Mims, of Dawson, Oa., _ays: “A small pimple cf a strawberry color appeared on my cheek; it soon began to grow rapidly, notwithstand ing all efforts to check it. My eye became terribly inflamed, and was so swollen that for quite a while I could not see. The doctors said I had Cancer of the most malignant , type, and after ex- ^ hansting their efforts without doing me any good, they gave up w*.. hopeless. When in formed that my father had died from the same disease, they said I must die, as hereditary Cancer was incurable. “At this crisis, I was advised to try S.S.S., and iu a short while the Cancer began to discharge and continued to do so for three months, then it began to heal. I continued the medicine a while longer until the Cancer disappeared en tirely. This was several years ago and there has been no return of the disease.” A Real Blood Remedy.

C., Sep. 1).—At 2 o’clock this morning sufficient re turns are in to show that Governor Evans has been beaten for the Senate by General Earle. Allowing Evans two-thirds of the unreported vote and placing it over 80,000, he cannot re duce Eerie’s majority below 3,OIK) at ; the lowest estimate. At 2 o’clock this morning a vote of .">(»,HSS is ac counted for. The total vote in the first primary was 78,231. Of the vote already reported Evans lias 22,- 317 against Earle’s 31,070, Earle’s majority being 11.7o3. 'ihc vote re ported is pretty full. The people of the state took the keenest interest in the election and the result is 110 surprise in conse quence of the developments of the last few days. Governor Evans un questionably injured his chances by revelations in the dispensary scandal, and now it may be confidently ex pected tiiat more interesting revela tions than ever will come forth. This much has been indicated by those in possession of many facts of a far more Interesting character than those already made. The second primary election passed off hero yesterday very quietly. Earle received 182 and Evans 145 for I’. S. Bennte. Schumpcrt 17C> and Sease K>(> for solicitor. Howell 175 i and Leonard 15)5 for county super- | visor. Bishop 13n and Foster 200 ! for coroner. Burnett 222 and Nor man 108 for master. From the indication of partial re turns from the county Evans will get less than a thousand majority in this county, that it will be close between Schumpert and Sease for solicitor, and that Howell, Foster and Norman are elected. In the election here for Congress 5th District. Finley received 200 votes and Strati 108. — - -■ DEATH’S DOINGS. The Grim Reaper Saddens a Number of Homes.
