TO CURE C.L
CHRONIC BORED
Signs of Polluted Blood.
There is nothing so repulsive looking and disgusting as an old sore.
You worry over ittill the brain grows weary and work with it until the
patience is exhausted, and the very sight of the old festering, sickly looking
place makes you irritable, despondent and desperate.
A chronic sore isthe very best evidence that your blood is in an unhealthy
and impoverished condition, that your constitution is breaking down under
the effects of some serious disorder. The taking of strong medicines, like
mercury or potash, will sometimes so pollute and vitiate the blood and im
pair the general system that the merest scratch or bruise results mn obstinate
non-healing sores of the most offensive character.
Often aninheritedtaint breaks outin frightful eating sores upon the limbs
or face in old age or middle life. Whenever a sore refuses to heal the blood
is always at fault, and, while antiseptic washes, salves, soaps and powders
can do much to keep down the inflammation and cleanse the sore, it will
never heal permanently till the blood itself has been purified and the deadly
germs and poisons destroyed, and with S. S. S. this can be accomplished-the
Spolluted blood is purified and invigorated, and when
rich,pureblood is again circulating freely throughout
the body the flesh around the old sore begins to take
on a natural color, the discharge of matter ceases
and the place heals over.
S. S. S. is both a blood purifier and tonic that puts your blood in order
anid at the same time tones up the system and builds up the general health.

Use of Both Hands.
There are comparatively few people
who can use both hands indifferently,
yet this is a most sensible accomplish
ment. When one hand grows tired, the
other should be able to take up the
work, for thus more can be accom
plished without undue fatigue. In the
mechanical departments of German
schools the boys are obliged to do
much of the work with their left
hands. They are taught to saw, plane
and hammer equally well with both
hands and to make large circles on the
blackboard first with one hand and
then with the other, says Home Notes.
Man, said to be the highest of ani
mals, is the only one which cannot use
all his limbs with equal ease. Man
uses his eyes equally well and his z
legs, but how few people can make C
their left hands do even half of the I
things accomplished easily by the right.
And this state of affairs is simply be- C
cause the left hand is not trained. The I
child is generally not allowed to let it '
do its share of work, but Is made to c
keep it idle while the right hand does
the greater part of the work of the
two.
Odd Cat Facts.
A good cat-the kind you want to
have in the house, if any-will have a g
round, stubby pug nose, full, fat cheeks r
and upper lip and a well developed t
bump on the top of the head between
the ears, betokening good nature. A r
sleepy cat that purs a good deal is
apt to be playful and good natured. r
By all means to be avoided is a cat I
with thin, sharp nose and twitching t
ears. It must be remembered also that v
a good mouser is not necessarily a gen- '
tle or desirable pet. Although any good N
cat will catch mice if she is not over- 1:
fed, quick, full, expressive eyes gener
ally betoken a good mouser. The great t
mistake and probably the most com- a
mon one in the care of domestic cats x
is overfeeding, particularly too much 1I
meat. In wild life the cat has exercise e
which enables her to digest her food. c
In the lazy house life the same full f
feeding leads to stomach troubles and n
to fits.

Unripe Jewels.
There was at one time a wonderful d
emerald extant with white corners, s
while all the rest of the stone was of t
Its proper velvety dark green hue. This t
stone was used as an illustrative proof t
that emeralds were born white, but I
ripened into the right color in the mine, s
time working one of Its usual mira- i:
cles on the crystal. Indeed, beryl, that
pale green stone exactly like the emer
ald' in all essentials save color, Eas
often been called the mother of emer
ald.
Aquamarine is a beryl-in other
words, an unripe emerald, not yet ma
tured into the proper tint, and of this
the commoner varieties are by no
means rare. Yet it is to be doubted
whether these - unripe stones would
ever mature -into the true and lawful
lustrous emerald.-London Queen.

The cereal grains-wheat, rye, oats,
arley, rice and Indian corn-which
re the seeds of true grasses, are con
ertible directly into food. The succu
nt leaves and culm of the wild grass
s furnish sustenance to millions of
attle, sheep and goats and are trans

aeat and clothing. They also protect

UMANNING HARD'
What Women Once Couldnr't Wear.
While we may pick and choose and
do exactly as we please about our
clothes, there have been in times gone
by, in many couitries and even in our
own, what were known as "suiuptuary
laws."- These laws regulated expendi
ture for dress, for ornament. for food
or for whatever refreshments you
might give company when they came
to take tea.
Among the first of these sumptuary
laws was one made in Rome in 215-B.
C. and called the "Oppian law." It de
clared that no woman should possess
more than half an ounce of gold, wear
a dress of different colors or ride in a
.vehicle in the city or within a mile of
it except on occasions of public reli
gious ceremonies. This law lasted only
twenty years.
Italy and France are the countries
where most of these laws have been
passed, and some of them read very
strangely. In 1330, in Italy, no woman
was allowed to wear a dress with fig
ures painted on it; she could only have
them embroidered. And in 1348, in the
same country. neither dark green nor
black dresses were allowed to be worn
in the morning.-St. Nicholas.
An Arab Spy Outwitted.
Once at least in Egypt the loss of his
eye in an earlier campaign proved a
great service to Lord Wolseley and his
army. Ile could get no information of
the enemy's strength or position. An
Arab was captured prowling around
our outposts and was brought before
him. It was ten to one the sullen.fel
low knew everything. Lord Wolseley
questioned him. The fellow answered
never a word, standing stolid between
the two soldiers. At last a happy idea
struck the general. Ile said in Arabic:
"It is no use your refusing to answer
me, for I am a wizard and at a wish
can destroy you and your masters. To
prove this to you I will take out my
eye, throw it up. catch it and put it
back in my head." And, to the horror
and amazement of the fellow, Lord
Wolseley took out his glass eye, threw
it up, caught and replaced it. That
was- enough. The Arab capitulated,
and the information he gave the staff
led to Arabi's defeat.-London Globe.
A Hidden Warning.
It is recorded in history that when
Darius, king of Persia, invaded Scythia
the ruler of the latter country, Idan
thuras, sent him a message consisting
of a mouse, a frog, a bird, an arrow
and a plow. The wisest men in the
army puzzled over the meaning of it,
which was conjectured to be that the
empire was surrendered. It was sup
posed that the mouse signified the
dwellings, the frog the waters, the
bird the air, the arrow the arms and
the plow the land.
But it turned out eventually that
the interpretation intended was that
unless Darius and his soldiers could-fly
like birds, burrow like mice or betake
themselves like frogs to the water they
would never escape the weapons of the
Scythians and make their way out of
the country.
Quieted Them.
There is an old story of Arthur Rob
erts, an English actor, which illustrates
how a little presence of mind may save
lives. There had been an alarm of

Cared of Chronic Diarrhoea After Ten Years of
Suffering.
-.1 wish to say a few words in praise
of Chamberlain's Colic, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy," says 'Mrs. Mattie
Burge. of -lartinsville. Va. "I suffered
from chronic diarrhoea for ten years
and during that time tried various
medicives without obtaining any per
manent relief. Last summer one of my
children was taken with cholera mor
bus, and I procured a bottle of this
renmedy. Only two doses were required
to give her entire relief. I then de
cided to try this medicine myself, and
did not use all of one bottle before I
was well and I have never since been
troubled with that complaint. One
cannot say too much in favor of that
wonderful medicine." This remedy is

influencing a Decision.
An old treasury department official
tells how the late Judge Gray decided
one of the earliest customs classifica
tion cases to cune before the supreme
court of the United States. The article
under consideration was a preparation
of fish which had been assessed for
duty as a sauce. The inferior courts
had given conflicting opinions as to
whether it really was a sauce, and by
the time the issue reached the dignified
supreme court the decisions either way
were voluminous enough to confuse the
most clear headed jurist.
Judge Gray examined the article, ac
cording to the Philadelphia Ledger, but
could not make up his mind. His col
leagues were equally undecided. When
things came to a standstill it occurred
to Judge Gray that a housewife would
probably be better qualified to decide a
matter of this kind. He took a sample
of the article home to Mrs. Gray.
"Nonsense; that's no sauce: it's fish!"
she said, and the next day the supreme
court of the United States solemnly de
cided the article was not a sauce.
We Are All "Just Folks."
"My boy," said a man of the state
of Texas to his son, who was starting
out for a career in an eastern city
"my boy, let me tell you something
which may be of help to you. You get
up there, and you may see a heap of
people who have got more money than
you have, a heap of people who have
got more brains than you have and
more success. Some of them may even
be better looking than you are. Don't
you worry about that, and don't you
be scared by anybody. Whenever you
meet a man who allows he's your su
perior you just look at him and say to
yourself, 'After all, you're just folks.'
You want to remember for yourself,
too, that you're just folks. My boy,
after you have lived as long as I have
and have khocked around the world
you will come to see that that's all any
one of us is--just folks."-Field and
Stream.
Speaking of Grain.
In the United States when one speaks
of "corn," maize is always meant. In
England "corn" is applied to -all cere
als, especially wheat In Scotland
"corn" means oats. Germans use the
word in the same sense as the Eng
lish. Carlyle, being a Scotchman, In
writing of Frederick the Great allows
himself to refer frequently to Fred
erick's "meal carts," when, strictly
speaking, he should have said "grain
carts." What the bread of Frederick's
soldiers was made of was wheat and
rye, not "corn" in the restricted Scotch
sense. In Scotland a "cornfield" is
only a field of oats.' Jamieson remarks
that the term "crn in northern Eu
rope is used to denote that species of
the grain most in use in any particular
region. Hence in Sweden and Iceland
the term denotes barley.

afterward that he was the keeper of
one of the Imperial palaces and had
been in the habit of laying under con

The Pansy Bed.
Always locate the pansy bed.in an
