Blood Poison Cured.

I, Anthony Nelson, do testify
that my leg all the way up to my
knee was terribly swollen and
black with blood poison. I was
in bed three weeks and could not
sleep night or day, the pain was
so great. I finally used San-Cura
Ointment, which relieved the
pain, drawing out the pus and
poison and putting the leg in a
sound, healthy condition. I feel
safe in recommending San-Cura
Ointment for any sore or pain.

A Prodigal Aspirant.


lie it should be held by public
opinion that William r. Hearst
would not be in ALWAYS an ideal
candidate for President, it cannot
truly be said of him that niggard:
illness is one of those faults which
should condemn him. Mr.. Hearst
is, indeed, a generous aspirant for
Presidential honors. A special
dispatch to the Louisville Courier
Journal, whose editor has an
nounced that he will support Mr..
Hearst, if nominated, says that
GAS things stand there is no par
allel in the history of National
political conventions for the plans
that have been perfected by the
Hearst Presidential bureau.
Hearst has engaged quarters suf-
ficient to house an army. His del
egates and shouters are to be en-
tertained, roomed and fed at his
expense. 1t will not cost any one
who comes to St. Louis to vote or
root for Hearst anything except
his time, so far as can be learn
ed" At the Planters hotel Mr.,
Hearst's advance agents have en-
gagged the eighth, ninth and tenth
floors; there are SO rooms on each
Of these floors, or $50 in all. At
the new Jefferson hotel Mr..
Hearst wanted to engage five en-
tire floors, but. was restricted to
80 rooms. At the Southern hotel,
where the floor space is measured
by acres, he wished to secure an
entire floor, but his request was
denied. The cost of Mr.. Hearst s
campaign, if measured by the
mere rental of rooms at st. Louis,
will be unprecedented. Exclu-
sive of what his delegates and
shouters eat, drink and smoke,
or of bills otherwise incurred, his
hotel account alone will amount
to $4,000 day. Consequently, it
is not surprising to learn that his
prodigality has staggered the
Democratic National committee. "
Though Mr.. Hearst will not be a
successful aspirant for the nomi-
nation, he is certain to be a spec
tacularly attractive and interest
ing one.
