There is nothing more distressing than an itching, burn ing skin disease, and upon the return of warm weather those who are afflicted with skin troubles find the symptoms appear in e and know that they will be tormented through the hot summer months. The blood is heated with humors and acrid matter, and as they are forced to the surface the skin seems to be on fire. The treatment of skin diseases with exter nal applications is all wrong, because they do not reach the trouble which is in the blood. The most sucli treatment can be expected to do is, allay the itching and burning and cover up' the trouble for awhile, but as soon as it is left off the disease returns. All food aken into the body contains, in some form, the elements necessary to sustain the dmerent parts, une portion is used tor the making of blood, another for muscle, one for bone, still another for fat, and so on. After these different properties are ex tracted from the food there still remains a portion that ;is useless, or waste matter, which is intended to be disposed of through the natural hannels of bodily waste, the Liver, Kidneys and Bowels. At this season of the vear. however, these organs become torpid, dull and sluggish, and fail to perform this duty," and these accumulations remain in the system aid are absorbed by the blood to ferment and sour, producing burning acids and acrid humors.:' The blood cannot properly nourish the system while in this impure condition, and begins to throw off these acids through the pores and glands of the skin, producing Acne, Eczema, Tetter, Psoriasis, Salt Rheum and skin diseases of every description. ECZEMA appears usually with a slight redness of the skin, followed by pustules from which there flows a sticky fluid that dries and forms a crust, and the itching is intense. It is generally on the back, breast, arms, legs and face, though other parts of the body may be afflicted. In TETTER the skin dries, cracks and bleeds, and is often very painful. The acid in the blood dries up the natural oils of the skin, causing a dry, feverish, hardened condition and giving it a leathery appearance. ACNE makes its appearance on the face in the form of pimples and black-heads, and is particularly disagreeable because of its unsightly appear ance, while PSORIASIS, a scaly disease, comes in patches on different parts of the body. One of the worst forms of skin disease is SALT RHEUM, It discharges a watery fluid, form ing sores and producing intense itching. The head and face are the parts usually affected, and sometimes the hair falls out and a mass of sores forms on the scalp. These and all skin diseases are due to the same cause burning acids and humors in the blood, and until this vital fluid is cleansed and made pure they will continue. The best treatment for all skin diseases is S. S. S., a remedy that is purely vegetable, being made en tirely from roots, herbs and barks, and acts directly on the blood with a cleansing, healing effect. It neutralizes the acids and purifies the blood so that the skin, instead of being blistered and burned by the fiery fluids, is nourished by a supply of cooling, healthy blood. It goes down into the circulation and forces out every particle of waste or foreign matter, builds up the blood and.cures all skin diseases promptly and permanently. S. S. S. does not leave the least par ticle of the poison for future outbreaks, but entirely rids the blood of the cause for all skin diseases. S. S. S. tones up the system and regulates the Liver, Kidneys and Bowels so that they will carry off the natural waste and refuse matter through the proper channels, instead of leaving it to be absorbed by the blood. Nothing equals S. S. S. in the treatment of these troubles and for building up the general health. Write for our treatise on skin diseases and any medical advice you wish.'

At a suburban residence near rhlla lelphla there recently appeared an unkempt-looking Individual who asked for employment. It chanced that his ap plication was made to the lady of th house herself, who was superintending the transplanting of plants in the gar den. "Are you a gardener?" asked the Khuharb Tapioca. To one pint of chopped rhubnrb add two dozen cooked prunes, one-fourth cup of prune Juice and one-half a cup of sugar. Boil for five or ten minutes, then add one-half cup of any quick cooking tapioca which has first been sjuked for half an hour In three-fourths cup of cold water. Cook until the tap ioca looks transparent and serve either hot or cold with sugar and cream. Method of Candying Cherries. A new method of candying cherries consists of seeding, candying and col oring the cherries and stems separate ly, attaching the osteins to the cherry afterward by shoving the thicker part of the stem within the stemhole of the cherry and allowing the flesh of the cherry to close and harden around the rtem.

Although "hunger Is the best sauce," a daintily garnished dish is the next best. Biscuits require much more heat to bake than bread, sd heat your oven accordingly. "Ain't had much experience at gar denin'," was the reply. "Can you plant these bushes?" 'io nate to risk spollin' 'em, mum." "Ttrsn what can you do?" "Well, mum," responded the un kempt-looking individual, "If you was to hand me one of your husband's ci gars I might sit in the greenhpuse an' smoke out them Insects that's eatin' the leaves of them rose-bushes."
