To many people Spring and its duties
mean an aching head, tired limbs and
throbbing nerves. just as the milder
weather comes, the strength begins to
wane and "That Tired Feeling" is the
complaint of all.
The reason for this condition is
found in the deficient quality of the
blood. During the winter, owing to
various causes, the blood becomes
loaded with impurities and loses its
richness and vitality. Consequently,
as soon as the bracing effect Of cold
air is lost, these is languor and lack
OF energy. The cure will be found in
purifying and enriching tho blood.
Hoods Sarsapsrilla Is the greatest
and best spring medicine because it is
the greatest and best blood purifier.

A BIBLE AND A SHOTGUN.
He Carried Both, Although He Was
Preacher, and Had Faith.


The panther scare has spread over
the entire country. and Is especially
Intense among the colored people, who
not only believe nll the wild stories
they hear about the beast carrying
women and children away In his cruel
Jaws, but will not be persuaded that
there Is no such cruel animal lurking
round Jacksonville.
A reporter while riding In the settle
mcnt south of Panama, was hailed
through the woods by an old-tlme dar-
ky preacher. He was an interesting
type-short and bow-legged, and these
bow.legs were lncased In trousers so
long they wrinkled Mt the heel. He
had on n jim-swinger, the tails Of
which wiped the dew from the huck-
leberry bushes along the trail he was
pursuing He had on high standing
collar, to spit over which he'd have to
get on a stump. The collar was encir-
cled by clerical tie. Surmountlny
the very black face with Its wrinkles
and fringe of snowy beard was silk
hat that looked rs II 1t had been
brushed by cyclone. The hat was
several sizes too large, and had 1t not
been tilted backward the ears upon
which It rested would have been una
bic to support the burden.
As he hailed. the reporter stopped
and waited. The old man came up
out of breath. The strangest part of
his outfit was double -barreled, muz-
Lle-loading shotgun, loaded and capped.
This was under one arm. Under the
other was Bible.
"Boss," said he, wiping his brow
"you hearn anything bout wild crit

"Yesser. Ober at de church you'll
most likely find a stack O guns"
"But see you have Bible. Isn't
faith better than shotgun"
The old fellow scratched his head.
He was puzzled. "Yes, boss, filth Is
better'n shotgun, but shotgun is a
handy thing to carry 'roun' to take
care O. youssef and not gin de Lord no
