One Fact

Is worth column of rhetoric, said an
American statesman. 1t is a fact, estab-
lisbed by the testimony of thousands of
people, that Hoods Sarsaparilla does cure
scrofula, salt rheum, and other diseases or
affections arising from impure state or low
condition of the blood. 1t also overcomes
that tired feeling, creates a good appetite,
and gives strength to every part of the
system. Try it.

icious. Raw blubber of the whale is
great delicacy. Their manner of
eating is dog like. Fixing their teeth

they saw off the portion which the

and fish, while all other work is
done by the women. They know moth
