PimpIes Should
Be Watched
May be Means of Absorbing Disease
Germs in Most Unexpected
Manner,

The world renowned laboratory of
the Swift Specific Company has col
lected vast amount of information
regarding the spread of blood diseases
In thousands of instances the most
virulent types have been the result of
coming in contact with disease germs
in public places, and the apparently in
significant pimple has been the cause
1t spreads with astonishing rapidity,
often injecting the entire system in
few days.
It is fortunate, however, that there
is remedy to cope quickly and thor
oughly with such a condition, and
thanks to the energy of its producers
the famous S. S. S. may now be had
at almost any drug store in the civil
lied world.
This preparation stands alone as
blood purifier. 1t is somewhat revolu-
tonary in it's composition, since it
accomplishes all that was ever claimed
for mercury, iodides, arsenic, and other
destructive mineral drugs, and yet it
is absolutely a purely vegetable prod
uct 1t contain-@Gnt ingredient which
serves the active purpose of stimu-
lating each tiny cellular part of the
tissues to the healthy and judicious
selection of it's own essential nutri-
ment. There are more cases of ar
ticular rheumatism, locomotor ataxia,
paresis, neuritis, and similar diseases
resultant from the use of minerals
than most people are aware of. These
| facts are brought out in a highly in
teresting book compiled by the medical
department of The Swift Specific Co..
1877 Swift Bldg, Atlanta, Ga. 1t is
mailed Free together with a special let
ter of advice, to all who are struggling
with a blood disease.
Get a bottle of s. S. S to-day
of your druggist. It will surprise you
with it's wonderful action in the blood.

Is the Appointment Of Samuel
Hays as Internal Reeve
nue. Collector.


WASHINGTON, May 27.-The SEN
ate has confirmed the nomination of
Sam A. Hays to be collector of inter-
nal revenue for the district of West
virginia. No opposition was made to
him from any source after the nomi-
nation was sent in, and the only OPP
position before the sending in of his
nomination was from those who
wanted the appointment for another
No statement has been
made as to when Mr.. Hays will as
sumo charge of the Office, but it will
take a while to have his bond ap-
proved and as the first of July is the
beginning of the fiscal year, it is pos
sibIe that the change will not be made
till that date. Mr.. Hays has not been
here since his appointment so nothing
is known as to his plans for re-
organization of his Office force. Should
Senator overman succeed in his plan
of having deputy collectors of inter
nal revenue Withdrawn from the pro-
visions of the civil service he may be
able to put in an entirely new force
of his own selection.
