the merchants close their stores at
O'Clock after April 1st? 1t has been a
custom with them for a number Of years
aud there is no reason why they will not
close this year. They do not sell goods
enough after dark to paw for the OIL they
burn. Yes, the merchants are going to
close and give the clerks little time to
read and take recreation.

"Four years ago. while living in Trinidad,
Colorado, a small lump appeared on my neck,
which gradually swelled and developed into an
intensely painful livid sore with a centre
filed with granulations like shot. Another sore
appeared an inch or two distant and had to
give up and return to my parents in Brooklyn.
Physicians pronounced them cancers and
Performed An Operation
for their removal. I suffered . great deal
before the operation, and far worse since. One
of the cancers the smaller one, healed over but
was as sore as ever, while the other did not
heal and was worse. The physicians told me
would have to submit to another operation, but
said I would Die First
A similar lump year ago came on the right side
of my neck. For many months could swallow
only liquid OF very softfood and sometimes found
great dimculty in speaking eleud. At the
suggestion of friend, 1 began taking Hoods

did not take 1t years ago. and thus have pre-
