
section of the State.
Only one flaw marred the otherwise
complete success of this rising states
man. Catarrh with its insidious ap-
proach and tenacious grasp, was his
only unconquered foe For thirty
years he waged unsuccessful warfare
against this personal enemy. At last
Pe-ru-na came to the rescue, and he
dictated the following letter to DR..
Hartman as the result:
II have used several bottles Of Pc
ru-na and feel greatly benefited there
by from my catarrh of the head. 1 feel
encouraged to believe that II l use 1t
a short time longer I will be able to
fully eradicate the disease Of thirty
years standing. Yours truly,
David Meekison."
Many people can tolerate slight ca
tarrhal affections. A little hoarseness,
a slight cough, cold in the head, or
trifling arrangement of the digestive
organs, do not much disturb the aver
