It the blood is in good condition at the beginning- of the warm season,
yon ore prepared to resist disease and are not apt to be troubled with bolls,
pimples, blackheads and'blotches, or the itching- and burning- okin eruptions
that make one's life a veritable torment and misery.
Now i3 the time to begin the work of cleansing and building up the
oioou ana eircngiacning me weajc
places in your constitution. During the
cold winter months we are compelled
to live indoors and breathe the impure
air of badly ventilated rooms and of
fices. We over-work nnd over-eat, and
get too little out-door exercise, and our
systems become clogged with impuri
ties and the blood a hot-bed of germs
and humors of every kind, and warm
weather is sure to bring a reaction,
and the poisonous matter in the blood
And system will break out in boils and
pustules or scaly eruptions and red,
disfiguring bumps and pimples. Make
a good beginning this season by taking
a course of S. S. S. in time ; it will not
only purify your blood and destroy the
germs and poisons, but promotehcalthy
action of the Liver and Kidneys and
give yoa a good appetite at a time
when you need it most.
S. S. S. improves the digestion and
tones up the Stomach, and you arc not
continually bauntcd by the fear of
indigestion every time you eat, or
troubled with dizziness, nervousness
and sleeplessness. There is no reason
to dread the coming of warm weather if you have your system well fortified
and the blood in a normal, healthy condition. It is the polluted, sluggish
blood that invites disease germs, microbes and poisons of every kind and
bring on a long train of Bpring and summer ailments, break down the con
stitution, and produce weakness, lassitude, and other debilitating disorders.
Eczema, Acne, Nettle-rash, Poison Oak and Ivy, and other irritating skin
troubles are sure to make their appearance unless the humors and poisons
arc antidoted and the thin, acid blood
made rich and strong before .the coming
of warm weather.
A course of S. S. 8. now would be
a safe precaution and a good beginning
and enable you to pass in comfort
throucrh the hot. sultry months and
escape the diseases common to spring and summer. 8. 8. 8. is guaranteed
purely vegetable and 'is recognized as the best blood purifier and the most in
vigorating and pleasant of all tonics. Write for our book on "The Blood and

German experts say that wood which
has been floated In rafts, or otherwise,
gives a moro trustworthy material for
Joinery and building purposes than
does that which lins been carted, or
otherwise carried dry, to tho sawmill
and workshop. The reason Is that
while tho wood Is lying In the water
Its sap and albuminous and salty ma
terials are dissolved out If those sub-
stances remain In tho wood they read
ily absorb moisture from tho atmos
phere, after coming out of the drying
rooms, and the wood swells. Artifi
cial processes of washing out the hy
groscopic substances from wood which
has not been floated are practiced In
Germany.
In describing experiments made for

that It Is a well-known fact that tho

been attained In limestone regions. Ho
adds that In the bluo-grass region of
Kentucky, long noted for the beauty
and quality of Its llvo stock, nnd espe
cially of Its thoroughbred horses, tho
soil has been formed largely by tho
disintegration of a limestone very rich
In phosphates. Hut even In that fa

Census Work In Kurope.
To tho American observer of Euro
pean census methods, ono of the most
striking characteristics Is the decen
tralization of census work. In tho
United Btates tho census Is completely
centralized; every person engaged In
tho work ucts ns an olllccr or omployo
of tho federal government, und all ex
penditures for census purposes aro
made from the United Htutes treasury.
In most countries of continental Ku
