Nervousness

Is only another name for impure
blood, for no person is weak and ner-
vous whose blood is perfectly pure.
When the blood is full of the germs
of disease, and lacking in the red cor
puscles which give it vitality, when it
fails to properly nourish the organs
and tissues of the body, what can you
expect but that tired feeling and ner-
vouSneSS?
OF course Scrofula, Salt Rheum,
Catarrh and Rheumatism are uni
versally recognized as blood diseases,
for which Hoods Sarsaparilla, as the
best blood purifier, is everywhere
acknowled the greatest remedy.
Therefore, as Hoods Sarsaparilla
cures all blood diseases, it is the best
remedy forthat condition of the blood
which causes Nervousness.
1t is a false idea to think you are
curing your nervousness when you
are taking a preparation which only
quiets your nerves 1t is like trying to
E'drown" your sorrows in the flowing
bowl. They are sure to return.
We wish to make most impressive,
then, this truism:
You cannot purify your blood by
DEADENNG or QUIETNG your nerves
with opiate, narcotic or nerve COM
pounds. If you take such articles
you are only THRILLING with your
troubles. There is SURE to be EEAC-
TON which will leave you worse than
you were before.
Why not then, take the true course,
follow the bee-hne to the state of
health, purify your blood and cure
your Nervousness by taking

Sewing and Cooking.

The teaching first, of sewing, then OF
cooking, in the gorl's public schools
in various cities is an entirely wise in
novation, and it is not found that these
new "branches" interfere in the least
with the progress in other studies.
Indeed. it is not unlikely that by add
ing a fresh interest to school the gen
eral standing of the school will be i'm
proved. The encouragement of friend
ly rivalry in sewing and cooking must
tend to destroy the contempt for these
"arts'' which was being firmly fastened
in many feminine minds. So unusual
is it in this day to hear of young
woman priding herself upon her know
ledge of home duties that it seemed
very odd to see Il notice Of marriage
in a Pennsylvania town that the bride
was famous as housekeeper. If the
girls in our public schools become am
bilious for such a reputation they will
increase ten-fold their chances Of hap
py married lives. There is some
homes sewing and cooking might be
taught better than in schools may be
true but even where there are all
homes facilities such instruction is,
as a rule, wholly neglected. And very
many homes utterly lack accommo-
dations for this purpose. The stimu-
lus to excel. which each girl in the
school classes must feel, must be
wanting where the instruction is con-
fined to home-Domestic Monthly.

Water a Disinfectant.

1t is Il fact that appears to he not
genrally known, perhaps, because it
may not be generally credited, that
pure, fresh. cold water is one of the
most valuable Of disinfectants, mas
much as it is a powerful absorbent.
Every sick room should have large
vessel of clear water, frequently re-
newed, placed near the bed, or even be-
meath it. This not only absorbs much
Of the hurtful vapor, but by it's eva
poration it softens the atmosphere,
doing away with the dryness which is
so trying and depressing to an invalid,
or even to persons in health, for that
matter. 1t has frequently been shown
by actual experiment. that troubled
sleep and threatened insomnia are cor
rected by so simple 4 thing as the plac-
ing Of an open bowl of water near the
sufferers bed.-London Telegraph.

what there was of it was rank poison

soon discovered some very rich gold

It's death, death everywhere. Poison

an impossibility to cart the Gre to a
place where life could be sustained
for any length of time. I am satisfied
there are thousands Of great fortunes
in those hills and gulches, hut It's my
opinion they will remain there for q
long time"
Mr.. Free. ian then gave a graphic ac-
count Of the retreat toward civiliza-
ton and habitable regions. For nearly
two days and nights he and Gester
