SHE WAS POISONEDl

Not by anything she drank or took, but
by bad blood. Is it any wonder she
feels "blue?" In most cases blues are
only another name for bad blood. A man
OF woman feels unhappy. Life SEEM

carrying its poison all over the body, an
we call it blues.

Mrs. G. G. Hutchinson, of Pittston, Pa.
says: . consider DIR. Acker's English
Blood Elixir the best medicine in the
world, not only for blood troubles, bun

Both my wife and myself firmly be.

Recent investigations show that 4he
State Insane Asylum, at jackson, is in
adequate for proper treatment and pro-
tectlon OF Its too numerous unfortunate
inmates. Ii appears that a Wretched
state of affairs exist there at present.
The Baton Rouge Advocate says
s'It ia not well to have five hundred
persons diseased in MUD and body col
lected together as they are at the In
sane Asylum. The management of such
an institution is cumbersome md sun-
satisfactory They must be divided
This is true frem other considerations.
There are thrown together at tins in
,stitution idiots, incurables, old and
young, black and white (the races are
separate rs far as possible) The in
Huences upon one another are bad, and
frequently tile progress Of those whose.
attack is but temporary is retarded, or
even made impossible. 1t is conceded
by all that they must be separated, and
it is also conceded that more liberal
and just provision must be. made for
their maintenance
There isno class of our population
which appealssmore strongly to our
sympathy and sense of justice than
these poor nHfortunates, u majority of
whom are merely driftwood upon the
vast ocean Of humanity. We call the
of our representative to this
