tertainment for the debt of the Presby-
terrain Church. His ability as an elocu-
zionist, humorist and varsatile character
impersona'or is recognized by the
religious press of New York, Chicago,
Philadelphia and Baltimore, and his ap
pearance in Annapolis promises our
people really the talented entertainment
of the season; though young in years.

The spring,

OF all seasons in the year, Is the one for
making radical changes in regard to
health. During the winter, the system
becomes TO certain extent clogged with
waste, and the blood loaded with impuri-
ties, owing to lack of exercise, close con-
finement In poorly ventilated shops and
homes, and other causes. This is the
cause of the dull, sluggish, tired feeling
so general at this season, and which
must be overcome, or the health may be
entirely broken down. Hoods Sarsapa
rilla has attained the greatest popularity
all over the country as the favorite
Spring Medicine. 1t expels the accumu-
lation of impurities through the bowels,
kidneys. liver, lungs and skin, gives to
the blood the purity and quality neces-
sary to good health and overcomes that
tired feeling
