5CROFULA HEREDITARY BLOOD POISON

Scrofula is a disease manifested usually by swelling and alteration of the glands, especially about the neck. It is almost entirely hereditary in its origin, being the dregs or re- mains of some specific blood poison. Where the blood is greatly weakened with the scrofulous poison, the disease attacks other portions of the system besides the glands, and then we see its effects in weak eyes, poorly developed bodies, running sores and ulcers, skin diseases, especially on the scalp, ca tarrhal troubles, etc. Scrofula usually makes Its appearance in childhood. though manhood or womanhood nav be reached before the poison pro- gresses to the stage of outward mani iestation. s. s. s. is the one real cure for Scrofula. It is a blood purifier without an equal, and it cures this destructive blood poison by removing every trace of the infection from the circulation. S. S., in addition to

Al. RA|NEE:S IS
The CHAMPION
Beats Ljungsnom by Four Feet in
Ten Mile Running Race in Audi
forum Last Night.
52:26; AMATEURS RUN

Sensational was the sprint that
gained victory for Al. Raines, of this
city, in a ten-mile race in the Audi
forum last night over Gusta Lung
strom, of Sweden, who holds all in
door records for the Marathon dis
lance. The race was a fight to the
finish as Raines was out to avenge
himself for the defeat handed him
by L1ungstrom in Madison Square
Garden, New York, when he crossed
the tape thirty yards in front of the
Amboy runner. By the wonderful
pace set by Raines from the start to
the finish of the race all records for
time In the ten-mile distance in the
Auditorium were broken. Raines
covered the distance in ffty-two
minutes and twenty-six seconds.
From the start of the race to it's
finish Raines was the one who set
the pace, covering the first mile in
five minutes and five seconds. Many
times during the event Ljungstrom
tried his best to lap Raines but to
his surprise found that hts opponent
was there when there was any sprint
ing to be done. Satisfied that he
could not pass him, Ljungstrom from
the third mile ran on the outside of
the track, worrying Raines and try
ing to weaken him. These tactics
were kept up until the ninth mile,
when Ljungstrom again made sever
al futile efforts to pass his competi-
tor. Each time he was repulsed by
Raines, who would sprint at the
right time.
During the last four laps every
one in the Auditorium was standing
up, shouting and encouraging their
favorites as they ran side by side.
The same position was held until the
final lap. Raines( by. a wonderful
burst Of speed crossed the tape about
four feet in front of Liungstrom,
thus regaining his lost laurels from
Ljungstrom.
