Day on Which Women Rule.

Candlemas day Is not celebrated in
Holland much more than in England
but its place is taken by festival un.
known in this country. Slipper day in
the Netherlands is the one day in the
year in which the Dutch woman
claims superiority over her husband
On that day she rules him to her
hearts content, and he generally
obeys good humoredly enough That
is, unless she IS one Of those ladies'
not unknown in Holland or in any
other country who aspire to complete
rule over their unhappy partners

It IL certainly remarkable how quickly
the action Of s. S. S., the famous blood
purifier, shows itself In the skin.
There is one ingredient in S. S. 8,
which peculiarly stimulates cellular or
giandular activity to select from the
blood, or from the fine network Of blood
vessels in the skin, those elments which
It requires for regeneration.
Thus pimples. acne. eczema, lupus or
any other blood condition that attacks
the skin or seeks an outlet through the

You win be surprised and delighted at
