KNEW VALUE OF AN OATH.
Colored Witness at Least Was Aware
of Its Pecuniary Worth.
Clarence S. Darrow, the well known
lawyer and essayist, discussing the
Haywood trial, in which he played so
prominent a part, said the other day:
"Some of the evidence in that trial
was so transparently false that it re-
minds me of a case that came off in
Alabama a few years back. One of
the witnesses in this case was an ex-
tremely ignorant man. As his testi-
mony progressed, his ignorance be-
came so shockingly evident that the
judge, looking sternly down at him
said:
" 'Look here, sir, are you acquaint-
ed with the value of an oath?'
"The witness answered anxiously:
" 'Jedge, 1 hope I am. That thar
lawyer on yer left hand gimme six dol-
lars to sw'ar agin the other side.
Thet's the correck value of an oath,
ain't it, jedge?'"

Terrible Itching Prevented Sleep—
Hands, Arms and Legs Affected
—Cuticura Cured in 6 Days.
"I had eczema nearly fifteen year3.
The affected parts were my hands,
arms and legs. They were the worst
in the winter time, and were always
itchy, and I could not keep from
scratching them. I had to keep both
hands bandaged all the time, and at
night I would have to scratch through
the bandages as the itching was so
severe, and at times I would have to
tear everything off my hands to scratch
the skin. 1 could not rest or sleep. I
had several physicians treat me but
they could not give me a permanent j
cure nor even could they stop the itch-1
ing. After using the Cuticura Soap,
one box of Cuticura Ointment and two
bottles of Cuticura Resolvent for about
six days the itching had ceased, and
now the sores have disappeared, and I
never felt better in my life than 1 do
now. Edward Worell, Band 30th L. S.
Infantry, Fort Crook, Nebraska."

Hindoo Defines Billiards.
John Horgan, the champion pool
player, told at a dinner in St. Louis a
billiard story.
"Billiards is a tame amusement be-
side pool," Mr. Horgan began. "Two
Hindoos were once discussing the
game in Calcutta, and I think that
their idea of it was pretty near the
right one.
" 'What is this white man's game of
billiards I hear so much about?' said
the first Hindoo.
"'Don't you know?' said the second.
" 'No. Tell me.'
" 'Weil,' said the second Hindoo,
'billiards is a very simple game. Two
men armed with long sticks poke at a
ball on a green table, and one says, "I
am" while the other says "hard
lines.
One of the greatest triumphs of
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com-
pound is the conquering of woman's
dread enemy Tumor,
The growth of a tumor is so in-
sidious that frequently its presence
is wholly unsuspected until it is well
advanced.
So called "wandering pains" may
come from its early stages or the
presence of danger may be made
manifest by excessive monthly periods
accompanied by unusual pain, from
tile abdomen through the groin and
thigh- . ..
If you have mysterious pains, if
there are indications of inflammation
or displacements, sccure a bottle of
Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com-
pound, made from native roots and
herbs, right away and begin its use.
The following letters should con-
vince every suffering woman of its
virtue, and that it actually does
conquer tumors.
Mrs. May Fry, of 836 W. Colfax
Ave , South liend, Ind., writes :
Dear Mrs. Pinkham :—
"I take great pleasure in writ-
ing to thank you for what Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound has
done for me- 1 also took the Blood
Purifier in alternate doses with the
Compound. Your medicine removed a
cyst tumor of four years' growth,
which three of the best physicians
declared I had. They had said that
only an operation could help me. 1 am
very thankful that 1 followed a friend s
advice and took your medicine. It has
made me. a strong and well woman and
1 shall recommend it. as long as I live."
Mrs. E. F. Hayes, of 26 RugglesSt.,
Boston, Mass., writes :
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:—
"I have been under different doctors'
treatment, for a long time without
relief. They told me I had a fibroid
tumor, my abdomen was swollen and
I suffered with great pain. 1 wrote
to you for advice, you replied and I
followed your directions carefully and
today I am a well women. Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound ex-
pelled the tumor and strengthened my
whole system."
Mrs. Perry Byers, of Mt. Pleasant,-
Iowa, writes :
Dear Mrs. Pinkham :—
"1 was told by ray physician that I
had a fibroid tumor and that I would
have to be operated upon. I wrote to
you for advice, which I followed eare-
fnlly and took Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound. 1 am not only
cured of the tumor but other female
troubles and can do all my own work
after eigh years of suffering."
Mrs. S. J. Barber, of Scott, N. V.
writes :
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:—
"Sometime ago I wrote you for
advice about a tumor which the doctors
thought would have to be removed.
Instead I took Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound and to-day am a
well woman."
Mrs. M. M. FuuU, Vandergrift, Pa.,
writes:
Dear Mrs. Pinkham :—
"I had a tumor and Lydia E. Pink-
ham's Vegetable Compound removed
it for me after two doctors had given
me up. X was sick four years before 1
began to take the Compound. I now
recommend Lydia E Pinkham's Veget-
able Compound far and near."
Such testimony as above is con-
vincing evidence that Lydia E. Pink-
ham's Vegetable Compound stands
without a peer as a remedy for Tumor
Growths as well as other distressing
ills of women, and such symptoms as
Bearing-down Sensations, Displace-
ments, Irregularities and Backache,
ctc. Women should remember that it
is Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Com-
pound that is curing so many women
Don't forget to insist upon it when
some druggist asks you to accept
something else which he calls "just
as good."
THE SOURCE OF ALL DISEASE
Every part of the body is dependent oa the blood for nourishment and
strength. When this life stream is flowing thraiiph the system in a state oi
purity and richness we are assured of perfect and uninterrupted health;
because pure blood is nature's safe-guard against disease. V'hen, however,
the body is fed on weak, impure or polluted blood, the system is deprived of
its strength, disease germs collect, and the trouble is manifested in various
ways. Pustular eruptions, pimples, rashes and the different skin affections
show that the blood is in a feverish and diseased conauion as a result of too
much acid or the presence of some irritating humor. Sores and Ulcers are
the result of morbid, unhealthy matter ia the blood, and Rheumatism, Ca-
tarrh, Scrofula, Contagious Blood Poison, etc., are all deep-seated blood
disorders that will continue to grow worse as long as the poisou remains.
These impurities and poisons fmd their way into the blood in various ways.
Often a sluggish, inactive condition of the system, and torpid state of the
avenues of bodily waste, leaves the refuse and waste matters to sour and
form uric and other acids, which are taken up by the blood and distributed
throughout the circulation. Coming ia contact with contagious diseases is
another cause for the poisoning of the blood ; we also breathe the germs and
microbes of Malaria into our lungs, and when these get into the blood ia
sufficient quantity it becomes a carrier of disease instead of health. Soma
are so unfortunate as to inherit bad blood, perhaps the dregs of some old
constitutional disease of ancestors is handed down to thcia and they are
constantly annoyed and troubled with it. Bad blood is the source of all dis-
ease, and until this vital fluid is cleansed and purified the body is sure to
suffer ia some way. For blbod troubles of any character S. S. S. is the best
remedy ever discovered. It goes down into the circulation and removes any
aud all poisons, supplies the healthful properties it needs, and completely
and permanently cures blood diseases of
every kind. The action of S. S. S. is so
thorough that hereditary taints are removed
and weak, diseased blood made strong and
healthy so that disease cannot remain. It
cures Rheumatism, Catarrh, Scrofula, Sores
and Ulcers, Skin Diseases, Contagious
Blood Poison, etc., and does not leave tho
slightest trace of the trouble for future outbreaks. The whole volume of
blood is renewed and cleansed after a course of S. S. S. It is also nature's
greatest tonic, made entirely of roots, herbs and barks, and is absolutely
harmless to any part of the system. S. S. S. is for sale at all first class
drug Stores, Book on the blood and any medical advice free to all who write.

Kismet.
Kismet is an Arabic word meaning
"fate," or "it is fated." A belief in
predestination is one of the funda-
mental principles in the Mohammedan
faith. Not only a man's fortune, but
his deeds, and consequently his future
reward or punishment are, according
to this faith, irrevocably, and thus un-
avoidably, pre-ordained—a doctrine
which has contributed largely to the
success of Islam by inspiring its cham-
pions with the greatest contempt for
the dangers of warfare. When a Mo-
hammedan meets with any disaster or
misfortune, no matter how great, he
accepts th"e situation calmly, merely
saying, "Kismet"—"it is fated."
Nobody Wanted Church.

PUTS THE "GINGER" IN.
The Kind of Food Used by Athletes.
A former college athlete, one of the
long distance runners, began to lose
his power of endurance. His experi-
ence with a change in food is interest-
ing.
"While I was in training on the
track athletic team, my daily 'jogs' be-
came a task, until after I was put on
Grape-Nuts food for two meals a day.
After using the Food for two weeks I
felt like a new man. My digestion was
perfect, nerves steady and I was full
of energy.
"I trained for the mile and the half
mile runs (those events which require
so much endurance) and then the long
daily 'jogs,' which before had been
such a task, were clipped off with
ease. I won both events.
"The Grape-Nuts food put me in per-
fect condition and gave me my 'ginger.'
Not only was my physical condition
made perfect, and my weight in-
creased, but my mind was made clear
and vigorous so that I could get out
my studies in about half the time for-
merly required. Now most all of the
University men use Grape-Nuts for
they have learned its value, but I
think my testimony will not be amiss
and may perhaps help some one to
learn how the best results can be ob-
tained,"
There's a reason for the effect of
Grape-Nuts food on the human body
and brain. The certain elements in
wheat and barley are selected with
special reference to their power for re-
building the brain and nerve centres.
The product is then carefully and
scientifically prepared so as to make
it easy of digestion. The physical and
mental results are so apparent after
two or throe week's use as to produce
a profound Impression. Head "The
lload to Wallville," in pkgs. "There's
a reason."
To Relieve Pain
m
SicK Women
!?ou should know, if you suffer from any of the
pains due to womanly trouble, that it is possible to be
relieved or cured by the use oi Cardui.
Fifty years, and over, of unexampled success,
in the treatment of female ailments, lias demonstra-
ted what Cardui can do, for others, since, in that
time, it has benefited over a million women.
"Cardui has cured me," writes Mrs. Chas. Will-
iams, of Willow Shoals, Ky., "and I praise it above
all other medicines. "Before I began to use it, I was
almost dead. .1 had suffered for five (5) years, with
female trouble, experienced death-
ly pains, every month. I had doctors
from different places, but none of
them did me any good, and I ran down
to 97 pounds.
"At last I wrote you for advice
and began to take Cardui. In three
months I was like a new woman. I
continued to improve and now I am
well, weigh 67 1-2 pounds more, than
and am able to do my work." Try it.
