SpecificBIoodPoison
Specific Blood Poison is t!;e most insidious of all diseases. It begins
usually by a tiny sore which is the only outward evidence ot its presence.
Bat down in the blood the treacherous poison is at work and in a short
time its chain of symptoms begin to crop out. The mouth and throat ul-
cerate, skin eruptions break out, sores and ulcers appear on the body, the
jrltnds in the eroin swell, and sometimes the hair comes out. Mineral
medicines cannot cure Specific Blood Poison; they
only shut the disease up in the system to smolder
and await an opportunity of breaking out afresh.
The only possible way to cure the disease is to re-
move the germs from the blood. S. S. S. goes into
the circulation and removes the last trace of the in-
' fectious virus, tones up the stomach, bowels, kid-
neys and all portions of the system, and thus makes
a perfect and lasting cure. S. S. S. is made entirely
of roots, herbs and barks; it does not contain a par
tide of mineral or other harmful drug. Thousands
have cured themselves of Specific BI txI Poison by the useof S.S.S. It will
rure you if you will give it a trial. Special Home Treatment book and any
medical advice true. THE SWIFT SPECIFIC CO., ATLANTA, CA.

SEWER COin LEI
Wells.Franklin Get Contract at &24,-
D87.15—Other Ala tiers Attended To.
At the regular session of the town
council last night the contracts for
the sewers and disposal plant were
let and various other matters consid-
ered. The Wells-Franklin Construc-
tion company of Muskogee were the
successful bidders for the sewer con-
struction at $24,987.15. The Electrol-
vt.Io company of Oklahoma City was
awarded the contract, of furnishing
a disposal plant, which is to be like
the one in use in Oklahoma City.
There w6re ten bidders for the
sewer work and each were represent-'
ed at last night's meeting. Some of
the bids were ridiculously high, tho
VfcGuire-Stanton company entering a
bid of $35,280.65, while three or four
of the lowest were very close. Tho
Wells-Franklin company, though
awarded the contract,' was not the
lowest bidder. The Stokes Construc-
!ion company, with a bid of $24,870.80,
about $111.00 lower than the success-
ful bidder, was turned down. No
•xplanations for this was given in the
•ouncil room when Mr. Stokes arose
ind made a speech protesting against,
he action.
Later in a private conversation
with a member of the council it was
learned that the specifications under
which the contracts were to be award-
d, permitted of the rejections of any
vf all bids as the council thought ad-
Isable. For what reason the bid was
urned down after Mr. Stokes had of-
fered to furnish proof of financial
•acking and of the good grade of
vork done on other contracts, was
not made known in the council room.
During the time the bids were be-
ng figured by Engineer King, an or-
linance calling for an election Octo-
ber 30. to consider the awarding of a
'ranchise to E. B. Jennings and Leo
Wanger for the building and oper-
itlng of an electric plant f.^r twi'v-
Ive years was considered. The fran-
hlse seemed to be in a fair wav cf

bishing free lights for the churches

rlcity for churches at half rate. The
neasure was then passed unanimous-
'y.
A bill of $137.50 was allowed to C.
V. King for work on sewer plans.

work on it will not start until his en-

Pump Station Work Pushed.
Work in the Kasigan Gas com-

rapidly. The lumber, rock and con-
crete to be used on this structure is

cavating, except for the reservoir, is
completed. The reservoir excavating
is half finished, and the foundations
are being started. The doubling of
the working.force ye&terday, making
the number of employees now about
forty<five, is ample proof' that the
$265,000 station is to be built in .the
quickest possible time.
School to Open.
It seems now an assured fact that
the. big school building will not be
ready by the date set for opening of
school, Sept. 30. It is said on good
authority, though the members of the
school board could not be found yes-
terday, that school will commence on
the opening date, next Monday, in a
