S1MLA, April A.-Information has reaehed here that the British colup. ls ad- vsncing on Manipur under Generals Lock- hart and Turner reached 6 large native set clement in the Bhagri valley. They halted when within sight of the settlement, and sent scouts forward to inform the Mani puris that the British generals were await ing proposals of peace. The rebels, how ever, refused to answer, and in consequence ths British troops were ordered to- ad- vance. The latter pushed forward and burned twelve villages.

The latter is now believed to have been completely cowed.

M Makes the Weak Strong

The marked benefit which people in run down or weakened state of heal derive from Hoods Sarsaparilla, conclusively proves the claim that this medicine "makes the weak strong" It does not act like stimulant, imparting fictitious strength from which there must follow a reaction of greater weakness than before, but in the most natural way Hoods Sarsaparilla overcomes that tired feel ing, creates an appetite, purifes the blood, and, in short, gives great bodily, nerve, mental and digestive strength.

Bob Burdette thinks marryinga widow
Is not the best guarantee of life of connu-
bal bliss. Hesays: @No, son don't marry
widow. She Is too calculating, and
loving by arithmetic is not romantic.
Real love should not have any more sense
than a bottle Of soda water suddenly
tapped. 1t should sizz and fuss just like
there wasn't anything else on earth. Ahl
the electric spark from the heart that has
not been tampered With The widow is
all right, and she is pretty-but don't
marry her. The idea of second hand
heart appears fiat and insipid-no foam.
No, son; don't make pawnbroker shop
out of your trusting heart. II you do
marry, teach your wife that you, who
gained her heart under the pale glitter of
the milky way, where the restless young
meteor chases its love across the heavens
II say, convince her that you were at
the barber shop until a. m. There is no
memory so pleasing as the knowledge
that your wife knows you would not lieI
But the widow is too fly. She will kiss
her second edition at 7.45 p m. 1t will
be a duty kiss, not like the gush Of the
geysers of the Rockies, but tired and
Iethargic. She will not coil about you
like the helpless and enticing ivy, while
her golden tresses wander over your col
lar. She will kiss you by geometrical
measurement aud say at parting:
George, dear, it is just 7.45 o'clock. 1t
will take you just five minutes TO get
drink, 90 minutes to get shaved, and five
minutes for a shine. Here is a dollar,
dear. Bring back 65 cents and return at
s.15 o'clock, please, as we viii have
bridal calls tonight No, boy; don't
marry commercial college. Get hold
Of girl who thinks whal you say is true,
and it will take 10 years to find out what
