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 a certain extent
clogged with waste and the blood
loaded with impurities, owing to lack
of exercise, close confinement in poor
ly ventilated shops and homes and
other causes. This is the cause of the
dull, sluggish, tired feeling SO gener-
al at this season, and which must be
overcome, or the health may be en-
tirely broken down. Hoods Sarsa-
parilla has attained the greatest pop
ularity all over the country as the
favorite spring medicine. 1t expels
the accumulation Of impurities
through the bowels, kidneys, liver,
lungs and skin, gives to the blood the
purity and quality necessary to good
health and oYercomes that tired feel
ing.

The following from the St. Paul
News of the 9Th inst, will be enjoyed
by II. T. Bevans' many friends in this
county:
A very irate widow, whose name
figures on the pension list to the tune
of SIS per month, walked into the adj
jutant generals Office this morning
and threatened to exterminate the
staff unless the government agreed to
pay her an extra allowance for the
care and expense entailed upon her by
having to look after her husband dur
ing his sickness. Mr.. Bevans tried to
explain to her that it was a mere mat
tor of wifely duty which the govern
ment was in no way bound to COM
pensate. She. was determined, how
ever, and insisted that she deserved
money for her trouble. She swayed
her umbrella violently in the vicinity
of Mr.. Muehlberg's head while shak-
ing her fist in close proximity to Mr..
Bevan's nasal organ. The former
took advantage of the first opportun-
ity he could get and lodged out of
the Office, leaving his assistant to deal
with the rustic amazon. Her angry
expressions of threat drew quite
collection of spectators, who enjoyed
Mr.. Bevans' unsoldier like situation
immensely. It isn't all sunshine in
pension office.

The many cases of rheumatism
cured by Chamberlain's Pain Balm
during the past few months have Civ
en- the people great confidence in its
curative properties, and have shown
that there is one preparation that can
be depended upon for that painful
and aggravating disease. Honaker
Bros, Lorain, Ohio, say: "Mr. Moses
Price of this place was troubled with
rheumatism for long time. Cham
berlain's Pain Balm has cured him.
He says that the Balm has no equal"

Mrs. HENRY S. JUDsoN, Pres

Delano Eagle: If you go home one
of these fine spring moons and find
your wife on top of the centre table
with a scrubbing brush in her hand,
and the baby in the middle
of the floor playing with
paper of tacks, don't be surprised and
don't get mad and say that marriage
is failure" just because you are
obliged to eat few crackers and
piece Of cheese seated on soap box,
but remember that your wife is sim
ply observing time-honored custom.
Eat your primitive meal in philosophi-
cal silence and thank the Lord that
"house cleaning" comes only once
year.

The Lake Mills correspondent of
the Jefferson County (Wis.) Union
says: Vivian De Monto's company
gave an entertainment at the Opera
Hall last Tuesday evening, having a
fair attendance. Should they come
again to Lake Mills the opera house
would not be large enough to hold
the crowd. It is fine troupe and
every act is well played. It is worth
the admission fee to hear the lady
cornetist, and they may well chal-
lenge the world to beat her in this
especial line of music. We were I'M
der the impression that we had heard
all that could be done with the cornet,
but what we have heard before is
tame in comparison with this.

An Electric Elevated Road In England.


No misgivings need apply to the case
Of the new railway at Liverpool. In size
and power, as well as in the ingenuity of
it's details, it surpasses the best American
models. Il extends along the quays Of
the great line of docks On the Mersey for
nearly seven miles. Its carriages are Of
full size, not arranged like tram car,
but Ike the ordinary passenger car Of
the United States, each being in two
compartments and capable Of seating 81
persons. Beneath each car is an electric
motor of from 100 to 70 horsepower, and
the speed will be as high as so miles an
hour
The power to work the trains, and
with them the accessories of signals and
light, is the same, and generated from a
single point on the system. The whole
runs upon an overhead railroad" or con-
tinuous bridge of iron. That is not, how
ever, of the essence of an electric railway,
though the lghtness of electric rolling
gear makes such an arrangement cheap
and suitable for the purpose.-London

The Captains Sight.

1
1t is sometimes a fault of young PEG
pie to rely too fully upon their own opin
ions or impressions, and there are grown
people who are quite too sure regarding
matters to which they have given little
attention. A passenger on French
| steamer tells this story:
The wind was fresh, and we were run
ming at the rate of 10 knots an hour.
Our mariners were deceived in their cal
culations, and as the lead did not indi-
cate the proximity of the coast they were
expected to approach they concluded
that the currents had carried us into tho
channel. One morning at break Of day
heard the captain exclaim:
81 see breakers through the mist"
NJ. de IAiguille, an officer of superior
merit, who nevertheless displayed some
times too much of the confidence of
youth, replied with a smile, "Those
breakers, captain, are nowhere but in
your glass"
"Young man." said our old captain,
with a tone of anger, ''you are major
general to the squadron and may give it
the orders you think proper, but know
what l have to do. It is I who answer
for the safety of my ship. shall there
fore give orders to tack, for there is not
a moment to be lost"
He accordingly gave that order, and
during its execution, the fog having sud-
denly cleared away, we perceived at
about 200 yards from US the rocks against
which our feet would inevitably have
persisted Fortunately the whole squad
ron initiated the movement of our YES
sci, and all danger was over.
The young officer lost no time in thank
ing the captain for his wise reproof, and
for his adherence to the duties Of his po-
sition.-Youth's Companion.
