.Mr. L. J. Clark , of Orange CourthouseYa. , writes :
" For six years I had an obstinate , running ulcer on my Pi
ankle , which at times caused me intense suffering. I was
30 disabled for a long while that I was wholly unfit for
business. One of the best doctors treated me constantly ,
iut did me no good. I then tried various blood remedies , E
-without the least benefit. S. S. S. was so highly recom
mended that I concluded to try it , and the effect was
sronderful. It seemed to get right at the seat of the F
disease and force the poison out , and I was soon com-
gletely cured. " Swift's Specific
S. S. FOR THE BLOOD
drives out every trace of impurity in the blood , and in this way
cures permanently the most obstinate , deep-seated sore or ulcer. It
is the only blood remedy guaranteed purely vegetable , and con
tains not a particle of potash , mercury , or other mineral. S. S. S.
cures Contagious Blood Poison. Scrofula , Cancer , Catarrh , Eczema ,
Rheumatism , Sores , Ulcers. Boils , or any other blood trouble. Insist
upon S. S. S. ; nothing can take its place.

SAMOAN CROWING SNAKE.
Great Natural Curiosity Tbut Infest *
JungR'H of Hcuutlful Isliiiid.
There are no venomous snakes In
Samoa , always excepting the snake
which crows. In proof of the existence
of this reptile there may be offered the
testimony of witnesses , eye-witnesses.
ear-witnesses. Any quantity of Samoans -
ans , and white people as well , will give
you detailed accounts of how they
heard the snake in the dense recesses
of the bush. They tell how their ears
caught the sound of stealthy move
ments in the tree tops overhead , and
how the faint sound stopped when they
halted to listen closer , or how it began
as soon as they resumed the march.
Inevitably the narrator closes his ac
count by a description of his escape ;
he either overtook some other wander
er in the bush and found security In
numbers , or else he made particularly
good time homeward , or remembered
a charm which had much power. When
for any of these reasons the snake
found he was to lose his victim he al
tered his silent tactics. He could be
heard thrashing the trees and crowing
like a rooster , only many times as loud ,
and as he sought some other part of
the forest the crowing was frequently
repeated , until at last it vanished in
the distance. When asked more par
ticularly as to his crowing , the Samoans -
ans say that it is exactly like the
crowing of roosters. There is an equal
host of eye-witnesses , men who have
seen crowing snakes. They never vary
from one another in their descriptions
of what they have seen. Except for
one spot of special conditions it Is nev
er seen on the ground , but always on
the tops of the highest trees , gliding
from tree to tree with remarkable ra
pidity. It is long and slender , rarely
is one spoken of as under two arm
spans or twelve feet , seldom is one de
scribed as exceeding twice that meas
urement. Its color is spoken of as
uniform , a steel blue or slate , and free
from spots or other markings. When at
rest it is difficult to distinguish it from
the branch on which it may be stretch
ed ; when in motion it goes far too
fast for any detail to be observed.
