Malaria

Literally means bad air. Poisonous
germs arising from low. marshy land, or
from decayed vegetable matter, are
breathed into the lungs, taken up by the
blood, and unless the vital fluid is puri-
fled by the use of good medicine like
Hoods Sarsaparilla, the unfortunate vic
tim is soon overpowered. Even in the
most advanced cases, where the terrible
fever prevails, this successful medicine
has effected remarkable cures. Those
who are exposed to malarial or other
poisons should keep the blood pure by
taking Hoods Sarsaparilla.

PLAYING RIPS IN THE oATsKILI 4,


There is in the village of Catskill Rip
Van Wmkle Club. This society did me
the honor to invite me act the character
in their town. accepted, and when
arrived was met by the worthy president
and other members of the club, among
whom was young Nicholas Vedder, who
claimed to be lineal descendant of the
original "Old Nick" Emulating the
spirit of evolution, the citizens had
turned the skating-rink into theatre,
and very respectable looking establish
ment it made, though in its transition
state the marks of rollers did "cling to it
STILL" | was taking n cup of tea at the
table in the hotel when l was attracted
to the colored waiter, who was giving a
graphic and detailed account of this
legend of the Catskill Mountains to one
of the boarders who sat nearly opposite
to me.
Eyes, sah," he continued; Grip went
up into de mountains, slep' for twenty
years, and when he come back hyar in
dis berry town his own folk didn't know
him."
"Why," said his listener, ''you don't
believe the story's true?'
True? oh course it is. Why point
ing at me, 'dat's dc man."
The town was filled with farmers and
their wives who had come from far and
near to see the opening of the new
theatre, and also, think l may say, to
for the first time the story which Wash
ington Irving had laid almost at their
very doors.
As drove to the theatre the rain came
down in torrents, the thunder rolled and
the lightning played around the peaks of
the distant mountains under the very
shadow of which / was to act the play.
1t gave me very strange sensation.
When got to the theatre | could scarce
ly get in, the crowd was so great about
the door-countrymen trying to get into
the ticket Office instead of the proper en-
trance, and anxious and incredulOus old
ladies endeavoring to squeeze past the
doorkeeper but refusing to give up their
tickets. The rush over, the play began.
The audience was intent on the scene as
it progressed and seemed anxious not to
lose word. During the scene in the
last act where Rip inquiries of the Inn
keeper, SIS this the village of Falling
Water?' | altered the text and substi
tuted the correct name, SIS this the viii
lage of Catskill?" The crowded house
almost held its breath. The name of the
village seemed to bring the scene home
to every man, woman, and child that was
looking ut it. From tins time on the in
tercst was at it's full tension. Surely
hld never seen an audience so struck
with the play before,
There was reception held ut the club
lfter the play, and the worthy president
in introducing me to the company was
so nervous that he announced me as
"Mr. Washington Irving. ."-.JOScph JET

The way Canadians multiply and
replenish the earth is illustrated by the
fact that under the Mercier act of the
Province of Quebec, which gives TO every
family of twelve children, one hundred
acres of land, so far 100000 acres have
been claimed by such families, and still
the good work goes on. This brings the
population connected with families of
twelve or more children up to 1900.
1t appears by the returns already in that
some of the claimants families have
twenty two children each. If Canada
should ever be annexed to this great and
glorious country what time political
candidates would have kissing the
babies. -PidtfSburgh Republican.
