This is Meant for You.

1t has been truly said shat half the
world does not know how the other half
lives. Comparatively few of us have
perfect health. owing to the impure
condition of our blood. But we rub
along from day to day. with scarcely q
thought, unless forced TO our attention
of tine thousands all about US who are
suffering from scrofula, salt rheum and
other serious blood disorders, and
whose agonies can only be imagined :.
The marked success of Hoods Sarsapa-
rIlla for these troubles. as shown in our
advertising columns frequently. GER
tainly seems to justify urging the use of
this excellent medicine by all who know
that their blood is disordeIed. Every
claim in behalf of Hoods Sarsaparilla
is fully backed up by what the medicine
has done and is still doing, and when
its proprietors urge its merits and its
use upon all who suffer from impure
blood, in great or small degrees, they
certainly mean to include you.

A PLEA FOR GIRLS.
Why They should BE Urged to Take Part
in Outdoor Sports.

Why They Should BE Urged to Take Part
In Outdoor Sports.
So much depends upon the education
of girls that the mother who gives
serious thought to the matter will at
once recognize the Importance of care
fully supervising the daily life of her
young impressionable daughter.
Muscle and nerve will not grow
strong if indoor amusements are the
rule. Embroidery and sewing are very
well in their way, but it is absolute
cruelty to compel a growing girl to sit
in a chair for an hour or two and indus
triously apply the needle.
There is no reason why girls should
not take part in some of the outdoor
sports that give to their brothers such
robust constitutions
Health, unless built on a solid foun-
dation, is base counterfeit; there
fore, mothers should insist upon the
formation of habits that tend to
strengthen both nerve and muscle.
The reading of sensational literature
should be strictly forbidden, as it has a
tendency TO make girls morbidly senti-
mental and self-conscious, and finally
renders them incapable of approaching
high-class reading matter.
1t is bad plan to check or repress a
girl continually. Health, vitality and
exuberance Of spirit go hand in hand.
Instead of trying to subdue nature of
this description, encourage walking,
running, horseback riding, lawn ten
mis-, hand ball, swimming and general
gymnastics, and the result will be a
healthful and well-balsnced physical
deyelopment.-P Farmer.

There is great deal of uncertainty
as to whether it is or is not the thing
to fold the napkin after formal meal.
II one is staying in the house and
knows that napkin rings are in use, it
seems reflection upon that custom to
fling the napkin down in an untidy
heap. An elegantly-appointed table
deserves better treatment. even at the
end of the meal, than those disheveled
piles of drapery, too. Therefore it al
ways seems fittest TO simply half fold
the napkin, and not attract attention
to it either by one obtrusive habit or
the other.

that it was worth while going through

may be said that smart fit of illness

erly turned out invalid's chair, such a
one as l saw the other day, made ready
as surprise for one who had been suf-
fering many months, and had still a
weary time of convalescence ahead.
This chair is really all that the heart
could wish for. Its springs are of the
easiest and most approved French
make. In form it is not so remarkable,
perhaps, being large, low and deep

concealed under the framework, which
pulls out and transforms the chair with

well-cushioned right arm. A small
table, working on swivel, and easily
pushed aside when not needed, is fast
ened TO its left arm. A graceful lamp
stand in wrought iron, with pretty
bowl and gay shade, is fastened to the
left side of its well-upholstered back.

four inches long.
This bag is fastened in place by two
rows of stitching which run its full
length, catching together both folds of
the leather and the two folds of the
ribbon between which it lies. The
rows should each lie about three
eighths of an inch from the edges.
The four selvedges are then neatly
over-seamed, and when you add rib
bon loop attached by the ends TO the
back side of the top, your chatelainais
finished, though you must still sew or
pin to the center of the loop one of the
pins which come for hanging curtains
to rings-the hook part of this pin is to
pass through the belt of the wearer.
This little convenience is used to
carry pencils and fountain pen in the
stitched pockets of one side, while the
case of the other side holds tiny blank
book for memoranda, accounts and
so on.
The bag may be made of any dimen-
sions and to carry much heavier bur-
dens. 1t may be of plain and old rib
bon, or made rom gay, new ribbons
and rich with all the decoration you
have time to bestow upon it. The most

Political nrononollen.

For years Tammany Hall in New York
has been the synonym for ring rule and
monopolistic politics and perhaps ia
organization nothing so complete has
existed in this country. But we need
not lcok so far from homo to find con-
dition Of sffsirs quite as deplorable
When we consider that fer some years
past The city and county have been
under the thumb of cabal which has
manipulated them for its own aggrandizs-
ment and political advancement, IL
ought to shame every citizen who has
spark OF manliness in his n
into activity and personal devotion to
the determination Of this domination of
ring rule and political autocracy.
Tammany Hall numbers among its
leaders and dictators many names Of
eminence and note, but Democrats here
must be content to take their orders
from Bosses Neary and Dickey or be
turned down for insubordination II they
chance to criticise the methods of dis
tribution Of the spoils. Colonel Singer

are none the less applicable terms for
some of our own wire pullers, who dis
regard the expressed wish and will Of
the people, who ought to have voice in
this matter.
Self respect should be sufficient to
impel every thoughtful man to vote for

these men actually represent the best
thought of the people upon the subject
of management of affairs it must be but
an index of the lack of spirit and self
respect among us.

These Republican employees say that
they give the Bancrofts an honest days
