THAT DO
NOT HEAL
SORES
Whenever a sore or ulcer does not heal, no matter on what part of the
body it may be, it is because of a poisoned condition of the blood. This
poison may be the remains of some constitutional trouble; the effect of a
long spell of ^ickness, which has left this vital stream polluted and weak,
or because the natural refuse matter of the body, which should pass off
through the channels of nature, has been left in the system and absorbed
into the circulation. It does not matter how the poison became intrenched
in the blood, the fact that the sore is there and does not heal is evidence of
a deep, underlying cause. There is nothing that causes more discomfort,
worry and anxiety than a festering, discharging old sore that resists treat
ment. The very sight of it is abhorrent and suggests pollution and disease;
besides the time and attention required to keep it clean and free from other
infection. As it lingers, slowly eating deeper into the surrounding flesh, the
sufferer grows morbidly anxious, fearing it may be cancerous. Some
of those afflicted with an old sore or
ulcer know how useless it is to ex
pect a cure from salves, powders, lo
tions and other external treatment.
Through the use of these they have
seen the place begin to heal and scab
over, and were congratulating them
selves that they would soon be rid of
the detestable thing, when a fresh
supply of poison from the blood
I have had a crippled foot all my liie,
which compelled me to use a brace. By
some unaccountable means this brace
caused a bad Ulcer on my le?, about six
years agro. I had good medical atten
tion, but the Ulcer got worse. I was in
duced to try S. S. S., and am glad to say
it cured me entirely, and I am convinced
that it saved my leg for me. I have,
therefore, great faith in S. S. S. and
gladly recommend it to all needing a
reliable blood medicine.

would cause the inflammation and old discharge to return and the sore would
be as bad or worse than before. Sores that do not heal are not due to out
side causes ; if they were, external treatment would cure them. They are
kept open because the blood is steeped in poison, which finds an outlet
through these places. While young people, and even children, sometimes
suffer w’ith non-healing sores, those most usually afflicted are persons past
middle life. Often, with them, a wart or mole on the face inflames and be
gins to ulcerate from a little rough handling ; or a deep, offensive ulcer de
velops from a slight cut or bruise. Their vital energies and powers of re
sistance have grown less, and circulation weaker, and perhaps some taint in
the blood, which was held in check by their stronger constitutions of early
life, shows itself. It is well to be sus-
picious of any sore that does not heal
readily, because the same germ that
produces Cancer is back of every old
sore to be
w w w circulation to produce this fatal disease.
There is only one way to cure these old
sores and ulcers, and that is to get every
particle of the poison out of the blood. For this purpose nothing equals
S. S. S. It goes down to the very bottom of the trouble, cleanses the blood
and makes a permanent cure. S. S. S. enriches and freshens the circulation
so that it carries new, strong blood to the diseased parts and allows the placs
to heal naturally. When this is done the discharge ceases, the sore scabs
over and fills in with healthy flesh, and the skin regains its natural color.

JAPANESE AIM TO
EXPAND INDUSTRY
All Efforts am Turned in That
Direction.
SETTLED TO REGULAH WORK
Dissatisfaction Over Peace at Ports
mouth Only Temporary—Feel Great
Gratitude Toward American People.
Togo to Visit United States.
New York, Dec. 13.—Lloyd Griscom,
United Staies minister to Japau, ar
rived in this city, coming by way oi
Sun Francisco on a short leave oi ab
sence. Last night he talked imerest-
ingly about Japan, her condition alter
the war and Ihc present prospects in
the far east.
Since the war, Mr. Griscom said, the
Japanese people have settled down to
their regular occupations. The govern,
ment is busy paying off its war debts
and adjusting its finances. The whole
aim of the Japanese is toward indus
trial’expansion at present. All efforts
are turned in that direction. As to
the alter peace rioting Mr. Griscom
said that the dissatisiaciion over the
peace of Portsmouth was merely tem
porary and has become unimportant
now. The feeling of discontent has
entirely disappeared and the Japanese
people feel great gratitude toward the
American people and particularly to
President Roosevelt for bringing about
peace. The mikado issued au edict
telling the people that there was a gov-
ernment caring for their interests and
advising them to attend to their regu
lar occupations. The people obeyed
as they obey everything emanating
from the mikado. Mr. Griscom de
clared emphatically that after the ex
citement due to the first news from
Portsmouth had subsided the people
sided unanimously with the govern
ment and recognized the wisdom of
making peace with Russia. He was
asked about Korea and the Japanese
protectorate.
“Korea is not strictly in my prov
ince,” he said, “and although I saw
Marquis Ito shortly before his depart
ure from Japan to Korea, the Korean
question has developed since I left
Japan. People in the United States
are better informed concerning Korea
than I am.
"I saw Admiral Togo frequently be
fore my departure from Japan,” the
minister said. “He told me that he
intended to visit the United States
with his fleet next autumn, after first
paying a visit to England. Japan’s ally.
I told him to go, that he would be cor.
Jially received, as the American peo
ple are always glad to welcome a
brave man.”
Mr. Grl«com Intends to go on to
Washington in a day or two. His de
parture from this city has been delay
ed by a cold brought on by the change
to the American climate. He had not
decided just when he will return to
Japan.
STYLED “OFFICIAL BUTCHER.”
Notre Dame Professor Wrote Card to
Sheriff Who Hanged Woman.
Indianapolis, Ind., Dec. 13—For
sending a postal card addressed to li.
H. Peck, “Official Woman Butcher.
Windsor, Vt.,” through the mails, Rob
ert L. Green, professor of chemistry
ar Notre Dame university, was fined
$10 and costs, upon a plea of guilty
in the United States district court.
The card was sent to H. H. Peck,
sheriff at Windsor, in connection witn
the case. of Mrs. Mary Rogers, wno
was executed last Friday for the mur
der of her husband. The charge con
tained in the indictment found against
Gre^n by the last federal grand jury
was sending offensive and scurrilous
literature through the mails.
In exti nualion of his offense Green
said that (he card was written and
sent upon impulse after reading of the
case, without being fully acquainted
with its details.

tion left Tuesday at noon for New
Y’ork city, where he goes to address
the Southern Societry of Mow’ York
at its annual banquet Wednesday
evening.
Mr. Jordan will speak to the south
erners of New’ York of the conditions
in the south, and especially of the
great farmers’ movement, giving them
some idea o'" what the Southern Cottoa
association has accomplished toward
increasing the price of cotton. His ad
dress promises to he one of tne fea
tures of the big banquet.
On his return Mr. Jordan will stop
in Washington and begin a fight
against the passage of the Lovenuq
resolution, introduced in congress Mon
day. This solution, which was pre
sented by Congressman Lovering of
Massachusetts provides for the issue
of a second report on the cotton cro.i
by the department of agriculture on
Jan. 10, on tne ground tnat the recent
estimate was incorrect.
Mr. Jordan says that the resolution
is a vicious one, and that if it should
pass congress it would have an uufor
tunate effect, as it would lead the coun
try to believe that congress consid
ered the recent report a false one.

Hague Conference Plans Suspended.
Washington, Dec. 13.—The state de.

plans to arrange a date for the re
assembling of The Hague conference
has been suspended for the time be
ing, and it is now believed to 'be im
possible for the second conference to
meet early next year, as was once ex
pected. The delay does not arise from
any indisposition on the part of the
great powers to accept the Russian
emperor’s invitation, but simply be

Savannah. Ga., Dec. 13.—Dispatches
from Macon and Atlanta state that a

Is an error. The facts are that the
