ScrOfuIa

Is the most ancient and most general of all dis
eases. Scarcely family is entirely free from it,
while thousands everywhere are its suffering
slaves. Hoods Sarsaparilla has had remarkable
success in curing every form Of scrofula. The
most severe aud painful running sores, swellings
In the neck or goitre, humor in the eyes, causing
partial or total blindness, have yielded to the pow
erful effects Of this medicine. 1t thoroughly re-
moves every trace of impurity from the blood
and builds up the weakened system. All who
suffer from scrofula should certainly give Hoods
Sarsaparilla fair trial.
The Worst Type.
"My son was afflicted with the worst type of
scrofula, and on the recommendation Of my drug
gist gave him Hoods Sarsapara. Today is
sound and well, notwithstanding 1t was said there
was not enough m dicine in Illinois to effect a
cure" j. CHRISTIAN, Illipolis. Ill.
N B. If you decide, from what you have heard
or read, that you will take Hoods Sarsaparilla, do
not be induced to buy anything else instead.

Alta recent meeting of the Nomans

Young caused quite stir by her re-
Spouse to the toast: "Our Husbands. ;"
Quoting Burns, Mrs. Young began;
"Husband, husband, cease your strife,

have none, unless you know now to pre-
serve them. Some women do this by
keeping him in hot water. Others let
them freeze by their carelessness and IN
difference. Some keep them in stew
by irritating ways and moods. Others
roast them or keep them in pickle all
their lives.

NEW KIND OF FLY.

Rocks Struc., It aud Found 1t Uncom.
monty Interesting.
Rocks is a pug. well-bred. calm and
dignihed He never does any thing that
is not good form fer pug, except to
catch flies. He likes to lie on the porch
and enjoy tho light and air, and on such
occasions be is particularly resentful of
the annoyance caused by flies. 1t would
be sheer robbery of any ay life insnr-
ance company to take out policy on
the life OF fly that it was known would
ever attempt to light on Rocks nose.
Rocks does not look like dangerous
dog, according to the New York Sun,
and when he is asleep, or half asleep,
it seems impossible for him to move
suddenly. Many 4 ly has lost his life
by trusting to this appearance; there
has been prospective satisfaction ct the
thought OF biting so fat u dog, and in
tho giddy jiy's mind an added pleasure
over the chance to worry one SO self-sat-
isfcd and decorous; but when Rocks,
awakening without warning from what
appears a profound slumber, snaps, the
lily is lost.
1t is to be regretted that Rocks infor-
nation concerning nying things is not
more extended; lift were he would have
been spared an experience on Thursday
that for time seriously disturbed him.
While he was lying on the porch a
wasp came along. 1t was just an ordi-
nary wasp, hut like all wasps, self-as-
sertiye and defiant, and, as subsequent
events demonstrated, It's storage bat
terry was full and its machinery in order.
1t sailed around Rocks nose with smooth
recklessness for fifteen or twenty Sec
onds. Rocks seemed asleep but the
wasp really didn't care whether he was
or not Rocks thought it was a particu-
larry il!-mannered and overgrown fy,
lie snapped at it and got it.
About three seconds later Rocks
stood UP; he looked careworn and his
tail was ont OF curl. lie turned his head
slowly toward the open door, and looked
as though he thought he would go in
side for awhile, where the flies were less
intrusive. lie stood undecided for a
moment, and then

The aboyed diagram of vacuum is in
serted to aid in conveying some idea OF
how suddenly Rocks moved. He went
so fast that be left q hole in the air. In
that moment while he had stood irrcso-
lutte the resolute wasp had hooked on It's
storage battery and started every thing
at once, buzz saws, gang saws, electric
light plant, pulp machinery, and all, and
Rocks jumped so quickly that he was in
visible until he landed ten feet away.
1t is mean to laugh at a dog, and

light in his discontinue; and if the

DUEL WITH LARlATS.

Exciting Battle to tho Death Detwcon
In:uriated Mexican Cowboys.
y novel duel was fought near Moore's
station between two Mexican cowboys
named Jose Carrasco and Manuel Bosco,
says tho Louisville Courier-J Journal.
Carrasco was in possession of fine
notified cow which Bosco claimed be-
longed to him and had been stolen
some time previous. The two men met
in the roadway. They were both on
horseback and their lariats hung from
the ponme!s of their saddles. Bosco
hailed Carrasco and demanded the re-
turn of his COW. The latter became
furious at the suggestion that he had
come into possession of stolen COW,
and his Mexican blood began to boil.
Words of q sulphurous nature began to
pass between the cowboys, when Bosco
called Carrasco u liar.
Scarcely had the words been spoken
when quick as a fash the irate Car
rasco grasped his lasso from his saddle,
and, twirling it with quick movement
over his head, sent it with swish
toward Bosco's neck. The latter ducked
his head and grabbed his lariat as he
did SO.
Then began one of the fercest blood
less battles that has ever been recorded.
Up and down the roadway tho two
horsemen dashed, the lassoes of the
duelists flying and circling in tho air.
Not word was spoken. As fast as the
lassoes fell short of their mark they
were jerked quickly together, and with a
twirl over 10 head each cowboy en-
deavored to encircle the others neck.
The horses were HeclSed with foam,
and both Of them dashed away in the
same direction, seeming to realize the
fight to the death going on between the
riders. On sped the horses, but not a
word spoke the fighters. Bosco finally
turned his eyes from the other cowboy
for an instant, and. quick as a fash,
Carrasco dropped the moose Of his lariat
over his adversary's neck, swung his
pony around with a jerk, and putting
spurs to the animal, started off in the
opposite direction.
Bosco was ierked from his horses back
SO suddenly that his neck was broken,
and he was dragged over the ground at
full speed for over a nils The victor
disengaged his lariat froal us victims
neck and coolly rode into town.
