The healthy color of the skin is piven to it' by the millions of little ted corpuscles in the blood. These are the carriers of nourishment, health and strength to all parts of the body in other words the very life of the blood. When the genus of Malaria get into this vital fluid they destroy these corpuscles and rob the blood of its rich, lifes-ustaiiiing qualities, ren dering it thin, weak and watery and unaMe to supply the system with the needed strength to resist disease. Then the symptoms cf Malaria such as pale, sallow complexions, weak vitality, poor appetite, deranged digestion, a general "let down" condition of the system, and perhaps chills and slight fever, show that this insidious disease is gradually affecting the entire health. Malaria must be removed from the system through the circulation, and the medicine to accomplish this is S. S. S. It n,t only cleanses the blood of all Impure, unhealthy matter, but rids the system of Malaria, and restores the blood to a strong, healthy condition. S. S. S., besides removing the germs of Malaria, builds up and gives tone and vigor to the entire system by its fine tonic effects. Malaria is a blood discr.se, and S. S. S. cures it because it is a perfect blood purifier. Book on the blood and anv medical advice without charse. THE SWIFT SPCIF15 CO., A 7LANTA, GA.

Ctilllnan Diamond May Come to Colo- rnrio. The biggest diamond In the world b'tter known as the Ctilllnan gem. may come Into the possession of a resident of Colorado. ny the Den ver Pot. Bees C. Vidler. of Colora do Springs, who heads a syndicate of Fncllsh capitalists, holds an option on the rtone. and In the event that the deal goes fhrnugh Jhe sum of J2.000, Ofli in cash will be paid for the same. The gem was found In the Tremler mine, near Pretoria, by a Mr. Wells, the surface manager. The stone was imbedded in the yellow ground abont 1! feet from the surface and was dis covered on January 25. t!"i5. Its ex rut weight Is .102 1 karats, or one and seven-ninths pounds troy. The dimensions are about 4x4tAxlVi Inches. The gem Is said to be only a por tion of r much larger stone, the orig inal size of which Is a matter of con lecture. Four pieces of the original have been broken off aiong cleavage planes, which are known to have the position of octahedral planes. Each of these fragments were undoubtedly of considerable size. The stone, according to the descrip tion given bv experts, is quite color less. It perfect transparence being best compared to that of pure Ice of the variety known as hyalite. There value of the stone as a gem. It Is the purest of all the big dia monds and has an appraised value of ?5. 000.000, while the Insurance for protection costs f 15.000 a year. So far. It has been Impossible to find a turcnaser at the appraised value, as no one cares about parting with mil lions Just for the honor of porsesslng a stone that would keep their lives In deadly peril. ( When Mr.' Vilder was In England a few months ago, he was attracted by the pureness of the gem and as a result succeeded In organizing a syn dlcate which bid for an option at the agreed price of 12.000.000. The option does not expire for several months as yet, and It would be no surprise to learn any day that the final transfer had been made and the stone trans- ferred to the United States. WALLA WALLA DOOMED. General I'nnston Says No Brigade Post for Garden City. Gene-al Funston while stopping at the Portland hotel was Interlewed by a reporter for the Bulletin regarding the possibility of the establishment of a brigade post in Walla Walla: Impossible," exclaimed the gener al. "I recommended the abandonment of Fort Walla Walla two years ago, but owing to local pressure on the government the post was retained. Since new barracks have been built I do not think It likely that the gov ernment will dispose of Its present quarters at Walla Walla, but when you speak of a brigade post I can positively stute that such a thing Is altogether out of the question." "Where Is It likely to bo establish ed?" the general was asked. "At American Lake. There we have 70,000 acres for target practice, unlimited display and maneuver grounds that cannot be surpessed. An acre of that land could be bought at the low figure of $10 per acre and the government could make no better Investment. Walla Walla has no grounds, the roads are so muddy In winter that Colonel Godfrey told me he was unable to exercise his troops during three months. Then again In summer It Is too hot and altogether the Idea is preposterous. But It does not follow that the present post will be abandoned." General Greely, also stopping at the Portland, fully agreed with these views and deplored political Interfer ence In the military management of this country. Read the East Oregonlan.

This will especially op ply to churches which are usod for secular purposes, such as concerts, lectures, entertainments and the like, for which an admission fee Is charged, says a Portland paper. County Assessor D. B. Slgler Is Is suing notices to pastors of all the churches In the county to that effect. Ho declares this action Is taken In ac cordance with the state law which says that all houses of public wor ship shall be exempt from taxation when used exclusively for public wor ship or for schools, but when used for other purposes they shall be taxed upon the cash valuation thereof the same as personal property, and the taxes shall be collected In the same manner as taxes on personal property Assessor Sigler's attention was re cently called to the situation.

Recontly the practice of holding en tertainments in the churches und col lecting admission fees has been wide spread. In many Instances operatic performances have been given In 'hurdles. ' It Is said that owners of theaters and halls have pbjectert to the exemp tion of churches. They do not think It fair to them, as they have to pay taxes and maintain their buildings, to permit church organizations, which pay no taxes, to rob them of their bus iness. Assessor Slgler has determined to pWce the mall on the same footing. If the churches open their doors for such entertainments, taxes will be exacted. If such practices are not allowed in the churches, no assessment on the property will be made. He has no objection to entertainments In churches If no admission fee Is exact ed. "I only desire to be Just." said he today. "I think It no more than right for churches to pay taxes If they are rented for purposes of public enter tainment." , War Against Consumption, All nations are endeavoring to check the ravages of consumption, the "white plague" that claims so many victims each year.
