finished and Spain whipped into sub

ar-HUYKILL DIVIHION
Hnvtl'M llvldeiieo or KrloiidHhlp,
Washington. May 18. The Haytlan
government has given conspicuous
evidence of its friendly feeling toward
the United Stntes by settling the long
pending claim of Hernard Campbell, ol
llrooklyn, which this government has
urged agnliiht Ilaytl. The settlement
was made on the basis of a payment of
10,000. In closing the case tho Haytlan
government made It known that Its
action was Inspired by a desire to con
tinue the friendship between tho two
governments, and was not Intended as
a recognition of the justice of the
Campbell claim. This claim originated
through the enlistment of Campbell for
service as engineer In the Haytlan
navy. He went to Hnytl, where he said
he had suffered many Indignities and
claimed reparation therefor.
"It was merely a mole at first, and for a long time was so insignificant that I gave it
nn thniirrht whatever."
These words ot a recent correspondent contain an accurate description of the first
cvmntoms of the most violent and destructive cancers as they appear in nine cases out
of ten. A slip;ht scab, a small sore, a lump in the breast a mere spot, harmless as they Vds ?o i.. ,:
appear for a time, have developed into cancers ot tlie most dangerous anu oobiinaie lurm.
Cancer is becoming so prevalent that such symptoms as the above, which refuse to
heal and disappear under ordinary treatment, may well De regarded witn suspicion.
Bciue a blood disease, it is folly to expect Cancer to be cured by a surgical opera
tion. The knife never did and never will cure a blood disease, and every time it is re
sorted to. a life is threatened with sacrifice.
The only known cure for this dreadful disease is S. S. S. (Swift's Specific), as is
shown by the indisputable testimony of the many whom it has cured.
Mr. William Walpolc, of Walshtown,
South Dakota, writes: "About three years

cancer of tlie worst typo, and notwith

The doctors soon pronounced her incurable.

and although several years have elapsed

ago, there came under my left eye a little
blotch about the size of a small pea. It
grew rapidly, and shooting pains ran in
every direction. I became alarmed and
consulted a good doctor, who pronounced
it cancer, and said that it must be cut out.
Tills I would not consent to, having little
faith in tlie indiscriminate use of the knife.
Reading of the many cures made by S. S.
S., I determined to give that medicine a
trial, and after I had taken it a few days,
tlie cancer became irritated and began to
discharge. Tills after awhile ceased, leav
ing a small bcab, which finally dropped
oil, and only a healthy little scar remains
to mark the place where the destroyer had
held full sway.

For this dreadful disease is a real blood remedy one purely vege
table, containing no potash, mercury, or other destructive mineral.
S. S. S. is the only blood remedy which reaches obstinate, deep
seated blood diseases, and hence it is the only cure for Cancer.
The disease can only be reached through the blood, and all local
treatment, such as caustic plasters pr a surgical operation, only
adds to its tortures. Being often hereditary, Cancer, in some cases
does not appear until middle life, and it is of greatest importance
that its first symptoms be carefully watched and S. S. S. promptly
taken. S. S. S. is purely vegetable, and is the only blood remedy
nuaranteed to contain no mineral or other drug; it is not a drug-
shop preparation, but is made from the roots and herbs of the forests. Wc will mail our
book on Cancer and Blood diseases to any address. Swift Specific Company,
