places becoming cancerous if not

way. Washes, salves and ointments
are good for external use, but they
can't stop the discharge or change
the condition of the blood, and for
this reason the sore never heals per
tnanently. Not until the blood it purged of
impurities and the system cleansed
of all harmful substances should the
ulcer heal, or the effect npon the sys

McKlnUy Day.
"The, Carnation league ot America,"

by this movement, in which the young

The custom was first observed on Jan

therefore, peculiarly appropriate to
him.

In the nation .there are thirty

do not Intermarry or socially mingle.
Two seminaries and an orphan asylum
ar attended by full bloods and mixed

by negroes only.
In the Incorporated school district
