S<J Q FORTY YEARS
OF CURES
experience and thorough testing have proven S. S. S to be the
King of blood purifiers and the greatest of all tonics. For nearly half a
century S. S. S. has been used in the treatment of blood and skin diseases
of every character, and so satisfactory have been the results that it is now
the best known and most widely used blood medicine on the market SS S
attracted attention as soon as it was placed on the market by curin
promptly those diseases for which it was recommended, and we have so
jealously guarded its first good reputation, by keeping it up to its standard
i*«3 Uani ” act ur e i that it now has the unequalled and pleasing record of
Forty Years Os Cures. " For Rheumatism, Catarrh, Scrofula,
S °f es ce j S ’ M a l aria . Skin Diseases, Contagious Blood Poison, and all
other diseases due to an impure or poisoned condition of the blood, there is
nothing that equals S. S. S. It counteracts and removes the germs and
poisons, cleanses the system of all unhealthy matter, cures the trouble per
manently, and restores strong, robust health. Where the blood is weak or
anaemic and unable to nourish the system as it should, S. S. S. supplies it
with the needed properties, and being a bracing, invigorating tonic it builds
up the entire system. It goes to the very bottom of all blood disorders and
in this way reaches deep-seated and inherited cases on which the ordinary
aarsaparillas and tonics have little or no effect. Not only is S. S S
certain in its results, but it is an absolutely safe medicine. It enjoys
the distinction of being the only blood medicine on the market that is guar
anteed purely vegetable. If you are in need of a blood remedy begin the
use of S. S. S., the medicine that has proven its worth by its record of fortv
years of cures. Book on the blood and anv medical advice you wish No

Diamond investments.
Diamonds have enhanced in value, as nearly every onr know s, more than
double in the 'ast eight or ten yeais. The opinion of those who are in a posi
tion to know, is that under natural conditions the maximum price is far from
being attained. Added to the natural conditions, such as thej[mines getting
deex)°r, etc. It is reported that the Deßeers people have obtained control of
Premier Mines, which were the only ones offering even slight competition.; It
is therefore very evident that in the near future you w'ill seejfprices much in-
Hated over those at present. Tennison says in his “In Memoran,” “Delay

TO STAND FOR
STATE RIGHTS
Attorneys-General Meet al
St. Louis Tomorrow.
MUSI ENTORCE STATE LAWS
Against Corporations and They Ob
ject To Too Much Federal Interfer
ence-Straight Talks On Living
Subjects Promised.
ST. LOUIS, MO., Sept. 28. (Spec
ial) —Results of an important and
far-reaching character are expected
to follow the conference to begin in
this city on Monday by the attorney
generals of more than a score of
states. The conference meets on the
invitation of Attorney General Had
ley of Missouri and the purpose, as
announced in the call, is to outline
ways and means to preserve state
rights and to prevent the usurpation
of such rights by the federal govern
ment, and to plan concerted action
for enforcing state laws regulating
trusts and other industral corpora
tions.
Among the States which, through
their attorneys general of their as
sistants, are co-operating in the con
ference are Mississippi, Ohio, Indi
ana, Kansas, Tenneessee, Texas, Illi
nois, Nebraska, Minnesota, lowa,
Kentucky, Wisconsin and Arkansas.
The attorneys general of a number of
other States, though unable to at
tend the conference, have expressed a
willingness to co-operate in the
movement.
Three great questions are to be
discussed during the two days of the
conference. They are: Regulation
of railroads, with special reference to
freight and passenger traffic; curb
ing of unlawful combinations of cap
ital and discussion of the apparent
jurisdictional conflict between the
State and Federal courts. Other ques
tions incident and minor to these
three ara to occupy attention.
The program includes the follow
ing subjects and speakers: “Capital
ization of Public Service Corpora
tions,’’ Attorney General Dana Ma
lone of Massachusetts; “State Regu
lation on Public Utilities,” Attorney
General William S. Jackson of New
York; “The Standard Oil Trust,” At
torney General Wade Ellis, of Ohi*o;
“Railroad Rate Regulation,” Attorney
General Herbert S. Hadley of Mis
souri.
The results of the conference will
be awaited with interest the country
over. It is pointed out that if the
attorneys general perfect a working
organization, exchanging plans and
placing the information .and evidence
gathered by one department at the
disposal of all. the trust bursting
operations will unquestionably be
facilitated and the fight made much
more equal than in the past. In ad
dition, the proposed organization is
expected to be of benefit in the secur
ing of uniform laws on a variety of
subjects.
A majority of the attorneys gener
al who will be present at the confer
ence, and practically all of those rep
resenting the States of the South and
middle West, express the belief that
the federal couft should not be
permitted to interfere in purely State
matters. They are of the opinion
that the State courts should be su
preme within the States, so long as
they do nothing in violation of the
Federal law. The representatives of
the Eastern States are not apparent
ly inclined so strongly to this view
of the mhatter and the difference of
opinion is likely to prove some inter
esting debate in theconference.
The idea of the conference origi
nated with ‘Assistant Attorney Gen
eral Lightfoot, of Texas, who has
charge of the anti-trust prosecution
in the .Lone Star State. A prelimi
nary meeting of the attorneys gener
al of sveral Western and Southern
States was held here in August,
when the general meeting was decid
ed on and the call issued. It is un
derstood that the plan has received
the unofficial indorsement of Presi
dent Roosevelt and Attorney General
Bonaparte, who believe that such an
organization will be of great benefit
in enforcing the anti-trust laws of
the various States and of the nation
al government.

HOW IS THIS FOR,
STRENUOSIT’
Grandmother To Enter Tei
Mile Swimming Contest.
IN HONOR PRESIDENT ROOSEVELT
Nearly Three Score Years Old Bui
Will Show the Young Man from the
White House What Real Energy
and Aquatic Skill Mean.
ST. LOUIS, MO., Sept 28. (Spec
ial) —Mrs. Lina Brandenburger,
nearly three score years of age and a
grandmother, is among the entries
received by the Missouri Athletic
club for its ten miles swimming race
to be held in the Mississippi next
Wednesday, on "the occasion of Pres
ident Roosevelt's visit.
She is 57, and the mother of a
prominent young physician of St.
Louis. Despite her age and sex, her
muscular development is wonderful
and it is possible that she will give
some of the young athletes of the
club a hard tussle for the first hon
ors in the swim.
Five years ago Mrs. Brandenburg
was almost an invalid, and took up
swimming to benefit her health, on
the advice of her son. Now she is
able to swim for hours at a stretch,
without becoming tired or exhausted,
and believes that, she can finish the
ten mile course without any trouble.
Mrs. Brandenburg declares that since
she took up swimming she has enjoy
ed the best of health and feels more
like a girl of 20 than an old woman
of 57.
