Nervousness

Is only another name for impure
blood, for no person is weak and ner-
yous 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 1t
fails TO properly nourish the organs
and tissues of the body, what can you
expect but that tired feeling and ner-
vousness!
OF course Scrotula, 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 for that 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
"drown" your sorrows in the flowing
bowl. They are sure TO return.
We wish to make most impressive,
then, this trnism:
You cannot purify your blood by
DEADENING or oUIETING your nerves
with opiate, narcotic or nerve COM
pounds. II you take such articles
YOU are only THRILLING with your
troubles. There is SURE to be REAo-
TON which will leave you worse than
you were before.
Why not then, take the true course,
follow the Decline to the state OF
health, purify your blood and cure
your Nervousness by taking
HOODS

The "old weather lore, " founded on nat
ural appearances, IS the only truo weather
guide. Old sailors and shepherds, whose
lives arc continuously spent in the open
air, have always been considered the most
"woatherwiso" from their daily Observance
of the appearances Of the sky. So far as
my own experience goes, have observed
that dapplcd or "mackcrel sky-never
long dry" as tho old proverb says-is
pretty sure forerunncr Of speedy down.
fall. Light, fleccy morning clouds are
another sign OF rain. Another well known
appearance ia "Nonh's ark" which IL
when the clouds represent the shape Of
tho hulk OF ship, ana If the ends point
in the quarter OF tho prevailing wind it
Is certain sign that rain will speedily
follow.
a very pale blue evening sky and sickly
pickering stars are an invnriable sign that
we shall have rain on the morrow. With
regard TO approaching storms, have al.
ways found very glittoring, sunny day,
having a peculiar glare to be the precursor
of storm, and hazy circle round the
moon is an indication Of stormy weather.
We are told by scientific meteorologists
that no ono can tell the state of weather
which we are to hayo for more than 4S

prescribed by law as follows: The
sheriff Is allowed $3.50 per day for the
