CANCEi
Surgical operations and flesh destroying plasters are useless, painful and dangerous, and besides, never cure Cancer.
No matter how often n cancerous sore is removed, another comes at or near the same point, and always in a worse form.
Does not this prove conclusively that Cancer is a blood disease, and that it is folly to attempt to cure this deep-seated, dangerous
(blood trouble by cutting or burning out the sore, which, after all, is only an outward sign of the disease a place of exit for
I the poison ?
I Cancer runs in families through many generations, and those whose ancestors have been afflicted with it are liable at any
J time to be striclcen with the deadly malady.
Only Blood Diseases can be Transmitted from One Generation to Another

To cure a blood disease like this you must cure the entire blood system remove every trace of the jxrison. Nothing cures
chancer effectually and permanently but S, S, S.
S. S. S. enters the circulation, searches out and removes all taint, and stops the formation of cancerous cells. No mere tonic
or ordinary blood medicine can do this. S. S. S. goes down to the very roots of the disease, nnd forces out the deadly poison,
allowing the fore to heal naturally and tiermaucntlv. S. S. S. at the same time nitrifies the blood and builds tin the ieneral health.

'I' run n Ion I It ii I c.
The Irish pcoplo of Omaha paid homage to
tho memory of St. Patrick last night In an
appropriate celebration of tho anniversary
of tho saint's birth. Tho affair wus a suc
cessful ono In every respect nnd was given
under tho auspices of the Ancient Order of
Hibernians. Osthorf's hall was crowded with
a representative audience of Omaha Irish
people and the Intercttlng program furnished
entertainment in abundance.
John Rush ofllclnted as chairman nnd
made the opening address. He said that
there nro two days In tho cnlcndar year
which Irishmen never forgot to celebrate
tho Fourth of July and St. Patrick's birthday.
"Hut wo do not celebrate the queen's birth
day," he ndded. Continuing, Mr. Hush said:
"I was taught from early childhood to bate
with utter detestation England nnd her
queen. This feeling of hatred has grown
with me, and now wcro I to renew my bap
tlsmnl vows I should renounce Satan and
England. It Is easy for tho Irishman to
don the garb of American citizenship. There
Is no regret, no scruple, no mental reserva
tion. "I do not wish to bo understood as saying
that I despise the English subjects of the
queen or that I am against Englishmen. I
hold tho averngo Englishman in high es
teem ns a manly, courageous, good citizen.
I hate only England's imethod of governing
Ireland. Every man, woman and child of
tho Irish rnco shares with mo this Intense
hatred as a result of tho centuries of oppres
sion, tyranny and robbery. Not until
England makes full reparation for the hein
ous crimes sho has committed will we ever
forglvo her.
Sympathy for liners,
"It is not unnatural that wo sympathize
with the Hoers. Wo nppiaud the patrlotlBm
of the Ilocrs. Neither ancient nor modern
history furnishes a parallel of the heroism
and bravery of this handful of people fight
ing for their country, their rights and their
Ood."
Mr. Hush spoko with regret that n num
ber of tho leading English olllccrs now cam
paigning In South Africa are what ho termed
"rencgado Irishmen." "It Is also a deplor
ablo fact." ho said, "that so many of tho
rank nnd fllo aro of our nationality. Ono
reaches tho conclusion, however, in contem
plating this sad plcturo that these Irish
regiments aro being hurled lo tho front on
every Imnglnary pretext and If tho war lasts
long enough they will nil bo annihilated.
Any Irishman who Joins tho English army
unless driven thereto by starvation should
be treated like a dog and nhot down as
such."
Following his opening address Mr. Hush
Introduced tho several participant In the
program. The speech of tho evening was
mado by Hev. P. V. McCarthy, whose sub
ject was "St. Patrick." Tho fiery eloquence
, or tho speaker nnd tho popularity of the
1 subject presented aroused his auditors to a
i stato of great enthusiasm and tho entire ad-
dress was frequently punctuated with ener-
cctlc nnnlause.
j Tho other numbers on tho program, all of

NKW YOUK, March 17.-Maud P. the
fnmous trotter, died at Schultz farm, Port
Chester, N. Y., this morning. She was
brought to the farm from New York n
week ago and It was Intended to use her
for breeding purposes. She, was sick when
sho urrlved nnd hnd been under the care
of a veterinary surgeon. She gradually be
cumo worse, however, nnd efforts to save
her llfo were without avail. Maud S was
owned by the Hubert Bonner estnto and
wus StI years old. Her trotting record of
2:0S4 whs made In 1SK5,
CINCINNATI. .March 17. C'antnln George
N. Stone, now at the head nf the Bell Tele
phono system of Cincinnati, was tho pur
chaser of Maud S when she was a 2-year-old,
owned 'by .Mr. Bughcr of Glendale, O.
Tho price was nomlnnl nnd It was not until
sho had been put in training that any ex
pectation of great results wns formed. It
was then found that she possessed In addi
tion fo all tho speed requisites that other
requisite of good senso and agreeablo tem
por. Sho was actually loved by all who
formed her acquaintance and after she be
camo "queen of the turf" it Is not exag
geration to say that the feeling of the train
ers toward her wns akin to worship. It was
at Lexington, Ky.. where sho won her tlrst
honors ns a 4-year-old by trotting a mile in
2:17?. Her next record-breaker was at Chi
cago, when sho mado it in 2:134. As a B-year-old
sho still further reduced this to
2:114, 2:10 and at Buffalo to 2:l0Vj.
Then began efforts by others to beat lier
record. Finally at Narragansett Bay .1 1 C
mado tho then startling record of 2:004 and
deposed Maud S from her position ot queen
of tho turf. But the reign of her rlvnl wub
short. Twenty-four hours nftcr J I C mado
his record Maud S ut Cleveland mado the
new record of 2:0S4 nnd regained her lost
title. After sho passed Into Mr. Bonner's
hands sho still further lowered her record,
but wns later eclipsed by tho still lower
records mado possible by pneumatic Urea
nnd other devices for increasing speed. To
thoso who know her she never lost her
place as queen of tho trotting turf.
