So many people make llie mistnke of taking remedies which at best are only tonics and cannot possi bly reach their trouble. Mr. Asa Smith, Greencastlc, Indiana, says! "For years I have suffered with Sciatic Rheuma tism, which the best physicians were un able to relieve. I took many patent medicines but thev did not seem to reach inv trouble. I gradually grew worse until I was un able to take my food or handle myself in any way; I was abso lutely helpless. Three bottles of S.S.S. re lieved me so that 1 pwas soon able to move my right arm; before long I could walk across the room, otid when I had finished one dozen bottles was cured completely and am as well as ever. I now weigh 170." A Real Blood Remedy S.S.S. cures Scrofula, Cancer, Eczema, and any form of blood troubles. If you have a blood disease, take a blood medi cine S.S.S.

Louis Brazee, 8-ll-tr President Ws?3&7Mt i unitmumtfuiubtrymmaume CUBA Bandera's Triumphant March Maceos Equal-He Leads 12000 Men Across the Entire Island. New. York, Aug. 31. The Journal and Advertiser says: The sensationally victorious march of the Cubans under Maximo Gomez and Antonio Macco, the entire length of the island, In Martinez Campos time, has Just been duplicated by yuinun uanaeras. The negro war captain, than whom no Cuban of the colored race, excepting only Macco, perhaps, has won greater honors In the struggle of independence, led, 12, 000 men from the eastern end of the Island, where the patrljts inarms are strongest, to the western end, where, since maceo's ocatu tne uuoan cause has not prospered so well. Those 12,- 000 men represented all branches of ine uuoan army service. They pen etrated into the provinces of Mantan zas, Havana and Plnar del Rio, strengthening the existing forces In each of these provinces to such an ex tent that the coming winter cam paign there may be expected to be even as disastrous for the Spanish as in the times of the redoutable Maceo. The news of the brilliant achieve ment was brought to the Journal and Advertiser by the mail from Havana In an autograph letter from Bauderas himself. In it he requests the publl cation of the proclamation that he is sued on taking charge of the depart ment. Banderas says that the second invasion of the west was made In compliance with plans that were com pleted by Maximo Gomez.the geueral-In-chlef himself, in June last, and that the march was effected with little or no trouble or molestation from the Spanish troops. The proc lamation intimates that there have been wholesale desertions from the Spanish army in Havana province into the Cuban service. The rest of the proclamation Is di rected "To the Men of My Race," and is as follows,: "It only remains for me to appeal to the men of my race, to point out to them that we owe the liberty of our fatbean to the revolution of 18C8, and it is my duty to present to them the example of that noble figure, Major- General Antonio Maceo, who died on the field for the liberty country." Denver, Aug. 31. Count of his Henri Penaloza, or Paris, Is spending a few days in thecity upon mining business. The count Is an American by birth, a Spaniard by descent and a Frenchman by adoption, no was born in San Francisco In 1869, while his parents were spending the winter In Califor nia. In the course of an Interview Count Penaloza said: "As long as Spain has a man or a penny In the trersury the Spanish gov ernment will not consent to the inde pendence of Cuba. A country whose call for military funds was subscribed four times over and which has sent $200,000 soldiers to Cuba, is not In the Impoverished condition so of tor de scribed." Count Penaloza Is exiled from his native country on account of the Car list proclivities of his family. Good Is osaentlal to W health.
