HOW TO TREAT
OLD SORES

The proper wGy-the only sue
cessful wGy- to treat an old sore
IS to destroy its source. Not BY
dangerous surgical operations or
irritating, :" "drawing" pIasters, but
BY Natures true method of purify
ing the blood and filling the circu-
lation with rich, nourishing proper
fies; then the cure will be natural
and lasting. We can easily UNDER
stand how impurities in the blood
wilI infect some weak point on our
bodies, and BY continually dis
charging impurities into it keep the
place open and inAamed until a
chronic ulcer is formed. Nothing
then is so sure to produce a cure
of these old sores as S. S. S. This
medicine is Natures perfect blood
remedy, composed Of the most heal
ing and at the same time the most
penetrating and blood-puifyisg
properties. 1t remoues every par
ticle of impurity or morbid matter
from the circulation, and assists
nature in the increasing of healthful,
nutritious corpuscles in the blood.
S. S. S. makes pure blood. and pure
blood is Natures unfailing cure for
old sores. Every sufferer with an old
sore should use S. S. S., because it
is the remedy they most need. Book

and the 'insurrecto" republicans ight-
ing it. Senator Martin, democrat Of
Virginia, upon the urgent solicitation
of Penrose and other senators, sent
for Flood and caused him to stop his
fighting of the resolution, saying that
they proposed to pass it in the senate
first and that he must then pass Il in
the house. 1t was only upon this urg-
ent solicitation of Senator Martin
that Flood yielded. But the patriots,
nor Flood, tell this to the people Of
New Mexico. If they did they could
not claim all the credit of passing the
statehood bill. But it is well to keep
the absolute facts of history correct.
Is it not just terrible that those per-
sons that worked so hard to defeat
statehood; and did delay it till Texas
was enabled to grab millions of dol
lars of land from New Mexico; now
have the cheek and gall to ask the
votes of the people they slandered to
elevate them to high positions in the
future great state; soon to be one Of
the proudest in the galaxy Of states.
But if those persons had their way 4
would be territory for years to
come. But it appears that consist
ency and decency are cast to the
winds. The very vital question com
ing in December and January is. Will
the senators and representatives OF
New Mexico vote for free wool or pro
lection? Voters, decide right at the
coming election!

Washington. Nov. s.-The patient,
long suffering people of New Mexico
remember that after so years of per
sistent effort and after expanding
many thousands of dollars to refute
by kilograms the base slanders of
Jones. Ferguson, McGia, Hand. ct

ballot box stuffing; the statehood bill

gress by unanimous vote, was report-
ed favorably and would have passed

ued his filibuster from 1880 March
3, till II a. m. March 4, thus defeat
ing the bill for that congress.
The Andrews resolution No. and
the Flood resolution, No. ID. each the
same simply approving the constitu-
tions of the two territories and en-
dorsed by the democratic caucus,
would have passed the house and SEN
ato the second week of the Sixty-sec-
ond congress but the same four pa
triots, with the addition of Mr.. Burk-
hart, repeated their slanders, causing
a months delay. Had the resolution
passed at once Texas would not nave
been able to grab millions of acres Of
land from New Mexico; but by the de-
lay caused by these persons Texas
rushed in, demanded millions of acres
of land or would block statehood. The
Z concession had to be made; thus they
caused the loss of millions of dol
4 lars of land to New Mexico. They
should hide their heads in very shame
rather than ask the support of the
people they slandered; or should be
buried under 10000 or more majority.
These patriots, nor Flood tell that he
and five other democrats spoke in the
house committee to pass the Flood
resolution in the house and senate;
knowing the attempt meant defeat to
statehood. Only after repeated de-
mands by Young, republican, for a
vote on his motion for committee
to meet a senate committee for com.
promise bill, Flood feeling certain
he had eight democrats to five repub-
licans ordered the clerk to call the
roll, with this result: Ayes, Draper,

take; there must be a misunderstanf
ing and refused to announce the vote.
Young demanded the roll called
again, which gave the same result.
The six democrats in violent speeches
reserved the right to fight statehood
on the floor of the house. Martin,
democrat Of Colorado, made vicious,
violent speech in the house against
the compromise resolution casting re-

almost without break. But the his
tory Of beautiful jewels is often one
of mystery. deathbed robbery and
criminal attacks; and probably If the
inner history OF many OF Mr.. Nor
gan's jewels could be told we should
have a varied and lurid contribution
to the history OF crime Revolutions
have more especially contributed to
the disappearance OF beautiful jewels,
which are so easily stolen, SO success
fully hidden and. after lapse Of
years. so difficult to identify.
But none of these things explains
the presence in Mr.. Morgan's collec-
tion of the fine green jade cup, rich
ly mounted in gold work and decor
ated with enamels, probably the work
Of Pacobo da frezzo, which was at
one time in the collection of the En-
press Frederick. and German connoi-
seurs will hardly reconcile themselves
to the loss to be assured that there
are similar cups at Dresden and Mum
ich
But of the many royal and imperial
collections which have contributed to
the formation of that of Mr.. Morgan
perhaps the most romantic story is
told in relation to the Golden Chain of
of Honor of Christian II of Saxony.
This chain is composed of 80 pierced
ovals of open scroll work decorated
with enamels, with the electoral arms
and a white "C". 1t was worn by
the elector and is seen in the portrait
of him in the Green Vaults at Dres-
den.
This chain passed into the posses
sion of Henry of Guntherod (who
died in 1910, and was buried with
him in the Sophien church in Dres-
den. In 1740 the grave was opened,
the chain taken and deposited in the
Green Vaults, the treasures of which
in 1906, were removed to prevent
their falling into the hands of the
enemy. When the danger was over
most of the treasures were returned,
but this chain was "lost" and re-
manned so for nearly a century. It
turned up at a public sale in Dresden
on June 81, 1898. Herr Guttmann of
Berlin few years ago sold it to Mr.,
Morgan. 1t is believed to be the work
of Michael Botza, the celebrated Dres-
den goldsmith and dates from 1000.
Badges and Orders
The numerous badges of various or
ders include one of the Order Of the
Annunziata in enamelled gold. The
knights of this order took a solemn
vow that they would not wear it's in
sigma with that of any other order.
There are several badges of the Or
der of St. Michel.
OF the many and beautiful
pendant jewels" one of the most not
able is that composed of wrought
gold, enamel and ambergris, hitherto
thought to be wax. The value of a
large piece of ambergris such as this
in the sixteenth century would have
been very great, and the jewel could
have been made for a person of great
wealth; it's peculiar perfume never
seems to leave the material; the cen.
tire piece of this jewel is small group
of a woman and three children. II
originally belonged to the Wenckc
collection at Hamburg, and was &C
quired at the Spitzer sale in Paris il
1898.
Another little romance is enshrinet
in the pendant jewel composed O

made for the Duke of Lerma, promin
