POPULAR EVERYWHERE

Beginning with small local sale in a
retail drug store, the business of Hood
Sarsaparilla has steadily increased until
there is scarcely a village or hamlet in
the United States where it is unknown.
To-day Hoods Sarsaparilla stands at
the head in the medicine world, admired
in prosperity and eDvied in merit by
thousands of would-be competitors. II
has a larger sale than any other medi.
cine before the American public, and
probably greater than all other sarsapa,
rillas and blood purifiers combined.
Such success proves merit.

for you to try? Hoods Sarsaparilla

Inexpensive Pleasures.

The comparatively cheap pleasures
seem to be the best in life generally.
There is so little that the very rich can
buy for themselves that need stir envy
in people who are Just comfortably off.
Warmth is such delightful thing in
winter, but you and ! can get as much
as we want of it, and q millionaire can
have no more. And then there are 30
many cheap ordinary things to eat that
are Just as good az or better than the
expensive things. An epicure who lives
somewhere in the weeter2 part Of this
state was saying the other day that, hay
ing particular dinner in view, he
sent to judicious maR IN FSw York
for the best fish that the n4Svkcs offered.
They sent him fresh cod, and he ad-
mitted that no fish coald be better, and
moralized-those are has remarhs above
on the comparative cheGpEe@ Of the
feshly Qualifications that were really
best, such as potatoes and chickens and
fresh air and tea and water, warm and
cold and soap and sleep.
When one considers how good big
cent sandwich tastes when he 10 really
hungry, and what a poor thing So
dinner is when he is not, and how little
difference there is between good wine
and good water when it has once passed
ones gullet, and how much Of that
difference is IN favor Of the water, it
really lends a dangerous charm to econ
omy and simple living, and makes one
wonder that thrift is not more catch
ing, and that the delights Of avarice
should be SO generally monopolized by
the aged. --Harper's Weekly.

The usual treatment of catarrh is
very unsatisfactory, as thousands can
testify. Proper local treatment is posi-
lively necessary to success, but many, if
not most, of the remedies in general use
afford but temporary relief. A cure GER
tainly cannot be expected from snuffs,
powders, douches and washes. Ely's
Cream Balm, which is so highly com
mended, is a remedy which combines
the important requisites of quick action,
specific curative power with perfect
safety and pleasantness to the patient.

The history Of large irrigating canal
that supplies the fruit colony at River
side, Cal, shows how very small crea-
ture can sometimes defeat the work of
hundreds of grown men. The canal is
% miles long and was built 10 years
ago. Some years since it was discovered
that the supply of water was rapidly di-
minishing from some unknown cause.
Investigation showed that mischievous
little gophers were burrowing holes in
the canal and were running it. There
was nothing to be done but to line the
banks and the bottom of the ditch with
cement through its whole length, and
this work had to be postponed till the
rainy St ason was on, SO the canal would
not be needed for irrigating purposes.
After the gophers were shut out it was
found that the canal conveyed twice as
much water as it did before. the animals
having wasted one-half.

Under the rules of the accident insur-

and laid up in consequence is entitled to
a weekly sum for support until he is
well again. But woman may take a
policy and pay up her dues 40 years or
any other length of time, and if mean
while she is hurt and disabled she can
not get cent from the insurance com
pany. Only in case of her death is any
accident money paid, and then it goes to
