ALCATRAZ IMMUNE.
There Is one place within pistol shot
of ruined San Francisco that the
earthquake did not touch, that did
not lose a chimney or feel a tremor
Alcatraz island.
Despite the fact that the island Is
covered with brick buildings, brick
forts and brick chimneys, not a brick
was loosened, not a crack made nor a
quiver felt.
When the scientist comes to write
he will have tils hands full explaining
why Alcatraz did not have any physi
cal knowledge of the event.
The scene from the island was awe
inspiring. The crashing of a falling
city filled the ears of the aroused
island, but no one understood what It
was all about. 1
There was no earthquake that he
knew of, yet the city, a few hundred
yards across the bay, was crushing to
ruin. No man on the Island knew
what was the matter until the boat
landed at the shuttered, wharves.-Scrlpps-McKae

INDIAN' HUMOR.

lawyer of that city, who was former
ly Judge of a western district. One
night Thomas found himself In a
shabby town which had no hotel
Desiring to slay all night, he asked
a lounger In front of a grocery store
where he might find accommodations,
The lounger went Inside of the store,
which was run by an Indian, When
Informed that t' ere was a man otit
side who wanted a place to spend the
night, the Indian asked:
"Who Is the fellow?"
"Judge Thomas," was the reply.
"We'll, if that is the fellow, he had
better pay mc what he owes me be
fore asking for any favors."
"How Is that?" eiuerled the lounger.
"Is he In debt to you?"
"Yes," replied the Indian. "When
he was Judge at Muskogee I was
brought before him for selling lleUor.
I was convicted and In sentencing me
he said. 'I will give you 60 days in
Jail and $100.' I got the 60 days all
right, but he never came across with

THE PLAGUE
OF WINTER
Every Catarrh sufferer dreads the return of cold wenther, for at the first
cold breath of the season this plague of Winter is fanned into life with all
Us miserable symptoms. The nostrils are stopped up, and a constant drop
pine of mucus back tnto the throat keeps up a continual hawkm? and spit
tin, the patient has dull headaches, ringing noises in the ears and a half
sick, depressed feelinpf all the time. Kvery inner lining and tissue of the
body becomes inflamed, and secretes an unhealthy matter which is absorlied
into the blood and distributed to all parts of the body, and the disease be
comes constitutional. The catarrhal poison brines on stomach troubles
affects the Kidneys and Bladder, attacks the soft bones of the throat and
head and if not checked leads to Consumption. A disease so deep-seated
and dancerous cannot be washed out, neither can it be smoked away
Sprays, washes, inhalations, etc., are useless, because they only reach the
membranes and tissues, while the real cause of the disease is in the blood
S. S. S. cures Catarrh because it attacks it through the blood; it goes into
the circulation and drives out all unhealthy accumulations and catarrhal
matter, and when this is done every part of the system receives a supply of
rich, pure blood. Then the inflamed mem
branes and tissues heal, all discharge ceases
the depressed feeling of the body is relieved, nnl
every symptom passes away. h. fa. 5s. goes t
the very root of the trouble, and by purifying
and enriching the blood and building up the
entire system, cures Catarrh permanently. If
you have Catarrh do not waste time with local remedies, but begin S. S. S
and write tor our book and any medical advice without charge.
