If an old aora existed simply because the flesh was diseased at that
particular spot, It would be an easy matter to apply some remedy directly
to the (dace that would kill the germs; or the diseased flesh might bo
removed by it surgical operation and a cure offectod. But the very tact
that old aoros resist every loan of local or external treatment, and even
return after t>eing out away, shows that back of them is a morbid cause
which must l>e removed before a cure can result. Just as long as the
pollution continues in the blood, tho ulcer remains an open cesspool for tne
deposit of impurities which tho circulation throws off. S. S. S. cures Old Sores
by purifying tho blood. It romovos every trace of impurity and taint trom
the circulation, and thus completely does away with the cause. When
B 3. S. has cleansed the blood, the sore Logins to heal, and It Is not a
surface cure, but the healing process begins at tho bottom; soon tho lis
charge ceases, tho inflammation leaves, and the place tills in with firm
healthy flesh. Under tho purifying and tonic effects of 8. S. 8. tho system
is built up. and those whose health has boon impaired by the drain and
worry of an old sore will bo doubly be tieti tod by its use. Book on Sores

THE chief enemy of a
piano ia climate, par
ticularly the South
ern climate, where
extremes of temperature are
so great and dampness so
generally prevalent.
It soon plays rack and
ruin with any piano not built
to stand such conditions.
But here is a piano that
does meet them—the
fßlatbusbeh
BMano
Weather-proof from tuning
pins to case. No matter hew
hot, cold, dry or damp the
room maybe, the Mathushek
never loses its “pitch ’ ’ or tone,
because the tuning pins are
so constructed as to al-
ways insure a uniformity
of tension of the strings.
The sounding board and
case cannotwarp, swell,
crack or split.
These features, born
of 40 years experience,
make the Mathushek the
piano for the South.
Style 20, shown here, is well worth S6OO.
Its price Is StVO. Terms $25.00 down and
as llti.e thereafter at SIO.OO a month.
These are practically rental terms.

! grounds in Hancock county Thursday

jin over abundance, waa an iiacrr..,- 1
I ing feature of the day, but not more j
so or more enjoyed than the "feast
of reason” supplied at the lnslance of
Congressman T. W. Hardwick by
three representatives of the United
States department of agriculture. The;
meeting was presided over both morn- j
Ing and afternoon by President J. N. |

spread and absorbing interest being
manifested throughout the length and
breadth of the country in the sub
ject. of road Improvement, and told of
tho marvelous rapidity with which
every community is trying to soive
the problem. He also described ap
proved methods of road building, and
his address greatly quickened the in
terest of Hancock farmers in this im
portant cudrent problem.
The next speaker was Helmar Rai
bild, whose name revealed his Danish
nationality'. Mr. Raiblld is expert as
sistant In the dairy division of the
U. 3. department of agriculture. He
told how the lands of Denmark under
Intelligent dairying had come to be
worth from $350 to SI,OOO per acre.
He believes that every farmer and
dairyman could well afford to spend
one day out of every week in think
ing ami planning, and, that the remain
ing five days work would be Ihe more
profitable therefrom.

under the auspices and supervision of
the U. 3. department of agriculture,
was explained and discussed by J.
W, Willis, who Is iu charge of this

gia. He told this work was borne
out of the necessities brought about
by tho boll weevil In the west, and
how the farmers are now taking hold
of this work in many sections under
the directions and close supervision
of the department of agriculture, and
profiting thereby. A number of very
practical questions bearing upon ag
riculture were asked by farmers in
the audience, all of which were in
terestingly discussed and answered
by the speaker. The Impression made

co-operative demonstration work In
the Tenth Congressional district, and!
the farmers of his district may con
fidently expect his efforts to bring
to thorn their full share of any bene
fits the government may have to be
stow. No congressman is looking
more closely or more effectively after
the practical interests of hts consti
tuency. Mr. Hardwick was present
at this rally, but did not speak. The
closing speech was made by presi
dent J. N. Rogers, of the Hancock

j it is usually that farmers cannot even

BECOMES A BURGLAR;
DOESN’T PAY,’ HE SAYS
Only Made His Room and
Board Until Caught Dur
ing Kis First “Good”
Case.
NEW YORK—"I lost my position
as a clerk and could find nothing to
do. It was starvation on one side or
robbery on the other. I took the lat
ter course. But it does not pay. I
have never made more than my meals
and room rent since I began robbing,
and today, which was the only good
day I had at the game. I was
caught.”
This statement was made to Magis
trate Breen yesterday in the Harlem
police court by Richard Carlin, a
young man arrested for daylight rob
beries. The young fellow was so
dapper and well dressed that at first
the detectives who were following
him were disinclined to believe any
thing wrong about him.
The police believe that in Carlin
they have the real "gentleman burg
lar," who has been getting away with
no end of loot on the upper West
Side and lower Harlem. He was
caught yesterday through the work of
Detectives Skehan and Ryan.
Louis Schnftzler, of No. 368 St.
Nicholas avenue, identified the pris
oner as the partner of Thomas La
mond, a burglar, who Is now serving
two years in prison for robbing
Schnltzler’s flat several months ago.
Carlin denied having been Lamond's
partner.
He said he was formerly a clerk in
a wholesale grocery house, and that
he lost his position.
Robberies of flats closed while the
occupants were on their vacations
have become frequent of late. The
detectives followed Carlin for some
time as he entered various apart
mnt houses. At last they demanded
to see what he carried in his valise.
What they saw convinced them he
was a thief.

BABY FALLS FOUR
STORIES, BOUNCES,
ESCAPES UNINJURED
NEW YORK. —To fall four stories
and escape practically unhurt wa3 the
thrilling experience of two-year-old
Catherine Donovan, who lives with
her parents at No. 260 West Sixty
eighth street. A doctor who exam
ined the child said that she would
probably be at play again tomorrow.
The child was in the room with
her sister, Anna, five years old, and
both were about to go to the store
wflth iheir mother, Mrs. James Dono
van. Anna tried to rescue her little
sister, but was too late.
Little Catherine’s curiosity was re
sponsible for the aocldent. Standing
on a chair close to a front window,
she began poking at the window

how strong it was. Her mother was
in the room at the time, but paid

Suddenly the screen gave way and
Mrs. Donovan turned just in time to
see the baby disappear over the win

expecting to find her dead. Instead,
however, baby was very much alive,
and wedged tightly between two beer
kegs, was crying lustily.
In her fail the child had struck,
first, the shoulder of a woman who
was leaning out of a window on the
floor below, and then an iron shed
