J Washington. Feb. 24, Chief John -A.
Wllkie, of the secret service, who Is , now
also in charge of the special agents
for the customs service, and who has
made commercial arid polite smuggling
in this country as dangerous as coun-
s terfelting. after a long and varied career
a chaser of newspaper " stories" and,

"Dainty Things for the Dressing Ta-
. ble, or Seen In the Shops for Dainty
tFeminnity" would hardly be appropriate
' headings for the chief's column on the
. ..woman' page, ... however. :.. A- headline
right, to the point would b: "How to
Buy Things in Europe and Keep Out
of Jail." -The
chief has recently returned to
'.Washington from a trip to Europe in
the Interest of the customs service.
; While there he observed shopping condi
tions as applied to American, tourists
how those who wish to-smuggle go
about it and get into trouble and how
good lntentioned folks are victimised
by shrewd shopkeepers into becoming
Innocent smugglers, also getting into
-trouble. Today he made to the United
Press the following observations:
. Sooelled Bargains Hazardous. .
, "When shopping abroad be careful of
taking up 'bargains' goods which the
.seller wants. you to buy because you
'can get. them so much cheaper than in
th United States because of the duty
through American ports. - These 'bar-
gains'- are not always what they seem.
I'll tell you a story to illustrate.
"A prominent cltisen of a large east
ern city of the United States recently
visited Canada. At - the hotel where
he and his wife were stopping they saw
,;a handsome display of lace gowns. The
- lady was charmed. The seller gave the
Usual argument of cheapness : because
.of no duty,;:.Tbe man bought gown
' for Ms wife, paying $400 for It
"They smuggled it into the country
not declaring it at the custom house.
1 A month or two later the wife wore the.
4 gown to a bridge club and. like most
", smuggling ladles, she couldn't keep the
secret, and she boasted about it. One
f toer dear friends told the local ol
lector, who told the special agents, who
1 palled and seised the gown. Tears from
.the lady. Wild language from her Irate
huKhand.
"The first step after seizure was to
appraise the gown to fix a value basis
for assessing the duty. The gown was
'ubmltted to half a dozen experts in the
'lace tra(.Jt. And here ts the point: Of
the six estimates of the gown's value,
; vhe highest was $78 and the lpwest $0.
iThe value of 170 was finally fixed and
"the duty of 0 per cent, or $41 was paid
by the husband. At a penalty the bus
band was required to pay the gown's
value, or $70. So the $70 dress cost
him $511, and. the question of criminal
prosecution against both husband and
wife is still pending In the treasury
.department , .-.: "

have Journeyed from sfar to convince

K. J. Mueller's restoration of sight
Two persons traveled all the way from
Minneapolis for a personal visit with
Mrs. Mueller, who now sees perfectly
at the af e of 64, after being blind
most of the ttme since a child of 8.
She is the wife of a German-Lutheran
minister and Uvea at Bothell, near Se
attle. ,.
' VATUnVB OW1T BEHEST.
Buiphurro Is a natural remedy. It t
a liquid compound of sulphur, and the
man who succeeded In rendering sul
phur into liquid form is C. M. C. Stew
art. a chemist and pharmaceutical
druggist of more than a srore of years'
experience. Tt ha been bri the market
only since the beginning of last month
(January!, yet so great has been the
demand for It thai only now has It
been possible for him to let peeple out
side his immediate territory know its
And Buiphurro has had a most inter
esting story. Read of its discovery and
the strange tale of its. rise into a widely
known medicine: In 1898 Mr. Stewart,
having been a depp student of chem
istry and of medlolne. conceived the
ldea-of Jlqulfylng. sulphur as the best
means of getling a purifying element
of .recognised superiority directly Into
the blood.1 We was then In Iowa con
ducting a large business. The fact that
sulphur Is so widely used for purifying
sick rooms, destroying germsrf tcr, con
vinced him that the idea should be de
veloped to the end. ' - ' ' ,. '
Many previous attempts had been
made to render sulphur into a liquid,
but these had been successful ohjy to
the extent of holding the sulphrtr in
suspension temporarily. It was merely
dissolved, not liquified. '
A year and a half Mr. Stewart worked
on his problem, and at lnt produced a
liquid of rich, cherry-cordial hue. But
he felt the call of the Klondtke; Which
was sweeping over the Jend at that
time, and went North without doing
anything more with the sulphur prepa
ration, - . .
Bight'-' years Mr. " Stewart spent In
Alaska-and the-Canadlan Yukon. He
returned to Seattle, and Invested his
means . In such a way as to permit his
retirement from active business life. It
was in Januarv of 1911 that a member
of his own family was suffering: se
verely from stomach disorders and
rheumatism. , lt ,1' ,
"I'll prepare some of the liquid sul
phur compound and am sure it will do
vou good." said Mr. Stewart. Acting
at once, he revived his old preparation.
It worked wonders in the way Of re
lieving the stomach trouble and rheu
matism, and friends of the famllv. hear
ing of the cure. Immediately asked for
a supply to relieve their own dis
tress. . , '
That's the way an endless chain be
gan. Friends came in numbers, as the
story of Buiphurro came .to be known,
and friends of friends followed. Mr.
Stewsrt watched each Individual -case,
and found that in every Instance, where
his directions had been followed, the
rures were prompt and complete at had
been the ease In his own home.
The requests for Sulnhurro became
more and' more numerous through last
summer until Mr; Stewart had to limit
his receiving days to two a week, then
to one a week and on the last day that
he held open house the people marched
to his home as if going to a great
meeting, and by actual count between
Ha and too- were supplied wun meal
Mr, Stewart estimates that In the
year during which he gave away Bui
phurro he distributed it among more
than 8000 people and that ne gave away
upwards of $10,000 worth of the medi
cine. He ws. forced either to put It
on the market or to hie himself away
u - V, . nnVAf inA Vi OM rd nf him nr
of his medicine. The good which Bui
phurro would aeeompusn immediately
outweighed- every other consideration,

SIGHTLESS EYES ARE

Liquid Sulphur Compound Per
forms Remarkable Cure for
Bothell Minister's Wife.
BLIND AT 8 YEARS OLD
Happy Woman, in Interview for
This Newspaper, Tells How C.
M, C. Stewart's Wonderful Dis
. covery Brought Back Faculty
After Years of Suffering and
Deprivation.
"Seattle Feb. 84. Among " the most
remarkable of Sulphurro cures' was its
restoration of sight for- Mrs. T. ' J,
Mueller, wife of a venerable Lutheran
minister of Bothell, near Seattle.
; To hear Mrs. Mueller's story from her
own lips makes the tears well up in
one's eyes, so pitiful was her blindness,
and so Joyous Is she in the recover; of
her sight Ever since she was 8 years
old had her sight been affected, and
now she is S4. During, the intervening
years she had not more than brief In
tervals ja hett aha could, aee.
Once, after an operation on her eyes,
performed by one of the best-known
American specialists, her. vision wsi
lared-and ahe-waa able to-walk out
in the garden and admire the flowers
and the sunshine. But when the min
went down Mrs. Mueller's, sight went
wun u, and years or darkness and sut
fering followed.
Mrs. Mueller had no thought that she
would ever be able to see again, when
she visited Mr. Stewart's home, on the
arm of her ever-attendant husband. She
had became of late years a sufferer
from rheumatism. She heard that Mr.
Btewart had made a medical discovery
by liquefying sulphur in an original
compound, and she sought the remedy
as relief from har rheumatism. .
. Mr. Stewart did not even promise that
relief. He gave her a bottle of the prepa
ration, hoping it would lessen her suf
fering, and he asked that she let hire
know what progress she made. He sym
pathised deeply with her In the afflic
tion -of her blindness and secretly
wished that it might be in his power
to restore her sight
- When MfsrMueller again visited the
Stewart home, not long after, her rheu-.
matlam was gone, and she needed no
guide for her footsteps; her lost sight
had returned.
But let Mrs. Mueller tell the story.
As joyful as a girl of 1, she fairly
bubbles over with exultation as she re
cites her experiences:
"For more than 17 ars I was blind
in one eye, and 16 years in the other.
Bometimes only could I tell the differ
ence between daylight and darkness,
and much of the time I had to spend in
a darkened - room. I thought we had
tried every possible cure, and I had
settled down to the not pleasant thought
that I never could see again.., That
thought now makes me shudder. ' ,
"When I was only I years old I uf
fered from fever. That was where I was
born, on the Island of Lananess, off
Bchleswlg-Holsteln, in the North Sea.
The fever settled in my eyes, and I was
kept for months in a darkened room.
The doctors hardly knew what to say
about the case, 'One ot the specialists
that' examined me wanted- to take out
one of the eyes, hut my father would
not let, him.-...- , '.''; ,
"Bometimes I could see a little in the
years that followed. Then, 23 years ago
I came to America to marrv Mr. Muel.
rr"'W1ioadTOme-'toAmerlca1efore
me.- In Napoleon, Ind., he had a small
church. A year after, in 1890, we moved
to Lanesville, Ind., and there I was to
tally blind, though I learned to be so
proficient with my fingers that I could
make rtresse for my baby without tno
sense of sight '. ! . . ,
V
'., ' i " 1
"We had not much money. My hus
band saw some doctors,, hut they said
they could do nothing- for me. Rheu
matism of the eyes, they said it was.
My brother went to Louisville to see a
doctor there, and when this man said
he could help me, my brother said he
would pay the expenses of my trip.
"When the doctor examined my eyes
he told me yes. lie could cure me. But
to Mr. Mueller he said, whispering, that
there was no hope. '
'The next morning he cerformed the
operation. When it was over I could
see as I had not been able to see be
fore since I was a child. It was beau
tiful, and I was so happy."
Mrs. Mueller trembled as she told of
that operation, and smiled with happy
recollection at the "thought of walking
about in- th-doctor's - flower - garden
wnen it was over, jaut ner lace dark
ened again. . .
"In the afternoon a strange feeling
came over my eves, and bv the time the
sun went aown i was as Diina as l naa
been the day before, ' she said. " "
In 1 SOT. at Omaha. Mrs. Mueller was
taken to a specialist of note, and for a
time had partial return of vision. 'Com
ing to Seattle two years later, the af
fliction grew worse. Specialists here
diagnosed the case aa or. cataractal for
mation. "I heard through a friend of Mr,
Stewart how Buiphurro was curing
rheumatism, so Mr. Mueller and I went
to his home to set some of the medi
cine," shs continued. "I followed his
directions implicitly, taking the prepa
ration internally and bathing in It with
great regularity. The hot bathing
water i pourea upon my eyes, ror gnxa
seemea to relieve tne pain
"About seven weeks after I began
taking Mr. Stewart a uquld compound
At midnight I had the sensation of
oemg , able to see into the adjoining
room. I scarcely knew whether it was
real or not. Yet the idea ef seeing did
not excite me aa much as I would now
expect.
"I went' to sleep, and the next morn
ing got up as usual and went out for
breakfast Still 1 seemed. to be able to
distinguish some obiects around me.
My daughter says she, saw a film roll
oacK xrom my eyes.
"When a neiahbor woman passed the
house and called to me, I surprised her
by telling her the color of her dress
and the number of buttons on her
waist. .Then I realised that my sight
had returned, and I was like a girl
again in my joy,
"The first thing I thought of was to
let Mr. Stewart know of my good for
tune, and when I saw him he was as
pleased aa I. It was truly wqnqenut
"Sulnhurro is the greatest medicine
that was ever discovered," declared
Mrs. Mueller, "and to my dying aay i
shall be thankful to rt ana to Air.
Stewart"
Seeine- has riven Mrs. Mueller a new
pleasure in living. It has made her
so hanpy she can hardly control her
joy. Her case haa attracted wide at.
tention, and all Bothell is rejoicing with
her at her recovery. Her clear, blue
eyea look so strong and well now, and
she gases at one with such directness
that It is hard to believe those eame
eyes have been sightless for the greater
part or their nretirae,

ECZEMA'S CURE
IS DISCOVERED
DWIIURRO
J. E. Shannon, Widely Known in
Seattle, Tells of Wonderful
Discovery.

Only Three Weeks Needed to
Drive Rheumatism Out of Sys

Man Who Was Pitifully Help
less. ..... ..!'..
Eciema is a disease that has caused
tremendous suffering the world around.
Its cure at last has been discovered
6ulphurro, ...
Almost every known medicine has
been applied in cases of ecxema, but
usually with indifferent success. The
causes lie so . deeply enrooted In tho
Diooa mat it is most aiiricuit to reacn
and expel them, : ,
J. E. Shannon, who la serving hit
third term as constable In King coun
ty, and i assigned to Judge Gordon's
court, in the Prefontaln building, Seat
tle, will testify his thanks to Sulphurro
the remainder of his days. He says It
cured him completely of one of the
most severe cases of ecxema that ever
tortured a' sufferer. Mr, Shannon . is
well known- te Seattle's law officers,
to attorneys and to member of the
nollce department '
' "Mr case was hereditary, 1 often
true of ecxema." said Mr. Shannon.
"For years and years -1 nad bought
soma remedy that would give relief,
J. K. SHANNON
but the results were far from satis,
factory. 8o badly was I afflicted witK
it that at times I hated to leave my
home and g upon the street . , s
Suluhur Zntrodnoed .Into Blood.' T"
"I had all hot given up hope that! I
ever would be relieved : when I heard
Of Mr,. .jStewart't LJquid Sulphur prep
aration.. Mr. Stewart waa then giving
It away to sufferers from far and near,
no matter what the ailment. The idea
that sulohur In' liauid form could be
Introduced directly into the blood made
me hopeful that in my rase it would
produce a beneficial result. Such -a
cleansing, purifying element aa sul
phur, it seemed to me, would be most
likely to get right at , the seat of my
trouble. . i. ...
"Mr. Stewart promised nothing, hut
expressed the belief that if I woull
follow, directions carefully Sulphnro
would help me. I took a bottle home
and lost no time in getting the treat
ment started. Almost immediately I
detected an improvement and within
Short period I was greatly benefited.
It was only a matter of weeks until
my cure was complete, with every
Indication of its being permanent"
Seattle and Tacoma are full of these
diabetes, stomach' disorder, asthma,
throat troubletn fact,- almost any ali
ment that the flesh ls4peir to, yields be
fore the power ef Sulphurro. Lots and
lots of Tactim women are taking Sul-
Fhurro to clear tip'their complexions and
reshen their skins. -" Removing the Im
purities In the blood and system, Sul
phurro puts one in the best of phys
ical condition. .
; Wonderful Cures of Rheumatism.
Chap of severe 'i attacks of rheu

There comes to . mind the case of .t

Seattle who was many weeks In bed,
Inflammatory rheumatlwm distorting
his limbs and body and plaolng , him
In excruciating pain.
- ""I could not touch my face: flat on
my back. I was so he!plfs that my
wife had to tie a little stick to .one
hand so that I could scratch my noen,''
said he. "TliHt mav sound funny tit.
