TO CLEAN MATTING. To make soiled matting look fresh and bright prepare a pailful of warm water with a handful of salt and four tablespoonfuls of Ivory Soap shavings dissolved in it. With a clean cloth squeezed out of the mixture , wipe every breadth of the matting , rubbing soiled spots until they disappear. A WORD OF WARNING. There are many white soaps , each represented to be "just as good as the 'Ivory' ; " they ARE NOT , but like all counterfeits , lack the peculiar and remarkable qualities of the genuine. Ask for "Ivory" Soap and insist upon getting it. . COPYRIGHT 1003 DY THE PROCTER fc OAMOLE CO. CINCINNATI Box Elder Circuit.

CO. - _ - . , and Fulton Sts. , CHICAGO Church and Reade Sts. , NEW YORK RIDE A MONARCH AND KEEP IN FRONT Not much attention is often paid to the Ho Toriore to the Eqoei first symptoms of Eczema , but it is not long before the little redness begins to itch and burn. This is but the beginning , and will and of Itching Burning lead to suffering and torture almost unen durable. It is a common mistake to regard a roughness and redness of the skin as This Fearful Disease , merely a local irritation ; it is but an indica tion of a humor in the blood of terrible Eczema which is more than skin-deep , and can not be reached by local appli cations of ointments , salves , etc. , applied to the surface. The disease itself , the real cause of the trouble , is in the blood , although all suffering is produced through the skin ; the only way to reach the disease , therefore , is through the blood. Mr. Phil T. Jones , of Mixersville , Ind. , writes : "I had Eczema thirty years , and after a great deal of treatment my leg was so raw and sore that it gave me constant pain. It finally broke into a running sore , and began to spread and grow worse. For the past five or six years I have suffered untold agony and had given up all hope of ever being free from the disease , as I have been treated by some of the best physicians and have taken many blood medicines , all in vain. With little faith left I began to take S. S. S. , and it apparently made the Eczema worse , but I knew that this was the way the remedy got rid of the poison. Continuing S. S. S. , the sore healed up entirely , the skin became clear and smooth , and I was cured perfectly. " Eczema is an obstinate disease and can not be cured by a remedy which is only a tonic. Swift's Specific S. S. S. FOR THE BLOOD is superior to other blood remedies because it cures diseases which they can not reach. It goes to the bottom to the cause of the disease and will cure the worst case of Eczema , no matter what other treatment has failed. It is the only blood remedy guaranteed to be free from potash , mercury or any other mineral , and never fails to cure Eczema , Scrofula , Contagious Blood Poison , Cancer , Tetter , Rheumatism , Open Sores , Ulcers , Boils , etc. Insist upon S. S. S. ; nothing can take its place. Books on these diseases will be mailed free to any address by Swift Spe cific Company , Atlanta , Georgia. HE WON SOLELY ON HIS NERVE Itiicket-Shop Mau Went the Limit of Impudence. "Nerve IA the thing that wins , " said the Board of Trade man to his com panions at the club. "A man may have money , friends and Influence , but if he lacks that sublime quality he is shy the biggest card in the deck. Look at the case of that man who went out of here just now. There is no one in town who lives better than he does and his Investments furnish hlhi the coin to pay for all he wants without ever drawing on the principal. A few years ago he was worse than broke. He didn't have a dollar or a friend In fact , his sole capital consisted of his nerve and a bad reputation , and on the strength of that he started a bucket shop. In a building close to the Board of Trade he found an office furnished for the business where another shop had failed , and he put up a stiff front and leased it until the 1st of May. It was then the middle of the month , so he got it rent free for the first two weeks. He ordered a ticker put in and hired a boy to mark the blackboard , as he did not have to pay for eithei service until the end of the week , and then he opened for business. People began coming in to look at the quota tions , and after a while one man came up to the desk with $10 and bought 1,000 wheat. The market went right up and after there was a cent a bushe profit in the deal the customer came to the window to cash his ticket This might seem like an awkward situation , but his beautiful nerve never failed. He sized up his customer , and instead of springing any four flush about a partner who had gone to the bank or anything of that kind he just said quietly : 'Here is the ten you put up Now I haven't another dollar in the house , but if you will just go and sit down and look wise and happy like a man who has beat the game , why as soon as anybody else takes a whirl at it I'll give you your other ten out of what he puts up , but if you start roar ing about being robbed no one else will go against the game and I don't see how you will get your ten. ' "Well , the customer was staggered , but he saw it was worth $10 for him to keep still , and so he waited. Pretty soon another sucker tried to beat the stock market and backed his judgment with ? 20. The first man didn't wait long to get his coin and then he stayed there the rest of the day to ses how the thing came out. The market broke and nearly everyone who made a trade was on the wrong side , so the shop quit a little to the good that night , and it was a steady winner from that time on until the grand jury be gan to make things hot. Then he closed the place and has done nothing since but live on his income , and it is a big one too. " A Millionaire's Kusc. Aii American millionaire who has a .L.ce at Venice is more superstitious than his countrymen usually are. Re cently he invited to a umner a party of .i lends , including a Roman prince , one of the queen of Italy's maids of honor , and various sprigs of Italian aristocra cy. The Roman prince , however , failed him at the last moment , and the host refused to sit down to dinner on find ing that the company consisted of thirteen persons. He made various fruitful attempts to secure another uest , and at last , in despair , he an nounced that he intended to follow the custom of the Arabs , who always wait upon their guests , and eat their own. dinners by themselves afterward. The meal proved a great success. McCook Markets. Corrected Friday morning.
