AD OD DINVITES DISEASE
Every part of the body is dependent"on the blood for nourishment and
strength, and when from any cause this vital stream of life becomes impov
erished or run-down, it invites disease to enter. No one can be well when the
blood is impure; they lack the energy that is natural with health, the com
plexion becomes paleand sallow, the vital energies are at a low ebb, and they
suffer from a general broken-down condition of health. The system is weak
ened and unable to resist the diseases and disorders that are constantly assail
ing it. The Liver and Kidneys, failing to receive the proper stimulation and
nourishment from the blbod, grow inactive and dull, and the waste matters
and bodily impurities that should pass off through these channels of nature
are left in the system to pioduce Rheumatism. Catarrh. Sores and Ulcers,
Skin Diseases or some other blood disorder. When the blood is in this weak
ened and diseased condition it should be treated with a remedy that is not
only thorough, but gentle in its action. S. S. S., a purely vegetable remedy,
made of roots, herbs and barks, is just what is needed. It not only cleanses
the blood of all impurities and poisons. and enriches and strengthens it, but
gently builds up the entire system by its fine
tonic effect. S. S. S. reinvigorates every mem
. ber of the body, gives tone and vigor to the blood,
and as it goes to the different parts, carries ro
Sbust health and strength. S. S- S. acts more
PURELY VEGETABLE. promptly and gives better results than any other
medicine. It cures Rheumatism, Catarrh, Sores
and Ulcers, Skin Diseases and all other blood disorders, and cures them per
manently. Our Medical Department will be glad to give advice without
charge to all suffering with blood or skin diseases. Address

MANNING AUXILIARY
CONDUCTED BY
MRS. J. D. GERALD, Superintend
ent Press Work.
Italians in the Cotton States.
Southern planters have a prob
lem all their own. There are no~
unions, no strikes, no violence;
but the negro tenant silently ties
up his bundle of clothes and dis
appears whenever he so elects,
regardless of crop condition and
obligation to his employer.There
has been an idea, inherited from
the past, that only the negro
could raise cotton. That idea is,
losing its force,and cotton plant
ers are. investigating, looking
around for a class of laborers
suited to conditions in theSouth.
The indications are that sys
tematic efforts will be made to
bring Italian farmers to the cot
ton lands of the South.
One large company in South
ern Arkansas has upon its plan
tations one hundred and sixty
Italian families who are success
ful and contented.
The Birmingham News an
nounces that 50.000 acres of
land in Alabama have been pur
chased by a company "with the
avowed purpose of setting Italian
peasants upon the tract." Last
summer one of the largestplant
ers in Mississippi, Mr. Charles
Scott, visited Europe to satisfy
himself as to Italian and other
foreigh laborers. His conclusions
are altogether in favor of the
Italian farmers as desirable ten
ants.
Mr Scott's views have been
fully set forth 'in the daily pa
pers. He has arranged to place
Italians on soMle of his land. and
arges others to do so.
,In 1900 there were in the cot
ton States,, excluding Lousiana,
nearly ten thousand p e r s o n s.
Since 1900 Italian immigration
has greatly increased.
The pertinent question now is
this: Are Protestant churches
going to concede this field
to the Roman Catholic church?
That church is always alert and
stute. It is preparing to take
care of the situation. Itinerant
priests are sent out and little
chapels built. Wherever a few
Italian families locate they are
soon reached by a priest speak
ing their own language.
Mr. Scott says of the Italian
farmers: "These men are al
ready good farmers, and on the
whole have the right material in
them for the making of good cit
izens. This, of course. will be
later on, after they have lived
here long enough to become
thoroughly acquainted with our
customs and institutions and
thoroughly identified with Amer
ican interests."
What part shall the church
take in forming these citizens?
Home Missions is the livest sub
ject before the church. Each
section of the country has its pe
culiar problems in home mission
work. The church in the cotton
States should at once 'take up:
the work of evangelizing Italian
imigrants.-Salected.
We know of no Christian work
that gives promise of wider ser
vice and broader influence than
the Woman's Home Mission So
ciety of the M. E. church South.
The original purpose of its or
ganization was the building of
parsonages on our frontier, but
other phases of work have been
added: and in eighteen years the
society has made for itself a very
distinct plan in the thought and
purpose of the church.
A very important factor in the
work of the Woman's Home Mis
sion Society are its educational
institutions, 'and it now owns
school property which repre
sents $79.000. The schools have
been planted in sections where
the broadest opportunities have
been offered. We have endeav
ored to locate just where the
debt to humanity seemed great
est, especially in mountain sec
tions, and among foreigners who
come to us bringing debased
forms of religion if they bring
any at all. *
We can now speak only of the
work of t be society in behalf of
the Japanese-a people who
come from a small country
which lies otY the eastern coast
of Asia-and is often called the
"Empire Island" on account of
its consisting of an Archipelago
of some 4,000 islands-a country
that is shaped like the rising
moon, and named for the rising
sun: a wonderful nation, which
less than fifty years ago, with
the welcome she gave to foreign
ideas emerged from the national
seclusion and has since become
the cynosur-e of nations. These
people come to us as they say.
" Believing dhat America is the
gate to all good."
Work was opened up by the
Women's Home Mission Society
on the Pacifie coast. Among the
Japanese and Chinese, in 1897,
since ten nearly one thousand
Jpanese have been under ia
struction in the schools-night
schoos and Bible cjgsses of the
society. Two Japanese churches
have also been organized, one at
Alamedo, the other at San
Francisco, to which the Japanese
contribute liberally, as they are
ale. They show an -earnest
reerent disposition to acquire
and master our language, that
Ithey may become better men,
Iand oc~upy better positions. Dr.
Scherer, who taught Japanese
students for five years, says
they are ideal students, "not
originative. but for quick recep
tiveness and rapid, thorough as
siilation of mental good, they
are unpal}led."
A mnong no other class of im
our society worked with more
marked success, spiritually and
mentally.
This is but a hint of the work
teing done by the Woman's
Home Mission Society. Other
lines of this work stand for wore
extended achievment but none
loving Christian effort than this.

In the world. Look at the insides of

physiological signature.
Run your hands through your hair
and pr.ess finger tips on a piece of clear

"the left hand knoweth not what the
right hand doeth." They are distinctly

Salt, the Civilizer.
The use of salt as a necessary sup
plement to diet has had much influence
in shaping the civilization and explora
tion of the world. It is most prooable
that the oldest trade routes were cre
ted for the salt traffic, as salt and
incense formed the chief necessaries
f the ancient days. This was certain
ly the case with the caravan routes in
Libya and the Sahara, while the mines
of. north India were the center of a
large trade before the time of Alexan
iter.
Another interesting fact is that salt
has played .a considerable part in the
distribution of man. When It became
absolutely necessary to him, as it did
at an early stage of his development,
he was forced to migrate to places
where it could be obtained. This
brought him to the seashore, where he
gained his ideas of maritime commerce.
Lastly, the preservative effects of salt
on flesh food made long 'oceanic voy
ages possible and thus opened up the
world to commerce and civilization.

using two small bottles,I was complete

How Cowards Were Punished.
Many of the devices by which mili
tary indifference to life has been ma
tured and sustained are curious. In
ancient Athens the public temples
were closed to those who refused mili
tary service, who deserted their ranks
or lost their bucklers, while a law con
strained such offenders to sit for three
days in the public forum dressed in
the garments of women. Many a Spar
tan mother would stab her son who
came back alive from a defeat, and
such a man, if he escaped his* mother,
was debarred not only from public of
fices, but from marriage, exposed to the
blows of all who chose to strike him,
compelled to dress in mean. cloh .g
and to wear his beard neglige:- y
trimmed. . In the same way a horse
soldier who fled or lost his shield or re
ceivedr a wound in any save the front
part of the body was by law prevented
from ever afterward appearing in pub
lip.

"Some weeks ago during the severe

F!RST STRIKE ON RECORD.
It Occurred !n Romle and Took Place
In the Year 3o B. C.
Livy in his famous book, "The An
nals," 9, 3, relates ill the following
suggestive words the story of a singu
lar strike which occurred in Rome in
the year 30v B. C. and was probably
the first strike wer known:
That year occurred an event little
worthy of being related and which I
would pass in silence had it not ap
peared as involving religion. The flute
players, dissatisfied because the latest
censors had forbidden them to take
part in the banquet in Jupiter's temple,
according to the ainient custom, with
drew, every one of thetn. to Tibur, so
that nobody was left at tome to play
during the sacrifices. This incident
shocked the religious sentiment of the
senate. and the senators sent-messen
gers to invite the inhabitants of Tibur
to make every effort in order that the
players should be restored to the Ro
mans. The Tiburtines. having prom
ised not to neglect anything necessary
for that purpose. caused the flute play
ers to come to the place where the sen
ate met and exhorted the'm to go back
to Rome. Seeing that they could not
prevail upon them to do so, they em
ployed a stratagent in keeping with
their charneter.
On a day of festival under pretext
that music would increase the joy of
the feast every citizen invited the flute
players individually t: his house, and
wine, of which people of that profes
sion are usually fond, was given to
them in such quantities that they fell
into a (leep sleep. They were then
thrown into wagons and transported to
Rome. They only became aware of
what had happened on the day after,
when dawn surprised them lying on the
carts, which bad been left in the forum.
A large crowd had assembled, and they
were Induced to promise that they
iVould remain at Rome. The right of at
tending the banquets was restored to
these flute players.
The Richest man in the World.
Trhe richest man in the worbi can
nit have his kidneys replaced nor live
without them. so it is important not to
neglect tLese organs. If Foley's Kidney
Cure is taken at the first sign of dan
er, the symptoms will disappear and
our health will be restored, as it
trenghens and builds up these organs;
ts nothing else will. Oscar Bowman.
Lebanon, Kv., writes: "I have used
Foley's Kidney Cure and take great
pleasure in stating it cured me perma
ently of kidney disease. which certain
ly would have cost me my life." The
trant Co. Drug Store, successors to

The Firxt Electric Train.
The earliest public trial of a passen
ger 'boat driven by ain electric motor
was that conducted by Professor Ja
cobi of St. Petersburg in the year 183s,
though for four yr-ars previously he
had successfully experimented with
electric traction in the privacy of his
own grouids. The trial of Jacobi's
vessel took place on the Neva and was
witnessed by a vast crowd of people.
The boat was twenty-eight feet long
and ten feet wide and carried fourteen
persons.
It was not until four years later that
we find any record of a passenger car
riage driven by electricity on land, and
n this case the inventor was Alexan
:der Davidson of Edinburgh. The car
riage was sixteen feet long by seven
feet wide and was impelled for a mileI
and a half at the rate of four miles an
hour on the Edinburgh and Glasgow
railway.

A Latwyer's Trick.
Wnen Baron Bramwell was once sit.
ting on the crown side on the south
Wales circuit, counsel for the defense
in a certain case asked lenve to ad
dress the jury in Welsh. The case be
ing a simple one, permission was given
without demur. le said but very few
words. The baron also -did not think
much comment was necessary, but was
sQmewhat startled by a prompt .verdict
of acquittal.
"What was it," he afterward in
quired, "that Mr. L. said to the jury?"
"Oh, he just said: 'This case, gentle
men, lies in a nutshell. You see your
selves exactly how It stands. The
judge Is an Englishman, the prosecut
lig counsel is an Englishman, the com
plainant is an Englishman, but you are
Welsh, and I am Weish, and the pris
oner is Welsh. Need I say more? I
leave it all to you.' "
It is scarcely necessary to mention,
says the writer of "Some Legal Remi
niscences," that Baron Bramwell did
not allow the experiment to be repea;
ed of addressing the jury in a language
which he did not understand.
