At this season. more emphatcally than at any other,
we should build for the future.
When Nature gives vitality to field and wood, there
should be the harmony Of renewed life and energy in
physical systems.
But, on the contrary, we find ourselves weak, dull,
tired. This is because in the winter we have been
houssdup in poorly ventilated Offices, homes and Shops
our blood has become thin and impure and unequal
the demand of the body for more e moro vigor,
energy, more strength.
Nature imperatively cries for helpi
Where is it to be found?
Logically enough, in good Spring Medicine, like
Hoods Sarsaparilla, the great blood purifier.
This preparation has proven in many years Of test
that it supplies the demand as nothing else can.

A Would-Be Thief.

A Would-Be Thief.
While new wall was being placed
nnder the north side Of the Thurston
block, Mann & Aliens store offered easy
access to any one disposed to enter the
cellar by crawling through the large
holes left by the masons while replacing
the old stonework with the new.
To prevent a thief's taking advantage
OF the state OF affairs, the builders OF the
new blocks hired VIII Ryder TO act a =
night Waterman at Mann q Aliens, and
he accordingly remained In the store
every night until the wall was finished.
On Wednesday night OF last week, ne
was awakened about IL o'clock by
slight noise in the cellar, and taking .
light. went down to investigate. but
no intruder was discovered. Going back
upstairs, he waited until the noise was
repeated and then went down without
light, arriving just in time to see light
footed gentleman tripping away IN
lively fashion.
The cellar OF the new blocks is some
two feet lower than that OF the Thurston
block, and as the old wall was weak in
places, it was thought best to replace II
rather than bank up the two feet OF dirt
with a separate wall. The new stone
work between the cellars, put in by Mr
VIM. Tyler, is very creditable piece OF
masonry.

When the little dog Jap, in honest fight,
From the Chinese dog took a bone,
Then the other big dogs all roundabout
Couldn't leave little Jap alone.
Altogether they came, the hungry hounds
From Germany, Russia and France,
And they licked their chops and they eyed that
bone
With very covetous glance.
BY dental display exceeding fine
And protesting growls then they stole
The disputed bone before little Jap
Could hide it away in a hole
