With reasonably good health and
the rapid recovery of the frozen out
vegetation our people appear to Le
entering the second spring season with
renewed force and energy. Corn
planting and garden making is now in
order. Our Sunday school took winter
quarters but has recently reorganized
with bright prospects of future useful
ness. On Saturday last James Staten,
ayoung man in the employ of T. A.
Cain, fell from a wagon load of hay,

success in procuring the services of
such fine instiuctress as we know
Miss Mollie to be. The Eureka club

In The Spring

Nearly everybody needs good medi
cine. The impurities which have ac-
cumulated in the blood during the cold
months must be expelled, or when the
mild days come, and the effect of brac-
ing air is lost, the body is liable to be
overcome by debility or some serious
disease. The remarkable success
achieved by Hoods Sarsaparilla, and
the many words of praise it has receiv-
ed, make it worthy your confidence
We ask you to give this medicine a
trial. We are sure it will do you good.
Read the testimonials published in be-
half of Hoods Sarsaparilla, all from
reliable, grateful people. They tell the
story.

A Mild Rebuke.

In a small New England village there
lives a man named Jenkins Sanderson
whose enormous, ungainly figure and
forbidding expression of countenance
seem to believe his real gentleness and
good nature and make him an object
of distrust ana sometimes even of hor-
ror to strangers. His wife is thin,

People Who Make History.

The people who make history, who
achieve success or make their mark in
any line, are the people in whom. every
one is interested and when we are in
terested in people it is an immense
satisfaction If we can know Just how
they look. The unique feature re-
Gently introduced in Demorest's Fam
lily magazine is in touch with this uni
versal desire every month two pages
are devoted to superb half tone port
rats, quite equal to photos, and about
cabinet size, of celebrities of every
class and all eras, which are printed
so they may be removed from the
magazine without mutilating it, and
arranged in an album especially de.
signed to accommodate them. Everyone
thus has an exceptional opportunity
lor indulging in the fashionable fad of
collecting portraits, and can make dur
ing the year, at minimum expense
and with no trouble, collection that
would cost at least 800 if photos were
purchased "A word to the wise is
sufficient
But there are many equally attrac-
tive features in the May number of
this always attractive magazine. Gen.
Lew Wallace, Gen. James Grant Will

Howe, Prof. H. H. Boyesen and Ger
trude Atherton, give Advice to Young

ing from such sources, is as valuable
as gold, and the portrait of each is
given with the advice. The paper ON
Russian Home Industries is superbly
illustrated and eminently interesting.

is an unique article on mo lern facial
surgery. and the illustrGions make the
wonderful transformations still more
vivid to the reader all the stories are
