NATURE'S
PERFECT TONIC
There is scarcely any one, no matter liow vigorous and healthy, who
does not need a tonic sometimes. Little physical irregularities upset the
system, the appetite fails, digestion is poor, the body feel3 tired and worn
out, and other unpleasant symptoms give warning that the system is disor
dered and needs assistance to ward off, perhaps, some serious sickness or
ailment. S. S. S. is recognized everywhere as the best of all tonic9, nature's
medicine, made entirely of healing, cleansing, invigorating roots and herbs,
a systemic remedy without an equal. S. S. S. has the additional value of
being the greatest of all blood purifiers. It re-establishes the healthy circu
lation of the blood, rids the body of that tired, worn-out feeling, improves the
appetite and digestion, and brings about a return of- health to those whose
systems have been weakened or depleted. S. S. S. acts more promptly and
pleasantly than any other medicine, and those who are run down in health
should commence its use at once. It will thoroughly purify the blood and
tone up the system. S. S. S. is admirably suited for a systemic remedy
because it is free from minerals ; it may be used without harmful results by
persons of any age, and no unpleasant effects ever follow.

One of the most successful hoaxes of
history was the mechanical chess play
er with which liu ron Kempe'eii of
Hungary,' astonished Europe about the
year 1700. This was npimrently a fig
ure controlled by mechanical devices,
and which was able, notwithstanding
the fact that apparently no Intelligence
was concerned In Its movements and
decisions, generally to beat Its human
antagonists. The cublnet connected
with the automaton appeared entirely
too small to contain a hidden operator.
And yet It did conceal a man who was
an expert chess player. He was a
Polish patriot who had lost both of
his legs. This man, Woropsky by
name, was an expert player. With

For 1,400 years the Faust legend
the sale of a human soul to a devil
has existed. The first recorded hint of
its vitality is given In the sixth cen
tury story of "Theophilus." Thnt story
suited the early Christians In their ef
forts to stamp out the necronmnclng
devices of evilly disposed persons prone
to seek power by unholy means. The
association of the name of Faust, how
ever, with the legend Is not more than
400 years old. The likeliest prototype
of the modern Faust is the man of tho
same name who In Cracow boldly pro
claimed himself a professor of magic.
In the sixteenth century stories Helen
of Troy was bestowed by Mephlstopho
les upon Faust and not until the mid
dle of the eighteenth century does there
appear a shadowy Margaret, In tliu
form of a "beautiful but poor girl,"

Rheumatism Prescription.
The increased use of whiskey for
rheumatism is causing considerable
discussion among the medical frater
nity. It is an almost infallible cure
when mixed with certain other ingred
ients and taken properly. The follow
ing formula is effective : "To one half
pint of good whiskey add one ounce of
Toris Compound and one ounce of Syrup
Sarsaparilla Compound. Take in table
spoonful doses before each meal and
before retiring."
Toris compound is a product of the
laboratories of the Globe Pharmaceu
tical Co., Chicago, but it as well as the
other ingredients, can be had from any
