SKIN DISEASES
HUMORS in THE BLOOD

Nature has made ample provision
in the moisture and sunshine VI the
air for the outward protection and
healthy condition of the skin. But
the more important work of nourish-
ing the cuticle has been left to an i'm,
ward source-the blood. 1t is from
the circulation that the pores and
glands receive their stimulus, and
the fibrous tissues are all preserved
in a healthful state because OF con~
slant nutrinent supplied by the blood.
1t is only when the circulation be-
comes infected with humors or acids
that we are troubled with skin affec-
tions. The humoTs producing these
troubles are carried through the cir
culation direct to the skin, and their
irritating or infammatory effect re-
mains until the blood is clcansed.
S. S. S. cures SKIN Diseases, because
it is tile greatest Of all blood purifiers.

AN APOSTLE OF
CONSERVATISM.
Why Bankers Liked an Exam
iner's Methods.

When Charles A. Hanna makes a
statement you may be certain that it
will Withstand assault by hammer, file
and acid, says the New York CORE
spondent of the Cincinnati Times-Star.
He is the most conservative man in
New York, and that is fairly broad
statement OF fact Not long ago he
was named as auditor for the New
York Clearing House association, large
" because of that popularity Of his.
We know said a banker that when
Hanna goes out TO examine d bank
he will make no statement whatever
until that statement is justified. And
whatever statement he makes will
stand without the dottiHg of an i or
the crossing Of t.
Some years ago Hanna was named
by the United States government as
the receiver for the two big banks
that Charles w Morse ruined here
Part Of his duty was to give out to the
press each day a statement of the
days findings He was the most eau
tious man ever knew said one of
the men on the job HE made me
think of old Uncle Eph Haskins. who
held the belt for conservatism in the
