Rich Red Blood

In the body of an adult person there are
about 1s pounds of blood.
The blood has as its most important eie-
ments, small round corpuscles, red and
white, in proportion of about 300 Fed to III
white ones.
If the number of red corpuscIes becomes
diminished and the white ones increased
the blood is impure, thin, lacking in the
nutrition necessary to sustain the health
and nerve strength of the body.
Then That Tired Feeling, Nervousness,
Scrofula, Salt Rheum, or others Of the long
train of ills, according to the temperament
and disposition, attack the victim.
The only permanent remedy IS found In
a reliable blood medicine like Hoods Sar-
saparilla, which acts upon the red cor
puscles, enriching them and increasing
their number. 1t thus restores the vital
fluid to healthy condition, expels all i'm
purity, cures Nervousness, That Tired Feel
ing, Scrofula and all other diseases arising
from or promoted by low state of the blood.
That these statements are true we prove
not by our own statements, but by what
thou sands of perfectly reliable people say
about Hoods Sarsaparilla. Read the testi-
monial in the next column from beloved
clergyman. Then take

An Odd Place For q Nest.

Some swallows or martins at Lake Grove
have found novel place in which to build
their nests and bring forth their young. A
few rods out into the lake from the steam
boat wharf at the grove is sunken wharf
on which there is barrel nailed to post.
which serves as buoy for the small ship
ping of the lake when making or clearing
the harbor. In the side of this barrel, which
is headed as both ends, is a bunghole about
Q inches across, and this serves the birds as
an entrance There they have built their
nests and Matched their eggs. We took a
boat Monday and pulling out to the sunken
wharf stood up and looked into the barrel
There were several nests in the bottom, and
some of the eggs had Matched and some had

found this novel place for nest building in
previous summers, for the barrel has been
there many years. When the mother birds
teach their young to fly, they must needs
take them ashore. Attempts out around
the barrel might be attended with sad re

FREDERICK HOLBROOK. friend and adviser
of Lincoln during the dark days OF the
war, and the president considered him one
of his most valuable aids among the war
governors of the north. Like Lincoln,
Frederick Holbrook is man OF the plain
people. He was born in Warehouse Point,
Conn, Feb. s. 1918, and was the son OF
John Holbrook and Sarah knowlton Hol-
brook, who were among the earliest SET
tiers of Brattleboro.
Young Holbrook's early life was passed
upon his fathers farm, and although his
educational advantages were meager ne
read and studieda great deal at home. he
became contributor to the leading agrl-
cultural papers of the day, and his con-
slant writing gave him clear and force
full style that showed to advantage later
in his state papers and letters. 1t Is said
that Secretary Stanton once remarked
that Governor Holbrook's letters were
among the best of the day, and that after
reading one of them he always knew ex-
actly what the governor meant.
Holbrook S early training led him to be
one of the originators of the Vermont
State Agricultural society and made him
we'll known to an immense number OF
Vermonters even before he sought guber-
material honors. For quarter of CEN
fury he has been president of the Vermont
Savings bank, and for AZ years he has been
a trustee of the Vermont State asylum.
When he became governor in October,
1861, he recommended that one-half the
war expenses be paid by direct taxation
and that the remainder be funded on long
term bonds. The legislature followed his
advice and Vermont was the first state
it is said, to complete the payment of her
war debt. After the battle of Antietam
Governor Holbrook wrote to President
Lincoln suggesting that he ask the north
for 500, 900 more men, and shortly there
after the president issued his call for $780,
900. Governor Holbrook was very active
in raising troops, and Vermont sent four
regiments under the nine months call.
She also sent the first regiment under the
three years call, and all her soldiers were

Clafrvoyance In Boston.

Clairyoyance is the midsummer mad
ness in Boston. This view Is not ad-
mitted. A Boston woman says that In
hot weather the next thing to taking on
the flesh and sitting in ones bones Is to
have dealings with the occult. what
ever phase may be put upon it, in large
circle of people in Boston whose dolngs
are regarded as of consequence, each
has his or her clairvoyant. and women
exchange and recommend mediums as
they do books or patterns. 1t is needless
to say that although this new diversion
is not discussed publicly the very high
est view is taken of it. Under the shadow
of Harvard and Professor James it has
scientific aspect.
woman who would describe herself
as earnest says that in her opinion the
medium gets into communication with
her higher self-not the medium who
most likely lives up back stairs in d.
sheyeled Mother Hubbard and does not
necessarily have higher self. This
communion with the visitors subcon-
seriousness transcends all mind reading
These mediums are consulted in the
grayest matters of business and affairs.
In one case a rich man had died, and his
will could not be found. A clairvoyant
was consulted, who said he had gone
into his grave with the will in his coat
tail pocket. The body was exhumed,
and sure enough the man had his will
with him.-New York Evening Sun.

Giving Each One a Share of the Fire.

Some guests of Mr. Richard Lowell Edge
worth were sitting with him one morning
in bright and pleasant room. 1t was
rather an odd room in it's shape, being per-
fectly circular. They were all busily en-
gagged in talking and laughing at Mr..
Edgeworth's amusing anecdotes, when one
of the ladies suddenly noticed that she was
now at quite distance from the open fire
place, although she had been sitting near it
when the conversation began.
All the other persons present had also
changed their positions in regard to it,
some who had been far off being now quite
near and the reverse. She questioned Mr..
Edgeworth eagerly, and he explained that
this room was one of his Inventions The
fireplace was stationary, but the floor of
the room moved upon pivots, SO slowly, it
is true, that the motion was quite unno-
ticeable, but moving all the while and
bringing each part of the room in turn near
the fire.
You see," he said, that l am giving
each of my guests fair and equal share OF
the heat. "-Philadelph Times

birthplace of Elizabeth Barrett Browning,
is about to erect novel memorial in hon.
or of the author of Aurora Leigh" It
will not be STORED urn or animated

practical and useful town hall and clock

by the numerous residents of Ledbury
who not only admire the poet, but are not
averse to adding handsome public build
ing to the architectural treasures of the
town. Some 50, 900 more are needed to
complete the work, and this sum, it is ex-
pected, will be contributed by the poets
admirers regardless of geographical loca-
ton and the town hall project.

AN ECCENTRIC PAINTER.
Turner's Studio and Methods q Curiosity
to Visitors.

Broderip and Sir Richard Owen, says
the latter in his "Reminiscences,
walked together to Turner's residence,
which was slightly dingy in outward
appearance. When they arrived at the
door, they waited some time before their
ring at the bell was answered. At last
an elderly person opened the door few
inches and asked them suspiciously what
they wanted. They replied that they
wished to see Mr.. Turner. The door
was Immediately shut in their faces,
but after time the person came back
to say that they might enter. When
they got into the hall, she showed them
into room and forthwith shut the door
upon them. They then discovered, with
some dismay, that this apartment was
in total darkness, with the blinds down
and the shutters up. After prolonged
interval they were told they might go
up stairs Upon arriving at the topmost
story they perceived Turner standing
before several easels and taking his
colors from circular table which he
swung around to get at the paints he
required. He was painting several pic
lures at once, passing on from one to
the other and applying to each in its
turn the particular color he was using
till it was exhausted.
After showing them all that there was
to be seen Turner vouchsafed the ex-
PLANTATION of the treatment which they
experienced upon entering the house
He said that the bright light outside
would have spoiled their eyes for prop
erly approaching the pictures, and that
to see them to advantage an interval OF
darkness was necessary. At this stage
of the interview Broderip had to leave
for some engagement, and then an event
took place which Owen declares that
none of his artist friends would ever be-
lieve Turner offered him a glass of
wine. 1t was while they were coming
down stairs that he first discovered the
symptoms Of an inward struggle going
on in Turner's bosom. When they were
passing little cupboard on the landing,
this struggle reached climax. Finally
Turner said, "Will you-will you have
a glass of wine?" This offer having been
accepted, after good deal of cropping
in the cupboard decanter was pro-
duced, of which the original stopper
had been replaced by the cork. with the
remains of some sherry at the bottom.
This Owen duly consumed and shortly
afterward took his leave, with many ex-
pressions of the pleasure this visit had
afforded him and disturbing convic-
ton that the sherry might Turk indefi-
nitely in his system

OFT REPEATED STORY OF TRUE
PHILANTHROPY.

Charles IL. Hackley, Pioneer Lumber
man of Western Michigan, Relates
His Experience-He Has Done Much
for That Country.
From Grand Rapids, Mich, Evening Press.
The most beautiful spot in all this city
is inseparably associated with the name
of Hackley. Charles II. Hackley has
been in the lumber business here con-
tinuously since 1856 and in that time
has amassed a fortune which gives him
rating among the wealthy men of the
nation. But with wealth there did not
come that Tightening of the purse strings
which is generally marked character
istic of wealthy men.
1t is no wonder then that the name OF
Charles II. Hackley is known at home
and abroad. His munifcence to Muske-
gon alone represents an outlay OF nearly
half million. For the past twenty
years he has been a constant sufferer
from neuralgia and rheumatism, also
numbness of the lower limbs, SO much
so that it has seriously interfered with
his pleasure i'll life. For some time past
his friends have noticed that he has
seemed to grow young again and to have
recovered the health which he had in
youth.
To a reporter for the Press Mr.. Hack

An Eager and q Nipping Wind,

A continuous down pour of rain, inclem-
ent weather, generally in winter and
spring, are unfavorable to all classes of in
valids. But warmth and activity infused
into the circulation counteracts these in
tluences and interpose defense against
them. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, most
thorough and effective of stomachics and
tonics, not only enriches the blood, but
accelerates it's circulation. For chill, or
premonltory symptoms of rheumatism
and kidney complaint, particularly preva-
lent at the seasons, it is the best possibl
remedy. It is also invaluable for dyspep-
STA, liver complaint, constipation and ner-
vOusness. Never set out on a winter or
spring journey without it. Elderly per-
sons and the delicate and convalescent are
greatly aided by it.

A Speculation on Death.

When the typhoid fever epidemic was
at it's height, when cases were being re-
ported daily and everybody expected that
there would be many deaths from the
disease, one local flower firm decided to
make speculation on death. It was
figured out that there would be an I'M
usual number of deaths and that this
would cause demand for an unusual
number of floral pieces. In the manu-
facture of floral pieces moss is an abso-
lutte necessity, and the peculiar kind that
is used comes from Oregon and Wash
ington. The firm in question thought to
make speculation by ordering guam
tity of this moss early and running a
corner in it. The moss has arrived and
has been placed in storage. But out of
all the cases Of typhoid fever the deaths
have numbered less than IS, and there
is one firm that has moss enough on
hand for several years.-San Francisco

An Amusement of Youth.

Every middle aged man of sound
memory who was brought up in town."
said Mr.. Greatbar, twill recall the fact
that when he was boy he found great
delight in rafting stick along the pick
ct fences. This amusement of child
hood, like many others of that period of
life, appears to have been transmitted
material change. The strings of spools
and the soldier hats and so on of the
children of today are substantially like
those of their forefathers. But it might
seem to some that this succession is in
danger of being broken. In many SUBJ
urban towns and villages there is now
no picket fence. The modern spirit says
lawns, and so there are many places
where the houses are as if in parks, and
where the younger children might not
know picket fence if they should see
one. / have two children, for instance,
who 1 am quite sure have never enjoyed
the felicity of rafting hard stick
against the resounding pickets.
1T might indeed seem under such cir
cumstances that this is one Of the enjoy
ments of childhood which in some fami-
lies might be lost altogether; that one
could scarcely expect the children of
these children who have never ratified
pickets to think of it themselves, but ]
cannot believe this. I believe, rather,
that if in their youth the children of
these children should come upon a town
where picket fences still remained they
would pick up the handiest stick and GO
quite naturally and very gleefully rat
ting it along the pickets, for cannot
believe that habit grounded for centu-
ries in the human race can be utterly
lost by its lapse in single generation.
