In this artitle we. want to explain to you the cause of skin diseases, and also offer suggestions, founded: on reason arid experience, which | will enable you cure yourself if you are afflicted with any of the various forms of this trouble. The skin receives its necessary nourishment from the blood. Every pore is kept open and every gland kept healthy by continually feeding on the nutritious properties which are distributed throughout the system by a pure, rich blood supply. As long.as this normal condition exists the cuticle will be soft, smooth, and free from eruptions; when however the circulation is contaminated with humors and impurities its supply of nutritive properties is diminished, and it becomes a sharp, acrid fluid which diseases instead of preserves the natural health and texture of the skin. Lying just beneath the outer covering or tissue-skin” is ‘a.sen- sitive membranous flesh which surrounds and protects the tiny veins, pores and glands. It is here the impurities of the blood are deposited, and the acrid matter causes irritation and inflammation which splits or breaks the thin, tissue-lite cuticle, and the result is outwardly manifested in Ecze- ma, Tetter, Salt Rheum, or some other disfiguring or annoying eruptive disease. It can readily be seen that since Skin Diseases are the result of bad blood, there can be but one way to cure them—purify the blood. Salves, washes, lotions, etc., are not able to do so, because they do not reach the blood. Such tréatment is of no value except for its ability to temporarily relieve itching and "assist in keeping the skin clean. S.S. 5. cures Skin Diseases of every kind by neutralizing the acids and removing all humors from the -blood. ' S!S.S. cools the acid-heated circulation, builds it “E to its normal strength and thickness, multiplies its rich, nu- tritious corpuscles, and adds to its purity in every way. Then the skin, instead of being irritated and inflamed by sour impurities, is nourished, soothed and softened by this cooling, healthy stream of blood. S.S.S. is the greatest of all blood purifiers, and therein lies its ability to cure skin diseases. The trouble cannot remain when the cause has been removed, and S. S, S. will certainly remove the cause. It cures, Eczema, Acne, Tetter, Salt Rheum, pimples, boils,, blackheads, etc. and all eruptions of the skin. Book on Skin Diseases an d any medica advice free.

From the Old Straight Ball to the 18.2 Balk Line Game and Ave- rages Keep Pace with the Harder Style. NEW YORK, May 15—From a grand average of 1108 at the old three ball straight rail game to a grand average of 20 at the 18:3 balk line game is a far cry in billlards. That, however, is what the amateurs have done since they have been playing tournaments for the championship. It represents a period of twenty-one years. Many amateurs with the cue have come and gone in that time, and of those in the recent championship tournament at the German Liederkranz in this city not one was in the public arena twenty or even twelve years ago. The professionals make a much better showing in the length of thelr public life. But billiards is their business. The veterans of the last tournament were Conklin of Chicago and Dr. Mial of this city. Conklin has been playing steadily since 180. Dr. Mial played In a tourna- ment that year with Conklin, but he has not kept it up year after year since like Conklin. Ferdinand Poggenburg, who did not play in the last tournament, is a vet- eran campaigner of the cloth and ivories, and his tirst appearance.in a tournament antedates that of either Conklin or Mial. Other leading amateurs, Bdward Gardner, Wilson Foss, Martin Mullon, Arthur Town- send and Byron Stark among them still play the game, but none except Gardner has been seen in public in some years. Working At It Now. Albert Cutler of Boston, whp used to play in the amateur tourneys, has become a professional, as has Frank Keeney, who, however, doesn't play professionally, but has a billiard room. Al Taylor has turned professional too; likewise Calvin Demarest, the young Chicagoan, who as an amateur was the most skilful cuelst ever in the amateur field. His records show that. He, however, hast’t made any more improve- ment as a player than Cutler, who, though not one of the best amateurs, has improved to such an extent that he is one of the leading professionals, and the best profes- stonal billiards is considerably ahead of the best amateur playing. Step by step the ‘advance made in the science of gathering caroms by the ama- teurs can be followed. As the game has been made more difficult, so they have risen to its requirements. The first ama- teur championship of America was played tn New York in May, 1857, and was at the three ball stralght rail game. The winner was Orville Oddle, jr., whose best run was 18, best single average, 157 and grand average, 1.03. The other players were Alexander Morten, Dr. H. D. Jen- ningd, who Is still an active player; J. E. Soule, C. T. Jones and L. B. Flannagan The games were of 3% points. In a tour- nament the next year under the same co ditions Oddie won again, beating C. Bain- bridge, Dr. Jennings and Morten grand average that time was only | First at Balk Line. | The “first known 142 tournament for 4amateurs” took place in Sloeson’s room in | New York in 1883. Byron Stark was first, |Dr. A. B. Miller second and Dr. A..L Ranney third. There had, however, been a match at 14.2 previous to that in which Oddie won with an average of .40 for 40 points. The field had broadened osut by 188, in which year Maurice Daly promoted a handicap 142 tournament. There were | seven competitors—Townsend, Stark, who won; E. Gardner, Keeney, Miller, Ranncy and Poggenburg. Townsend made the best single average, 8.80; the best grand average .57, and the best 57. Those averages wouldn't amount to much in the latter day tournaments. Before the National Association of Ama- teur Billlard Players assumed complete control of tournaments the Amateur letic union had a say, and in 158 the first Amateur Athletic union cl at 1.2 was held | though slight improvement in the quality | of the play. Byron Stark, who won, & grand average of 7.74 and a best sing average of 10.34 him for the prize weve Al Taylor, J. De- Mun, Smith, Poggenburg, Miller, Hevner and Hendrick. The best run was 71, put together by Taylor In the Amateur Athletic union class ranks were Martin Mullen, Wilson Fo: and Wayman McCreery. They were rated In a class by themselves. In 158 they played the first class A tournament, fin- ishing as named. Averages were not in ac- cord with the finish. McCreery, who fin- ished third, made the best run, 189; the begt single average, 1333, and the best grand average, .18 Foss' figures were, 138, 1225, 8.27.
