SKIN DISEASES
CAUSED BY HUMORS IN THE BLOOD
The skin is provided with countless pores and glands, through
which an evaporation is going on continually, day and night This is
nature’s method of regulating the temperature of our bodies, and pre
serving the natural appearance of the skin. These pores and glands
are connected with tiny veins and arteries through which they receive,

How the Legislature Will Vote.
Atlanta. Ga., May 4—According to
Information Issued here from the
Anti-Saloon League headquarters fif
ty-five counties have elected sixty
live representatives and eight sen

five of the Fenatort have declared
aroafternbly for prohibition, and fifty
of the representatives. One senator
says he will vote "wet" and eight
representatives declare similarly.

that any immediate change In this

Of course, the election of new blsh-

strong protest from one of
| the most prominent prohibitionists In
j Atlanta who did not care to person
ally figure in the controversy, but
who asked that his views be present
ed to the meeting.
The Statement Read.
The following was then impress
ively read by Dr. Landrum:
Will the friends of the Georgia pro
hibition law pause for a moment and
think?
Just a little attention to thinking,
a little let-up upon excitement tend
ing to partisan politics is what duty
calls for now.
Listen: What is the most danger
ous fact In front of prohibition to
day?
It lies ahead—about three years
ahead. No one informed of the situa
tion believes It within the range of
possibility that the legislature of 1909
now being elected, nearly one-half
already elected, will or can ‘make
any changes In the prohibition law
not sanctioned by Its friends.
The pledge of both candidates for
governor stands fast In the face of
any changes In the law.
The candidates for the legislature
In a large majority of the counties
are all prohibitionists up to date and
the Issue Is not being drawn on pro
hibition in the legislative contests at
it three years from now, what?
ir gubernatorial contest, will be
ind.
It Is dollars to doughnuts that there
will be a candidate for governor on
a local option platform. If Governor
8ml£h Is elected In the present cam
paign this candidate will claim to be
the champion of hfs policies—but on
a local option platform. It will be a
national inheritance. Governor Smith
has never said that he was converted
to the principles of state prohibition
as against local option prohibition.
He will not say so. Why? Beacause
he Is not converted. The Atlanta
Journal has not been converted elth-
Mr. Reuben Arnold, the Hoke
Smith orator, has not been convert-
Mr. Robert Griffin, the chair
man of the Hoke Smith Fulton Club,
has not been converted. Mr. Thom
as Felder, the Senate antl-prohibl-
tlon filibuster, the Hoke Smith lead
er In Bibb county, ha? not been con
verted. These forces will be behind
the candidate for governor three
years from now on a local option
platform.
The prohibitionists will have a can
didate standing for the nermanence
of the Georgia law. Here they are
stripped for the race. The issue Is
clearly drawn—a return to the local
option system or a continuance of
stato prohibition.
Now listen!
If Hoke Smith Is reelected the
change of efur voting system from
the county unit plan to the popular
vote plan, for which he Is responsi
ble and for which he now stand*,
will be Indorsed and fixed upon us.
Our prohibition candidate for gov
ernor will face the desperate fact
that six counties with large dties
where the whiskey forces predomi
nate will be able under Hoke Smith’s
reform of our voting system to out
vote more than forty rural counties
in Georgia where the prohibition
strength lies.
This Is not fancy. It Is fact. It
Is such a fact that longheaded pro
hibitionists are blind indeed If they
do not see It. The real peril to the
permanency of the Georgia prohibi
tion law is as clear as noonday to a
man who thinks a minute. It is thl*
unfortunate change of our voting
system by Hoke Smith that stares
us In the face. It will be seen thr'*e
years from now—when It Is too la re.
If Joseph iM. Brown Is elected he
stands doubly pledged to give us
back our county unit system, which
reduces the big whiskey counties to
equality with the rural counties.
If Hoke Smith Is elected the tre
mendous disadvantage of the rural
Counties will be confirmed and fixed
fast on us. The man who cannot see
this now will be certain to see It lat-
ECZEMA FORTY YEARS.
X want to tell you the great
good I received from the use of
S. 8. 8. I am now 75 year* old
and had suffered with Eczema
for forty years, and oould find
nothing to oure me until I tried
8. 8. 8. I suffered Intensely
with the itohing and burning;
pustule* would form from
which there flowed a stloky
fluid; crusts would come on the
■kin, and when scratched off,
the skin was left as raw as a
piece of beef. I suffered agony
the long years I was afflicted,
but when I used 8. S. S. I found
a perfect cure. There has
never been any return of the
ra *
pores of the skin and takes root in
the blood. This causes a breaking
out which remains for a time and
then disappears, but returns at
certain seasons of each year.
The cause of all skin troubles can be traced to some kind of humor
in the blood. Smooth, healthy skins are only possible where the circu
lation is pure; and therefore the cure of any skin affection can only-
come through a thorough cleansing of this vital fluid. Salves, washes,
lotions, etc., are valuable only for their ability to keep the skin clean,
allay the itching, and tend to reduce inflammation; they cannot correct
the trouble because they do not reach the blood. .
S. S„. S. cures skin diseases of every character and kind, because it
purifies the blood. It goes down into the circulation and removes the.
humors that are causing the trouble, builds up the weak, acrid blood,
and completely cures*'
Eczema, Acne, Tetter,
Salt Rheum, Poison.
Oak, Poison Ivy, and
all eruptions and dis
eases of the skin.
When S. S. S. has.
driven the humor from
the blood, and cooled
and cleansed the acid-
heated circulation,
every symptom passes away, the skin is again nourished with rich,
healthful blood, and comfort is given to disease-tortured skins.
