A SURPRISED PHYSICIAN.
A Dying Patient Recovers Through the
Interposition of a Humble German.
Chicago, Nov. 15.
Some weeks ago Dr. G , a very
reputable and widely known physician
living on C street, was called to at
tend a very complicated case of Rheu
matism. Upon arriving at the house
he found a man about forty years of
age, lying in a prostrated and serious
condition, with his whole frame danger
ously affected with the painful dis
ease. He prescribed for the patient,
but the man continued to grow worse,
and on Sunday evening he was found to
be in a very alarming condition. The
knees and elbows and larger joints
were greatly inflamed, and could not be
moved. It was only with extreme
difficulty that the patient could be
turned in bed, with the aid of three or
four persons. The weight of the
clothing was so painful that means had
to be adopted to keep it from the pa
tient's body.
The doctor saw that his assistance
would be of no avail, and left the house,
the members of the family following
him to the door, weeping. Almost im
mediately the griei stricken ones were
addressed by a humble German. He
had heard of the despair of the family
and now asked tbem to try his remedy,
and accordingly brought forth a bottle
of St. Jacobs Oil. The poor wife ap
plied this remedy. The first applica
tion eased the patient very much ; after
a few hours they used it again, and,
wonder ol wonders, the pain vanished
entirely! Every subsequent applica
tion improved the patient, and in two
days he was well and out. When the
doctor called a few days after he was
indeed surprised.

Eating Dicers,
And a source of worry, anxiety and endless trouble to those who are afflicted!
with them, particularly so when located upon the lower extremities whore
the circulation is weak and sluggish. A gangrenous eating ulcer upon the
leg is a frightful sight, and as the poison burrows deeper and deeper into the
tissue beneath and the sore continues to spread, one can almost see the flesh
melting away and feel the strength going out with the sickening discharges.
Great running sores and deep offensive ulcers often develop from a simple
boil, swollen gland, bruise or pimple nd are a threatening danger always,
because while all such sores are not cancerous, a great many are, and this
should make you suspicious of all chronic slow-healing ulcers and sores, par
ticularly if cancer runs in your family. Face sores are common and cause the
greatest annoyaHce because they are
so persistent and unsightly and de
tract from one's appearance.
Middle aged and old people and
those whose blood is contaminated
and tainted with the germs and poison
of malaria or some previous sickness,
or excessive use of mercury, are the
chief sufferers from chronic sores and
ulcers. While the blood remains in
this unhealthy, polluted condition
healing is simply impossible and the
sore will continue to grow and spread
in spite of washes and salves or any
superficial or surface trrjtment, for
the sore is but tbe outward sign of
some constitutional disorder, a bad
condition of the blood and system,
which local remdies cannot cure.
S. S. S. reaches these old chronic sores through the blood. It goes to the
very root of the trouble and counteracts and removes from the blood all the
impurities and poisons, and gradually builds up the entire system and
strengthens the sluggish circulation, and when the blood has been purified
blood purifier and tonic combined and a safe and permanent cure for chronic
sores and ulcers. If you have a slow-healing sore of any kind, large or
small, write us about it, and our physicians will advise you without charge.

PROFIT SHARING.
Experiment Tried on a Canadian
Street Railway.
The adoption of a practical system of
profit sharing by the street railway
company of Vancouver is an experiment
that will be of interest to all who watch
the development of our industrial sys
tem. The Independent, a weekly pub
lished in the interests of organized la
bor in Vancouver, B. C, gives a report
of an address by Manager Buntzen, of
the street railway company, to a mass
meeting of workmen, which was also
addressed by President Mahon, of the
Street Railway Men's Union of Ameri
ca. The meeting shows the harmonious
relations existing between the : street
railway" company and Its employes.
The company, has voluntarily decided
that the regular employes shall re
ceive as their share of its profits one
third of the amount available for divi
dends after the ordinary shareholders
have received 4 per cent This means,
as estimated, that at the end of the
first year each employe will receive
about $30; at the end of the second
year the share will be about $50, and
in five years it will be $100. The men
will receive the standard union wages.
Manager Buntzen Bays that in his opin
ion,' the Increased Interest in the com
pany's welfare on the part of the em
ployes created by the new system will
add so much to the company's success
that the shareholders,' as well as the
men, will gain by the Innovation.
The employes' proportion of the
profits will be divided equally among
them, all being considered as units in
making the company's business a suc
cess. " In addition to this voluntary
concession the company pays as high
wages for every class of work as are
paid by other local employers, and,
generally speaking, higher wages. The
company also makes certain conces
sions in the way of uniforms, light and
transportation, that employers in other
lines, of business are not in a position
to grant It is customary to look for
rocks In the way of all such industrial
experiments. Men do not work for
low- wages, nor under unfavorable con
ditions, voluntarily, but because they
are forced to do so by the conditions
of the labor market The model em
ployer, the man who voluntarily does
more than be is forced to do, because
he sees that there is something wrong
and that the men are entitled to more, is
worthy of all honor. One of the diffi
culties of such a scheme is that employ
ment with him acquires an economic
value . which the workmen may be
forced to pay to middlemen or Inter
mediaries. But it is time enough to look
for such trouble when it begins to de
velop. A good relationship and a feel
ing of mutual interest have a value that
cannot be accurately estimated in dol
lars, and these have been secured al
ready by the Vancouver Street Rail
way Company. We may learn some day
that an honest desire to do right can
cure most of the industrial evils of mod
era society. Toronto Globe.
WHERE WHEAT IS GROWN
United States, Ruaaia and France the
Greatest Raisers in the. World.
Some of the great wheat-growing
countries are scarcely ever referred to
as large raisers of this cereal simply
because, needing the grain at home,
they export very little. Italy, Germany
and Spain, for example, all grow far
larger quantities than Argentina or
Australia, but we hear little about their
wheat because they consume practical
ly all of it at home. Much is written
about the wheat crops of Argentina and
Australia because they are contributors
to the general commerce in wheat,
though, as a rule, twelve countries each
produce more wheat than Australia and
ten countries surpass Argentina in an
nual yield.
It would take about all the wheat of
Australia to make the macaroni that
Italy . manufactures from her home
wheat supply, with a great surplus left
for bread. Argentina would have to in
crease her product about fivefold to
raise the amount of wheat grown in
France, which ranks third among the
world's producers. It is easy to forget
that France Is surpassed only by the
United States and Russia in wheat pro
duction, for her great crop does not
supply her need, and she Is a wheat
buying country. A little over forty
years ago rye bread was the staple food
of the French peasantry, but most of
them have since joined the wheat-eaters,
with the result that the people can
not raise all the wheat they need.
France's average crop Is usually
about one-third larger than that of In
dia, whose wheat seems to attract more
attention than France's harvest for no
other reason apparently than because
in good crop years India is expected to
help supply the deficiency of Europe.
Except In famine years India has
from 12,000,000 to 35,000,000 bushels of
export wheat grown in our winter
months, when the climate in the best
wheat districts Is usually as cool, at
least, as a Minnesota summer. Though
India is the fourth largest grower, the
wheat crop is far inferior In Importance
either to the rice of the lowlands or the
millet of the drier plateau of the Dec
can, these two grains being the great
staples of vegetable food. There is an
export tax on rice because the country
needs all It grows, but the ability to
help supply Europe with wheat bread is
a boon to the farmers of the Punjab, for
which they have to thank the Suez
canal. They could not send wheat to
Europe as long as it was necessary to
double the Cape of Good Hope passing
through" the tropics both in the Indian
ocean and the Atlantic, but steamship
transportation through the canal made
a new source of breadstuffs, tributary
to Europe, and Indian export wheat is
one of the most conspicuous illustra
tions of the influence a great ship canal
may exert upon the economic conditions
of a country.

"Do it now," said Dr. W. A. Wise,

ing of getting one's teeth attended to.
The doctor used the widely famous
saying of the late Rev. Dr. Maltbie V.
Babc-ock, who put all fashionable New
York in a fever of immediate intention
to do right by simply repeating his
sound advice to always "do it now."
when anyone thought of performing a
good act.
."The many obstacles that long pre
vented people from taking proper care
of their teeth have been almost entire
ly removed by modern methods," con
tinued Dr. Wise.- "The expense is
very moderate. The pain is absolutely
nothing. Prosperity reigns everywhere
and there is scarcely anyone too poor
to afford having bad teeth extracted
and serviceable new ones put in. Falro
teeth, as we make them, cannot be told
from natural ones, and the wearer can
eat about as well as ever after a little
practice. Everybody with good teeth
should offer up a prayer of thankful
ness and go immediately to a good
dentist and have the teeth examined
so as to be sure there are no beginnings
of decay apparent. Take the troubles
at their incBption and only a little
work is necessary. And at all events,
no matter how far teeth troubles have
gone, go immediately and once have
I your teeth put in perfect order. After
1 that it is an easy matter to watch them
' and keep them permanently in good
1 order.
"Ihe whole sermon is well summed
in Dr. Babcock's words 'do it now.'
"We claim that there are no facili
ties for dental work in the Northwest
superior to what we offer at our offices
in the Failing builidng, Portland, Or.
We have thousands of patients and are
