FoISSiOR[)E I

In the fall of 1895 Icontracted that fear.
full disease, Blood Poison. 1t gained such
headway that was forced to resign my
position and seek relief at Hot Springs.
After spending all the means had went
to Memphis. In less than three weeks /
was in hospital, and after nine weeks Of
suffering / was discharged as cured. In
less than month every bone in my body
seemed to be affected and felt as If they
would break at the least exertion. Again
was compelled to resign, and I returned
to the hospital for a seven weeks stay.
When I came out was advised to try
farming. When first went on the farm
prevailed on the only firm who handled
drugs to get me one dozen bottles OF S. S.
S. At that time both of my hands were
broken out with blisters and was covered
with boils and sores. In the meantime my
druggist had gotten two dozen bottles OF
s. S. S. for me and began its use, and
after taking the thirteenth bottle not Q

years old, may be saved. They are
members of the freshman class of the

who lives sixty miles from Beaver, in
Oklahoma. The child recently fell
Into a kettle of boiling soap and one
arm was badly burned. The boy was
brought to Kansas City, where the
doctor declared skin-grafting neces-

Presidents Greeting to Old Friend.
When the Washington's birthday

Roosevelt was leaving the stage at
the side of Provost Harrison, fol-

guests with stately mien and solemn
air, each profoundly impressed with
the dignity of the occasion The
president suddenly espied Prof. Gam

modestly ensconced behind one Of the
wings. Breaking away from the aston

up to the professor with the exclama-
ton: Hello, old boy. By Jove, I'm
glad to see you'll" and gave him a
handgrasp which made him vince
with pain. He then returned to the
side of the provost and the process

Settling the War on Clutches.

In an article in the Worlds Work on
the betterment work of the Colorado
Fuel and Iron Co. is funny story Of
the hatred between the Japanese and
the Russians in the company's hospital
at Minnequa. The writer says: The
Russians and Japanese are as hostile
Individually in Colorado as in Man
churia. Even on the hospital lawn,
convalescent Russian and Japanese
patients have hurled crutches and
canes at one another; and on the
school rounds, children have fought
with fists and stones. The manage
ment had to make the wards in the
hospital small, SO that subjects Of the
Mikado and of the Gear could not
glare at one another from beds on
opposite sides of the same room, and
to arrange the camps SO that each
race or nationality could live by itself.

COMMERCIAL REVIEW.

R. G. Dun & Co.'s Weekly Trade Re
view" says:
Good news still predominates in trade
and industry. Easter business is OF
large volume; dry goods, clothing, foot
wear and all lines of wearing apparel
reporting an unusually good demand,
and shipping departments are taxed to
their full capacity in many cases. The
country as a whole is experiencing more
settled weather, which is reflected in
better retail distribution of merchandise.
Jobbing trade in goods for Fall de-
livery is broadening, and there is more
inclination to prepare for the future,
Manufacturers report less idle machinery,
the iron and steel industry leading with
an unprecedented output of pig iron,
yet consumption is also above all records,
for there is no accumulation at the
furnaces.
A few labor controversies are threaten
ed, bu none are of sufficient magni-
Jude to materially check progress, even
if expected settlements are not attained,
for the number of hands involved is
comparatively small.
Reports are somewhat conflicting as to
mercantile collections, but improvement
should follow the liberal distribution OF
funds in starting agricultural work,
Treasury shipments of small change to
the interior largely exceeding the amount
in transit year ago.
Car blockades are few, owing to the
favorable weather, although traffic is
very heavy, as shown by railway sarn-
ings for the first week of April, 100 per
cent larger than last year.
Failures this week numbered 2I4 in
the United States, against 225 last year,
and 20 in Canada, compared with I6 a
year ago

Justice to Iheater Owners.

DR.. Darlington, commissioner Of the
New York board Of health, makes the
interesting suggestion that If the own
ers of the ten theaters in that city
which Chief Croker says ought to be
rebuilt were driven to that trifiing ex-
pense the city would in justice have
to reimburse them for the $4,000 or
$40 900 each which they have spent
since that time last year on improve
ments and alterations ordered by the
board of health for the ostensible pur-
pose of making the houses safe.
There are no quasi public buildings in
New York upon which so much
money has been spent as on the thea
ters.

For Systematic scientific Research

Prof. Pearson, the English scientist,

Of Prof. Simon Newcomb looking to
the systematization of scientific re-
search by organizing investigators into
what might be termed battalions. DR..
Pearson says that what science needs
at present is to get rid of most of its
data and investigators with brains
enough to interpret what is left. "At
least so per cent of the observations
made and the data collected" says
Prof. Pearson. lis worthless, and no
man, however able, could deduce any
result from them at all. In engineers
language, we need to 'scrap-heap'
about so per cent Of the products Of
nineteenth century science"
