OLD SORES. ULCERS, ABSCESSES
The best evidence of a bad condition of the blood and unhealthy state of
. the system, is an old festering sore, running ulcer, or abscess. They show
llie bodily impurities are not passing out through the proper channels, but
are left in the system to clog and poison the blood. So thoroughly does
the poison permeate the system that every little scratch, cut or braise
inflames and festers. Everything about an old sore or ulcer suggests disease.
They affect the general health, they
require constant attention, and are a
source of anxiety and trouble all the
time, and in some cases highly offen
sive. There is danger, too, of these
places becoming cancerous if not
treated promptly and in the right
way. Washes, salves and ointments
are good for external use, but they
can't stop the discharge or change
the condition of the blood, and for
this reason the sore never heals per
manently. Not until the blood is purged of
impurities and the system cleansed
of all harmful substances should the
ulcer heal, or the effect upon the sys
tem might prove disastrous. 8.S.S.
goes into the circulation and searches
out and removes the cause of the
old sore and invigorates and builds
up the polluted, sluggish blood
again, and as the poisonous matter
is driven from the system the sore
begins to heal, new flesh forms and
tb place is soon coverea over wiin . ,
fresh skin and the sore is gone for all time, where the constitution is
debilitated from the effects of chronic sores, ulcers, abscesses, carbuncles,
boils or other severe skin eruptions, S. S. S.
the poison the sore must heal, because nothing is left in the system for
it to feed upon. Write ns should you desire medical advice, which is given

McKlntey Day.
"The Carnation League of America, f
instituted as an annual memorial to the
late President William McKinely and
dedicated to national patriotism, is a
fixed institution and insures a perennial
observance of January 29th, the arini
versary of his birth, as "McKinley
Day." To wear the late presidnet's
favorite flower, the carnation, in the
lapel of the coat, in the hair, or at the
throat, in silent memory of a departed
public servant, is what is contemplated
by this movement, in which the yonng
and old of both sexes can have a part.
The custom was first observed on Jan
uary 29th, 1903, with the greatest
nuanimity throughout the country, and
by Americans all over the world. It
is a simple, inexpensive act and full of
patriotic sentiment. All through Mr.
McKinley's life, both public and pri
vate, there ran a distinct vein of senti
ment, and a memorial of this sort is,
therefore, peculiarly appropriate to
him.
The custom will undoubtedly be ob
served the coming 29th day of January
more universally, if that is possible,
than on the initial day, a year ago.
Interest in the memorial has increased
wonderfully during the past year, and
Mr. Lewis G. Reynolds, of Dayton,
Ohio, who suggested the idea, has re
ceived letters of the most unqualified
approval from Americans everywhere.
No expectation is had of giving the
movement the importance of local or
ganizations -or annual meetings and
conventions, but in a quite, unobtrus
ive way it can be made to wield an in
fluence for good almost incalculable
and to foster a spirit of true patriotism
worthy of our country and of the man
whose memory it is proud to honor.

How the Cherokee Nation Gets Over
tae Race Problem.
The race problem in the Cherokee
nation Is solved to the general satis
faction of the three races concerned
and the intermediary mixed bloods.
In the location of homes the Cherokee
fullbloods and negroes are mostly in
settlements. The intermarried whites
largely are in the towns and terri
tory contiguous to each other. The
Cherokee speaking citizens much pre
fer to associate together.
In the nation there are thirty
schools attended by f ullblood Cherokee
children and seventeen by negro chil
dren. The negro blood schools are not
so by legal requirement, but as a corol
lary of their preference to live near
each other. The Cherokee and negro
do not intermarry or socially mingle.
Two seminaries and an orphan asylum
are attended by fullbloods and mixed
bloods only, the colored high school
by negroes only.
In the incorporated school districts
whites and Indians attend the same
schools, and race prejudice and undue
feeling on either side are being lost
in fellowship and friendship cultivated
in the class room and on the play
ground. Both sides are better satisfied
in the combined schools than when
they were kept separate. Fullbloods
seem to mingle as freely with white
renters and their families of good
character as they do with mixed
bloods.
Of the 38,500 citizens of the Chero
kee nation the best statistical informa
tion gives about 8,500 fullbloods. 3,200
intermarried whites, 22,800 mixed
bloods and 4,000 freedmen. Kansas

sweep the floor. It never dawned on
anyone how great the task was. Cald
well & Drake, the contractors, ordered
a dozen brooms and set twelve men to
work. When night came their inroads
on the twenty-three acres of floor
space were scarcely noticeable. They
increased the force next day to forty
men and ordered 100 brooms. These
forty men worked ten days before the
big floor was thoroughly swept.

ELECTRICITY IN WARFARE.
It la Widely TJaed la the Fartiflcatloaa
Alone the Coast.
An Interesting instance of the rapid
extension of the use of electricity Is
furnished by the fortifications distrib
uted along our coast 1 A few years
ago the electric light was Introduced,
to add to the comfort of the garrisons
and to -provide better illumination of
the works. Once a generating plant
had been Installed there was at hand
a supply of power in-' a 'convenient
and easily controllable form, and this
led to Its use for purposes which were
not contemplated at the time the plant
was installed. . Electric- fans have been
put in to make the " living quarters
more comfortable in hot weather, and
electric motors have been adopted for
training the guns, a class .of work for
which they are particularly well adapt
ed. Motors are .used to drive the am
munition hoists and to do other work
which before had either been done by
hand or some less satisfactory power.
Searchlights have been Installed, en
abling a fortification to sweep the sea
at night The various posts of the
fortress are" connected together by tel
ephone, so that the commandant is in
touch at all times with the entire gar
rison, and can instantly transmit or
ders to any point The various fortul
cations along the coast are tied to
gether by telephone and telegraph so
that on the appearance' of the enemy
at any point all- the fortifications
would be informed of it Submarine'
mines are controlled electrically,, and
even the guns may be fired by this
means by an officer at ' some distant
point By means of wireless telegra
phy a fortification can be kept in touch
with the scouting vessels, and would
be informed of the approach of the
enemy long before he Is visible from
the coast The telautograph may be
brought into service for transmitting
orders, and electric signaling lights
are replacing the older types. Electric
lights are used for rangefinder cross
hairs, for lighting the rangefinder sta
tion, and electric clock circuits fur
nish accurate time to all parts of the
fortification. To Insure the continuity
of these manifold services accumula
tors are now installed, so there will
at all times be a constant and reliable
supply of power. Thus, from being
at first a small auxiliary, the electrical
equipment has extended until it Is
now probably the most Important part
of the entire equipment of the fortress.

BELL AND DRAGON.
And Why th Bell Is So Often Adopted
as a Sinn in London. -The.
English are a music-loving na
tion, and they lore to hear music even
when going about their daily, occupa
tions, and so it is that the spires and
towers of her mighty cathedrals are
hung full of glorious bells. So fond of
bell-ringing is "Merrie England" that
Handel once said the bell is her na
tioral instrument. It is not strange,
therefore, that we find this instru
ment frequently adopted as a public
bign. From early in the seventeenth
century Bell Inns were numerous in
Loudon. In Knightrider street there
was an old inn the walls of which
were prefaced with a giant bell carvil
in bold relief; the keystone had tho
Initials "M. T. A.," and the date 1.668.
This fine specimen is now in Guild
hall. But a little step away, in Cacter
Lane, there was another Bell Inn,
which has the proud distinction of be
ing the hostelry from which Richard
Quyney wrote, in 1598, to his "loving
good tt rend and countryman, Mr.
Willm Shakespeare," the only letter
addressed to the Bard of Avon now
known to exist. The - letter Is pre
served in Stratford, the home of the
world's greatest poet. Not far away,
again, there is a modern Bell Tavern,
a place where It is said that Dickens
loved to go when making notes for
"David Copperfleld."
One of the most ancient and reputa
ble wholesale druggists in the city,
while rebuilding on his old site, dug
out of the foundations of the ancient
house an old sign of "The Bell and
Dragon." It bad lain there for more
than two hundred years, having been
used on a prior building before the
disasters of the Great Fire, and had
fallen through into the general ruins.
The peculiarity of the situation is that
the firm had adopted "The Bell and
Dragon" as their trade mark before
! the discovery of this fire-touched relic.
This splendid old stone bas-relief is
Jealously preserved, and occupies a
prominent place in the entrance of the
Holborn branch of the firm. St Nich

The properties of radium are ex

great intensity all of the different rays
that 'are produced in a vacuum-tube.
The radiation, measured by means of
an electroscope, is at least a million
times more powerful than that from an
equal quantity of uranium. A charged
electroscope placed at a distance of sev

centigrams of a radium salt One can
also discharge an electroscope through
a screen of glass or lead five or six

most instantly affected if no screen in

thankfulness that is in my heart. Our home is a different place now, as we

Women should not fail to profit by the experience of these two
women ; just as surely as they were cured of the troubles enume
rated in their letters, just so certainly will Lydia E. Pinkham's

inflammation of the ovaries, kidney troubles, nervous excitability,
and nervous prostration ; remember that it is Lydia E. Pink
ham's Vegetable Compound that is curing women, and don't allow
any druggist to sell you anything else in its place.
