no! How Ga Ga" CURED

By taking Hoods Sarsaparilla, which, by
the remarkable cures it has accomplished,
often when other medicines have failed, has
proven itself to be potent and peculiar
medicine for this disease. Some Of these
cures are really wonderful, nyou sufferf from
scrofula, be sure to try Hoods Sarsaparilla.
~'"Eyery spring my wife and children have
been troubled with scrofula, sores breaking
out on them in various places. My little boy,
three years old, has been a terrible sufferer.
Last spring he was one mass ofsores fromhead
to feet. Twas advised to use Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla, and we have all taken 1t. The result
is that all have been cured of the scrofula,
my little boy being entirely free from sores,
and all four OF my children look bright and
healthy" W. B. ATuERToN, Passaic City, NJ.

Tennessee Crop Bulletin.

The state board of health, cooper
ating with the chief signal officer, fur
nishes the following bulletin for the
week ending September l, 1888: The
rains throughout the middle and
western divisions have been very
beneficial to late corn, millet, sweet
and Irish potatoes and pastures. In
East Tennessee crops are beginning
to need rain up to the 30th. In the
other divisions early corn blown
down by the storm of the Goth and
Dist is injured by the rains, and it is
now estimated that it will be dam
aged 15:to Copper cent. Verylittle fod-
der is being saved. Cotton is being
damaged to some extent by the rains,
and complaints are made that it is
running too much to weed, the crop
is generally reported doing we'll. The
rains have retarded the progress of
fall blowing in many places. In the
middle division the rains have been
unfavorable for fruit and vegetables.
Live stock is reported in fair condi-
ton. The outlook is, generally speak
ing, favorable.

1t is that impurity in the blood, which, ac,
cumulating in the glands OF the neck, pro-
duces unsightly Jumps or swellings; which
causes painful running sores on the arms,
legs, or feet; which deyelopes ulcers in the
eyes, ears, or nose, often causing blindness or
deafness; which is the origin Of pimples, can
cerous growths, or the many other manifesto
tions usually ascribed to humors;" which,
fastening upon the lungs, causes consumption
and death. Being the most ancient, 1t is the
most general of all diseases or affections, for
very few persons are entirely free from it.

Let US seal our love with a kiss"

"Dost think 1 let you revel
Where others before you have vainly tried?
Nay, nay; I'll not kiss the devil
Years passed away, and the sweet little lass
Became an old, sOrrowful maid.
Riches she had; but then, alas.
Her beauty had all decayed.
Once again they met, and iain the old maid
Would recall the former issue;
But the devil replied, as the old maid he eyed

Ole Asker: Good morning; how is
the Little Norwegian?
X. J. H.: Confined to the bed with
bad knee, and how's Ole and politics
in Douglas county?
Ole: All right. How's politics in
Stevens county?
K. j.: 1t was all o. K. with good
prospect for n Democratic victory, UNI
til the Democratic legislative conven-
ton at Morris, sold out the Democrats
and nominated cast off Republican,
r. J. Hall This sell will never go
down with true Democrats.
Ole: What's the matter with Hall?
X. J.: Why, he has been one OF
the leaders of the Republican party
until he couldn't get the nomination
of his own party. He was chairman
of the Republican county convention
last August, and was delegate to the
Republican state convention.
Ole: Is that all true?
K. j.: That is true, and we have
the record for it. And the Democratic
legislative district conspiracy Of four
counties, acknowledged by nominal
ing Hall, that there was not Demo
crat in those four counties competent
to fill the position of representative
to the legislature. I was in favor OF
nominating Big Stone Democrat
tor the position.
Ole: What do think the Demo-
crots will do in regard to the legisla-
tive ticket?
XII: Some will vote for Barrett,
and others will vote for Crossfield or
some independent Democratic can
didase.
Ole: What do you think will be
the result in Stevens county?
X. J.: If the report is true that
some of the Democratic candidates
who are looking for a reelection had
a hand in the outrage, the political
man slaughter enacted in the Demo-
cratic legislative convention, they
will ind an unexpected change in the
election returns, and one that will
teach them to stand by the party In
the future,
Ole: What do you think of the
general result?
XII. Oh, I think Cleveland will
be elected, and also Wilson and Can
ming.
Ole: alright. Good bye, K. J.
