&C. 1. Hood & Co., Lowell Mass:
Gentlemen: Hoods Sarsaparlla has done
so much for my children that 1t is with pleasure
and feeling Of thankfulness that 1 write for
publication few lines in commentator Of It
I cannot ind words strong enough to express
our confidence and gratitude for Hoods Sarsa-
parilla. Both Of my little girls have been
troubled with salt rheum. When quite small,
blotches formed all over their bodies and their
limbs. The flesh broke out and the little ones
Suffered Great Agony
on account of the itching sensation. l had read
Of the good Hoods Sarsaparilla had done in
cases of salt rheum, so l decided to give it a
trial. Myrtle. five years old, had several erup-
lions on her forehead, while Bernice, six years
old, suffered much from sores back of her ears.
After the first bottle had been taken the little
ones began to improve; they seemed brighter
and the humor
Began to Disappear.
They have taken FIVE bottles and Myrtle Is
entirely cured. Her flesh is smooth and soft,
her health is better and she Is bright and
sprightly as any child of Ave years Of age.
From the start. Bernice has improved and the
humor is nearly all gone and she is in better

KNOWLEDGE

Brings comfort and improvement and
tends to personal enjoyment when
rightly used. The many, who live bet
ter than others and enjoy life more, with
less expenditure, by more promptly
adapting the worlds best products to
the needs of physical being, will attest
the value to health Of the pure liquid
laxative principles embraced in the
remedy, Syrup Of Figs.
Its excellence is due to its presenting
in the form most acceptable and pleas
ant to the taste, the refreshing and truly
beneficial properties of perfect lax
alive; effectually cleansing the system,
dispelling colds, headaches and fevers
and permanently curing constipation.
It has given satisfaction to millions and
met with the approval of the medical
profession, because it acts on the Kid
neys, Liver and Bowels without weak
ening them and it is perfectly free from
every Objectionable substance. -.
Syrup of Figs is for sale by all drug
gists in SOC and 81 bottles, but it is man
ufactured by the California Fig Syrup
Co. only, whose name is printed on every
package, also the name, Syrup of Figs,
and being we'll informed, you will not
accept any substitute if offered.

Summary of Work Done by the New Yor
Constitutional Convention.

Summary of Work Done by the New York
Constitutional Convention.
ALBANY, n. Y, Oct. 2.-The con-
stitutional convention after adopting
the new constitution issued a long
manifesto to the people, going over in
detail the whole of the constitutional
convention. The address summarizes
the work as follows:
I. We renew the commentator of the con-
vention in 1857, providing for progress in agri-
culture by requiring general laws giving the
right of drainage across adjoining lands.
2. We seek to separate in the larger cities
municipal elections from state and national
elections.
3. We have provided further safeguards
against abuses in legislative procedure.
4. We have removed the prohibition against
the sale Of Onondago salt springs, which are a
source OF annual loss to the state.
5. We have removed from the constitution
all mention of the office of coroner so that the
legislature may deal freely with that branch
OF the public service now in such an unsatis-
factory condition. 49,
8. We have extended the prohibition against
lotteries so as to INCLUDE all pool selling, book
making and other forms OF gambling. -
:. We have abolished the statutory provision
limiting the right Of recovery for injuries caus
ing death to S. OO0 -.
8. We have sought to throw greater safe
guards around the elective franchise by pre-
scribing ninety instead OF ten days OF citizen
ship before the right can be exercised.
9. We have provided for new apportion-
ment of senate and assembly districts.
10 We have declared in the constitution for
principles Of civil service reform.
II. In addition to the provision for the i'm
provement Of the state prisons administration
we have prohibited the: contract system. OF
convict labor. q"
~ We have authorized the legislature to
provide for the improvement of the canals.
ID. We have required the legislature to pro-
vide for free public schools, in which all the
children OF the state may be educated and we
have prohibited absolutely the use OF public
money in aid of sectarian schools.
/. H. The revision OF the judiciary article is de-
signed to remedy the existing evils arising
from the overcrowding ofthe trial calendars.
