The Saturday Half Holiday.

The movement in favor of Saturday
afternoon as half holiday is growing
in the older states, although it would be
hard for it to get foothold as yet in
the new states Of the west where day
light is not long enough to do the work
that must be done, and that quickly.
New York, New Jersey and few other
states have laws which name half holt
days The Saturday half holiday is,
however, left partly discretionary. In
the largest cities of the older states it is
becoming a common practice now vol
unfairly to close dry goods stores and
many other business houses at noon of
saturday from the middle of June to the
middle of September Sometimes this
is the case only during the months of
July and August. 1t can be done very
well in the great cities for midsummer
is the dullest business time of year with
them.
The Saturday half holiday gives clerks
and all who work long hours time to get
breath of fresh air and get themselves
in good order for Sunday. Employers
are really encouraging it wherever it is
at all practicable. and the considerable
among them are the last ones to oppose
the Saturday half holiday What is lost
in time is more than gained in the phys
ical and mental vigor given by the little
breathing spell.

Is common exclamation at this season.
There is certain bracing effect in cold
air which is lost when the weather grows
warmer; and when Nature is renewing
her youth, her admirers feel dull, sluggish
and tired. This condition is owing main
ly to the impure condition of the blood
and its failure to supply healthy tissue to
the various organs Of the body. 1t is re.
markable how susceptible the system is to
the help to be derived from good medi-
cine at this season. Possessing just those
purifying. building-up qualities which
the body Graves, Hoods Sarsaparilla soon
overcomes that tired feeling, restores the
appetite, purifies the blood, and, In short,
imparts vigorous health. Its thousands
of friends as with one voice declare "It

One Forbes, who came to this
town from Weston a year ago OF
more, was arrested by officer Yearly
on Tuesday on grand jurors CON-
plant charging an assault upon Riley
Davidson. Forbes was required to
furnish bail in the sum of 5000 for
his appearance before justice Abbott
on the goth. Failing to do this the
officer, after waiting over "a hours,
was on the point of starting with his
prisoner for the county Jail when the
matter was settled. Forbes is to pa,
Davidson $50. This satisfies David
son and at the same time saves th,
town board bill at Newfane anC
the expense of taking care of Forbes
family. This latter, we suppose, sat
isles the majesty of the law, and S,
everything is lovely until the cider ju!
comes around again.
