Sores and Ulcers never become chronic unless the blood is in poor condition is sluggish, weak and unable to throw off the poisons that accumulate in it. The system must be relieved of the unhealthy matter through the sore, and great danger to life would follow should it heal before tbe blood has been made pure and healthy and all impurities eliminated from the sys tem. S. S.S. begins the cure by first cleans ing and invigorating the blood, building tip the general health and removing from in J!wm A CONSTANT DRAIN Xem UPON THE SYSTEM. When this has been accomplished the dis charge gradually ceases, and the sore or nicer heals. It is the tendency of these old indolent sores to grow worse and worse, and eventually to destroy the bones. Local applications, while soothing and to some extent alleviate pain, cannot reach the seat of the trouble. S. S.S. does, and no matter bow apparently hopeless your condition, even though your constitution has broken down,, it will bring relief when nothing else can. It supplies the rich, pure blood necessary, to heal the sore and nourish the debilitated, diseased body. Mr. J. B. Talbert, Lock Box 14s, Winona, Miss, says: " Six years ayo my leg from the knee ta tbe foot was one solid sore. Several physicians treated me and I made two trios to Hot Snriiura. but found no relief. I was induced to try S. a. S., and it made a complete cure. I have been a per. fectly well man ever since." is tne only purely veg etable blood purifier known contains no poisonous minerals to ruin the digestion and add to, rather than relieve your suffer ings. If your flesh does not heal readily when scratched; bruised or cut, your blood is in bad condition, and any ordinary sort Is apt to become chronic.

Cm - TT11 iia HIGH EXPLOSIVES Do Not Hart Armor When They Burst on tbe Bur face. Experiments undertaken by the Uni ted States Government expressly to test the theory that if a sufficiently large amount of high explosive can be detonated against or In close proximity to a battleship, tbe battleship will be, to use the pet term of promoters, anni hilated, have proved that it is abso lutely false. On one occasion, a Harveylzed steel plate, representing the side armor of the United States battleship Kearsarge, was tested by tbe detonation of 307 pounds of guncotion, which was sus pended for the purpose immediately in front of the plate. Instead of being blown Into theoretical "thousands' of fragments," the plate was undisturbed, and a slight and harmless scoring on the face ofThe plate was the only evi dence, so far as the armor was con cerned, of the explosion. Of four chick ens placed either Immediately behind the plate, or within from twenty-five to fifty feet of the guncotton, two sur vived without the slightest sign of be ing Injured; one was killed by a flying fragment of a shell (a result which does not affect the argument), and only one appeared to have died from shock. Frof. Alger, the greatest expert In this country, or probably in any country, on this very question, says: "This ex periment would seem completely to dis pose of the theory that a high-explosive shell of very large capacity will blow In the side of an armored vessel if It exploded against It;" and he further says that "the velocity of the shell would add materially nothing to the effect of a detonation, the rush of whose gases is determined by a pres sure of hundreds of tons per square inch." -It Is the opinion of Prof. Alger and every ordnance expert the world over that for a high explosive to be effective it must be carried by the shell through the armor, and burst within the hull of the ship Itself. This conclusion was strikingly borne out by the experiments on tne Belleisle, made early in the present year. The high-explosive shells were burst upon contact with the ar mor, and left no further trace than a harmless star splash on the outside of the ship. Scientific American. CHLOROFORM. Wa First Used on a Dentist's Appren tice in Jsainbnrsh. An apprentice to the Edinburgh an p. geon-dentist, Mr. Imlach, named T. D. Morrison, was the first Datient in tin. gland to take chloroform. It was on tne 10th of November. 1847. at 1 n m In 'the house, 55Queen street, Edin burgh, that Prof. Simpson administered tne cniorororm to this young man. Six weeks before that Mr. Morrison had taken ether in order to have a tooth ex tracted, and when he desired rn (intra another tooth pulled he was told of the discovery of a new anaesthetic by Prof. sampson. ana asked If he would submit to the test Mr. Morrison, arter reflect ing for a few minutes on the blessings this discovery might bring to suffering numanity, decided to run the risk. This was about 10 in the moraine-, and the operation was fixed to take place at 1 o'clock in the afternoon in the of a number of scientific men. Mr. Morrison wrote a letter to Prof. Simn- son freeing him from any responsibility if there should be any accident or in the event of death. - The anaesthetic proved efficacious in about one minute, and Mr. Morrison soon recovered, and he Is still proud of the fact that he was isimpson s first patient under chloro form. During the fifty odd years since then Mr. Morrison as a dentist has ad ministered chloroform to more than 20,000 cases without a single accident Benefit of Pnre Air. House air, with its manv imnurities. overheated condition and general lifef lessness is one of the principal predis posing causes to colds and catarrhal affections. Elderly DeoDle and nth era who may be temporarily house-bound ana prevented from enjoying a regular daily stroll outdoors can devise a fair substitute as follows. Bundle un as if for the usual constitutional, select a large sunny room, preferably at the top of the house, open wide the windows. shut off the heat and move around briskly, going to the window and in halinc the fresh air deenlv through tha nostrils. Deeo inhalations rtf air nt the open window, taken gently through the nose, impart an enlivening and tonic influence to the whole nervous svstem. which can soon be demonstrated by a personal experiment " A Novel Form of Gaming. One of the amusements of the Bel gian artisan is rather curious. He keeps a special cock for crowing, and the bird which can outcrow its fellows has reached the highest pinnacle of per fection. The mode of operation is to place the cages containing the roosters in long rows, for it appears that one bird sets the other off crowing. . A I marker appointed by the organizers of the show is told off for each bird, his 1 duty being to note carefully the num- ber of crows for which it is responsible 1 In the same fashion as the laps are re corded in a bicycle race. The custom- 1 ary duration of the match Is one hour, i the winner being the bird which scores I the highest number of crows in the al lotted time. Russian Barbarity Nerves Japanu We Japanese should derive a lesson from the stories of Russian barbarity, ' We sincerely hope that no such nnto- I ward event will come to pass, but we must always be prepared for a conflict with Russia. None can positively say 1 that a Russian war Is a nightmare of the weak. Who knows? It may occur I at any time. If it really occurs we 1 Japanese one and all must prepare our selves to conquer or die. It Is far bet ter for us to perish as a nation by our , own hands than to be tortured and then 1 slaughtered in a wholesale manner by our savage enemy.

How a woman lies about the man she is going to marry I TRADE IS SATISFACTORY. Pacific Coast and the South Show Up Best ' Slight Diminution of Exports. Brads trcet's says: Despite some ir regularities in reports from different sections and industries, tracte as a whole is of satisfactory volume for tnis time of year. Relatively the beet reports come from the Pacific coast, the South and the Southwest, where the spring demand is opening well. Unseasonable weather in some sec tions, notably tbe East, has been a bar to activity in retail trade. Special ac tivity has been noted in some branches of the iron trade and sentiment has been, on the whole, helped by a clearer view ot the possibilities contained in the recent "war talk." The quieting down of business abroad naturally points to some diminution of our ex port trade, in the cruder forms of iron and steel, copper and lumber, but for finished products of these and other staples, the outlook is declared to be still satisfactory. A -leature in the export line this week was tbe shipment of 3,000 tons of steel, billets to Glas gow from Bir-ningham, Ala., the largest shipment of this material ever sent abroad from tbe South. Hevya quantities of railway material to re place that, destroyed " in China may be placed in this countrv.

Although every one has his feet measured for shoes, there are very few persons who know what the sizes marked upon tbe shoe stick mean. There are two shoe sticks in use in America and Europe. The stick nsed in the United States was originally English, and Is still used in England. The rest of Europe uses the French stick. The sizes on the English shoe stick were derived from the length of a bar ley corn, and they run three to the Inch. The first mark on the stick, or size 1. is made arbitrarily. Just four and one-half Inches from the upright Why this distance was fixed upon does not appear to be known. For some oth er reason which can only be guessed at the graduated part of the stick Is again divided into"" two sets of numbers. These numbers begin at 1 and run up to 13, and then they begin again at 1 and run up to 13. Tbe first numbers from 1 to 5 are .known as Infants' sizes, those from 6 to 10 as children's, from 11 to 2 as misses' sizes, from 2 to 6 as women's,1 and from T"t'-"13 as men's sizes; ' . '- : - . . , The French shoe stick is divided Into a great many more sizes than the Eng lish, and tbe French shoemaker sub divides these again, as is done with the English sticks,' into half, sizes. There is no exact relationship between the markings on tbe two -Sticks, but tbe French size 16 .corresponds to the English infants'" 1. and their size 44 is the same as the. English size 10 for men. ' A woman who wears a 2 shoe by English measure would get a 34 or 35 by the French measure, and a man with a 7 foot by English measure would wear a 40 shoe In France.. .Over here the width .of .the- shoe Is desig nated by a letter, while the" French use figures. Tbe width AAA is the French 000. B is the French 1 and EE Is the French 5 width. New York Sun. Th 1 Boy Who Lives Next Door.
