AYERS Sarsaparilla is the best medicine
for every one in the spring. Emigranfs and
travellers will find it an effectual cure for
the eruptions, boils. pimples, eczemas, etc,
that break out on the skin-the effects of
disorders in the blood, caused by sea diet
and life on board ship.

THERE is more experience, time and
brain work represented in the preparation
of Hoods Sarsaparilla than in any other
medicine. 1t is this which makes Hoods
Sarsaparilla superior.

a Hopeless Minority.

From the New York Times.
Among the Rev. Henry Ward Beecher's
many accomplishments not the least is his
ability as story teller. To much anus cd
listeners he recently told this one about a
New York drummer. A typical "knight of
the grip sack" was detained at a small town
in Western New York awhile ago where a
revival meeting was in progress. He had
met party OF conyivial friends during his
stay there, and had what Is popularity known
as "aload on" Nevertheless he drifted into
the revival meeting and took seat well up
I'm front 1t was rather close in the church
and the warm air was conducive Tor sleep
The drummer yielded to the drowsy god
and after nodding little sank into a pro-
found slumber and slept through the min
ister's rather long aud dry discourse. The
audience sang hymn and the drummer
slept on. Then the evangelist began his ad-
dress, aud wound up his iervid appeal with
"wiil all of you who want to go to heaven
please rise"
Every one In the church except the sleepy
drummer arose. When the evangelist asked
them to be seated one of the brothers in the
same pew as the sleeping drummer accident
ally brushed against him as he sat down. The
drummer rubbed his eyes, and partially
awake heard the last portion of the evange-
lists request which was:
snow | want all OF you who want to go to
hell stand up"
The drummer struggled a little, leaned
forward unsteadily, and rose from his seat
in dszed sort OF way. sort OF suppressed
laugh he heard from some of the younger
people, and an expression OF horror he
noticed on the faces of some of the older
ones Steadying himself against the rail he
looked at the evangelist an instant and then
said
"Wel, parson, don't know just exactly
what we're voting on, but you aud seem to
be in hopeless minority"

Protect the Birds.

DIR. Oliver Wendell Holmes takes a deep
interest in the movement to protect birds
from slaughter. al am myself" he says,
"more than tolerant of the somewhat in
trusive intimacy of the English sparrow. No
other birds outside of the barnyard let me
come so near them-not even the pigeons.
But still more am indebted to the guils and
ducks, who during large part OF the year
are daily visitors to the estuary OF the
Charles, on which l look from my library
windows. l wish they could be protected
by law, and if law cannot or will not do it,
that public opinion would come between
them and their murderers. Not less. Ger,
tainly, do 1 feel the shame of the wantor
destruction of our singing birds to feed the
demands of barbaric vanity"

Solidly founded than the reputation of Ben-
sons Capcine Plasters. They are, known, ap-
preciated and used everywhere in America-its
hospitals and its homes. Physicians, pharma.

of action, certainty and range of curative quail
ties they are beyond comparison. Once used
their unequalled excellence recommends them
The public are again cautioned against the
cheap, worthless and Shameless limitations
offered by mendacious parties under the guise
OF similar sounding names, such as Capicin,"
" "Capsicum." "Capucin," "Capsicine," etc.

WHAT IL INDIG ENOUs.
New Engiand's Contribution the Most Inhuen-
tial and Characteristic.

New England's Contribution the Most Inhuen- /
tiaI aud Characteristic.
From the New York World.
1t is fortunate thing that the liera ture Of
a country does not depend upon the imme-
diate current production. 1t would be a
very uncertain and vascilatiug quantity II
such were the case. Whatever Is written
and is worth keeping becomes fixed capital
and is indestructible. The amount is nsces-
sarily cumulative, and 1t is foregone con-
cluson that one of these days the people OF
this country will have national literature
of sufficient substance and symmetry to give
| II distinctive character. or course we have
a part interest in the literature Of England
and, i'm this age Of translations, not little
| share in what is thought and printed in
| other tongues, but we may look forward to
| the time when our posterlty will have a lit
| erary property unmistakable its own, and
one worth having. What IL is to be is
| largely q matter OF conjecture. At present
| We have only an irregular and intermittent
sories of comparatively few foundation
stones on which the future structure is to be
| reared.
| A literature which bears the stamp of ma
tionslity must be indigenous, and In some
sense, either detinable or undetinable, repre-
sentative. 1t must have reference TO locality.
The environment suggests something which
other environments do not, and 1t Is the one
l
whatever 1t Is, that Is the native writer In
prose or verse; Thus 1t Is not the deep
thinker who exercises the controlling infiu-
ence in giving shape and character 10 the lit
erature of people. 1t is the one who un-
consciously seizes the spirit OF the place and
time and gives voice to what Is present
| though indstinct In the minds of ordinary
men and women. These utterances strike
the popular chord at once, capture the mind
and heart, aud, however simple and homely,
become firmly imbedded In the national
literature. Here lies the strength OF Burns,
of Scott and Dickens. Such men leave a
charm ever after on their surroundings
which was not there before. Many who
walk in the higher and more difficult paths
OF thought are representative also, but they
have smaller constituencies
Judged from this standpoint what true lit
erary roots are making their way In our soil
Irving has done something towards making

The IIowelis-Jm mmes School.

From tho New York Times
There are, say, four, not more, OF our
novelists who turn out their wheaton cakes
delicately crisp. There is no use of setting
your teeth hard on them, or using muscular
force for their trituration. They crumble so
easily. Our English friends used to find
fault with such superfine food calling them
"captain's biscuits" thus implying that as far
as they were concerned they preferred the
flinty, hard bread of the sailor. Wonderful
to relate, however, our transatlantic friends
have taken kindly to this dainty fare, and
now proclaim thatthey really relish it One
might expatiate at length on this simile.
The general character of Mr.. Howells's pabu-
lum, not being fruity or luscious, is always
assimilable aud digestible. There may be
little nourishment in It, 1t makes no bone
or fat. Ii is a light stimulent of the nervous
