Fine Remedy
For Eczema
Also for Salt Rheun, Tet-
ter, Psoriasis, Lupus,
and All Skin
Affections.

All skin troubles should be attacked
from within by giving the blood circula-
tion a good daily bath. This is accom-
plished with S. S. S., the best known and
most highly recommended blood purifier
ever discovered. Its action is very rapid.
Its vegetable nature is such that 1t nat
urally goes right into the blood, saturates
the entire circulation, bathes the tissues
with an influence that enables the skin
to heal quickly. The action Of S. S. S. is
that Of an antidote, and this fact has
been demonstrated time and time again
in the most severe forms. Of weeping
eczema.
Its influence in the tissues where the
tiny arteries transfer the red blood for
the worn out blood to the veins is quite
remarkable and goes on 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 influences
.hat cause eczema are scattered and their
harmful nature entirely suspended.
S. s. S. has a wonderful tonic influence
In the blood because it contains no
dope" is not physic. is entirely free Of
any mineral drugs or any other drugs
except the remarkable medicinal effect Of
the pure vegetable products of which 1t
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
8. 8. s. Give It good trial and you will
soon see a decided improvement in any
form Of skin trouble. Write to The Swift
Specific Co., 100 Swift Bldg, Atlanta, Ca,
for special free advice on eczema and any
other form of skin or blood trouble.
Do not allow anyone to palm on a cheap
substitute for s. s. s. You will be
grievously disappointed II you do. There
II nothing else 'Just as good" as s. s. s..

Continuous History"

For more than 1000 years Salonica
has had continuous history, though
the city has not always been known by
its present name. 1t was founded and
named by Alexander the Great in the
year Of 315 B. G. 1t is said that
Philip, of Macedon, named his daugh-
ter Thessalonica because of the day he
heard of her birth he won a victory
over the Thessalians. Thus the vic.
tory of Philip and the name of his
daughter, the half-sister of the con-
queror of the world are all embalmed
in the name Of the city.

the three months that these men lave
been working on the roads and Mr..
Edens is of the opinion that the con-
vict labor force will be increased be-
cause OF the good accomplished by
the first experiment in this line.
Cooperation Necessary.
Cooperation with public and govern
ment officials is a necessity as these
men can be OF great assistance and
willingly lend their aid wherever and
whenever possible AS a matter Of
fact they are commencing TO recognize
the good road movement all over the
country, especially in Chicago where
Mayo Harrison has given the Illinois
Improvement association his personal
approval and recognition.

be overlooked, and all farmers and res

alike and without prejudice. Truck
gardeners, farmers, rural route car
riers, automobilists, etc, use the roads
continually, so that every one benefits
by the movement to better travelling
conditions and give the country better
roads.
The Use Of Drass.
Mr.. Edens especially recommended
the use of drags, stating an instance
in Quincy, where the roads were i'm

 Gangs of men were rushed to levees known to contain weak spots and the work of fighting the water began.
 Quarterpoats were iashed in readi- ness, supplies stored in convenient buildings and everything prepared to be moved on an emergency call Gov ernment steamboats were assembled for immediate use. Engineers are bending every energy to raise parts of levees where danger threatened in the rise of last month. The Wilson levee is weak, as a result of the break of last year Although the gap has been filled, it is not as strong as the rest of the levee. A crevasse occurred there in April, 1912, flooding the great CT portion of the St. Francis basin. Mound City, Ark, had bad break in 1912 and was threatened with an other early in 1913. That part Of the levee will be raised.
 Governor Brewer of Mississippi rushed a trainload of eonvicts to Beu- lah,. Miss, to try and close. the gap ahead of the rise. Reports received by the governor from engineers indi- cate that the high water this year will be greater than in 1912. Observer Elm cry says the crest of the present flood will reach Memphis in two weeks, and that it will not be checked to any great extent by cold weather.
 Planters in the Memphis district to. day began preparing for the coming flood. Telephone messages came to tne local United States Weather Bureau from all directions. Many left for their plantations to remove stock and warn help to get away or arrange fot probably the most severe flood that ever came down the Mississippi river.
 Local Forecaster Emery admitted that a 45-foot stage is possible. He said, however, conditions are greatly improved.
 Reports from Arkansas show that all rivers are going over their banks Black river at Black Rock began food- ing lowlands last week, and White and St. Francis rivers are crowding towns along their banks. Doubt is expressed by numbers of planters concerning the strength of the levees in certain dis tricts on the Mississippi. If they hold 45 feet, they say it will be miracle
