Beware of OIntments,

Beware Of ointments for .catarrh that
contain mercury, as mercury will surely
destroy the sense of smell, and completely
derange the whole system when entering

prescriptions from reputable physicians,
as the damage they will do is ten fold to
the good you car possibly derive from
them. Halls Catarrh Cure, manufactured
by +. J. Cheney Il Co., Toledo, Ohio, con-
tains no mercury, and is taken internally,
acting directly upon the blood and

This is Meant for You

1t has been truly said that halt the
world does not know how the other half
lives. Comparatively few of us have
perfect health, owing to the impure con-
dition of our blood. But we rub along
from day to day, with scarcely a thought,
unless forced to our. attention., of the
thousands all about us who are suffering
from s%crofula, salt rheum, md other
serious blood disorders, and whose
agonies can only be imagined. The
marked success of Hoods ~Sarsaparilla for
these troubles, as shown in our advei-
Using columns frequently, certainly
seems to justify urging the use OF this
excellent medicine by all who know that
their blood is disordered. Every claim in
behalf OF Hoods Sarsaparilla is fully
backed up by what the medicine has
done and is still doing, and when its pro-
p~rietors urge its merits and its use upon
all who suffer from impure blood, in
great or small de grees, they certainly
mean to include you.

THE wILL-MAKINd POWER.

A proposition will come before the New
York constitutional convention to take
from the courts of that State the power to
enforce Will. One argument in support
of the bill is that the courts are crowded
with will cases; another that the wills
bring to light family skeletons that would
otherwise remain unreyealed. and third
that the law distributes a dead mans
estate more wisely in most cases than any
will he can have made. If the power TO
enforce wills should be taken from the
courts. laws governing the distribution of
estates would be made TO cover all legi-
innate allegations. There is still another
objection to the wiIl-making power which
was not mentioned by the gentleman who
declared his purpose TO introduce the pro-
hibitlop, and that is the power 1t gives a
man to concentrate "a large part of his
estate in the hands of single member Of
his family" This dispos ition has been
shown by more than one millionaire in
New York City. 1t is In direct Conflict
with the general law which provides for
the equal distribution of a decedeRt's
estate. Ii accomplishes very nearly what
the law of promogeniture aecOmplisbes in
England and other European countries.
Ii a law Is best adaped to the general
good of country, it is not right that an
individual should be allowed the DO wer to
overthrow it, A case is now foresbadowed
in our local courts which will bring
the will-making power under public ex-
animation. A husband VINO had In herite d
q large fortune from mis- father and had
married a young woman of equal wealth
and position in society made a will in
which the wife Is dsinberited. Having
committed this act of injustice the hus-
band died. By the will the widow is not
only deprived Of property which she had
q right to expect, but exposed TO the In
ference that the husband must have had
some reason to deprive her of widow S
share in his estate. In marriage contracts
between opulent parties the separate es-
tale of the wife IS often settled upon any
children that may be born to the Two. The
property of the husband is, however.
made the property of both parties to the
contract. This distinction is based upon
the presumed ability of the husband 10
provide for the family while he lives.
What he dies possessed of is properly de-
voted by law TO the maintenance of wild ow
and children. Ii rich man can evade
that requirement of law poor one may.
The fact that in the case under considera-
tion the wife is possessed of considerable
property does not alter the law, nor does
it relieve society of the obligations TO its
defenseless members from the caprices OF
prejudices of their Immediate protectors.
