A DANGEROUS ULCER.

had large sore or ulcer on my face and nothing
I tried would benefit me. 1t began with shooting
pains and soon the itching was terrible. At first 1t
discharged a watery fluid which soon changed to
one of thicker composition and the pain became
very severe. 1t was nearly as large as dollar and
terribly inflained in all the surrounding parts. 1t
had been there so long and growing worse all the
time, Itecane very much discouraged and alarmed.
At last began the use of S. S. s.. At first the
ulcer seemed to get worse, but soon found that the
poison was being removed from the blood and con-
tinued to take S. S. S. IT was not long before
noted decided improvement and kept up the use
of the medicine until was entirely cured of this
cancerous ulcer. This has beer some time ago and
there is no sign of return of the trouble.

ADEVRTISING:


Referring to attached letter from Mr.
NJ. L. Bixler, manager Of the Hat
tiesburg News, relative to the specia!
advertising edition of his paper for
Northern distribution, will advise that
| have had several interviews with this
gentleman along these lines, and out
lined to him the plan incorporated in
attached letter to you, of 18th inst.
explained to him, and I recall MAX
ing the same statement in one of my
letters to you of recent date, that I
would not give my approval to any
advertising scheme that was not prop
erly featured and its distribution guar
anteed in a section where results
would be assured; it has been my ex-
perience along these lines that matters
of this kind were too local to have
the desired effect, and the most i'm
portant part of it, its distribution,
were entirely overlooked.
I believe that the plan submitted by
Mr.. Bixler, if carried out as he ex-
plains will be fruitful Mr.. Lawrence,
or myself, could make the trip as out
lined by Mr.. Bixler, and in addition
to the special edition referred to,
could distribute other matter advertis"
ing our lines, as well, |
Yours truly,
(Signed' H. H. BOLTON,
immigration Agent.
