Complaints Well Grounded.

Frequent complaints have been made
of the inaccuracy or the change in the
envelopes giver to passengers in the
cars of the St. Paul City railway. For
instance, passenger gives the driver a
25-cent piece and receives an envelope
containing Is cents or 20 cents in
change, seldom less than Is,
nor more than 20. These COM
plants are not the result Of fancy, and
it would seem that considering the poor
street car service in st. Paul, the
officials of the city railway should at
least be careful in making up the pack
cts of change. They, of course, are re-
sponsible, for the drivers have nothing
to do with fixing up the envelopes. Sell

The blizzard that has prevailed in St.
Paul since Saturday night has caused
great annoyance and suffering through
out the city. The cable line was block

drifts on every hand materially delayed
the horse cars. The snow was of the
damp kind that penetrated the strong

Yesterday afternoon trains on the Hast

have been convened much earlier in the
young mans military career. An otf1cer
of the department commanders stan
yesterday received from Handfortn
request to send him 81 for copy OF his
book entitled Judgment; A Coup de
Grace to the Regular Army" Accom-
panying the request is the following
compositions:
How nice it is to have a gun,
And sleep in the shade, or drill i'll the sun,
And eat our rations day by day,
And try to drive dull care away
We give our lives for our country.
Oh, who can tell the joy we feel.
AS from the suffers store we reel,
With beer on board,
AS full as lord,
We give our lives for our country.
How cruel are they, who would, as they say,
Relieve us of our great dutiesl
They ought to be shot
And tied in a knot
We give our lives for our country.
Then let us be brave, and try hard to save
This noble army of martyrs.
We do all we can;
Our work you may scan
We give our lives for our country.
Alas, who can tell what ingratitude fell
The people would show to retire us?
Our hearts it would touch,
For we save them so much
We give our lives for our country.
Handforth assures the officer to whom
the letter is addressed that the above
poem has been designed by him for
special purpose. He concludes his let
ter thus: II have only kind regards for
many officers in the army, and especially
for those at Fort Smelling, in spite of the
fact that l expect to have the regular
army abolished. | hope that instead of
feeling angry towards me they will
quietly prepare themselves for such
result. it must come anyway in few
years. [Signed, B. F. HANDFoRTH."
In commenting upon the poem the
recipient said that Handforth was doing
an unwise thing in circulating it, as the
suggestion contained in the first line OF
the first stanza might eliminate in re-
moving it's author to more ethereal lati-
tudes before his cherished scheme in re-
gard to the army was accomplished.
The lady who is married to HandfOrth
is spoken of in words of warmest praise
and sympathy by the officers in st. Paul
and Fort Smelling, to the majority OF
whom she is well known.

PURIFY YOUR BLOOD,

impurities in the blood produce diseases.
Bodily and mental health depend upon a
healthy condition of the blood. The blood
particularly in the spring and during the hot
summer months, becomes clogged with i'm
purltles, which poison it and generate dis
ease. A harmless blood purifier, without
particle of mineral poison in it, such as ner-
curry or potash, is necessary to remove these
impurities and to restore the healthy tone OF
mind and body. The best purifier and tonic
known to the world is Swift's Specific (S.S.s.l
In regard to its wonderful purifying and
tonic powers we give few testimonials as
follows:
Mr.. VIM. A. Siebold with Geo. P. Rowell s.
Co., 10 Spruce Street, New York, writes March
18th, 1888: II feel it my duty, for the benefit
or others who may be afflicted as was, to
write you this letter, which you can use as
my testimony in any way you choose. win
answer any inquiry from others in relation
to the facts herewith stated. In February
last suffered great pain and inconvenience
from boils, all over my neck; I could not turn
my head without acute pain and my blood
was in poor condition. After trying all the
usual remedies in such cases, and finding no
relief, by the persuasion Of Mr.. ]. W. Fears,
Manager Of your New York Office, used one
bottle S. s. s, and I improved rapidly and
very soon I was entirely relieved of my
Jobs Comforters.' Now not sign of my
affiiction can be seen. I feel strong and cheer
full S. S. S. is fine tonic as proved in my
case. sleep soundly and my appetite is good.
DR.. j. n. Cheney, well-known physician
writes from Ellaville, Georgia 81 use S. s. s.
IA convalescent fever cases with the best re-
suits. 1t WILL in my Judgment, prevent sum-
mer dysentery, if one will take few bottles
in the spring. thus preparing the bowels fo1
the strains of summer"
Mrs. Scott Liston, ZIG Zane street dslandl
Wheeling, West Virginia, writes "Havire
used S. S. S for the blood. I can safely say
that 1t beats anything have used to cleanse
the blood and make new being out Of per-
son."
Mr. NJ S. Hamlin, Winston, n. c., writes:

up, giving me appetite and digestion, lid

waiting hot summer days. On using It Don
