Sorrow, shame and suffering ro hand ill hand with this great enemy, and man has always hated mid fought it as lie has no other disease. It is the most powerful of all poisons; no mat ter how pure the blood may be, when its virus enters, the entire circulation becomes poisoned and its chain of horrible symptoms begin to show. Usu ally the first sign is a small sore or ulcer, not at nil alarming in appearance, but the blood is being saturated with the deadly poison, aud soon the mouth and throat begin to ulcerate, the hair and eyebrows drop out, a red eruption breaks out on the body, copper-colored splotches and sores make their appearance and the poison even works down into the bones and nttacks the nerves. Not only is the disease hereditary, being transmitted from parent to child, In the form of scrofula, weak eyes, soft bones, weak, puny constitutions, etc., but is also so highly contagious that many n life has keen ruined by a friendly hand shake, or from using the toilet articles of one Infected with the poison. To cure this blighting, deadly curse the first begins to expel the poison and build tip .iuj strengthen the system. 8. S. S. is guaranteed purely vegetable.

It is olniuiod that MAN'S GREATEST ENEMY blood must be punned, ami nothing will do it so quickly and surely as S. S. S. It goes down to the very bottom of the trouble, drives out every particle of the poison and makes the blood clean and strong. It docs not hide or cover no .uivtlilmr. but from the by trying to do anything with this small amount tne inonoy will only oo wasted wtbout furnishing a satisfac tory system. It Is presumed that a pumping plant will be put In and tbo water pumped from Lost river, The people of Merrill are to be congr ttu liited on tholr progressivenes. They are Bhowlng the right spirit, but should make It a point to see that their money la well expeudod and the Improvements maue permanent as xar sb the money will go. DOCT0ES COULD NOT HELP HER.

It makes the dis eased kidneys sound so they will eliminate the poisons from the blood. Unless they do thiB, good health is impossible. Man and Woman.

She asked Aldred how much It would cost to cremate the body, and on being told the terms said they were satisfactory. "Now I'd like to see b coffin," she said. Aldred led the way to the rear of the shop and showed her several cas kets. "A plain one will do," she said, and It was agreed that a pine board coffin with no embellishments w luld oo used. ''I'm going away tomorrow," said Miss Scott, "and you'll probably hear from me on Saturday. Now don't for get I want the body cremated, and "I'll see that you got the money."

Hi Devotion la In ten mo and He Ii Froud of lile llellfrlon A truveloi' lu Africa writes: "This U a land Of religion. Tho MusHUlmuu'e UovoLluu Is Intense, ever present aud uJl pervading, being uqt au accessory tacked ou, as It were, to his life to be practiced moro or loss surreptitiously but an essential purt, wherewith unc wherelu he lives at all times, A Mus buliuau prays openly aud publicly, it nowise afraid to be seen. Every mau wears bis string of beads whereon he records the number of bis daily pray ers. Notwithstanding Its, to us, un inviting appearance, the religion has made and still Is making great strides in Afrlcu, aud one cau only attribute this to the fact that here at last Is a religion of which Its adherents are In uo way ashamed. It offers to the faithful absolute assurance of salva tion and engenders that blind, unhesi tating faith therein which is so com fortlng to the native mind. "Seeing a crowd of pilgrims bound foi Mecca patiently nay, with pleasure enduring the worst treatment that one could imagine meted out to herds of driven slaves, one envies the excess of faith that can engender such a dis position. Though robbed, slain, starr ed, herded with pestilence and sub jected to countless hardships and an noyances, yet year after year they come from far and near thousands and tens of thousands strong ou this the most wonderful and fur reaching of lat ter day pilgrimages. "At Jedda one sees pilgrims from all corners of the globe Dutch sub jects from Java, Chinese from Peking, shiploads from India and Further In dia, Russian subjects from all parts of tho great empire, French subjects from Algiers, from Morocco, and dusky negroes who have tramped for months from tho western shores of Africa. Through many lands and midst many tongues they come, all to meet at this thronged center of the maelstrom of the Mussulman faith." GREEK ATHLETES. The Way They Hun and the Style of Track They lined. "In the foot . races of the ancient Greeks," says a writer, "the shape of the stadium caused a great difference, since it was not circular, but long and narrow, with oue or both ends semicir cular. Consequently the runners had to take a sharp turn at the end of each lap, while except at the turu they were running a straight course. Evidently this turu needed much practice, for the pictures on tho old vases show athletes practicing this one part of the race as a kind of drill, taking each movement separately. "In early times, when all tbe runners turned round the same post, the turn gave opportunities for foul play, and there are stories of-one competitor trip ping another at the post or seizing him by the hair to prevent his winning. But later, In the shorter distances at least, each runner had his owu track and post to turn round, aud. probably the separate courses were roped off in much the same way as they are now in sprint races. For the start elaborate arrangements were made and at Oiym pia the stone slabs are still to be seeu, with the grooves at regular intervals that had to be toed at starting. "Greek long distance men ran In tbe most approved style of the present day. But tbe sprinters apparently em ployed a considerable amount of arm action and took very long steps, rising well on to the toes. Theu there was tbe race in armor, an event highly praised by several of the Greek write as a valuable preparation for war and which Is supposed to explain the fa mous running charge of the Athenians at Marathon." A Literary Coincidence. "My father, W. Clark Russell," said Herbert Russell ha telling of a literary coincidence, "had finished maturing the plot of his novel, 'The Death Ship,' which is a version of the legend of Van derdecken. I was his amanuensis at the time. He said to me. Tomorrow we will begin the story.' On the fol lowing morning when I entered his study to take bis dictation of the open ing lines he showed me a letter he bad Just received- It was from W. S. Gil bert, the well known dramatist, asking, him why he; did not write a novel about the Flying Dutchman." PnneralM In the Illfghlanda. A Scottish correspondent writes of funerals in the highlands: "There are no undertakers here. A carpenter makes tho simple coffin, relatives and friends carry it, hip high, to Its last resting place, which Is dug when the end of the Journey is reached, and, having walked perhaps six miles to tho chosen kirkyard, thoy take a re freshment of sandwiches and whisky and walk home again. The rigorous absence of pomp is maintained, but there is tbe added embellishment of pipe music" Got Near to Them. An English druggist gives the follow lng list of blunders made by his poorer customers; "Catch au eel" for cochi neal; "prosperous paste" for phospho rus paste; "grease It" for creosote; 'fi8hy water" for vlchy water; "guitar" for catarrh; "everlasting" for efferves cing.
