DAD BLOOD,
DAD COMPLEXION.
The skin is the seat of an almost end
less variety of diseases. They are knewu
by various names, but are all due to the
same cause, acid and other poisons in
the blood that irritate and interfere with
the proper action of the skin.
To have a smooth, soft akin, free from
all eruptions, the blood must be kept pure
and healthy. The many preparations of
arsenic and' potash and the large number
of face powders and lotions generally
used in this class of diseases cover up
for a short time, but cannot remove per
manently the ugly blotches and the red,
disBguring pimples.
Eternal vigilance is the prioo
of a boaziiful complexion
when such remedies are relied on.
Mr. H. T. Shobe, 3704 Lucas Avenue, St. Louis,
Mo., says : "My daughter was afflicted fur years
with a disfiguring eruption on her face, which
resisted alt treatment. She was taken to two
celebrated health springs, but teceived no bene
fit. Many medicines were prescribed, but with
out reault, until we decided to try S. S. S., and by
the time the first bottle was finished tbeeruptioo
began to disappear. A dozen bottles cured her
completely and left her skin perfectly smooth.
She is now seventeen years old, and not a sign of
tbe embarrassing disease has ever returned."
S. S. S. is a positive, unfailing cure for
the worst forms of skin troubles. It is
the greatest of all blood purifiers, and the
only one guaranteed purely vegetable.
iiaa Dlooa makes bad complexions.

GOOD QUEEN OLGA,
Whoee Beneficent Firp -ae Has Lei te
l-atal Kiot.
The recent riots In Athens. In which
the troops and great numbers of stu
dents dashed with fatal results 011 both
fides, and which have lieeu followed liy
the resignation of the cabinet snd dis
turlianees in the legislative houses, had
their origin in a uiost peculiar cause.
.V desire on the part of yueen Olga to
do something for what she considered
the good of the soldiers was responsi
ble. During the tJraeoo-Turkish war
die was everywhere told by wounded
soldiers that they bad not read the
gospels because they didn't understand
the text, which was in old Greek. The
Queen then arranged for the publica
tion of a translation of the gospels into
modem Greek, exclusively for family
use. The Holy Synod of the Greek
Church protested against this proposi
tion, and the metropolitan of Athens,
Proeopius Oeconlniidis, held an audi
ence with the Queen. In which, how
ever, he did not so energetically cham
pion the opposition as was desired by
those who objected to the translation.
Queen Olga would not change her plan.
Recently the students took up the mat
ter and. armed like soldiers, paraded
the streets and occupied the university
4llk
QfEF.X OI.0 A.
buildings, their purpose being to resist
by force the work of translation.
These riotous protests against the ap
parently beneficent purpose of the
Queen appear all the more remarkable
when one remembers how Olga has
heretofore been adored by ber hus
band's subjects. She Is a woman of ex
traordinary intelligence and high-minded
principles. She Is tall and of com
manding presence, with splendid hair
and a most winning nnille. Throughout
the kingdom she is renowned for her
unceasing and wide-reaching charity.
She founded a model hospital and goes
personally twice a mouth to Inspect the
Infirmaries so as to he certain that tbe
sick are provided with every comfort.
I)urlng the Uusso-Turkish war, and
again when Greeks aud Turks dashed,
she attended the wounded with her
own hands. Besides, she Is a good
mother and a devoted wife: and she
superintends the education of her chil
dren. Ky birth she is a Russian grand
duchess.
Tbe Kutuan Saturnalia.
Feasting and revelry and all the mad
pursuit of pleasure are the features
that seem to have especially marked
this carnival of antiquity, as It went ou
for seven days In the streets aud public
squares and houses of ancient Rome
from the seventeenth to the twenty
third of December. But no feature of
the festival is more remarkable, noth
ing In it seems to have struck the an
cients themselves more than the license
granted to slaves at this time. The dis
tinction between the free and the ser
vile classes was temporarily abolished.
The slave might rail at his master, In
toxicate himself like his betters, sit
down at table with them, and not even
a word of reproof would be administer
ed to him for conduct which at any
other season might be punished with
stripes. Imprisonment or death. Nay.
more masters actually changed places
with their slaves aud waited cm tbem
at table, and not till the serf bad done
eating aud drinking was the board
cleared and dinner set for his master.
Ice for Nausea.
A physician advances the theory that
the distressing sensation of nausea has
Its seat In the brain and not In the
stomach, and that relief may be ob
tained by cooling the base of tbe brain.
He claims to have tested this often and
thoroughly In tbe case of sick headache,
bilious colic, cholera morbus, and other
Ills In which the nausea Is a distressing
symptom without a single failure! Also,
that he once relieved the nausea result
ing from cancer of the stomach by the
application of Ice to the back of the
neck and occipital bone. The Ice is to
be broken and the bits placed between
tbe folds of a towel. Relief may be ob
tained by holding tbe head over a sink,
or tub, and pouring a small stream of
water on the neck.

With many millions of families Syrup of Figs has become the
ideal home laxative. The combination is a simple and wholesome
one, and the method of manufacture by the California Fig Syrup
Company ensures that perfect purity and uniformity of product,
which have commended it to the favorable consideration of the
most eminent physicians and to the intelligent appreciation of all
who are well informed in reference to medicinal agents.
Syrup of Figs has truly a laxative effect and acts gently with
out in any way disturbing the natural functions and with perfect
freedom from any unpleasant after effects.
In the process of manufacturing, figs are used, as they are
pleasant to the taste, but the medicinally laxative principles of the
combination are obtained from plants known to act most bene
ficially on the system.
