CHRONIC ULCERS
INDICATE BAD BLOOD
Where tlie blood is pure any wound
or laceration of tlie fle.sh heals "by
first intuition.'’ This is true because
nature has provided a constituent to
the circulation known as Plasma,
which joins ami holds the place to
pethcr until the fibres and tissues can
permanently kuit and interweave.
Whenever the ulcer becomes chronic
it is because this healing quality ol
the blood has been impaired by some
impurity in the circulation, and the
place remains open, infecting .ill sur-
rounding flesh, until the character ol
the circulation is changed. No sore
can heal where the blood is bad ; be-
cause the morbid impurities on which
it thrives are constantly deposited
into it by the burdened circulation.
Cleanse the blood and the sore will
heal of its own accord, because then
its very source and foundation will
have been destroyed. S. S. S. cure:
Chronic Ulcers of every kind for the
one gieat reason that it thoroughly
purifies the blood. It goes into the
circulation and removes every particle
of infectious 01
morbid matter,
enriches the cor-
puscles, and as-
sists nature in
the formation of
the necessary
pi as in ic qualities
of this vital fluid.
No matter from
what source the impurities .of the
blood came, S. S. S. will remove them.

A NEW BEEF BBEED.
Buffalo-Cattle Cross Makes Heavy
Percentage of Dressed Beef.
Col. Charles Goodnight of the
Goodnight ranch, in Armstrong coun-
ty, has made a successful demonstra-
tion cf his cross-bred Iniffalo-catfle
as beef makers. He shipped three
animals to the Fort Worth packing
houses, to he slaughtered and testeii
for beef percentage. Technically, this
Is known as the "dressing-out" test;
to ascertain how much dressed meat
there is in an animal of given
weight. The average Texas cow will
yield about 50 per cent of her
weight in beef. - One of Col. Good-
night's three-quarter buffalo cows
dressed out 04.OK per cent, a half-
bred dressed tirt 55 per cent and a
rne-sixteenth yearling hull 'dressed
57 :14 per cent. These figures show
that tlie greater the percentage of
buffalo blood thp larger the per cent
of beef. All of them were strictly
grass fed and were in rather thin
condition.
Butchers pay for beef animals in
proportion to the amount of beef
they can get out of them. It appears
that these buffalo-cattle or "catta-
loes," as Col Gcrdnlght has named
them, are good things for rattle
rats -rs to take up, as they will un-
doubtedly sell at bettor prices than
tne common cattle, because they will
make inore beef.
Col. Goodnight is making arrange-
ments to have a number of these
gattaloes on exhibition at the Na-
tional Feeders and Breeders' Show,
to he held at Fort Worth March 1 3th
to 1 sth, next. They will tie one of tlie
greatest attractions of that show. The
half-breeds have the heavy forequar-
ters and hump of the buffalo, with
heavy coats of hair but not so shaggy
and woolly as the buffalo’s coat. AR
their original buffalo progenitors
were crossed on Polled-Angus cows,
these cattaloes are hornless.
One of the cows was 21 years old
and the other 18, but in spite ot
their age; they were as lively and
skittish as heifers.

Signal Corps Declines
to Profit by His Far-
reaching Discovery
III Pi
Four Can Talk on Same
Wire atOnce—Will Save
i
Millions of Dollars An-
nually to the Public.
Jk NEW invention of the tele
/% phone which will revolution
ise the history of that lustra-
ment throughout the world
has been made.
The United States signal iorps has
discovered that multiplex telephony Is
practicable, or, In other words, that
several independent conversations m y
lx* * carried on simultaneously on a sin-
gle wire circuit.
A notable feature of the Invention
Is that It has been made and patented
for the benetR of the' people at large.
The invention oapuot be appropriated
by any one corporation or individual
or trust. It is the invention of Major
George O. Sqtiier, assistant chief sig
nal officer, and belongs to tlie people
of the United States.
One of the special features of tin-
invention js that to constitute a <-ii
cult one wire is sufficient. This is a
; but the iruimrtant discovery Is the con
; troi of tlie wireless by a wire base.
Major Sqtiier in speaking'of the rev-
1 ohnioiiury discovery says:
1 “1 think we have succeeded in doing
I something for commercial America.
Consider for a minute that the'report
•of John J. Citrty, chief engineer of the
j American Telephone and Telegraph
company, states that tills telephone
ami telegraph company has 12,00(>.<KKt
miles of wire in operation. Consider
also that this report, made a month
ago. states that in the llrst six months

MAJOR GEORGE O. SQUIER, U. S. A., INVENTOR OF THE MULTI-
PLEX TELEPHONE, WIIO HAS DONATED IDS DISCOVERY, THAT
WILL SAVE MILLIONS, TO PUBLIC USE.
repetition of the wonderful discovery
in telegraphy some years ago. when it
was demonstrated that the earth itseif
could be substituted for one of the two
wires which were thought necessary
to establish a circuit.
All the necessary Instruments re-
quired in the new scheme of telephon-
ing are already developed and cun be
purchased front dealers In the open
market. It is further announced that
in order to get the benefit of additional
conversations upon a single wire cir
cult It is not necessary to “interfert
in the slightest degree with the opera
tions of tlie present telephone installs
tions, which remain unchanged.”
Positive proof of the practicaility of
the invention is offered in the fact
that there is now in operation a sys
tem gb'lng two independent telephone
conversations over n single wire whlef:
runs from the lnlxtratory of the signal
corps of fhe bureau of standards and
signal corps construction laboratory
on Pennsylvania avenue. Washington
a distance of about three miles.
The gift of the invention to the peo
pie of the United States is contained
in the following from the official an
nouneement:
• “The unrestricted use of this method
Is free to all people of the Unite*
States, and there is no royalty or oth
er expense attached to the use of this
system,"
The invention is covered by fou:
patents.
TliN discovery was predicted tiitr
ty-tive years ago by Thomas A. Edi-
son, when the prediction w as regarded
more as a dream than a possibility
It la stated by those familiar with tlie
working of tlie new scheme that at
leust four jteople can talk on the same
single telephone wire at once without
mutual interference.
Statisticians who have given atten-
tion to the possibilities,of the new-sys-
tem say that the American Telephone
and Telegraph company could save
$4’-’,000,000 a year if it made use of
the war department's discovery.
The secret of the invention is the
application of wireless communication,
the wireless messages being controlled"
as to direction by n single metallic
wire. This is a seeming paradox, as a
wire is used in the transmission of
wireless messages In a con tim'd snace
graplt wires for forty or fifty years.
We take into account tlie question of
storms which may break down wire.
“We do not expect in the war de
pitcltm-nt that the full significance ql
tlie grunting of these patents will Ik-
realized for some time. 1 am frank t-
sny that we went about it rather se
cretly and that we were hoping ull
tlie time that we might achieve the
desired result with little publicity. So
it transpired.
“I will say that I do not want one
penny from any one for the discovery.
There will he no royalties attached to
the use of tlie plans and specifications,
and the American Telephone and Tele
graph company, the war department,
you and I are us welcome as can he to
take copies of these specifications and
build multiplex telephones. 1 have nr
ranged it so that these patents are in
the name of the government aud the
people of the United States.”
The statement is made at the war
department that very nearly $15JXX)
was used of the appropriation made
by congress for the exi>eriinents just
successfully completed by the war de-
partment for perfecting the multiplex
telephone.
Major Sqtiier is forty-five years old
unmarried and was born In Dryden.
Mich. He entered West Point in 18S3
and was graduated In 1887.

Do You Open Your Mouth
Like a young bird and gulp down whatever food or medicine may
be offered you ? Or, do you want to know something of the com-
position and character of that which you take into -your stomach
whether as food or medicine?
Most intelligent and sensible people now-a-days insist on
knowing what they employ whether as food or as medicine.
Dr. Pierce believes they have a perfect right to INSIST
upon sdeh knowledge. So he publishes, broadcast and
on each bottle-wrapper, what Ms medicines are made
of and verifies It under oath. This he feels he can well
afford to do because the more the Ingredients of which
his medicines are made are studied and understood the
*>
, more will their superior curative virtues be appreciated.
For the cure of woman’s peculiar weaknesses and derangements, giving rise to frequent
headache, backache, dragging-down pain or distress and kindred symptoms of weakness,
Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is a most efficient remedy. It is equally effective in
giving strength to nursing mothers and in preparing the system of the expectant mother
for baby’s coming, thus rendering childbirth safe and comparatively painless. The “Fa-
vorite Prescription” is a most potent, strengthening tonic to the general system and to
the organs distinctly feminine in particular. It is also a soothing and invigorating nerv-
ine and cures nervous exhaustion, nervous prostation, neuralgia, hysteria, spasms, chorea
or St. Vitus’s dance, and other distressing nervous symptoms attendant upon functional
and organic diseases of the distinctly feminine organs.
A host of medical authorities of all the several schools of practice, recommend each
of the several ingredients of which “Favorite Prescription” is made for the cure of the
diseases for which it is claimed to be a cure. You may read w hat they say for yvttrse/f by
sending a postal card request for a free booklet of extracts from the leading authorities,
to Dr. R. V. Pierce, Invalids’ Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y., and.it vx ill
come to you by return post.
It’s foolish and often dangerous t© experiment with new or but slightly tested med-
icines—sometimes urged upon the afflicted as “just as good” or better than “Favorite
Prescription.” The dishonest dealer sometimes insists that he knows what the proffered
substitute is made of, hut you don’t and it is decidedly for your interest that _v««should
know what you are taking into your storrtach antf system expecting it to act as a curative.
To him its only a difference cf profit. Therefore, insist on having Dr. Pierce’s Fa-
vorite Prescription.
Send 31 one-cent stamps to pay cost of mailing only on a free copy of Dr. Pierce’s
