NEW YORK, July 3. New York
will spend about $4,000,000 tomor
row in celebrating ihe anniversary of
the Declaration of Independence, If
Jupe Pluvlua and the local w?uthej
sharps provide anything resembling
a fair day. Incidentally, sever:.! per
sons, mainly Bmall boys, will lay
down their lives upon the altar ot
patriotism. The number of injured
will mount into the hundreds the
list last year numbered nearly 400.
A dozen or two youngsters will pick
it up because it didn't go off right
away, and will lose a few fingers or
an eye or two as a result. The per
ennial fool who didn't know it was
loaded will get in his usual deadly
work. Premature explosions of fire
works will take place In many and
divers places and the firemen of the
metropolis will be kept busy. The
ambulance surgeons, too. will have
an active time of it in administering
first aid to the injured. Altogether
it mav be said that New York is
headed toward another glorious and
bloody Fourth, and nothing but the
details are lacking for a full descrip
tion. Dealers In fireworks, who have
their habitat In Park place, admit to
doing a bigger husiness than ever be
fore. It Is estimated that $2,000.
000 is a modest estimate of the cost
of the explosives and fireworks that
will go up in smoke tomorrow and
that the grand total of the nntlor
will be in the neighborhood of $25,-
000.000. Many new and novel wavi
to-burn up monev have been invent
ed for this season's trade.
If all the folks within the greater
cltv would stay at home and set ofl
their fireworks and firecrackers, the
bigeest town in the country would
easily give a $"..000,000 fillip to the
dav we celebrate.
Last year's record in New York
was four killed, about 400 injured
and lit! fires. With fair weather, to
morrow's roll of the dead and injur
ed Is expected to be even greater and
more glorious.

SC DRIVES OUT
eD. BLOOD HUMORS
The akin is not simply an outer covering of the b.xly. but through its
thousands of pores and glands it perfotms the great anil nwi-sry work of
regulating on temperatures, and also assists in disposing of the refuse and
waste matters of the system by the constant evaporation that gm-s on
through these little tubes. To perform these duties the tissues and fibres
which connect and surround the pores and glands must lie continually nour
ished by pure blood. When from any cause the circulation becomes infected
with impurities and humors, it loses its strengthening powers and begins to
disease and irritate the delicate tissues, and produces Kczeina, Acne. Tetter,
or some other itching, disfiguring skin trouble. S. S. S. cures skin dise.is 5
of every kind by going down into the circulation and neutral ling an 1 remov
ing the impurities and humors. It changes the quality of the blood from an
acrid, fiery fluid to a cooling, health-producing stream, which, inst-ad of
irritating and inflaming the skin, cures and nouri-lus it by its sit'iin.r.
healthful qualities. Salves, washes, lotions, etc.. may be used for any tern
porarv comfort or cleanliness they afford, but skin diseases cannot be cured
until S S. S. has purified the blood. Book on Skin Diseases an 1 anv nici

WASHING TON, July 3. After

In a few days the patient returns

when it is too late, antitoxin is given,
he wound is thoroughly cleaned out

"It should be an Invariable pro

Road lu Coos
It has been suggested by local
citizens that an active movement
should be inaugurated here for
building substantial modern roads in
ill parts of Uouglus county. Among
the leaders in this movement is
IJoosler" J. D. Zurcher, of the
Uoseburg Commercial Club. He
suggests that u permanent "Good
Koads Association" to be tormed and
everybody requested to join. Fvery
road supervisor in the county is ex
pected lu be u leader in tills move
ment in his own locality. Every
farmer and every resident of the
towns who own a vehicle of any kind
-mould enroll himself as a member.
I'his does not mean to become mere
ly a nominal member, but an active
one, who will help to bring about
the primary object sought the
building of good roads at the ear
l iest possible opportunity.
Where lo (iet the Money.
Of course, the lirst requisite to
ward systematic road building it
funds. Very few people of our coun-
reallze the fact that approximate
ly one-half of our taxes ure paid b
aon-residents. including the rail
oad company and large timber-land
holders. lly a general levying 01
special road taxes in all the disiriet
throughout the county, one-hall the
expense would thus be borne by
:hose nou-resldenis. while all tin
money would be expended right it
home among the people who put (ti
he pther half of the expense. In
this way our people can not only
provide themselves witii first das
roads in a very short time, but a-t-lally
have more money than they
tarted with, to say nothing of tin
ldded Increase In proper! y value.1
,'ained by the better faeilltles for
ransportation and travel afforded bj
-uich roads. No need lo go a wa
'Yon 1 home to find examples show
ing the benefits of building good
oads. Many road districts ean point
:hem out right at home. Kuch bene
Ills are numerous as well as ob
vious, and here is a good suggestion
is to how they may be acquired.
Auto ltoiul lo Coon
Mr. F. 11. Walte, one of our most
ictive and progressive citizens, in
onversation with a itevlew . repre
sentative on the good roads topic
MiKesis the great possibilities and
advantages that would be derived b
houglas and Coos eoiintles If they
-voiilil unite in building a good j-u-loniobile
road from Itoseburg t(
Marshlield or Myrtle Point. My thh
lie means a ro;td that eould readily
be traversed by automobiles, as well
:is 01 her ve)i irle.s, at all seasons of
1 he year. Such a road would put
Itoseburg in direct com inn n bat lot:
with" Coos Hay In an easy daylight
'rip of a few hours at all seasons of
the year, instead of tin LM to 4S
hour continuous struKtde now re
'I uired. From all Indications Mr
Mflriinmn is not going to be In an
hurry about building his projected
railroad to Coos May and sinh a
road as Is suggested br M r. Waih
would result in an immense amount
of, traffic being brought to Itoseburg
and hoimlas county. t is estiniat
ed that the cost of such a road from
here to the county line would ap
proximate I'.u.iiiMi. and hs benefits
to our county would b at least that
sum every year, while Coos count)
would be benefitted still more. I,o
