MUST PAY FOR BERTHs.
western Roads VIII Make New Pull
man Reservation Rule.

Western Roads VIII Make New Pull
man Reservation Rule.
Chicago, Jan. 3o.-Travelers may be
forced to pay for Pullman berths they
have reserved, but which they do not
use, If a new rule on berth reservation
is adopted by western roads. The sub
ject was considered at a Tneetin of the
heads of the passenger traffic depart
n1ents of the roads and definite action
on it postponed only because new Pull
man rates go into effect February 1.
The plan is to insist on full prepay
ment for berths at time of reservation.
Now the berths can be reserved by a
tel ,phone call to the railroad office.
This privilege has been abused, railroad
men say, by persons who have changed
their minds at the last minute about
taking the trip planned and who have
not notified the railroad, allowing the
reserved berth to be unoccupied- The
money loss has resulted in the con-
sideration Of the new rule by which
prepayment must be made or chances
be run of getting a berth when taking
the train.

BLOOD TROUBLES
CONSTITUTIONAL INFECTION

Constitutional Blood Poison is the
most insidious of all diseases. 1t
begins in an insignificant manner,
usually the appearance of tiny sore
being the only outward evidence of its
presence. But down in the blood the
treacherous infection is at work, and
in short time its chain of symptoms
begin to crop out. The mouth and
throat u1cerate, skin eruptions break
out, sores and ulcers appear on the
body, the glands in the groin swell,
and sometimes the hair comes out.
Mineral medicines cannot cure Con-
stitutiona1 Blood Poison; they only
shut the disease up in the system to
shoulder and await an opportunity of
breaking out afresh. The only pos
sible way to cure the disease is to
REMOVE the germs from the blood.
S. S. S. goes into the blood, and while
removing the infection makes the
blood pure, fresh and healthy. This
