spRrNG FEVER.

Persons should not think lightly of that feeling of extreme debility, so common in the spring of the year. It is often the fore. runner of year of i'll health. It renders the system very susceptible to disease, and is caused by the blood being filled with poisonous humors. The blood by all means, should be kept healthy, otherwise it's power to assimilate nutritious food be- comes impaired, and dyspepsia. liver com plaint headache, nervous debility, extreme langour, weak kidneys, want of physical and mental endurance and general pros tration is the result. Since prevention is better than cure, don't wait for the final result of springti1ne indisposition, when the first symptoms of langour are mani tested, but begin using Dr. Guysotts Yel- low Dock and Sarsaparilla. As spring medicine, it excels all other remedies, gently but surely expelling the poisonous blood humors with which the system be- comes impregnated, by the incidental effect of changeable winter weather. It makes the blood red, rich and pure, causes it to circulate with more vim, enables it to re- new the wasted tissues and carries strength and vitality to every weakened part Of the human system, restoring impaired bodily functions, and checking all decay of the urinary, digestive, and pulmonary organs, which, if neglected too often ends in pre- mature grave.

The Unfortunate Position of a Bride
 groom.
San Francisco Post.

They had a terrible time at wedding up at Petaluma the other day. and which only goes to show how the smallest drawback will sometimes take the stiff ness out of the swellest occasion.
 It seems that the ceremony was a very grand affair, indeed. There were eight bridesmaids, and the church was crowd ed from pit to dome, as the dramatic critics would say. But, when they got to the proper place in the ceremony, and the groom feeling for the ring, he discovered that it wasn't on hand. After a rumor rapidly went through the con gregation to the effect that telegram had just arrived proving the groom had the minister had scowled at the miser- able wretch for awhile, the latter de- tected the magic circlet had slipped through hole in his pocket and worked into his boot. He communicated the terrible fact in whisper to the bride, who turned deadly pale, and was only kept from fainting by the reflection that they would inevitably cut the strings of her satin corsage in case she did.
 "Why don't you produce the ring?' whispered the brides big brother, hoarsely, and feeling for his pistol, under the impression that the miserable man was about to back out.
 q can't. Its in my boot" explained the groom under his breath, his very hair meanwhile turning red with morti fication.
 "Try and fish it out, somehow-hurry up" mumbled the minister behind his book.
 'I'll try" gasped the victim, who was very stout; and he put one foot on the chancel rail, pulled up his trousers leg and began making sposmodic jabs for the ring with his fore-fnger. The min- ister motioned to the organist to squeeze out few notes to fill in the time, while four other wives living in the East al ready.
 1T can't reach it," groaned the half married man, in agony. "lt won't come."
 "Sit down and take your boot of, you fool" hissed the brides mother, while the bride herself moaned piteously and wrung her hands.
 There was nothing left; so the sufferer sat down on the floor and began to wrestle with his boot, which was na- turally new and tight, while fresh rumor got under way to the effect that the groom was beastly tight,
 AS the boot came finally of, it's crush ed wearer endeavored unsuccessfully. to hide trade dollar hole in the heel of his stocking, noticing which the par son, who was humorous sort of sky contractor, said grimly:
 "You seem to be getting married just in time, my young friend"
 And the ceremony proceeded with the party of the first part standing on one leg, trying to hide his well-venti. lated foot under the tail of his coat, and appro opriately muttering, "Darn itl" at short intervals.

A Eerxent and LaeonIo Prayer.

During the session of 1858, when the Iowa Legislature was discussing the state bank bill, and a prohibitory liquor law, fervent and laconic prayer, which has become historical, was offered before that body Recently the authorship of the prayer and it's phraseology have been disputed, Mir. Frank Shinn, appar- entity settles the matter by stating that it was his father, A. T. Shinn, who prayed, and that his petition was as fol, lowe: "Great God, bless the young and growing State of Iowa; bless our Sena- tors, Representatives and chief officers; give us sound currency, pure water and unde6led religion, for Chpst's aak e, amen"

THR GRAND UNION HoTEL.-Everybod who goes to New York city by rail, and who wants the best and most handy hotel to stop at, should try the Grand Union. It is located on Park Avenue just opposite the Grand Central depot, and all one has to do is to step across the street, leave his bag gage checks on the office counter, and in ten minutes his trunks are in his room free of expense, and without trouble or an noyance. When he gets there he will find the very best of beds, the cleanest oflinen, the most courteous attention, and as good a table as can be found at any hotel in the country-and by this we mean as good as the Windsor in New York, the Continental in Philadelphia, or Young in Boston, and prices fully a third lower than either. Baggage is returned to the station free of charge, and special attention is given to ladies who may visit New York without escort. The Third Avenue elevated road has a station at one corner of the house and the horse-cars pass the door. The manager is Mir w. D Garrison, who spares no pains to make every guest feel satisfied with his accommodations. We give this commendation of the Grand Union on the strength of the personal experience of q Lowell party of seven who recently tested it, and who, having tried some of the best hotels in the country, agree that in the particulars referred to, this hotel was su- perior to any of them.-L0ioeH Duly Co,T- | isr

The Best Remedy for Chapped Hands

The Best Remedy Tor Chapped Hnnds Is Hegeman's Camphor Ice. It should be rubbed on the parts affected. If the han ds are badly chapped apply every night, and protect the hands by wearing an old pair of kid gloves. Hegemans is the best and most popular of all the Camphor Ices made Hegeman's Camphor Ice is also cure for sore lips, chapped face and sunburn. It IS compounded.with glycerine, which renders it more emolient than any other Camphor Ice, and will be found most soothing ap- plicatios to the face after shaving.
 Be sure to ask for Hegemans formerly made by Hsgeman X Co.,. New York, and now made by the Metropolitan Medical Company. of New Haven, Conn, and do not be put of with any other compound, which nay become rancid and do you more harm than good. Hegeman's Cam phor never fails.

WE'LL INDoRsED BY UR OWN
 CITIZENS.

No matter how useful any hing may be in itself, good inducements seem to increase its usefulness greatly by insur- ing wider field for the display of its special merits. We were thus impressed ill view of the following statements re- ceived by one of our representatives from leading individuals connected with some of the largest enterprises in our midst. Among others whose testimony was freely given was w. H. Stearns, Esq, Master Mechanic of the Conn. River Railroad, residing at No. 28 Boylston street, who observed:-St Jacobs Oil has had remarkable effect among the men employed here. One of them damned his arm very badly, and by the use of St. Jacobs Oil was greatly benefited, and the arm was healed. Another used it for severe rheumatic pains in the knee, and pronounced the Oil complete success as he was cured by its use. Mir. A. B. Taylor, of the Ray X Taylor Manufacturing Co.," was pleased to say: My aunt, Mrs. Pillsbury, of Mount Clair, N. J., while visiting at our house tried St. Jacobs Oil for rheumatism and neuralgia, and found immediate relief every time. She pro. nounced it the best thing she had ever tried for the trouble. Mir. J. B. Weston, 45 Greenwood street, Supt. Car Works, Boston & Albany Railroad, thus address ed our reporter: q am one more of the fortunates who have had the good luck to hear of that wonderful remedy, St. Jacobs Oil I had rheumatism in the shoulder severely and could find no re- lief until used the Oil. I applied it and must confess I was surprised at the results. am almost well and expect to be entirely so in a few days."-Spring- field (Mass) Uaion.

FooD is an agent of tremendous power. Feed mankind with the same science that their natural food-and then we may look for the healthy results obtained with these animals Dairymen no how to feed for health and milk. Hostlers know how to feed their horses, and ladies their canaries They all seek to give the nominal, natural food of the animal under their care. Now if man would treat his own race as he treats his animals, we think human nervous sys- tems would not show such signs of weak ness.-Dr. Foote's Health Monthly.
