If Old Sores were due to outside influences, or if tlie cause was confined
strictly to the diseased flesh around the ulcer, then external treatment and
imple cleanliness would cure them. But the trouble is in, the blood, which
has become unhealthy and diseased, and keeps the sore open by continually
discharging into it the impurities and poisons with which the circulation is
(filled. This poisonous condition of the blood may be the remains of some
iTiuomuuunm irouuic: ine eneci oi a
natural refuse of the body, which should pass off through the proper avenues,
has been left in the system and absorbed iuto the blood. Again, the cause
iinay be hereditary ; but it does not matter how the poison becomes intrenched
in toe Dloou, the lact that the sore will not heal is evidence of a deep underly
ing cause. Salves, washes, lotions, etc., may cause the place to scab ovei

A Sometime Boy's Reverie; An Old
Man's Soliloquy.
I see a boy 'bout 10 years old
standln' behind the old log stable
peeping furtively through the chinks;
standln' on one foot he digs In the
soft loose sand with his big toe; cot
ton trousers rolled to the knee, one
button In front, one behind fastened
to one 'gall us' over the left shoulder
(so he can throw good); hickory shirt,
not many buttons; chip hat, not much
brim and most of the top gone, but the
rich growth of flaxen hair hangs very
gracefully through the holes and
make good all the hat don't. At his
feet lies his brown-eyed friend full
length, chin on paws, his bright, lov
ing and wistful eyes looking Into his
master's (no; his partner's) troubled
face while patting the dust Into little
clouds with his tall. Half starting
and whining, he threatens the ground
squirrel that skoots along the bottom
rail of the old worm-fence and van
ishes In a rotten log nearby. .
That settles It. Both flash away
like shadows through the hazel bush
es down the hill with flying feet to
the "holler." Jeff trees a groundhog.
Boy digs, dog digs, pulls and tugs at
roots savacely growlln' fiercely the
while. Soon! Out rolls Mr. Ground
hog!
What a glorious fight!' Boy, dog
and groundhog covered with mud and
sweat; he carries his quarry by the
hind foot homeward and gives It to
the old sow and pigs. Then to the
house In time for dinner; he tells ps
and ma how he "was Just a huntln1
for thet young heifer," and while he
scrubs his sweaty face in the cool,
