TRIPLETS COME HIGH.
Fond Parent mt Chicago Thinks 500
Not Too Much for Them when lis
Employer Offers $50 for Twins,

When Alderman Tom Carey, of Chi
cago, told the workmen in his brick
yard that he would give substantial
rewards to srch of his employees as
could increase his constituency
through the birth of twins or triplets
he did not expect to be taken up
right away.
William Roach, who lives at 5404
Marshfield avenue, reported triplets
to the office and now he is waiting
for the alderman to come forward
with a check for 500, for that was
the sum he is said to have offered.
Twins were not rated so high, the
prize for them beins $50.
''They are well worth the money"
was the comment of the proud ia
Their the other evening, as he rolled
back the covers to the big soap box
which had been improvised for a
cradle. "Their combined weight is 23
pounds, and they are all as hand
some and well as can be. God has
been good to MS, am sure, and the
alderman's check will help pay the
doctor and the nurse"
The advent of triplets caused a
wave of excitement over the neigh
borhood. The house was filed with
visitors, and congratulations We're
lavished on the parents. Roach took
a day off from his work in Alderman
Carey's brickyard to receive the Wis
itors, while his wife Mary voiced her
pride to the women.
Roach was considering the plan of
naming them after Alderman aCrey.
Two are boys and the third girl,
the latter being the heaviest. He
thought of calling one boy Thomas
and the other Carey, but the naming
of the girl worried him when he went
to bed the other evening All the
babies are well developed and the
nurse said they gave promise of be-
ing strong and healthy children.

Sufferers from this horrible malady
yearly always inherit it-not necessarily
from the parents, but may be from some
remote ancestor, for Cancer often runs
through several generations. This deadly
poison may lay dormant in the blood for
years, or until you reach middle life, then
the first little sore or ulcer makes its APP
pearance or a swollen gland in the
breast, or some other part of the body,
gives the first warning.
To cure Cancer thoroughly and perma.
nently all the poisonous virus must be
eliminated from the blood-everJ vestage
Of it driven out This S. S. S. does, and
is the only medicine that can reach deep
seated, obstinate blood troubles like this.

A very estimable woman of Milwaukee is
an earnest member of a local German class,
but her method of pronouncing some OF the
words, at least in one specific instance,
aroused the mirth of her companions. AT
a recent meeting of the class, one of the
questions in the days exercise was: care
you not glad that you are able to learn Ger
man.
This query was in the foreign language,
and the answer was: ga; gewiSs,' mean
ing: eyes, certainly"
1t so happened that this particular woman
was called up to read the question and
answer. She got through the question all
right, but convulsed the class by reading the
answer this way:
