Nothing Strange.

Intelligent people, who realize the i'm
portant part the blood holds in keeping
the body in normal condition, find no.
thing strange in the number of diseases
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 vegetable compounds
than to dose to excess with quinine, Gallo
mel and other drugs. By treating the
blood with Hoods Sarsaparilla, scrofula,
salt rheum and what are commonly
'humors;" dyspepsia, catarrh, rheuma-
tism neuralgia, consumption and other
troubles that originate in impurities OF
the blood or impaired CIRCULATION, can all
be cured.

BRETON EIsHERMAN,s SONG.

We were three sailors-sailors of Croix,
We were three sailors-sailors of Croix,
Homeward bound in the st. Francois.
How the winds blowl
Tis the wind of the sea torments us so.
He fell overheard in the raging sea,
Overheard and lost in the raging seal
The other two go sorrowfully.
How the winds blowi
'Tis the wind of the sea torments us so.
His cap was all that they found Of him.
His cap and pipe-that they found Of him,
Although they looked till their eyes were dim.
How the winds blowl
'Tis the wind of the sea torments us SO.
His mother went to the shrine to pray,
His mother went to the shrine to pray,
She prayed to the good st. Anne d'Auray.
How the winds blowl

"Good st. Anne. give me back my sonl
Good st. Anne, give me back my sonl''
The good st. Anne, when her prayer was
done
How the winds blowl
Wis the wind of the sea torments us so.
The good st. Anne to her thus replies,
In sorrow and pity to her replies,
AT eve thou shalt meet him in paradise"
How the winds blowl
Wis the wind of the sea torments us so.
Back to the village she went her way,
In joy and gladness she went her way.
They found her dead at the close of day.
How the winds blowl
Tis the wind of the sea torments us so.

An Interesting Relic.

An interesting relic was handed around
q group of gentlemen, and there was not
one in the party who could tell whether it
was an old coin or courtroom check. 1t
looked more like the latter, however, but
1t wasn't 1t was of brass, about the size
of half dollar and quite thin. The in
tention evidently was to make it round in
the first place, but the periphery was ir-
regular, either from age or wear. 1t was
somewhat battered, but not enough to OBJ
literate the letters G. W., which stood in
the center in relief on sunk background,
nor the semicircular device above, Long
Live Our President" After numerous
guesses were made the gentleman who had
the relic explained that it was button
which the owner claimed was taken from
a coat of George Washington and which
had been handed down in the family
through three generations. The family to
which it belongs lives in this city on the
east side, and it is needless to say that the
button is regarded by them as sacred
heirloom. Journal

Why ArtifiGiaIIy Digssted Food I'M
proves the Appetite.
Recent Progress In the Treatment
of Dyspepsia.


When YOU swallow mouthful of predgested
food, such as Paskola it is at once absorbed and
thus leaves the stomach empty. If other food be
taken with Paskola, it aids their digestion and
thus also insure5 their prompt absorption. The
moment the stomach is empty then appetite ap-
pears. Growing children are always hungry be-
cause their digestion is good,
The disappearance of appetite indicates that
you are not properly dlgesting your food. Any
body can assimilaie uourshment, ii presented in
proper form; buc many there are whom the
simplest food distresseS.
Paskola being as :. ..s, artGciaiIy digested by
ingenious processes, requires no further action
of the poor dyspeptic stomach and thus virtually
rests that tired organ. Not only is It fattehmg
and health giving food in itself, but it aids the
digestion of other foods. As consequence one
will find himself able to eat more heartily and Of
greater variety than was previously possible.
Food is the natural cure for diseases attended
BY thinness and loss of weight. Drugs and ton
les will not answer. The good results following
the use of Paskola are SO immediate that no one
who has tried it has any doubt that it is Paskola
that did it.
Paskola is pleasant to the taste and needs nc
cooking. II has solved the problems presented
to physicians who have knpwn that nourishment
was the only cure for arrangement of the diges-
tive organs NouriSh the system and 1t VIII
throw off disease far more effectually than any
device of man. One grateful user Of this new
product writes as follows
"About six weeks ago, through reading one Of
your pamphlets. began to use Paskola Tor lndl
gestion. firmly believe it has given me more
relief than anything have ever used and have
certainly used pretty mach everything that has
been recommended for the past five years

Rubber.

The best grades Of rubber como from
the banks Of the river Amazon, and we
might say the supply is unlimited, but
the climate is very unhealthy, and this
adds to the cost. The very best in turn
comes from the rivers Purus and Madeira,
tributaries of the Amazon, and these sorts
are used for surgical goods. They are very
fine grades, and while their cost Is only 9
or cents more per pound In the New
York market still, If the demand should
increase there would be greater differ
ence The Para grades are good enough
for all ordinary purposes. The term Para
comes from a large city at the mouth Of
the Amazon, in telegraphic communication
with the whole world, and reports from
there received daily govern the rubber
markets of every nation.-Hardware

Judge Versus Jury.

Says leading lawyer; IF were being
tried for criminal offense and had my
choice, should ask for jury If guilty,
but if innocent should prefer judge
alone. No Judge, think, would ever con-
Wet an innocent man, but jury often
lets guilty one off" In connection with
which view he tells the following:
'Some years ago was engaged to de-
fend man charged with arson. To my
mind it was the one absolutely clearly
proved case of crime that had had in my
legal career, but 1 did my best for my eli
emit and pulled the prosecution about as
much as possible. At last came the sum-
ming up, dead against the prisoner and
the jury, a most convicting' lot, retired.
1--WE expected every minute to see them
return with verdict of guilty, but for
four hours they remained locked up with
out deciding. At the end of that time
they filed into court to ask the judge If
he would kindly go over the crucial points
on which their verdict should rest This
he did, and the points were dead against
me, upon which the jury were about to
again retire. when jumped to my feet,
saying:
"'If your honor will permit, would
like to say that you have shown the jury
all there was against the prisoner, but
nothing for him.
"'Was there anything for him, Mr. C.S'
blandly replied the judge.
Eyes 1 returned, and facing the lis
tening ~ licked off ON my fingers impress
sively all l could think Of. Five minutes
after the jury came in with a verdict Of
mot guilty, and the judge was SO dunn
founded he could hardly find breath to dis
charge the prisoner, who gayly left the
court, and in less than "a hours was OF
his way out Of the country, not even wait
ing to try to get his insurance, which he
abandoned. New York Dispatch.

cessful remedy for nasal catarrh must be
non-irritating, easy of application, and
one that will reach the remote sores and
liberated surfaces. The history of the
efforts to treat catarrh is proof positive
that only one remedy has completely met
these conditions, and that is Ely's Cream
Balm. This safe and pleasant remedy
has mastered catarrh as nothing else has
ever done, and both physicians and pa
4ients freely concede this fact. Our
