Purifying the Blood.

Many respectable families take it for
granted that some kind of spring medi-
cine is necessary to set the human sys-
tenn in working order as winters cold
gives way before the approach of warm
weather whereas it is only necessary
for them to cease to do evil and learn
to do well'' in their daily eating, drink
ing, breathing, working and playing.
Persons who have learned and pay
heed to the laws of health find no neces-
sity for spring medicines. They are all
of the time purifying the blood by their
simple daily habits. They aim to make
their blood of good nourishing mate
rails, and to "cleauee" it by pure air
breathed into tho lungs.
It seems to me more and more aston
ishing that the human body can stand
SO much abuse, especially in the way of
bad air. People shut themselves into
such close rooms in writer, especially
at night, that it is no wonder that they
are driven to all sorts of stimulants to
whip up their tagging energies, and no
wonder that they are "all run down
at the end of winter. One of the most
common mistakes is the supposition
that air is pure in proportion to its
GOODNESS, SO that you have only to open
a door into an unheated room, which is
itself reservoir of foul air, perhaps,
in order to ventilate sufficiently the
living room or sleeping room. But the
mistakes in diet alone are enough to
account for the biliousness that prevails
in early spring. A winter diet made
largely of fat pork or of hot pancakes
saturated with butter or fat will pretty
surely bring some sort of sickness in
its wake.

NONE of the present styles of dress
require large amount of material,
unless an inordinate amount is used in
trimming the skirt, so that any style
can be applied to moderate patterns,
judiciously arranged, and rendered as
effective as if the amount of material
used was much greater.

The art of voicing reeds, the most
difficult and important in the manu-
facture of cabinet or parlor organs,
was invented by Mr.. Emmons Ham
lin, of the Mason & Hamlin Organ
Co., in 1849. It has been universally
adopted by American and largely by
European makers, but none have at
tanned that high standard of excel
lence in it which is reached in the
Mason & Hamlin Cabinet Organs.
This fact is universally recognized by

ALL THE SHERIFF's SALES CPSET.-We are
informed that all the sheriff sales for this
county, made since the last court have
been upset by the present court. The
ground for the upsetting. as stated to Us. is
as follows:
In New Castle county it is the custom.
when the sheriff makes Il distraint upon a
property. with a view to sale thereof. to
notify all the parties who may have liens
entered against said property. In this
county, however. the custom has been to
make the sale upon the claim of the party
pushing, without any notification whatever
to the other parties who may have claims
entered upon the docket. The court
directs that hereafter all parties who have
claims-claims duly entered-shall be duly
notified by the sheriff of any and all steps
he makes or proposes to take looking to
the distraint and sale of any real estate.
Such is the case. a. stated to lis 10y an
