preclated the fact That although great
lush of tobacco had gone on the Baltl
more market during the past month til,
prices were FULLY maintained, something
which is almost unprecedented.
Capt. Sylvester spoke of the work be

were taking to find out what was being
paid for our tobacco in Europe, and the
cost of getting it there.
DIR. Hill explained the duties of his pc

the position being under the Control OF
the Trustees of the Maryland Agricultural
College, established under an act of the
last Legislature, Chapter 81. The sun

appropriated from the Tobacco Fund
for this work This fund of over $3.50,
600 was accumulated entirely from the
tobacco farmers, and not one dollar came
from the general taxes, for every cent ad
Vanced by the State mas Deen returned
and in addition to this sum there are the
three warehouses and the wharf property
in Baltimore City. Consequently the

Keep your blood clean as you keep your
body clean. You don't wait until your
body is foul before you cleanse it.
1t is matter of surprise that many PEG
pie who are so careful to have clean bodies
make no effort to keep the blood clean.
Everyone knows that uncleanness breeds
disease that those who do not keep their
bodies in wholesome condition and who
dwell in filthy surroundings are the first to
FALL when some epidemic of disease sweeps
the country. But foul blood Is more dam
gerous to the individual than a foul body.
An unclean body is rather a passive than
an active hindrance to health. But uncleau
blood is an active threat against the very
life-it makes the body prepared breed
ing place for disease.
1t is part of Natures plan for human
safety that in many cases where the blood
is impure or corrupt she sets sign on the
body in proof of the corrupt current that 10
flowing through the veins Scrofula with
its disfguring sores and scars, eczema with
its irritation, salt-rheum, letter. erysipelas,
boils, pimples and other eruptions are only
the outward signs of the impurity of the
blood. But often in the earlier or simpler
stages of the blood's impurity there are no
outward signs of this condition; only dull,
languid, sluggish feelings, which are COM
monty attributed solely to the aluggishuesa
of the liver.
OF all preparations for purifying the
blood Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov-
cry easily takes the first place. It elimin-
ates from the blood the elements which
clog and corrupt it, and which breed and
feed disease. It acts directly or the blood
making glands, increasing their activity
and so increasing the supply of rich, pure
blood which Is the life of the body.
Accept no substitute for "Golden Med
ical Discovery" There is nothing "just
as good" for diseases of the stomach,
blood and lunga.
DR.. Pierce's Medical Adviser, paper GOV.
ers, is sent free on receipt of 81 one-cent
stamps to pay expense of mailing only.
