It matters not how ob stinate the case, nor what other treat ment or remedies have failed. 8. S. 8. always promptly reaches and cures an? Pnrae fhfl Unrct Pococ disease where the blood ii in arty way involved. UUlOg IIIC VIUIJI UaoOOi Everyone who has had experience with blood diseases knows that there are no ail ments or troubles so obstinate and difficult to cure. Very few remedies claim to cure such real, deep-seated blood diseases as 8. S. 8. cures, and none can offer such incontrovertible evidence of merit. S 8.8. Is not merely a tonic it ii a eure ! It goes down to the very seat of all blood diseases, and gets at the foundation of the Tory worst cases, and routs the noison from the system. It does not, like other remedies, dry up tho poison and liide it from view temporarily, only to break forth attain more violently than ever; 8. 8. 8. forces out every trace of taint, and ridn the system of it forever. Mr.T V. Lee, Montgomery, Ala., writes: "Someyears a 1 was inoculated with poison by a nurse who infected my babe with blood taint. I was covered with sores and ulcers from head to foot, and in my Rreatextremity I prayed to die. Several prominent physicians treated me, but all to no purpose The mercury 'and potash which they jave me seemed to add fuel to the awful flame which was devouring me. I was advised by friends who had seen wonderful cures made by it, to try Swift's Bpecifio. I im proved from the B art, as the medicine seemed to n direct to the cause of the trouble and forco the poison out. Twenty buttles cured me completely." Swift's bpccitic S. S. S.

Drigham II. Roberta, the Mormon cirigresfman. who may be expelled from the house of representatives be cause he practices polygamy, is a great church leader, a missionary, a presl r ehlprs and the leading cxpounH- er of theology as taught by the Book Cyrano many of his photos are asked of Mormon. Mr. ltoberta is not a poll- for. ticlan. Be stands for all that is ortho- Madpe Islnfr nnd Edna Wallace dox in Utah. Ills first political work Hopper find their photos In demand, was dsne seven years ago, when, with Delia Fox'e photos, however, are at many others of his kind, he was drawn present a drug on the market, into the whirl of a fight in the church Many people buy pictur,' simply be- itself. In 1695 be was the democratlo cansie thev are pretty SOU tor that ren- candidate for congress, and In that campaign he stood out against several of the powerful priests of the church. At a later time, however, he repented and was once more token back to tho lxsom of the church. The new Utah congressman, being a Mormon of the Mormons, is a firm believer In polyg amy, and hns written many high sounding words In praise of that pecul iar system. He Is a dignilled man and sees only the serious side of life, as a polygaraist well may. Congressman Roberta does not deny that he U the husband of three women, but it is not at all likely that any on -of the number will accompany him t Washington. In fact it is extremely doubtful whether Mr. Roberts will bo allowed to take his seat in congress, as Warren Foster, the populist candidate for congress, has already announced his intention of a contest, on the ground that Robert's polygamous rela tion? render Wro ineligible. Were It not for bis domestic compli cations Roberts would easily be the most prornineni young man in L'tah.

If yuir horse dot's not masticate his onts, put a handful of dent corn in and mix it through. He will not swallow the corn whole nnd will then chow it all.

Do not neglect the hour or two in the paddock for every horse that is not used regularly. 1'ull tilie shoes off the unused horses and groom them every dtiy.

Mr. Roberta enjoys u high reputation as a newspaper writer. lie hns been ditor-ln-cliief of the Salt I.ake Herald, the democratic organ of Utah, nnd was editor-in-chief for two yenrs of the .Millennial Star, the leading Mormon publication of Europe. The polygamous relations, however, have caused a atorm of indignation since bis nomination for congress by the democrat in September last Only onco during the campaign did Mr. Roberta refer to bis domestic rela tions, nnd tbnt wns after Oov. Wells had charged in a public epoech that a vAe for Roberta w-ns a vote against U tah, and that Mb election would place the Mormon people in the attitude of having been recreant to their promises respecting polygamy. Ilobert then, in on interview, de clnrcd in effect that the living with more tbnn one woman was merely an unlawful relationship nnd not po lygamy. The most recent ncrpilsltion to Mr. Roberts' household is a prominent woman physician of Salt Lake City, but it is not claimed tbat he married her since the manifesto of Tresident Wood' ruff, of the Mormon church, suspending polygamy in lS'ji). It is less than two years, however. since Xo. .'! appeared at n meeting of a j woman's literary club, of which she was a member, and said: "Please don't call rcc Dr. any more.
