PimpIes
Cannot Live
When the Blood Is Purified With
Stuart's Calcium Waters
Trial Package Sent Free

Pimples, blOtches, eruptions, etc,
simply disappear like magic when you
shut off the supply Of impurities which
cause them.
Stuart's Calcium Waters go into the
blood through the same channel as
1000. They stimulate and nourish it.
they destroy foreign and unnatural
bodies found there and remove all i'm
purities very quickly.
In many cases pimples and erup-
tons disappear from the skin in five
days
These little waters are so strong that
hmm ediately after they go into the
blood their beneficial effects make
themselves known. The blood is
cleansed rapidly and thoroughly, the
impure is separated from the pure
blood and the waste matter and poi
sons are carried from the system.
The person who suffers the humili-
atom Of pimples, bIotches and erup-
lions should know and feel that the
blood is in bad condition and delay is
quite dangerous, and is liable to affect
many organs quite seriously.
Purify your blood and you give ma
ture the means to successfully fight
all manner of disease. Calcium Sui
phide is one of the ingredients from
which Stuart's Calcium Waters are
made, and it is the strongest and most
powerful blood invigorator known to
science. This wonderful purifier is
endorsed by the entire medical pro-
fession and is generally used in all
doctors prescriptions for the blood
and skin.
Stuart's Calcium Waters peculiarly
preserve the strength. of Calcium Sui
phide better than other methods
thus giving the most rapid cures ow-
ing to the purity of the ingredients
and their freedom from decay, evap-
Grafton and chemical weakness caused
by many latter day modes of prepara-
ton. Stuart's Calcium Waters are
sold by every druggist. Price so, or

we will send you a trial package by

Taft wanted Lorimer Taft says he
never said so. He says Aldrich told
him Taft wanted Lorimer Aldrich

Hines says Boutell, 1T present minister
to Switzerland, wanted Lorimer and
wrote an unsigned note to Hines,
stating that he. Boutell, went to
the president and brought away the
goods.
Without much doubt Hines is lying
good deal. but without any doubt
Hines is not the only liar in the bunch
1t would not be astonishing or UMPIRE
cedented if Bourell had written the
note which Hines produces 1t would
not be astonishing If the truth could
be known that Aldrich was for Lorimer
ana gave Hines his encouragement
Moreover 1t would not pass the last
limit of credibility if both the men re-
ferred to had told Hines that the pres
ident was anxious to see Lorimer elect
ed. And going further it is to be re-
membered that Senator Aldrich was at
that time so close to the president that
others had to ruIl around or jump over
hailing distance. If A!drich told Hines
what Hines says he did and Boutell
wrote what Hines says he wrote, Hines
certainly was justified i'll believing
them. But the president says he wasn't
in favor Of Lorimer and that settles it
so far as the president is concerned
He wasn't.
