Is the season in which bad or poisoned blood
is most apt to show itself. Nature, at this
juncture, needs something to assist it in
throwing off the impurities which have COL
lected by the sluggish circulation Of blood
during the cold winter months. Swift's Spe-
citic is natures great helper, as it is a purely
vegetable Alternative and tonic.
Rev. l.. b. Paine, Macon, Ca, writes: 1--WE
have been using Swift's Specific at the
orphans home as a remedy for blood COM
plants, and as a general health tonic, and
have had remarkable results from its use on
the children and employees of the institution
1t is such an excellent tonic, and keeps the
blood SO pure, that the system is less liable to
disease. 1t has cured some Of our children Of
ScrOfula."
w. II. Gilbert, druggist, Albany, Ca, writes
I'VE are selling large quantities of Swift's
Specific for a spring Alternative and general
health tonic, and with the best results. 1t is
now largely used as preventive and cure for
Malaria. There are many remarkable evil
dences of its merit in this section"

The Champion.

Hugh Coyle, the advance agent for
the John l.. Sullivan combination,
arrived in the city yesterday and
arranged with Manager Mcguire for
the appearance of the champion at
Renshaw Hall. next Wednesday
night. MI. Coyle is much incensed
at the telegraph reports which have
been sent regarding the Sullivan
party, and denounces the charges of
drunkenness and broiling which
they have conveyed,a s false in toto and
as gotten up by designing persons
through jealousy of the great success
which has attended the combination
since its departure from New York.
The Denver story of Sullivan's en-
gaging in a broil in front of the
Arcade saloon and rushing into the
American House for a revolver, is
especially stigmatized as false, and
MI. Coyle calls attention to the fact
that the American House is five
blocks distant from the Arcade
saloon, as an evidence of the improb-
ability of the story. Arrangements
are being made for the appearance Of
some local celebrities in the ring
with Sullivan or other professionals
of the combination, which Will prove
an additional attraction to draw q
crowded audience to Renshaw Hall,
next Wednesday night.

The scare which our esteemed CO.

arouse on the subject of diphtA eria is
all over. There are only two or three

have turned iout to be tonsilitis or
some similar throat affection, and it
is safe to say that diphtheria in an
epidemic form does not exist in

"AvOid it! avoid it," shrieked Van

''it's bad! very bad! My dear girl" he
said more kindly, after he had eco
cred his composure, "I'n give you
some advice gratis. You had better
