14 THIS LUTHERAN VISITOR February 13, 1902 gelMfad* Men—An Eximple for tho American Tooth. There are a lot of new congress men in Washington this winter, and many of them are "self-made” men. To be a congressman is a high ambition for an American boy, and one which many an American boy cherishes. It is seldom gratified. Of the many congressmen who have talked about their early ambitiocs only one began life with the firm determination to be a member of congress. He was a southern man, and he educated himself with the house of representatives always in his eye. When the voice of the people called be was undoubtedly ready. *‘My first money was made by ordinary manual labor," said Joseph T. Johnson of South Car olina. Mr. Johnson is too modest a man to tell all that this represents of hardship and struggle, but Dr. Smith, bis family physician, ha 4 told the story of his early struggle*. His father died when he was tw»» years old, and his mother when he was 14. “I have always understood that he cut cord-wood, picked cot ton, hoed cotton, and did what work be could get to do on Satur days and in vacation,” says Dr. Smith. M I have seen many a time the oxen he drove through the streets of Dus West morning and evenings before and after college hours, in order to make money to pay his expenses. That he suc ceeded in getting a splendid ed ucation no man will deny. He made a special study cf economic questions and, in my opinion, is the beat informed man in tbe state.” Capt. Hobson of Merrlmac Fans Washington, February 5.—It is expected that an effort will be made to obtain legislative authorization for the retirement of Constructor Hobson from the naval service. Capt. Hobson is now inWasbington and is desirous of retiring, basing bis application on the bad state of his eyes, resulting from exposure in working on Spanish ships after the late war. The naval retiring board concluded that his disability was not sufficient to warrant the retire ment under the existing regula tions and recourse must be had to congress. It is believed that the navy department will approve of such legislation if its opinion is called for by congress. For Croup use CflENEY’-S EX PECTORANT. Scrofula Scrofula ia an unwelcome legacy, but one which the children of blood poisoned parentage must accept, with all its humiliating consequences. It is an inheritance that makes one poorer; that brings wretchedness snd disease instead of health _ and riches, for the child whose ancestral blood is tainted with Scrofula or the loathsome virus of Contagious Blood Foison is unfitted for the arduous duties of life so long as any of the transmitted poison remains " "" ''V* r in its veins. Scrofula manifests itself in various forms; swollen glands about the neck and throat, catarrh of the head, weak eyes, hip bone disease, white swelling and offensive sorea and abscesses are familiar symptoms, attended usually with loss of strength, poor digestion and pale or bloodless complexion. The skin is sometimes most dreadfully affected, eruptions breaking out on all parts of the body. Scrofula destroys bone, tissue and flesh; po part of the human system escapes its —a withering, benumbingtoudi.
