The easiest, though probably not
the best way, we oftentimes, mi
our youth found to be, to watch
our nrighbors plant and cultivate

steal over tho fence some dark
night, and stumble around in the
melon patch, until we found some
that would stand raising then
with one melon on our head and
lone under each arm, we would
catry our crop home.

melons would meet us on the road
going home, but as wo noticed

The Detroit Museum of Art, which
is the outgrowth of the splendid ex-
hibition given 1883. holds its first an.
nual exhibition Of pictures at Merrill
hall, Detroit, beginning May 80 and
continuing two weeks. For first ex-
hibition this promises to be one of
rare attraction. Among the prom
inent exhibits will be Rembrandt
Peale's great picture The Court of
Death, painted some 90 years ago, in
its day exhibited in most of the lead
ing cities OF the country. 1t alone
will be worth visit to the exhibition.
But this is only one of many rare at.
fractions. There will be number of
pictures there worth from $4,000 to
$4,000 each Excursion rates will be
given on the railroads, and as admis-
sion is only IS cents, many in this
vicinity will undoubtedly attend.

SPRING DANGERS.

The dangers of this season are simply
appalling The system has been braced
up to meet the severity Of Winter and
the warm weather coming on opens the
pores and renders diseases both possible
and probable. The great source OF oil
Spring disorders Is to be found in the
blood which Is almost always out Of order
in the SPRING Men, women and children
must take something; DO something.
Blood-po.oning Is so common aud Is be-
coming so dangerous It is necessary to
exercise much more caution than ever be-
fore. The breaking out which Is so fire.
quent Is In every case the result OF Impure
blood, and usually result OF rheuma-
tism. But suppose this impurity does not
break out, What becomes of itY Often
it attacks some vital organ. usually the
heart, and sudden death or lingering
suffering are the results. These are ALSO
Lutte facts and serious ones too.
For the treatment and cure Ct rhcuma-
tism In all It's forms, Ms well az all blood
disorders, and the functional derange-
ments that cause them, Hibbards Rheu-
matte Syrup IL strongly recommended
alike by the medical faculty aud by promi-
nent citizens, where 1t has once been in
troduced. Acting Immediately on the
blood and the organs through which It Is
purified, 1t dissolves and removes the
uric, lithic and Tactic acids which are its
immediate cause, and by expelling them
mt the same time thoroughly purilies the
system, cures skin diseases and urinary
and liver complaints. Being purely
vegetable preparation, 1t exercises no in
furious effects OH the digestive organs,
but aids them In the performance of their
duties and braces the nervous system.
Men have suffered. died and been
mourned by their friends who did not
know the real, cause OF their death.
Women have passed away and their fami-
lies could not understand why. Little
children have broken out with fearful
sores and have sickened and died, and the
parents did not save them. These things
are all wrong. With proper knowledge,
and the use Of the right remedy, they
should never occur, and let us hope they
will not In the future.
