We have the word of Alfred Tenny-
son for it that in the spring the young
mans fancies lightly turn to thoughts
of love. 1t is singular that the great
laureate omitted to mention the fact
that it is in the spring that IA consider
able portion of the human race turn to
taking Hoods Sarsaparilla. Probably
nothing but the difficulty of finding a
good rhyme for that invaluable remedy
deferred him. Certain it is that the
old-tlme domestic remedies are gener-
ally discarded in favor Of the standard
blood purifier, Hoods Sarsaparilla,
which has attained the greatest popu-
la-ity all over the country as the favor
ite Spring Medicine. 1t purlies the

and digestive strength.

THE first Brazilian revolution which
drove good old Dom Pedro from the
threne was, it has been fully demon
strated, huge mistake from Brazil
ian standpoint. But that was accom-
plished and instead of the imperial
government under that enlightened
and progressive gentleman they have
set up republic-a government more
in touch with the genius of the United
States than even Dom Pedro's was.
Da Gama's revolution is simply to re
store Dom Pedro's family to the reign
ing function. The Countess De Ue
may be great woman, but we cannot
under the Monroe doctrine look with
indifference upon the efforts made by
her gallant admiral to SO seat her. If
the worst comes to the worst the United
States must indicate her dissent in
some efficient and noteworthy wav.
We do not want any more imperialism
anywhere on this western continent
The defacto government under P iexoto
should receive the strongest kind of
moral support from our government.

Deafness Cannon be Cured

by local applications, as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear.
There is Only one way to cure Deaf
ness, and that is by constitutional
remedies. Deafness is caused by an
infamed condition OF the mucous lin
ing of the Eustachian Tube. When this
tube gets infamed you have a rumbl
ing sound or imperfect hearing, and
when it is entirely closed Deafness is
the result, and unless the infamma-
ton can be taken out and this tube re-
Stored to its normal condition, hearing
will be destroyed forever; nine cases
out of ten are caused by catarrh, which
is nothing but an infamed condition of
the mucous surfaces.

between European nations in making
