" The " Cruel Knife! It is absolutely useless to expect n Burgical operation to cure cancer, or any other blood disease. The cruelty of such treatment is illustrated in the alarming number of deaths which re sult from it. The disease is in the blood, and hence can not bo cut out. Nine times out of ten the surgeon's knife only hastens death. My son had n most malignant Cancer, tot rhich tho doctors said au operation was the onlyhoco. Thoopor- ution vrss a severe one, as It xras neces l.iry to cut down to the jawbone and eerapo It. Before a preat while the Can cer returned, and l? to grow rapidly. We jtstc him many remedies without re lief, and nnallr, upon the advice 01 a friend, decided to tnr S. S. S. (Swift's Brjeciiie). and withi bepan to iraprove. After twenty bottles had been taken, the Cancer disappeared entirely, and he was cured. The cure was a permanent one. for he is now seventeen years old. and ha never had a sign of the drendlul disease to re turn. J. S. Musdoch, 579 Snodgrass St., Dallas, Texas. Absolutely the only hope for Cancel is Swift's Specific, Tor UI-aJ .The as it is tho only remedy which goes to the very bottom of tho blood ami forces out every trace of the disease. 8. S. S. is guaranteed purely vegetable, and contains no potash, mercury, or other mineral. Books on Cancer will be mailed free to any address by the Swift Specific Co., Atlanta, Ga. HORTICULTURAL BOARD. The Benefit of Npraytn Trult Trees Conclusively Drumus t rated. At the meeting of the State Board of Horticulture, winch was hold in Port land Tuesday, the elficieiier of spraying fruit trees for the extermination of the codhn moth was most conclusively dem onstrated. Most satisfactory results, it was shown, were produced where the spray was properly prepared, and the spraying persisted in. Ollwell Brce., of New York, who have ICO acres of apple trees, epray them systematically five 'times during the season, and have se- cured OS per cent of clean fruit thereby, onlv 2 per c;nt contain'm" worms. Thev eo!d $H,000 worth of npples lust year. H, C. Savers, of Iiood Itiver, reported, as the result of thorough spraying, the securing of 95 per cent of clean fruit, 'with only 5 per cent showing vroriue. E. L. Smith, of Hood River, reported also 03 psr cent ol clean fruit as the re an!t o' systematic spraying. LaSalie Bros., of Albany, who have fifty acres uf apple trees, by persistent spraying saved 90 percent of their fruit. Many others reported tqually satisfac tory results from following this plan All these fruit-raisers Lave used the particular spray recommended bv the board, and, in view of such testimony, the conclusion was unavoidably reached that the contention tha spraying is in effectual is fallacious as well as absurd.
