H lirOMC still ci Ulcsrs upo Nothing is a source of so much trouble as an old sore or ulcer, particu larly when located upon the lower extremities where 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, and 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, particularly if can cer runs in your family. Face sores are common and cause the greatest annoyance uecause iney are so per sistent and unsightly and detract so much from one's personal 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, are the chief sufferers from chronic sore3 and ulcers. While the blood remains in an unhealthy, polluted condition heal ing is impossible, and , the sore will continue to grow and spread in spite of washes and salves or any superficial or surface treatment, for the sore is but the outward sign of some constitu tional disorder, a. bad condition of the blood and system which local remedies cannot cure. A blood purifier and tonic is what vou need. Some thing to cleanse the blood, restore its lost properties quicken the circula tion and invigorate the constitution, and S. S. S. is just such a remedy. 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 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, external or internal, write us about it, and our physicians will advise you without charge.

Have you heard the story that gossips tell Of Burns of Gettysburg? No? Ah, well ; . Brief is the glory that hero earns, Briefer is the story of poor John Barns; He was the fellow who won renown The only man who didn't back down When the rebels rode through his native town; , But held his own in the fight next day, When all his townsfolk ran away. That was in July, sixty-three, The very day that General Lee, Flower of Southern chivalry, Baffled and beaten, backward reeled From a stubborn Meade and a barren field. . I might tell you how, but the day before, John Burns stood at his cottage door, Looking down the village street, Where, in the shade of his peaceful vine, He heard the low of his gathered kine, And felt their breath with incense sweet; Or I might say, when the sunset burned The old farm gable, be thought it turned The milk, that fell in a babbling flood Into the milk pail, red as blood, Or how he fancied the hum of bees Were bullets buzzing among the trees, But all such fanciful thoughts as these Were strange to a practical man like Burns, Who minded only his own concerns, Troubled no more by fancies fine Than one of his calm-eyed, long-tailed kine Quite old-fashioned and matter-of-fact, Slow to argue, but quick to act. That was the reason, aa some folks say, He fought so well on that terrible day. And it was terrible. On the right . Raged for hours the heady fight, Thundered the battery's double bass Difficult music for men to face; While on the left where nbw the graves Undulate like the living waves That all that day unceasing swept Up to the pits the rebels kept Round-shot plowed the upland glades, Sown with bullets, reaped with blades; Shattered fences here and there Tossed their splinters in the air; The very trees were stripped and bare; The barns that once held yellow grain Were heaped with harvest of the slain; The cattle bellowed on the plain, The turkeys screamed with might and main, And brooding barn-fowl left their rest With strange shells bursting in each nest. Just where the tide of battle turns, Erect and lonely stood old John Burns. How do you think. the man was dressed? He wore an ancient long buff vest, Yellow as saffron but, his best; And, buttoned over his manly breast, Was a bright-blue coat, with a rolling collar, And large gilt buttons size of a dollar With tails that the country-folk called "swaller." He wore a broad-brimmed, bell-crowned hat, White as the locks on which it sat. Never had such a sight been seen For forty years on the village green, Since old John Burns was a couatry beau, And went to the "quiltings" long ago. Close at his elbows all that day Veterans of. the Peninsula, Sunburnt and bearded, charged away; And striplings, downy of lip and chin Clerks that the Home Guard mustered In Glanced, as they passed, at the hat he wore, . - Then at the rifle his right hand bore; And hailed him, from out their youthful lore, With scraps of a slangy repertoire: "How are you. White Hat?" "Put her through." "Your head's level," and "Bully for - you!" Called him "Daddy"; begged he'd-disclose The name of the tailor who made his clothes, And what was the raluehe set on those; While Burns, unmindful of jeer and scoff. Stood there picking the rebels off With his long brown rifle, aud bell crown hat. And the swallow tails they were laugh ing at. 'T.was but for a moment, for that re spect Which clothes all courage their voices checked, And something the wildest could under stand . Spake in the old man's strong right hand: And his corded throat, and the lurking frown Of his eyebrows under his old bell-crown; Until, as they gazed, there crept an awe Through the ranks in whispers, and some men saw . In the antique vestments and long white hair - . The Past of the Nation In battle there; And some of the soldiers since declare That the gleam of his old white hat afar, Like the crested plume of the brave Na varre, . That day was the oriflamme of war. So raged the battle. You know the rest: How the rebels, . beaten and backward pressed, Broke at the final charge and ran. At which John Burns a practical man Shouldered his rifle, unbent his brows, And then went back to his bees and cows. This is the story of old John Burns. This is the moral the reader learns: In fighting the battle, the question's whether - . You'll show, a hat that's white, or r feather! Bret Harte. HAS LEFT HIS HIGH POST.

There are a good many people in love, and love leads to kisees. At least, if it does not immediately lead to kisses, it is usual that fond persons while conversing sit near each other. At such a time they can see whether each has a nice, white set of teeth or not. And it is more than likely that if either has neglected his, or her, t9eth, the resulting offensive breath will be noticeable to the other perEon. The question isr Are fine, white, perfect teeth admirable and attractive? Will they tend to enhance your charms in the eyes of your lover? Will yellow teeth, or the pungent odors that exude from uncleaned or decaying teeth, have the opposite effect upon one who other wise might be fond ofyoj? ' Aside entirely from the fact that it is more comfortable and practically help ful to have perfect teeth and keep them in good order.you should not forget that the very persons whom yon would wish most to like you may be strongly repelled by a neglected or foul condi tion of your teeth. These considerations arj eminently sensible things for people to consider. They are suggested by a recent talk witn Dr. W. A. Wise, of the famous dental firm, Wise Brothers, Failing building, Portland, Oregon. This firm is probably the most up-to-date concern in the Northwest. They put teeth in order without causing any pain, and their prices are extremely moderate. The moral of this story is that levers should not neglect their teeth. There are probably 50,000 bad-toothed lovers within 50 miles of Portland, all of whom should go immediately to - Wise Brothers and get fixed up for proper kissing. - John Burroughs has an article on "The Ways of Nature" in the forth coming June Century, which contains high praise for Kipling's wiork in nat ural history.

SECURITY. c 1U1 SLEEPY GRASS" It Has a Sedative Effect Upon 11 Horses Eating of It. There Is a species of grass, Stipa vaseyi, growing In the mountains of New Mexico and In some ot the neigh boring regions, that has the remarkable effect of putting to sleep every horse that eats it. Until recently there have been only vague and unauthentic ac counts of It. But at a recent meeting of the Washington Biological Society, Vernon Bailey, an official of the Biolo gical Survey, described the efTects of this grass on the horses of the explor ing party of which he had charge last year. - They had camped lnThe Sacramento Mountains In New Mexico, at an alti tude of about eight thousand feet. Their horses had Just been turned loose to graze on a grass that had an abund ance of green blades aad tall heads full of ripe seeds, when a passing ranch man warned them that It was "sleepy grass," and added, "If they get a good feed of, that grass you will not get out of here for a week." After the horses ; had grazed about half an hour the warning was heeded, and the horses were picketed in another spot. The next morning all the horses were drowsy, and one was sound asleep, standing with legs braced and ears and lower lip drooping In a most un usual and grotesque fashion. He had almost to be dragged to camp, and would not eat his oats or drink water.-' He preferred to sleep. All the horses were sleepy for about three days, but no 111 effects followed, except profuse sweating while traveling and a little 1 loss of flesh from preferring to sleep instead of eating full rations. , . i The range horses are said never to eat sleepy grass, and those that are brought Into the region where It grows and turned loose eat of it only once. Horses that were thought to have strayed and were lost for days have been finally found asleep in the bushes near camp. Cattle fire said either not to be affected by eating this grass or to refuse to eat it. The exact facts are not known. It is possible that when more Is known about this sleepy grass, an extract ma be made from It which will be of use as a sedative. A gifted monkey in a London menag. I erie died recently. He answered to the name of Esau and was 4 years old. His life was Insured for a large sum and the manager of the menag erie asserts that the signature for his life policy bore Esau's own auto- ' graph, which his trainer, Captain Del- j ascier, had taught him to write. Esau, Indeed, had his own banking account, . his earnings, amounting to some thou sands a year, being credited in his own name. Checks drawn against this sum were signed by Esau. , A woman of Paisley, Scotland, re cently stumbled at night into a stream which was in flood and was swept Into the sewer through which the stream flows before joining the River Cart. While passing through the sewer she caught a projecting ledge and climbed upon It. The place was swarming with rats. She had the greatest diffi culty in keeping them off and much of her clothing was torn or gnawed away. After she had been In this po sition for eight hours the stream rose and she was swept off the ledge into the River Cart, where she clung to the bank and was rescued the next morning. The national museum at Washing ton has a remarkable collection - of rats, which was presented by Major Edgar A. Mearns of the medical de partment of the army. In this collec tion are specimens of water rats,, mountain rats, field rats, tree rats, ship rats, factory rats, cave rats and plain every-day rats. There are trop ical rats, arctic rats, rats from Su matra, rats from the Phllippines,ledl ble rats from China, rats from the East Indies and muskrats;also skunks, chipmunks, squirrels, mink, raccoons, opossums and hundreds of varieties of mice, including field mice and wood mice.
