Poisoned BY Scr ofula.

Is the sad story of MANY lives made miss
oracle through no fault of their own.
Scrofula is more especially than any
other hereditary disease, and for this
simple reason: Arising from impure
and insufficient blood. the disease locates
itself in the lymphatics, which are com
posed of white tissues, there is a periot,
of foetsl life when the whole body con-
sist of white tissues, and therefore the
unborn child is susceptible to this dread
ful disease. But there is remedy f.r
scrofuls. whetf or here''tary or acquired
II is Hoods SarsaDarilla, which By it,
powerful effect on the blood, expels all
trace of the disease and gives to the Vita
fluid the quality and color of health,
If you decide to take Hoods Sarsaparllla
do not accept any subtl:ute.

ter calling his attention to case Of
cruelty TO child at Hazelettviile, In
Kent county. about ten miles from
Dover. Mr.. Stout visited the place
yesterday. On reaching Dover he was
Obliged to hire horse and carriage.
and took Deputy Sheriff Clark with
him.
The child. whols named FlorenceG gif.
nth and Is but 8 years OF age, was
found at the house or farmer named
John Parvis, She was harefooted and
had no clothes, except gauze under
shirt and thin calico wrapper. This IL
the way she has been clad all winter.
She was covered with dirt, and did not
look as though she had been washed,
or her hair trimmed since she was
born.
His wife died about two years ago,
and he leaves seven children. Mr.. Stout
wrapped the child In q blanket, and
brought her to this city. AS 1t was Q
long distance TO a squire's office, and
he was anxious to get the child where
she would be comfortable, he did not
enter suit, but held the case up for the
present. The little one was given In
charge of Matron White at police sta
ton, and she was afterwards taken to
the Home for Friendless Children.
