ing their blood pure they can fortify themselves
as to escape three fourths of the ailments
from which they suffer so generally. S. S. S. is
the remedy which will keep their systems young, by purifying the blood, I
thoroughly removing all waste accumulations, and impart
ing new strength and life to the whole body. It increases
the appetite, Builds up the energies, and sends new life
giving Dlood throughout the entire system
Mrs. Sarah Pike, 477 Broadway, South Boston, writes:
“lam seventy years old, and had not enjoyed good health
for twenty years. I was sick in different ways, and in
addition, haa Eczema terribly on one of my legs.
The
doctor said that on account of my age, I would never be
well again. I took a dozen bottles of S. S. S. and it cured me
completely, and I am happy to say that
ir dia
I feel as well as I ever
did in my life.”
Mr. J. W. Loving, of Colquitt, Ga., says: “For eight
een years I suffered tortures from a fiery eruption on
my «kin I tried almost every known remedy, but they
failed one by one, and I was told that my age, which is
sixty-six was against me, and that I could never hope
to be well again. I finally took S. S. S., and it cleansed
my bipod thoroughly, and now I am in perfect health. ’

Capt. Guy Barrows in Pearson’s Mag
azine maintains that cannibalism is n
sign of a little higher development
than the tribes who <lo not practice it
possess. It is a relie of some religious
rite or perhaps hunger that has been
retained until the descendants like the
practice of it. The flesh of relatives
is never eaten and some tribes forbid
the use of human flesh to their wom
en. A cannibal is often kind and af
fectionate and no bad moral results
have been discovered from it.
CRITICAL MOMENTS.
Every undertaking in life has its critical
moments.
History is full of instances
where the fate of nations hung on the
issue of a single minute. When young
Bonaparte snatched up the flag and sprang
forward on the Bridge of Lodi, in that
brief instant he opened the way for the
tonquest of half a world.

Nearly every man and woman can recall
some individual experience when an in.
stant’s decision has made months or years
of happiness or misery.
There are times when a man’s health is
at stake upon the care he gives to it within
twenty-four hours. He may be up and on
his feet, and going about his work, but his
system has become run-down and weakened
to that point, that a few hours are as critical
as if he were at the turning point of a dan
gerous fever, but he doesn’t realize it.
It is the same way when a man’s liver
has been out of order so long, and his
blood so choked up with bilions poison
that his lungs begin to be affected and he
feels that he is going into consumption.
This is the critical moment. He may not
be in consumption at all at that time; but a
few days or even hours may put him into iv

The death of Lieut. McLaughlin, of
the signal corps, who died of yellow
fever at Santiago, recalls a dramatic in
cident, in which he was one of the prin
cipal actors, during the campaign in
Porto Rico.
Lieut. McLaughlin had charge of a
squad which built a telegraph line
along the route of the American ad
vance on the night of August 12. The
signal corps men could not keep pace
with the advance of the infantry and
artillery, in comand of Gen. Brooke,
and when the latter faced a line of Span
ish intrenchments the telegraph line
was two miles in the rear.
At one o’clock of August 13 the mes
