The Recital on the Great Columbian Or
gan, by Clarence Eddy, will be one of the
most attractive features of the coming May
festival at Ann Arbor. May II and 49,
This organ, it will be remembered, was built
for the Worlds Fair and stood in Festival
Hall during the exposition. After the Fair
was over, 1t was shipped to Ann Arbor and
set up in University Hall, as the gift of the
alumni and friends TO the University. Me-
chanically it is the most perfect great organ
in existence. 1t contains 3,901 pipes, largest
of which is 32 feet long, Connection be-
tween the keys and pipes is made by elect
rical apparatus, so that the response of the
pipe to the fingers of the player is immediate
as in the case of piano. Wind is furnished
by immense bellows, to which force is
applied by force of two electric motors, one
of five, the other of two horsepower. The
organ has four manuals, and 1l6 stops.
Professor Clarence Eddy is so we'll known
that further account of him seems unnecessary.
He ranks among the great organists of the
world. The Organ Recital will be given

Nervous exhaustion in children is worrv

While the hurry and hustle of modern
life Is bringing constantly increasing strain
upon grown men and women, there GER
tainly comes to light the startling fact of a
growing tendency toward nervousness

nervous weakness and anxiously seek some
means of making the young people strong

every city and town in America.
1t Is the remedy first prescribed by that
greatest of modern educators, Prof. Edward
e Phelps, NJ. d., LII. d., of Dartmouth
College. 1t is Paine's celery compound,
which Principal Camp of New Haven and
Pres. Cook of the National Teachers Asso-

Physicians everywhere advise the use of
this greatest of blood purifiers and nerve
foods.
One of the danger signals of nervous ex-
haustion among young people is the lack of
desire for food and the capriciousness of APP
petite. When their over-pressed nervous
systems have been driven to the point of

A Dreadful Heritage.

The medical profession is constantly being
startled not so much by discoveries of medi-
cal agents as by the appearance Of disease
In some new and unexpected form. The
science of medicine in fact, must be only in
its infancy, for the physician often utterly
fails In the benefcent work which 1t is his
mission to perform. One OF the most striking
facts with which we meet in ever day life is
found in the unmistakable evidence that
children inherit, not only the looks and
characteristics of their parent, but also the
physical conditions and diseases of even
their remote ancestors
The livine announcement that the sins of
the fathers would be visited upon the the
children unto the third and fourth gener-
alton, was the statement of fact which ex-
perience and observation have abundantly
verified.
In the blood of many an innocent child
turks secret foe in the form of disease
germs which are the dreadful heritage
received from the father or mother
or their still more distant antecedents.
These germs will be sure, SOONER or
later to show themselves, and the child pos
sibly when grown to manhood or woman
hood, will be the victim of scrofulous sores,
terrible burning and itching eczema or some
similar eruption of the skin.

"A decorated Flower Seller.

A well-known character in Paris is
an old woman, whose breast is liter
ally covered with crosses and decora-
tions, and who is now peacefully en-
gagged as flower seller. Her name is
Jean Monmore, and her honors were
gained in the Crimea, at Rome,
Gravelotte, and at Orleans. On one
occasion she rendered valuable SER
vice to her country by swallowing a
military dispatch of great import
ance, and so prevented its falling
into the hands of the enemy. A
woman who has swallowed so much
for her country with dispatch should
not be allowed to sup sorrow in her

tuberculosis, for instance, in the fathers

That these diseases are transmitted in the
blood and that they Turk there is proved
beyond any question by the fact, so well
attested, that they are most readily cured
by purifying and enriching the vital fluid.
No medicine which has ever been produced
has accomplished so many actual and per-
manens cures as Hoods Sarsaparilla, and
yet Hoods Sarsaparilla is advertised, first,
last, and all the time as blood purifier. BY
reason of its peculiar combination, Hoods
Sarsaparilla posses power to act directly
upon the blood, and upon the purity and
vitality of the blood the health of all the
organs and of the entire body depends. If
disease germs, whether they exist as heri-
tage or have come from some other source,
all the organs may be in danger and those
which are weakest and most susceptible will
fail first. If the disease germ can be driven
out and the blood made pure and healthy it
will carry health to every part of the body
just as Nature intended.
In short, the reason why so many people
are afflicted with disease in its various forms
is that the blood is not pure and the reason
why Hoods Sarsaparilla cures so many of
these diseases is that it makes pure blood.
1t cures rheumatism, catarrh, scrofula and
dyspepsia by removing their cause. 1t over
comes nervousness by feeding the nerves
upon pure, health giving blood. 1t makes
people strong and healthy who before were
weak and debiitated and ready victims of
pneumonia, dyspepsia and typhoid fever,
because it destroys this secret foe which is
lurking in the blood and thus establishes

disease. Judged by its unequalled record of
cures, to say nothing of what its proprietors
claim, Hoods Sarsaparilla is certainly the
best means which has yet been discovered
for preventing and curing those diseases to
which majority of mankind are liable, by
reason of impure blood, which is, in very
many cases, heritage from former gene
rations.

better nutrition, and the veins with bette t.~

given to one of these excitable, weak-nerved
sallow perhaps scrofulous young persons,
the mother is often amazed at the rapiditv
with which 1t restores the strength, builds
up the worn nervous tissues, and replaces
the languor of depleted nervous system by
the elasticity OF youthful health.
Paine's celery compound makes people
well-not only worn out, enfeebed men
and women of mature age, but young per-
sons whose slighter powers have been over
taxed by excitement or immoderate work
without proper intervals for rest and repair,
Paine's celery compound has played
most important part in the lives of thous-
ands of young people in every section of
this country. Many whose nervous systems
had been so stimulated as to unfit them
utterly for study, it has made vigorous and
strong enough to ably bear the burden of
coming years. 1t has enabled them to grow
up vigorous men and women, capable of do
ing the part of active, strong men and
women in the world. Mr.. James b. Wetzel,
writing from his home in New Berlin,

"Allow me to speak few words in praise
of Paine's celery compound. My younger
sister, whose picture 1 send you, was SUBJ
ject to nervous attacks, and, we thought, to
heart trouble. We tried numerous medi-
cines for her ailments, but without much
avail. Last winter she had severe attack
Of nervous trouble with her eyes, and we
gave her Paine's celery compound and she
improved wonderfully upon it, and she has
been well ever since. If these few words of
unsolicited testimony can be of any benefit
