Nothing Strange,

Intelligent people who realize the
important part the blood holds in keep
ing the body in a normal condition find
nothing strange in the number OF dis.
eases that Hoods Sarsaparilla is able
to cure. So many troubles result from
impure blood that the best way to treat
them is through the blood, and it is
far better to use only harmless veget-
able compounds than to dose to excess
with quinine, calomel and other drugs.
BY treating the blood with Hood ;
Sarsaparilla, scrofula, salt rheum and
what are commonly called "humors;''
dyspepsia, catarrh, rheumatism, neu.
ralgia, consumption and other troubles
That originate in impurities of the blood
o. impaired ci circulation, can all be cured.

That Tired Feeling

is a dangerous condition directly due to
depleted or impure blood. 1t should
not be allowed to continue, as in its

BIG MILITARY EXPENSES.
THE STATE SPENT LAST FEAR

Heavy Cost of tho New Military Law Over s4i 900 More Spent on the National Guard Last Year Than in is9s-Sationsi Guard Expon.es Last Year s6i.o3 Fer Capita; Governors Guards, o3i'
 Yesterdays Hartford Courant says: The military expenditures of the state for the fiscal year october 1, 1893. to September 30. 1894. show largely in- creased amount, as one of the results of the new military law.
 Soon after the passage of the new military law. Governor Morris. whose attention was called to the possibility of increased expenditures and to the fact that the new law provided for a much larger force, said that his admin istration was going to be an "economi- cal one" This may account for the ex- penditures being limited to the amount spent, as under the provisions Of the law, with the specific appropriation act repealed, there Is no limit other than the amount of money in the state treas ury, to the amount which may be spent on the military and naval" establish ment of the state.
 There was. spent by the state on the National Guard during the fiscal year ending September 30, 1884, $l75, ,773.0s, s4l,O4O.70 more than in the previous fis- cal year, during which the expenditures were $134, ,732. .3S; and an increase Of over 30 per cent. The expenditures in detail according to the amounts drawn from the treasury by the various military disbursing officers were as follows: Salaries and expenses of state

YEAR's HARNESS RECORDS.
Marks Have All Been Lowered DurinI
 the Past Season.

Marks Have All Been Lowered During
 the Past Season.
 Meriden's large number of horsemen followed the phenomenal work of the trotters during the past season with great interest. During the harness racing season just ended practically every champion record has gone by the board. .r
 Alix has replaced Nancy Hanks as the champion all aged trotter and the pride of Kentucky, the daughter of Happy Medium. has yielded up the crown to a product of the plains of Iowa. Her astute controller Monroe Salisbury, predicts that in 1895 Allx will Still further reduce the record. In appearance Alix more nearly ap- breaches the thoroughbred conforma- tion than any other trotter that ever looked through a bride, her head and neck being long and lean and clean cut and her legs fine, clean and cordy. This thoroughbred makeup Is proba- bly throw-back to imported Glencoe, sire of Iowa, which got the third dam of Alix.
 The champion pacing record of 2:04 Jointly held by Mascot and Flying Jib although the former was a race rec ord and the latter made against time stood since the fall of 1892. At Terre Haute last month Robert J. knocked the 2:O4 endways, with mile paced in 201k, and since then two other pacers, both stallions, have paced in races heats faster than 2:O4. That grand fve-year-old-stallion Ralph Wilkes gave taste of his quality when at Nashville he trotted a mile in 2:O6%; thus replacing Kremlin's and Arion's previous five-year-old records of 2:07%. Fantasy, the long-legged daughter of Chimes, has done just what her owner, c. J. Hamlin, said he would permit, and her seasons record of 2:06, although some seconds faster than the previous champion four-year- old lilly record, is, in the estimation of every one who has seen her move, not by any means the limit of her speed. Two years ago Directum attracted the notice of the harness horsemen when he defeated all the cracks of his own age-three years-at Nashville On the same track recently the bay lilly Onsqua, by Keeler, a son of King Rene, rounded off her seasons cam. paign with a winning race record o1 2:11A, stamping herself not only the champion lilly of her age, but the best three-year-old out this year., not ever | excepting Expressive and Red Bud The two-year-old lilly Impetuous set g record for that age with two heats ir 2:N%. Online's two-year-old pacing record of 2:11 was beaten this season by Directly in 2:07 and Carbonate ir 2:09A. %.
 | Directly is one of the only two of the get of the one-time champion pacing stallion, Direct, 2:05k, that have been asked to race. The other is a trotting lilly, Miss Kate, that won the Melrose stakes and record of 2:24A at Nash. vile. The stallion John R. Gentry made big gap in the pacing record for his sex, his race record of 2:O3% re placing the 2:051s of Direct and Sala. din.
 It is a fitting climax to a record. breaking season that the baby trotters should have also moved up. Late last fall, at Holton, the yearling Ally Pansy McGregor trotted a mile in 2:23%. A month ago, at San Jose, a yearline

The Inferio,ity of Woman.

lFrOm the WestminSter BuuRct.I
 Mir. Hall Caine. whose recent state ments regarding the inferiority of wo- man attracted some attention, has called down upon his unlucky head a spirited rejoinder from John Strange Winter CMrs. Stannard) In the com mencement of her literary career. Mrs. Stannard says in the "Young Wo- man." herr father died. leaving the family without a penny. She lived far from London and had no friends to help her in the literary world "Yet, before was thirty. my name was known all over the English speaking world. I have married. brought chil- dren into the world. ruled my house sold a million and half of books kept up an enormous circle of friends helped several charities and many strugglers both in kind and in infiu. ence, have kept my house better than most women. and have husband and CT really happy unless in my actual presence"
 "On the other hand" Mrs. stannard proceeds, you have Mir. Hall Caine who is a small, fragile man. who can. not work in London. who, by his owr showing, is thoroughly exhausted by the effort of writing a single book, a bundle of nerves and fancies. He be. gan his literary career with an enor' nous advantage over me. He has a wife to mind his house, and to bolster him up when his nerves get too much for him. l fail to see where his i'm.

: J, B. CURTIS BLINDNESs..f

It Does Not Interfere With His Taking
 High Stand in College.
 The Chicago Sunday Herald. has the following relative to a son of Cornelius Curtis, brother of John c. Curtis of Bridgeport and formerly a resident of that city:
 Standing on the football field of the University of Chicago at the games, leaning on the arm of friend, is the familiar figure of a student perfectly blind. His name is John B. Curtis. He takes as great an interest in a touch- down and yells as loud as any other boy on the field. He is going to take g bachelors degree this year and of all the winners of academical laurels he should excite the highest admiration, for not only has he such obstacles to contend against in his education, but he has succeeded in overcoming them so thoroughly that he will graduate very high in his classes.
 Curtis was at the State Blind asylum three years, at the Hyde Park high school two years and at the University of Michigan a. year. This is his third year at the University of Chicago. His marvellous memory and his acute at- tention have won him high honors in his university classes. While his fel- lows are taking notes at the lectures Curtis sits quietly and absorbs and re- tains what his instructor says. None of his college textbooks are in raised letters and his lessons are read to him. In this connection he brings into use a little mechanism for taking notes when he likes. It is small nickel-plated instrument, easily carried in his pock- ct, with six keys, something after the fashion of the modern typewriter, ex- cept that, instead of leaving the i'm pression of letter, it bricks a dot in the paper. Since all the letters are a combination of six or less dots, he has acquired great facility in the use of the instrument and in the reading of his own notes.
 As Is often the case with the blind, after the accident which deprived him of his eyesight his other senses became more keen. At present his sense of touch is marvellous and his hearing is wonderful. If once he, has shaken hands with a person he can in the fu- ture always call that person by name upon the formality of a second hand shake.
 Not only is he a fine scholar, but he takes great interest in all the ath- letic contests of the university, and is a constant attendant at the football games and at the athletic contests in the gymnasium in the winter. Being kept informed of all the movements of the teams, which side is gaining and which is losing in advantage, he fol- lows the play with keen interest.
 Young Curtis is a master of the flute and beguiies his leisure hours at home with melodies on this charming instru- ment. At one time he thought serious ly of studying to be a professional mu- sician, but abandoned this idea for that of pedagogy. His method of pro cedure in music is unique. The music Is first read to him and kranslating 1t into nondenclature of his own, he bricks in on paper and then commits fit to memory. Nor does he seem to be Handicapped either.by the difficulty

 The total membership of the National Guard October 30 was 2.SSO, which makes the per capita expenses to the state of the maintenance of the Ma tional Guard last year s61.0S.
 The four companies of the Governors Guard cost $14,63SS6 in 1894 against s13.OS0.45 in 1893. Of this amount '$S,- 4s1 .55 was spent in uniforms for the Sec ond Company Foot Guard at New Ha- ven, about $S4 per man, and $l,537.4l was expended in uniforms for the First Company Horse Guard of this city. There are about 480 officers and men in the Governors Guard. Each of the two foot companies has 11S men and the two companies of horse have about 75 men each. The total expenditures of the state for the military establishment, National Guard, including the New Ha- ven navy - naval militia-Governor's Guard. horse, foot and dragoons, for this year was $190, 411.94, much greater sum expended by the state for any other branch of the state government except the judiciary expenses, common schools and humane institutions. It is greater than in any previous year since 1882. with the exception of 1892, when owing to two eight day encampments falling within the fifteen months cover ed by the report, the end of the fiscal year having been changed from June 30 to September. 30, the amount reached the aggregate of $235, ,73S.95, in a period of heretofore unparalleled extravagance in military expenditures
 The figures for the National Guard for the previous year are as follows: 1883, $17O, ,294 49; 1884, $152, ,9456S; 1885, (nine months) $eS, ,969. .31; 1886, $99,394.63; 1887, $167, ,5s2. .95; 1888, $153,9O7; 1889, SIP, ,15201 1890, $10S, 10; 1891, $117 175.60; 1892, f1f- teen months) $230, ,673.26; 1893, $134. .732.3S; a total of $1, ,546, ,37S.41, or, an average for the eleven years of $40, 40, $35, 1000 less than the expenditures were the past year. ...f
 The expenditures on account of the Governors Guard for the same period were $79.6O7.67, an average of $7,237. .06, or less than one-half the amount spent up- on those OrudIucIltdl duU ulSlOrlC OTSdu- izations last year. By years the ex- penditures were: 1883, $7,49559; 1884, $5,- 092.S7; 1885, $6,424.1S; 1886, 5000; 1887, s7546 47; 1888. $9,S12 45; 1889, $7,2SS ss; 1890, $5,s47.5s; 1891, $6,97sOs; 1892. $5,065. .6s; 1893, $13,06o.45. In three years the ex- penditures on account of the Cover nors Guard have jumped from s5,065. 6s to $14,6SS.Se. The per capita expense last year was about $31.
 It is probable that the quarter-master general and the paymaster general had each small balances on hand at the end of the fiscal year, but this is more than offset by the expenditure which the quarter-master general had incurred by the uncompleted contract for work at the new state rifle range. To meet the expenditure and pay current bills falling due, the quarter-master general drew ilo.ooo .a from the treasury in the

POLITICS AT THE FAIR.

The introduction of politics into the
county fair has received severe con-
demnation from many of the visitors
and is certainly to be deprecated
The scheme was probably we'll intend
ed by those who originated it and was
expected to largely swell the receipts
of the society but it is not plain that
one dollar was gained thereby. On
the contrary some persons are suppos-
ed to have stayed away on that very
account. The annual county fair has
been, and should be, a common meet
ing ground for all of our citizens with
out regard to party affiliations, and
on the four days allotted to it all poll
teal chickering's should be laid aside.
The avowed object of the fair is to
promote the interests of agriculture
and the mechanic arts, and it is diff
cult to see how these can be advanced
by political discussion and argument.
This is the first time that such injudi-
cious means have been employed to in
crease the attendance and let us hope
it will be the last
