A Balanced Account.
"A fair exchange is no robbery." So
the text-books have taught us, and
now another Instance, quoted by the
New York Tribune, arises to illustrate
the proverb anew. An American, well
known for his wealth, receive innu
merable letters asking him to sub
scribe to eharltlog, and often, when
the credentials of the project seem du
bious, he bus to refuse.
Not long ago he bad a letter from
London, signed by an unfamiliar
name. "Knowing as 1 do your gener
osity," the stranger wrote, "I have put
you down for a two-hundred-dollar sub
scription to our miners widows' fund.
Christmas Is approaching, and we pro
pose to give a fowl and a Christmas
pudding to each miner's widow, on
Christmas eve."
The millionaire replied: "Though I
know nothing of you or your fund. I
respond gladly to the call you . make
upon me. I, too, am Interested in n
charity similar to yours. It is an
American charity, and since it stands
in need of funds for n Christmas treat
I have not hesitated to put you down
for a subscription of two hundred dol
lars. Thus no money need pass be
tween us."

not Btir this very much. After the
white layer hardens a little, put an
other of the brown. Mark off into
squares or long pieces, and cut so as
to show to advantage the alternating
stripes of color. Instead of the brown,
one can color the first with poke-
berry Jelly or other coloring that will
give a red tint, and if vanillu is not
liked, pineapple will make a nice con
trast to the flavor of the white candy.

NERVOUSNESS aiu
WEAKNESS CURED
BY PE-RU-NA
Miss Sadie Robinson, 4 Rand street,
Maiden, Mass., writes:
'Teruna was recommended to me
about a year ago as au excellent remedy
for the troubles peculiar to our sex,
and as I found that all that was said of
this medicine was true, I am pleased to
endorse it.
"I began to use it about seven months
ago for weakness and nervousness, caused
from overwork and sleeplessness, and
found that in a few days I began to grow
strong, my appetite increased and I began
to sleep better, consequently my nervous
ness passed away and the weakness in the
pelvic organs soon disappdared anp I have
been well and strong ever since."

Physicians Recommend Castoria
ASTORIA has met with pronounced favor on the part of physicians, pharma-
centical societies and medical authorities. It is used by physicians with
results most gratifying. The extended use of Castoria is unquestionably the
result of three facts: The indisputable evidence that it is harmless:
5 That it not only allays stomach pains and quiets the nerves, but assimi
latts the food : Third It is an agreeable and perfect substitute for Castor Oil
It is absolutely safe. It does not contain any Opium, Morphine, or other narcotic
and ins not stupefy. It is unlike Soothing Syrups, Bateman's Drops, Godfrey's
Oortiil. tte. This is a good deal for a Medical Journal to say. Our duty, how
fvir, is to iipose danger and record the means of advancing health. The day
for poistnisg innocent children through greed or ignorance ought to end. To
our knowltdge, Castoria is a remedy which produces composure and health, by
regulating the system not by stupefying it and our readers are entitled to
the information Hall's Journal of Health.

Dr. Win. I. UeCann, of Omaha, Neb., says : "As tha father of thirteen children
I certainly kaow something about your great medicine, and aside from my own

efficient remedy in almost every home."
Dr. J. R. Clausen, of Philadelphia, Pa., says: "The name that your Castoria
has made fer Itself In the tens of thousands of homes blesivd by the presence of
children, scarcely needs ta be supplemented by the endorsement of the mull rat pro
fession, but 1, for one, moat heartily endorse It and believe It an excellent remedy."
Dr. Channtng H. Cook, of Bt. Ixwls, Mo., says: "I have used your Castoria for
several years past In my own family and have always found It thoroughly eHlrlent
and never objected to by children, which Is a great consideration In view of tha fact
that moat medicines of this character are obnoxious and therefore difficult of ad
ministration. As a laxative, 1 consider It the peer of anything that I ever pre

scribe proprietary preparations, but In the cfe of Castoria niy experience, like that
of many other physlflsns, has taught me to make nn exception. I prescribe your
Caatorla In my practice because I have found It to be a thorotiKhly reliable remedy
for children's complaints. Any physician who has rr.lsed a family, as t have, wlij)

1 ne disease that lias done more T'H.Tinzif
than any other to wreck, ruin and JrIiiLlvl I
humiliate life, is Contagious Blood Poison. Sorrow, shame and suffering go
hand in hand with this great enemy, and man has always hated and fought
it as he 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 i3 a small sore or ulcer, net at all 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 attacks
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
been 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
uiooci must be punned, and 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 does not hide or cover up anvthinsr. but from tho
first begins to expel the poison and build up and strengthen the system.
S. S. S. is guaranteed purely vegetable.. We offer a reward of $1,000 for
proof that it contains a particle of mineral of any kind. Book on the dis
ease, with instructions for home treatment, and any advice desired, without
charge. THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., ATLANTA, CAm
