THRILLING EXPERIENCE
Os Two Adventurous Spirits In
Franco-German War.
1 he balloon did not cut as big
1 figure in the Hispano-Ameri-
Cau war as it did in the Franco-.
German conflict.
Os all the voyages of that time
none could compare for exciting
R nd perilous incidents with that
of the well known aeronaut M.
adar, who left I'ours for Paris

true character and object of the
last arrival, cried out that their
plucky compatriot was lost. But
they were mistaken.
Nadar had scrambled from the
car up the network of the airship
after the first shot from the ene
my to stop a hole made in the
tissue. Presently he descended
to the car as the balloon righted
itself, and throwing out a quan
tity of ballast, caused it to rise
higher and higher.
Then seizing his rifle he fired
shots with rapid succession into
the Prussians, which suddenly
split and sank to the earth. On
reaching the ground a detach
ment of Uhlans, who had been
watching the combat from the
plain, picked up the German
aeronauts and rode off to the
Prussian outposts. Nadar then
alighted in safety within the
girdle of the Paris forts, meeting
with an enthusiastic ovation for
his victory in the first balloon
duel.

Beware
01 the Knife.
Mr. Lincoln Nelson, of Marshfield, Mo.,
writes: “For six years I have been a
sufferer from a scrofulous affection of
the glands of my neck, and all efforts
of physicians in Washington, D. C.,
Springfield, 111., and St. Louis failed to
reduce the enlargement. After six
-months’ constant treatment here, my
physician urged me to submit to a re
moval of the gland. At this critical mo
ment a friend recommended S.S.S.,
and laying aside a deep-rooted preju
dice ayaiust all patent medicines, I be
gan its use. Before I had used one bot
tle the enlargement began to disappear,
and now it is entirely gone, thongu lam
not through with my second bottle yet.
Had I only used your S.S.S. long ago,
I would have escaped years of misery
and saved over $150.”
This experience is like that of all who
suffer with deep-seated blood troubles.
The doctors can do no good, and even
their resorts to the knife prove either
fruitless or fatal. S.S.S. *is the only
real blood remedy ; it gets at the root of
the disease and forces it out perma-
(guaranteed purely vegetable)

it cures the most obstinate cases of

root of the disease and forces it out per
