Cancerous
Ulcers
At firt liate nolli
injr alout them to
indicate their tnic
nature. Tbev look
like ordinary enrcs and are usually treated
as such, some simple salve, wash or powder
being uscl in the bop of drying tfiem up
md stopping the discharge; but while the
place may temporarily scab over, it again
Inflames and festers, becoming a bad
or worse than ever. After awhile the
deadly poison begin to eat into the sur
rounding flesh and the eore spreads with
frlghtfulrapidity. . Then the sharp shoot
ing pains, which distinguish the cancerous
from the common ulcer, are felt, and the
otinfortunate patient ii brought face to face
with the moit dreaded of all maladies, a
canceroua tilcer.
Whenever an tilcer of any kind is alow in
healing it should be closely watched, par
ticularly if there is an inherited predispo
sition to cancer. Often times a malignant,
stubborn ulcer starta from a boil, wart,,
mole, bruise, blister or pimple and at last
develops into cancer. For when the blood is
tainted and the germs and seeds of cancer
are implanted in the system, you cannot
tell when nor where the deadly poison is
going to break out.
S. S. S. cures these cancerous ulcers and
chronic sores, by driving out of the system
all the morbid and unhealthy matter that
keeps the ulcer irritated and discharging.
It purifies and strengthens the blood, en
abling it to throw off the germs and poisons,
thus checking the further formation of can
cer cells, and when ail
impurities have been
removed from the
blood and system the
ulcer heals naturally
and permanently.
. - All ulcers, even the smallest, ahould be
looked upon with suspicion and treated
promptly before they become canceroua.
. S. S. S. is a purely vegetable remedy, a
perfect blood purifier, and an invigorating
ionic. Write for our free book on Cancer.

50UR STOrtACH (Acid Dyspepsia.)
Raw Iteeasalaed ae tke (ana ( a
rloae Diseases.
Acid Dyspepsia, commonly railed heart
burn or smir stomach. Is s farm ot lsdlgea
tlon resulUng from fermentation ef the
food. Ths rtsmsch being too weak to
promptly dlgnst It. the food remains until
fomentation begins, filling ths stomach
with gas. and a hitler, sour, burning taste
tn the mouth Is often present. This con
dition soon becomes chronic and being an
every day occurrence la given bnt lit Us at
tention. Because Dyspepsia la not immedi
ately fatal, many people do nothing for the
trouble.
It Is bow well known among able physi
cians that the whole constitution Is gradu
ally undermined and weakened, that the
nerves and vital organs are seriously af
fected by any form of dyspepsia. This is
plain, aa every orgnn. every nerve In the
body Is nourished by the blood snd the
blood Is replenished from the food digested.
If the food Is properly digested ths blood is
pure, the nerves stesuly, bnt If supplied
from a bout, fermenting, decs ring mass the
blood la vitiated, poisoned and the result Is
shown In sleeplessness, lack of energy, poor
appetite, nervousness. Every trifle Is mag
nified and the dyspeptic sees nothing but
the dark aids of everything.
Within a recent period a remedy has been
discovered prepared solely to cure dyspepsia
snd stomach troubles. It Is known as
StnarVe Dyspepsia Tablets and it Is now
becoming rapidly used and preacrlbed as a
radical cure for every form of dyspepsia.
It la not claimed to cure anything except
dyspepsia and stomach weakness la Its
various forms, but for this It has been
shown to be unequalled. The eminent spec
ialists. Reed and O'Leary, have recently
ststed that they considered Stuart's Dys
pepsia Tablets an unfailing specific for dis
orders of the digestive organs, and the re
markable cures made In cases of long
stsnding dyspepsia proves that this remedy
has extraordinary merit.
Stuart's Dyspepsia Tablets have been
placed before the public and are sold by
druggists everywhere at GO cents per pack
age, and while it promptly and effectually
restores a vigorous digestion, at the same
time la perfectly harmless and will not in
jurs (ho most delicate stomach, but on the
contrary by giving perfect digestion,
strengthens tho stomach. Improves the ap
petite and makes life worth living.

In
Public Schools
The severe weather has brought a serious
problem to many of the. prtnolpals and
teachers of ths city schools, not only In
necessitating the. absence of many of the
poorer children, but In' bringing to their at
tention the suffering of the many little
ones, too young to be 'in school, that are
In a large measure their , charges. In
a modest way the teachers are each year
doing a missionary work" among ths poor
ot their respective dlstrlots that 'not only
saves the sensltivs feelings of many who
are In temporary distress, . but 1n quietly
providing for the children o( less deserving
and at the aame time stimulating their
prlda to do for themselves. , How much
hss been accomplished by ths efforts of
the teachers no one but themselves can
appreciate or understand.
In speaking of thla work a principal of
ons ot the large schools on ths south side
said the other day:' "As soon as the cold,
snowy weather begins. I go carefully over
the absent list every day to Bee If tt In
cludes any that may be out far want of
clothing and experience has taught me
that this list Includes many who must not
not be allowed to know that I even sus
pect their need. I have each of my teach
ers watch their children and keep a list
of those whoee shoes are thla or whose
clothing Is Insufficient for cold weather and
rhen these children are absent we visit
their homes and see to It that they are
made as comfortable as possible and re
turned to school. To accomplish this we
frequently have te clothe aa entire fam
ily, as the garments will be passed on to
other members tn spite ot us."
A large degree of, pride exists among
the teachers, too, la the care ot these poor
families, but the'cbeerful esrnestness with
which many of them have trudgad through
ths snow during; the last week, from the
cloae of school until dark Indicates some
thing mors than pride. One prtnolpal In
the north part of the city reported twenty
seven children, all under 14 years of age,
and all cousins who are being clothed and
partly fed through the efforts ot the teach
ers and pupils of her school. Ia another
north side school the principal, with savea
of her teachers, haa apsnt several evenings
ot late mending and making ovar clothing
that has been brought ta to suit the neees
sltles. In several eases garments hsvs beea
exchanged for thoae from another neigh
borhood that they might not be recognised
by the children.
Unfortunately, this humane work kas not
beea done In all of the echools. even where
U is necessary, but there are tew build
ings la tbe city where some effort has not
beea made and tnaoy a pair at shoes and
other necessary garments have been sup
plied at the expense of the teachers.
The comparatively new industry, ' bask
etry, Is Just now entering all circles and
attracting the attention of educators all
over the country as a means of hand and
brain development. Since the opening of
the schools lsst fall the teachers have
taken It up enthusiastically and a doxen or
more classes of teachers and pupils hsvs
been formed for Its study outside of school
hours. The principal materials used in the
work are raffia and rattan. Raffia, which
Is a product ot the Madagascar palm, .
known chiefly to us aa used by florists In,
tying plants, Is rich In its possibilities.
Rattsn Is ot the palm variety and grows
in the forests of India, twining about the
trees and hanging In festoons sometimes to
the length of 600 feet, though seldom over
an inch 'In diameter. Basket workera sre
not dependent upon these materials, for
willows have lent themselves to the mak
ing of serviceable baskets, and even the
reeds, twigs, vines and grasses have found
a use. .Pretty effects are being produced
by coloring both raffia and rattan and In
working with the vegetable dyea, other
dyea have been discovered when lesst ex
pected. Tbe meaning and symbolism of the
designs on baskets Is one of tbe most fasci
nating and Important branches of ths
study. Not only is there a distinct symbo
lism In the design woven Into ths basket,
but In many cases the baskets themselves
are symbols. In basketry was the dswn ot
mathematics to ths aboriginal worker. To
prepare splints all of exactly the sams
width and then to weave them according
to perfect measurement this was excellent
art training for both the eyes and hands.
Dr. Otis T. Mason hss said: "Careful
study ot the homely occupstlons of ssvsgs
women Is tbe best guide to thelrshsre in
creating the esthetic arts. Whether In tho.
two Americas or In the heart of Africa, or
among the peoples of Oceantca, the per
petual astonishment Is not the Isck ot art,

Basketry has an educational aspect.
Kindergarteners tell us that tbe principles
Involved in ths necessary training ef the
eye and hand are of real value to the little
ones; their skill and ingenuity are brought
Into exercise, scops is given to ths Inven
tive fseulties and there are few children
whe do not delight In the power of making
something likely to be need by someone
they love. The kindergarten gives excel

are being neglected In this regard and edu
cators are conatantly agitating the matter
Basketry and weaving as connected with
the study of primitive peoples Is a phase
of manual training and It' Is claimed to be
the foundation of occupations that will de
velop hand and brain power and will result
In products of some practical and even ar
tistic worth. "Be ready to fill a plaoe and
sooner or later you will be wanted In such
a position." It Is needless to add that,
roused by ths demands of the time and In
spired by tbe possibilities in store, this
line of work hss been pursued wt'Ji a vigor
and Interest characteristic of ths Omaha
'teachers. 1
The suggestion haa been made by one of
the teachers that an annual exhibition be
Inaugurated ot the work ot the city echools;
that it be held down town, where It may
be convenient to all,, and especially that
the children be encouraged to attend It. So
much of the regular work Is now being done
on paper and with Ink that ample speci
mens might be selected without any extra
effort. There are now being carried In the
varioua grades a variety of work that Is bo
little understood by ths majority ot school
patrons that tt frequently meets with the
criticism of being superfluous instead of
ths encouragement and appreciation that H
deserves.
Many other efforts are being made among
the pupils that are wholly misunderstood
by many parents, and It is believed that tt
the results of this training, together with
ths vsrlous steps as accomplished In tbe
different gradea, might he exhibited and
Intelligently explained to the patrons,
teachers and pupils would receive their
much-needed encouragement and help In
place ot the frequently severe criticism
that they now have. "It would be a reve
lation to a good ahare of the parenta,
even those who are sufficiently well edu
cated themselves to appreciate tt. It they
were to carefully go ever Just one set ot
papers of the written work ot the eight
grsdes for a single day," aaid the suggester
ef the exhibit. "The subjects and the
thoughts that are Introduced Into a single
language lesson are of a character that
furnish life lessons to the children, snd.it
Is but right that parents ahould under
stand the line of effort In the schools that
they might work with as. As tor ths
branches thai are ae commonly referred to
as fads, even among teachers et ether
trades whe fall ta on demand them, these
should be ortifMtarl especially, and parents
ahouM endeavor ta Uiuleretand them and
