Tells How Cuticura
Healed Eczema
"I was troubled with eczema all over
my body, especially my face, hands,
and neck for about five months. At
night it itched and burned ao constantly
tthat when I scratched it
made me nearly crazy, and
it made my skin so sore
and red that it caused many
small pimples. These
formed into blisters, and
I could not get any sleep.
"I found a Cuticura Soap and Oint
ment advertisement, so I sent for a
free sample. In less than a week I
could see a difference so I purchased
more, and after using two cakes of
Cuticura Soap and not quite one box
of Ointment I was healed." (Signed)
Miss Margaret Cooper, 59 Keller's

ROLLING OF HIS. WHITE EYES
CAUSES COLORED BOY'S ARREST
Youthful Hand of Alleged Thieves Nabbed by Police After
Many Depredations in Borough
A youthful disciple of Jesse James
WHS found in a coal pile in the home
of a Steelton businessman by Pa
trolman Beymen by the rolling of his
shining eyes. Clarence Jackson is a
colored) boy thirteen years old and
had covered himself with coal when
he discovered he was cornered. When
found the lad's body was covered
with the exception of his head,
which could not be distinguished
from the coal.
Young Jackson's arrest was the
first of seven which proved the down
fall of a band of boy outlaws which
had been entering and robbing busi
ness houses and 'private residences of
Steelton for almost a month. The
other boys arrested are: Charles
Chaney, aged nine; Fred Fisher,
twelve: John Bradus, thirteen: New
man Fisher, fourteen, and Richard
Pope, fourteen, all colored, and Gil
bert Souillard, aged thirteen, white.
The band, with the exception of
young Pope and Souillard, who are
out on bail, are at the House of De
tention pending a hearing before
Justice of the Pqftce Stees.
Beginning of the End

boys operating in this vicinity and
watched them enter the cellar. After
Jackson had entered the cellar
Chaney skipped and the boy "bur
glar" was left to battle against the
law himself. Officer Reyman went
to the cellar of the residence and
after a long search found Jackson
crouched in the coal bin.
The boys are known to the police,
having been in police court on three
different occasions. Several weeks

RHEUMATISM
CAN NOT BE CURED
BY RUBBING WITH LINI
MENTS AND OINT
MENTS.
If you are one of the many
thousand victims of torturing
Rheumatism, make up your
mind to-day that you will aban
don your efforts to rub the dis
ease away with liniments, lo
tions, ointments, and local ap
plications. Such treatment by
itself is not only futile and de
void of results, but is a waste
of time, during which the dis
ease is getting a firmer hold on
your system.
Rheumatism is a stubborn
disease. It is npt on the sur
face, therefore you must not
expect to be able to cure it with
remedies applied to the surface.
No one ever yet effected a per
manent cure in this way, so why
should you continue to suffer
while relying upon treatment
that has failed in thousands of
cases?
The experience of others af
flicted with Rheumatism is your
best guide, and by following
theire advice you can not only
save yourself untold suffering,
but rid-yourself of a disease that
will eventually wreck your body
and leave you helpless. Almost
every victim of Rheumatism has
practically the same experience.
They are so impressed with the
pains and suffering of the dis
ease, and are so anxious to get
rid of them that they have treat
ed the pains alone, and overlook
ed their cause. They have rubb
ed with liniments, lotions and
ointments in an effort to get tem
porary relief, with no chance of
doing themselves any permanent
good.
Such was the experience of
Mr. Caspus Bibb, of 2424 Tenth
Avenue, Bessemer, Ala., who
writes to tell how he found re
lief from this terrible affliction.

"A few years ago I suffered
from a severe attack of articular
Rheumatism that rendered me al
most helpless. By the use of tjie
usual external remedies I was
able to check the pain some-wliat.
but did not regain the full use of
my limbs, and on cloudy days or
when exposed to dampness or
cold I would immediately suffer
from stiff and aching Joints. I
began to take S. K. S., and nil
symptoms at once began to dis
appear. until now I have no fear
of exposure to the worst sort of
weather. I fee! it my duty to rec
ommend S. S. S. to all who wish to
free themselves from the tortur
ing clutches of Rheumatism."
Any physician will tell you
that Rheumatism is a deep
seated blood disease. The pain
is not the disease itself, but
merely a symptom nature's
warning to you that you have
been attacked. The only intel
ligent treatment, therefore, is
through the blood; treatment
directed toward eliminating the
disease germ from the blood.
For years nearly all the pro
scriptions used by the medical
professions were those contain
ing iodide of potash or mercur
ial substances, but in nearly
every case these minerals are
more injurious to the system
than the disease itself.
One reason why S. S. S. is so
succesful in the treatment of
Rheumatism and other blood dis
orders is the fact that it is a
purely vegetable remedy, being
made from roots and herbs gath
ered direct from the forests. It
contains not a particle of miner
al substance, and acts by driving
all disease germs from the blood
and cleansing it of all impurities.
S. S. S. has been on the market
for fifty years, and every drug
gist has sold it ever since he has
been in business. It is sold
under an absolute guarantee
that it is purely vegetable.
Our medical department is
maintained for the benefit of thsc
afflicted, and if you will write
fully about your case you will be
given complete advice as to the
treatment necessary for your in
dividual case, for which no
charge is made. Address Swift
