New MEHTOD DISCOVERED.
Treatment
Bolling Water Uied In
of Turnon.
New York, Dec. 6.—After tests cov
ering two years, a physician of this
city has announced a new method for
treating tumors. It is by the use of
boiling water. He uses a syringe
with a metal cylinder and adjustable
piston, with needles of varying size.
Using the ordinary asceptic precau
tions, water Is taken directly from a
cauldron and injected into the sub
stance of the tumor. Tho water must
be at a temperature of from 190 to
212 degrees Fahrenheit, or even high
er.
The water, he says, should be hot
.enough to coagulate the blood and tho
albuminoids of the tissues Immediate
ly. but it should not be forced In
so extremely hot, and under such
pressure as to scald and produce a ne.
crosis of the skin. During the treat
ment the patient is put under the In
fluence of narcotics.

Madrid, Dec. 6.—King Alfonso to

Burglarious Attempt Failed.
Pittsburg, Dec. 6.—An unsuccessful
attempt was made to burglarize the
National Bank of Freedom, Pa., early
today. The burglars effected an en
trance to the bank, and attempted
to blow open the safe with nitre-glyc
erine, but the noise of the explosions
awakened the residents In the neigh
borhood and the robbers fled without
accomplishing their purpose, leaving
$18,000 behind. The explosions shat
tered all the plateglaas in the bank
building as well as the windows of
neighboring houses.

especially painful and severe when con
fined to the hands, which often become so
badly affected that the sufferer is unable
to perform the lightest work. This, like
aU other types of Eczema, is due to add
poisons in the blood and not to local
causes. The trouble is more than skin
deep, and washes, soaps, powders and
salves nor anything else applied to the
surface can possibly do more than soothe
the burning and itching or relieve tempo
rarily the inflammation and pain.
It is the acids thrown off by the blood
and which are forcing their way through
the pores that cause the skin to harden,
:1c and bleed, and produce the irrita
tion and soreness.
S. S. S. neutralizes
these add poisons
and cleanses the blood
of all irritating tub-
stances and humors
and does it promptly and effectually.
S. S. S. purities and invigorates the thin
add blood, and bnilda up the entire sys
tem; then the unsightly eruption and sores
heal, the akin becomes smooth and soft,
and all signs of the Eczema disappear.
