lust A LITTLE HELP.
That is All Which is Required at This
Time of the Year-Do You Know
What to Do?


We hear great deal, just now, about spring
medicines. 1t Is known that people feel run
down after the labors and siege of winter, and
II is assumed they need a spring medicine.
This is not true. Spring medicines are not
needed nature will throw off the rheums in
the blood which have accumulated during the
winter, if she has only little help. Nature is
able TO clean her own house, and take care of
her own household, with a little assistance,
and little, gentle stimulant is all the spring
medicine anyone requires. But" you may
say, what do you mean by stimulant, and
what do l require?" We answer, something
absolutely pure, powerful and which has been
proved to abundantly answer the purpose.
Unquestionably, whisky, il of the right kind
is the proper thing to use, but unfortunately,
there are few good WHISTLES IN the market
and only one which is absolutely pure, and pos
sesses medicinal qualities. That whisky is
Dufy's Pure Malt. 1t has been upon the
market for years. It has the unqualified in
dorsement of physicians and chemists and it
Is the only whisky which can be recon-
mended. 1t is true, certain INSCRIPTIONS
druggists and grocers seek to sell other and in
ierlor goods, claiming they are equal to
Dunys, but they possess little purity and no
medicinal power whatever, whereas Dufy's
IS specially designed as a medicinal whisky
1t would be well TO bear these facts in mind
when considering the subject of spring medi-
clneS, and how to best put the system in shape
Tor the requirements OF the season.

A Gas Company EmpIoye Has Lively
Experience.
Thomas Sullivan, an employe of the
gas company, came very near having the
life crushed out of him yesterday. He
was working at the bottom Of an excava-
ton at Fourth and streets when horse
driven by Ted Horstmeyer became UNI
manageable in that vicinity, reared and
fell into the ditch.
The animal fell right over the spot
where Sullivan was whrking, and all
who who witnessed the occurrence sup
posed that the latter was crushed to death
sullivan, however, managed to crawl
out from beneath the kicking and squirm-
ing animal, and, to the surprise of all,
had escaped injury beyond few slight
bruises.

Little Ereddie,S Knife

Fred Viskers, charged with having
stolen pocket-knife valued at twenty
five cents, was arralgned in the Police
Court yesterday. Freddie Viskers has
no whiskers, and is only about three feet
tall and or years of age. He stood up
as straight as he could, and scorned the
allegation that the knife was worth 1.-TWO
bits"
The case was so important as to re-
qulre continuance until to-day The
court almost needed a telescope to find
the small offender, and perhaps the de-
lay made is TO allow the boy to grow to
visible proportions.
