All skin troubles should be attacked
from within by giving the blood cir
culauon a good daily bath. This is
accomplished with S. S. S., the best
hhoWn and most highly recommended
blood purifier ever discovered. It's
action is very rapid. Its vegetable
nature is such that it naturally goes
rlght into the blood saturates the
entire circulation, bathes the tissues
with an influence that enables the
SKIN to heal quickly. The action of
5. 5. S. is that of an antidote, and
TINS fact has been demonstrated time
ana time again in the most severe
forms of weeping eczema.
It's influence in the tissues where
the tiny arteries transfer the red

constantly with every tick of the
clock-the beat of the heart
And new skin is thus caused to form
while the germs of irritating infu-
ences that cause eczema are scattered
and their harmful nature entirely sus-
pended
IS. S. S. has wonderful tonic in
huence in the blood because it con-
tains no dope" is not ''physic," is
entirely free of any mineral drugs or
any other drugs except the remark
able medicinal effect of the pure vege-
table products of which it is made.
Few people realize how harmful are
many of the strong, crude ointments
that used to be in favor before they
learned that s. S. s. is safe, speedy
and sure Ask at any drug store for
a bottle of s. S. S. Give it a good
trial and you will soon see a decided
improvement in any form of skin
trouble. Write to The Swift Specific
Co, 1877 Swift Bldg, Atlanta, Ga, for
special free advice on eczema and any
other form of skin or blood trouble.

1t is a remarkable fact, however,
that the feeling regarding the number
10 is so strong in this country that the
London county council has actually
given way to the superstition AT al
formal meeting a short time ago it,
was recommended that No 10, Stan

remembered No. ID, and although the
superstition was ridiculed, and it was
pointed out that here were 10 letters
in Stanhope place, and 10 letters in
the name of the chairman of the CO.
nittee, the REMEMBERING proposal was
carried.
Neither is this the only instance ot

cases in the West End houses pre-
viously numbered IS have been re-
numbered 12A. For some time, of
course, many Of the larger hotels ana

to have no number 10 on their bed

this superstition has frequently lei
to the Intervention of the Borough
Councils, who have been called upon
to see that the original numbers were
restored, owing to the confusion which
arose.
Many eminent persons, however,
have believed that 10 is always pro-
ductiye of bad luck. Queen Victoria
once refused to sit down 10 at table.
King Edward was similarly supersti-
tious
Mr.. Parnell was very superstitious
about the number 13 and on the eve If
an election in 1883 he refused to sleep
in an hotel bedroom numbered 10, Mr..
Healey changing with him. When the
home-rule bill was originally intro
duced it was put down for March 3D.
and the session was to begin on Feb
ruary 10. There were, however, 80
many murmurs that for the first time
in 100 years the date of the assembl-
ing of Parliament was changed and
the House met on February Ia.
Apropos of the superstition which
exists regarding 10 sitting down at a
table, an interesting case occurs in tn :
biography of Sir John Everett Millas s,
who Unexpectedly one day found him
self with twelve guests at his table,
one of them being Matthew Arnold.
TO soothe the perturbed feelings of a
lady, who declared she could not sit
at a "13" table, the artist persuaded
one of his sons to take his meal in an
other room. That son returned to the
room at the end of the dinner to hear
Arnold say: THE idea is what who
ever leaves the table will die within
the year, so, with the permission of
the ladies, we will cheat the fates for
once. l and these fine strong lads,
pointing to two of his fellow guests,
will all rise together and | think
our united constitutions will be able
to stand the assault of the reaper
Six months later Arnold, apparently
in the best of health, died suddenly of
heart disease; the second of the three
came to a mysterious end in New
York, being found shot through the
head, while the third, making voyage

gia this Year

Athens, April 29-Reports receiv-
ed from farm demonstration agents in
81 counties of Georgia, received at the
State College of Agriculture, the
headquarters of the state government
work, reveal that a greater acreage
has been planted to corn and less 70
cotton in Georgia this year
Small grain continues promising, al
though rust is reported to be serious
ly felt in some few counties. The
good weather prevailing during April
has made the planting season for the
greater part of the state ideal, admit
ting of well prepared seed beds. The
hard condition of the soil after the
heavy spring rains had turned many
farmers attention to planting winter
cover crops and getting into the soil
more vegetable matter. Many interest
ing reports of farmers taking up the
growing of legumes, especially peas
to follow the oat crop and velvet
beans between corn rows have been
received.
