Sufferers from Ills horrible malady
nearly always inherit it not necessarily
from the parents, but may be from some
reuota 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 OF ulcer makes its APP
pearahce --o " q swollen gland in the
b--4st, or some other part Of the body,
gives the first warning.
To cure Cancer thoroughly and perrla-
ncudy all TIE poisonous virus must be
eliminated from the blood-every vestage
Of It driven out This S. S. S. does. and
6 the only medicine that can reach deep
seated, obstinate blood troubles like this.
When all the poison has been forced out
of the system the Cancer heals, and the
disease never returns.
Cancer begins often in small way, as the
following le' ter from Mrs. Shirer shows
: small pim1le came or my jaw about inch

"The pitcher that goes often to the
well is broken at last" There's world
of wisdom in that familiar proverb, and
a sound application of it to disease,
especially to such familiar forms of dis

enough the very thing that ought to
cause alarm is given as excuse for a feel

IRON AND IRONWORKERS.
Charles schwnb's English Interview
ON English and American Affairs.

Mr.. Charles Schwab, president of the
steel trust, who is now In Europe, re
iteratcs his opinion that the English
steel trade has declined because OF
trades unionism.
"The attitude of your labor In Eng
land" he said to reporter of the Lon
don Mail, "will never permit you 70
run your mills and factories as we do
in America. You will be surprised
when l tell you that II careful survey
of the whole field would seem to show
these facts: That the English laborer
receives on an average less than one
half of what the American receives,
year in and year out; that. notwith.
standing that fact the costs have been
nearly double, solely by reason of the
attitude of the comblnation-the trust
of labor-that predominates in Eng
land"
The steel trust is, Mr.. Schwab says
going TO adopt n new departure in its
attitude toward labor.
"lt is the intention of the United
States steel organization" he says, $50

branch of business. even department

percentage of the profits, which will

can come as near making man a
partner in that direction as in any 9th
er way that has yet been devised, and
commencing with the first OF the year

OF our great departments on that
basis"
