' The diseases most feared are those which are
Inherited handed down from generation to gen
eration, and family to family. By far the most
destructive of these is Cancer, which finds the
greatest number of its victims among the children
and grand-children of those whose blood was taint1
with this dreadful malady. You may carry this poison in the blood for years but
as the vital powers begin to wane a slight bruise or cut, wart or mole, sore or
pimple may develop into Cancer. From middle life to old age is the time when
the slumbering poison is most apt to break out, a sore or nicer often degeneratine
into Cancer, and Tumors become more progressive and ulcerate through the skin
the sharp, shooting pains causing the most intense suffering. '
The Cancer patient naturally grows despondent as one after another the usual
remedies fad, and the sore shows no 6ign of healing. The impurities that have
been accumulating in the system, perhaps for generations, cannot be eliminated nor
the poisoned blood made pure by salves, washes and plasters. The proper treatment
is to purify and build up the blood, remove the cause, when the sore or ulcer heals

St Jacobs Oil for .Chut Colds, Bronchitis,
Croup and Pleurisy.
An outward application for bronchi
al difficulties is many times far more
effective than syrups, cough mixtures,
cod liver oil, etc, simply because it
penetrates through to the direct cause,
which is, as a rule, an accumulation
of matter or growth tightly adhered
to the bronchial tubes.
St Jacob's Oil, possessing as it does
those wonderful penetrating powers,
enables it to loosen these adhesions
and to Induce free expectoration.
Cases have been known where expec
torations have been examined after
St Jacob's Oil has been applied, and
the exact formation was clearly shown
where the adhesions had been remov
ed or pulled off the bronchial tubes.
All irritation of the delicate mucous
membrane of the.bronchae is quickly
removed by the healing and soothing
properties of St Jacob's OIL In cases
of croup and whooping cough in child
ren St Jacob's Oil will be found super
ior to any other remedy.
St. Jacob's Oil is for sale through
out the world. It is clean to use not
at aU greasy or oily, as its name
might imply. For rheumatism, gout
sciatica, neuralgia, cramp, pleurisy,
lumbago, sore throat, bronchitis, sore
ness, stiffness, bruises, toothache,
headache, backache, feetache, pains
in the chest, pains in the back, pains
in the shoulders, pains in the Umbs,
and all bodily aches and pains it has
no equal. It acts like magic Safe,

Thrown from His Cab and Kilied.
The following is a most interesting
and, In one respect pathetic tale:
Mr. J. Pope, 42 Ferrar Road, Streat
ham, England, said:
"Yes, poor chap, he Is gone, dead
horse bolted, thrown off his seat on
his cab he was driving and killed
poor chap, and a good sort too, mate.
It was him, you see, who gave me that
half bottle of St. Jacob's Oil that
made a new man of me. 'Twas like
this: me and Bowman were great
friends. Some gentleman had given
him a bottle of St. Jacob's Oil which
had done him a lot of good; he onlj
used half the bottle, and remembering
that I had been a martyr to rheuma
tism and sciatica for years, that I had
literally tried everything, had doctors,
and all without benefit, I became dis-
! couraged, and looked upon it that
there was no help for me. Well," said
Pope, "You may not believe me, for
it is a miracle, but before I had used
the contents of the half bottle of St.
Jacob's Oil which poor Bowman gave
me, I was a well man. There it Is,
you see, after years of pain, after us
ing remedies, oils, embrocations,
horse liniments, and spent money on
doctors without getting any better, I
was completely cured in a few days.
I bought another bottle, thinking the
pain might come back, but it did not,
so I gave the bottle away to a friend
who had a lame back. I can't speak
too highly of this wonderful pain
killer." An Uncalculatint; Hero,

"It is really remarkable that I did
not lose my Jifo," she said. "When
I was 16 years old was taken ill. I
was pale and weak ami grew easily
tired and tlio family doctor seemed
unable to help me stall."
"Didn't you try any other physi
cians?" asked the newspaperman.
"Yes, but they did not help me
either. My parents tried various
remedies and treatment but I only
kept getting, worse. By the time I
was 19 years old I was thin and blood
less as a ghost."
"What did the doctors call your
disease?" inquired the reporter.
"They said my blood had turned
to water and I had anaemia. I felt
dreadful. It was about this time that
Miss Huntley advised me to try Dr.
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People,
as she had been cured of a somewhat
similar trouble by their uso. I bought
a box and before I had taken all the
pills I found that they were doing me
good. My appetite increased and the
healthy color began to show in my
cheeks and lips. I continued to use
the pills until I had taken fifteen
boxes when I found myself entirely
cured."
"Have you ever had any return of
the trouble?" aeked the reporter.
"No; never a bit. I cannot re
member a time when I was as strong
and healthy as now. I know that Dr.
Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People
saved my life and I believe that no
other medicine could have done so."
Anaemia is not the only disciuo
which succumbs to the potent influ
