CARTERS OlTTLE rflVER KELT The worst disease the world has ever known, and the greatest scourge to the human race, is Contagious Blood Poison. One drop of the virus of this most horrible of all diseases will pollute and vitiate the purest, healthiest blood, and within a short time after the first little sore appears the system is filled with the awful poison and the skin breaks out in a red rash ; the glands of the groins swell, the throat and mouth become ulcerated," the hair and eyebrows drop out, and often the entire surface of the body s covered with copper-colored splotches and sickening sores and erup tions. Contagious Blood Poison is as treacherous and elusive as the serpent. You may be carrying it in your veins with no visible evidences of its existence ; for while mercury and potash seem to cure and all external signs disappear, the dis ease .is doing its destruc tive work within, or the patient is constantly harassed by reftfrning symptoms and unmistaka ble traces of the blood poison. Thousands of physical wrecks and chronic invalids from the effects of Blood Poison know the uncer tainty of the mercury and potash treatment that it stifles but does not kill the serpent. As long as there is life in the serpent there is danger in its fangs ; and while your blood is tainted there is danger of infec tion. Safety lies only in crushing out the life of the loathsome disease and killing the serpent. For many years S. S. S. has been known as an antidote for Blood Poison. It is a remedy composed entirely of vegetable ingredients, and we offer $i,oco for proof that it contains without Write us about your case, and our physicians will advise with out charge, and we will mail you free our home-treatment book tell ing all about Contagious Blood Poison and its different stages and ay mptoms.

Middlesex, N. Y., July 25.--(Spec- ial) That Rheumatism can be cured has been proved - bey end a doubt by Mrs. Betsey A. Clawson, well known here. That Mis Clawson had Kbeu matism and had it bad. all . her ac quaintances know. They also know Bhe is now cured. Dodd's Kidney Pills did it. Mrs. Clawson tells the story of her cure as follows: . "I was an invalid for most five years caused by- Inflammatory Rheumatism, helpless two-thirds of the time. The first year I could not do as much as a baby could do ; then I rallied a little bit and then a relapse. Then a year ago the gout set in my hands and feet. I suffered untold agony and in August, 1903, when my husband died I could not ride to the grave. "I only took two boxes of Dodd's Kidney Pills and in two weeks I could wait on myself and saw my own wood I dug my own potatoes and gathered my own garden last fall. Dodd s Kid' ney Pills cured me." Rheumatism is caused by uric acid in the blood. Dodd's Kidney Pills put the Kidneys in shape to take all the uric acid out of the blood.

I only know that in stead of being fabricated in the home or in great, clean, sanitary factories as In the United States, it is made some where In the bowels of the earth under the small bake shops. "J would no more dare go down into one of these bread kitchens than I would dare ask my cuisiniere' how many times in her life she has had a whole bath. I have seen enough at the counters where bread is sold to get the French point of view concerning bread, Which Is even worse than the French point of view concerning literature. "Just as I am writing I glance across the street into a bakeshop oppo site, and I see a woman dusting off a pile of bread In the window with a feather duster. They have absolutely no sense of any difference between bread and wood and coal, and they de liver it at one's home accordingly. It is never wrapped, and in pushcarts made of slats or In great openwork baskets it is heaped less carefully than wood or coal indeed, because bread is easier to buy than wood or coal in Paris. The carts or baskets are pushed or carried by women wearing stout, blue aprons covering them from neck to knee, which aprons, like the sheets on a French bed, are changed perhaps as often as once a month. Arrived at a house where bread is to be delivered, the open cart or basket stacked with the staff of life Is left in the road for the femmes de chambre all around merrily to shake down upon it any thing they will, while the woman mounts to one's apartment carrying the day's ration of petlts pains bundled up in her apron, and the two long, thin loaves of bread, unwrapped, of course, one under each arm." Harper's Bazar. Numbers in Early Days. In" a paper read before the Philologi cal Society of the University of Michi gan recently, Prof. George Hempl commented upon the forerunners of our present system of numeration. Some two years ago. In seeking the origin of the Runic letters (ihe first let ters used by the i Germanic races), Prof. Hempl discovered the primitive Germanic numeral notations. This threw new light upon the early Ger manic numeral system, as well as upon the primitive Indo-European numerical system and upon the development of the Greek alphabet and the Greek nu merical notation. The primitive Indo-European numer ical system was a mixture of the deci mal and the sexagesimal. The first large number was the "shock" that is, sixty and the next large number was the "hund," or "hundred," that is 320. Between 60 and 120 there were no numbers like our 70, etc., 70 being a shock and 10," and 80 being "a shock and 20." The introduction of our present numbers between 60 and 320, arose out of the introduction of the decimal hund or hundred, that is, 100, in distinction from which the old hun dred (120) was called the duodecimal hundred, or the "great hundred," which Is still used In Iceland and parts of England. Mistook; tbe Motive. An old man was sitting in the street-car. In the aisle near him stood a young woman. He made a move ment to rise, says the Detroit News, as if to give her his seat. 'Never mind, sir," said the young woman. Imperatively. "Just keep your seat" She smiled patronizingly on the old man, who stared and looked dazed. Alter two blocks more he again at tempted to rise, but the young wom an pushed him back, explaining po litely, "I've stood so long now I don't mind it. Please keep your seat" I say, young lady," cried the old man In shrill irritation, "I want to git off! You've made me go half a mile past my street already." : Hearing a Fly Walk. It is said that a fly makes 400 strokes per second wiui its wings, and it has been proven that by the use of the microphone you can hear a fly walk. - , Lockjaw," or tetanus, is caused by the development in the body of the tetanus bacillus," a germ Hying In the soli in many places, especially In city streets, round barns and stables and in pastures. This bacillus does -not grow readily when exposed to the air, so there is usually little danger of lockjaw following large wounds. The danger lies in the punctured wounds, the ragged wounds, and often also the seemingly trivial wounds "which heal rapidly, and so seal up the : tetanus germ away from the air; there it -finds the conditions most favorable to its development and the manufacture of the nerve poison which causes the symptoms of this terrible disease. Such being the case, the treatment of little wounds from pistols, torpedoes and crackers is to- make them bigger. This requires" some courage on the part of the doctor, and the more cour age the smaller and apparently more insignificant is, the- wound, and par ents ought not to increase his trial by pleading against the necessity of cut ting deeply into the wound, opening It widely and washing it out thoroughly with antiseptic solutions. It is only in this way that the danger of lockjaw can be reduced to a minimum, and even this in exceptional cases does not prevent the disease. The modern treatment -for this dis ease is the injection of tetanus anti toxin. Even this may fall if injected simply under the skin or into the mus cles, and the antitoxin has occasion ally been injected into the sheath cov ering the spinal cord, or even beneath the membranes of the brain, so that it may the more directly reach the nerve centers chiefly affected by the poison. WAS NEVER ABSENT OR TARDY. NELLIE J. M'itJXLIN. The proudest day in the life of Nellie J. McMillin of Rushville, Ind., was when the County Board of Education presented her with a gold medal for punctual school attendance. Miss Mc Millin is 16 and has attended school since she was 5, and in all that time she was never absent or tardy. The last four years she has lived in the country, which made punctual attend a nee. a serious matter, but her record is unbroken. She has graduated now. English Bard Was Right. Dramatic critics and commentators have long been puzzled to account for the fact that Shakespeare placed the scene of "Hamlet" at Elsinore, in the Island of Zealand, whereas the Dan ish prince lived and died in Jutland. But Just recently the municipal au thorities at Elsinore, or Helsingor, have discovered In their archives that an English company was acting in their town in 1587 or 1588, and among the names of the actors are several of those who were acting with Shake speare in London in 1589. Obviously, these actors must have talked about their adventures in Den mark, and so Shakespeare became well acquainted with Elsinore, and, when he wrote "Hamlet" naturally placed the 6cene in a place which he knew by description rather than in an island of which he knew nothing. The poet was no great stickler for accuracy in geographical matters and this visit of the English actors plausibly explains the reason why the tragedy of "Ham let" was placed in Zealand and not in Jutland. Cure for Indigestion. Scientific investigation has discov ered that that troublesome disease, dyspepsia, can be cured by short in tervals of exposure to intense cold, followed by hearty eating. M. Raoul Pictet a Swiss gentleman, was ex perimenting with, a low temperature. He had produced an artificial temper ature in a sort of pit which caused the thermometer to sink to 140 or 150 de grees below zero. Among other ex periments he - exposed himself for a brief interval to this temperature by lowering himself into the pit On emerging he found himself intensely hungry and ate freely. ' The process was "repeated several times, and as a result he found himself cured of chron ic indigestion, from which he had suf fered for years.

The symptoms of summer ca tarrh are quite unlike in different cases, but the most common ones are general lassitude, played-out, tired-out, used-up, run-down feel ings, combined with more or less heavy, stupid, listless, mental condition. Relish for food and the ability to digest food seems to be lost.
