A Strange Phioan Obeerved by
Lorn of Nsttare.
Did you ever see a frozen breeze?
Yon migbt have seen one if you bad
gone with me into the country one win
ter morning, saya the Country.
This was the way it came to be)
frozen: All night long the air had been
laden with mist. Over the fields, in the
hollowe, all through the woods, even
on top of the hills, the fog hung heav
ily. All that time the wind blew stead
ily, but not fiercely, from some north
ern quarter.
At nightfall the mercury fell below
the freezing point, so that this mist,
as it drifted through the trees, was
frozen upon their branches and twigs.
The elms, the oaks and the other leaf
less trees took their ice coating quite
evenly, ' but the thick, impenetrable
masses of the needles of the pine trees
were covered noticeably only upon the
sides toward the north or northwest,
from which the wind came. The strong,
steady breeze bent the branches to lee
ward while it was icing them, and when
the wind came down in the morning
they remained just there, leaning to the
southward, iced and frozen to im
movability, but looking just as if the
wind were still steadily blowing.
Even in the afternoon, when the ram
began to fall and the wind came from
quite another quarter, that north wind
of the night before still remained white
and frozen over the piny woods, the
pale, rigid corpse of a thing once keen
ly alive.

In Greece the hotels of the interior

There is no common sitting-room, says
the Atlantic Monthly. Why should
there be? There is no office, but that

is given up to a cafe or restaurant, if
the innkeepr goes into that kind of
business. Very often, however, the

The
Cruel Rnile!
The alarming increase in the number
of deaths which occur as the result of a
surgical operation is attracting general
attention, and a etrong sentiment
n gainst such methods of treatment is
fast developing among the most intelli
gent classes. It seems that in almost
every case for which the doctors' treat
ment is unsuccessful, the learned physi
cians decide at once that an operation
must be performed, and the keen blade
of the surgeon is recklessly resorted to.
Doctors are human, and of course are
liable to make mistakes, but their mis
takes are too fatal to be indulged in
promiscuously, and as so many lives are
eaerificed in this manner, it is but natural
for the public to believe that half the
operations are unnecessary, besides be
ing a fearml risk to human life, even if
successful.
It is a positive fact, however, that all
operations are not necessary, and that a
majority of them are absolutely under
taken without the slightest chance of
success. The doctors have never been
able to cure a blood disease, and a sur
gical operation is their only method of
treating deep-seated cases, such as can
cer and scrofulous affections. Aside
from the great danger, an operation
never did and never will cure cancer, as
the disease never fails to return. Can
cer is in the blood, and common sense
teaches anyone that no disease can be
cut irom the blood.

Here la an echo from the days when
it was not reckoned unlawful to sell
oleomargarine as butter:
"We no longer have the same profit
able way of ulxpoHingof our waste prod
ucts that we bad! a few years ago," mid
a fur dealer the other day. He looked
retrospective and a trifle regretful, as
he continued: "There was always a
ready market then for every particle of
the fat scrapings from the different
aklns. Who took them? Why, the oleo
margarine manufacturers, to lie sure.
They would send wagons up to my
place every dny and carry away several
larrelfuls of the fat and grease which
have to be taken off the under side of
the heavy pelts. Skunks, onoKMUins,
all kinds of animals contributed. It

Here is a case where the pain inflicted
on a six-year-old boy was especially
cruel, and alter undergoing the tortures
produced by the surgeon's knife be rap
idly grew worse. Mr. J. N. Murdoch,
tne father of the boy, residing at 279
Snodgrass street, Dallas, Texas, writes :
"When my son, Will, was six years
Old, a small sore appeared on bis lip,
which did not yield to the usual treat
ment, but before long began to grow. It
gave him a great deal of pain, and con
tinued to spread. He was treated dv
several good doctors, who said he had
cancer, and advised that an operation
was necessary.
"Alter much reluctance, we consented,
and they cut down to the law bone,
which they scraped. The operation was
a severe one, but I thought it was tne
only hope for my boy. Before a great
wniic me cancer rcmrueu, auu ucbu w
grow rapidly. We gave him many rem
edies without relief, and finally upon the
advice of a friend, decided to try S.S.S.
(Swift's Specific), and with tbe second
bottle he began to improve. After twenty
bottles had been taken, the cancer dis
appeared entirely and he was cured.
The cure was a permanent one, for he is
now seventeen years 01a, ana nas never
had a sign of the dreadful disease to return."
S.S.S. is far ahead of all other blood
remedies, because it is the only one
which cures deep-seated obstinate blood
diseases such as Cancer, Scrofula,
Eczema. Catarrh. Rheumatism, etc.
It is the only blood remedy guaranteed
