„ JJ1® jS'J?e a.U ston diseases can be traced to some humor or acid in

impurities.^ When the blood is infected with acrid or unhealthy matter it
cannot perform its natural work of nourishing the skin, regulating its tem-
preserving its normal softness, pliability and healthfulnesa.
-instead it irritates and inflames the delicate fibres and tissues around the
pores and glands and produces some of the many forms of skin disease,
^ne itching and stinging so often accompanying skin affections are produced
deposit^ from the blood of the acrid humors with which it- is filled,
into tne sensitive membranous flesh lying just beneath the outer covering,
ana surrounding the countless nerves, pores and glands. This explains why
f \ *ke outer skin affords no relief from the itching and burning.

causing the trouble, builds up the weak, acrid blood, and permanently cures
•very variety of skin affection. Local applications can only soothe: they
never cure because they do not reach the blood. S. S. S. goes right into the
circulation, reaches the trouble and cures it by removing the cause. Book

This was the conversation between
two standing on the Texas & Pacific
depot platform at Weatherford Friday
morning when motor car No, 11 pulled
into the station from Mineral Wells on
its way to F'ort Worth.
It was the first time the questioner
had ever seen any kind of a car run-
ning without the motive power fur-
nished by an engine. He had never
been to the t° 8ee the eloctric cars
and when the torpedo looking motor
car came sliding noiselssly into the
station he was somewhat disturbed
Passengers arriving in Fort Worth ot

weeks ago was taken to Fort Worth
for that purpose.
Her brothers, D. P. Hays, of Fort
Worth, W. J. Hays of Merkel, and a
cousin George Eagle, of Fort Worth,
were here to attend the funeral. Mrs
E. M. Crawford, representative of the

Big Springs and several of his as-

Tvnes and Mo'pin, all of Big Springs,
were among the out of town parties
who attended the funeral. Mrs. Mays
leaves a husband, and four little chil-

Mrs. Dodd lias had the children with
her in this city since their mother
