To many people Spring and its duties
mean an aching head, tired limbs, and
nerves. Just a the milder
weather comes, the strength begins ID
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, there
Is languor and lack of energy. The
cure will be found in purifying and
.nriching the blood.
Hoods Sarsaparilla is the greatest
and best spring medicine because it is
the greatest and best blood purifier.
It overcomes that tired feeling because

Besieaed by Walrus.

A bad quarter of an hour was that
Jpent by the Peary crew, one day,
among the walrus In the Arctic re-.
Eions They were on q walrus-h hunt
Tor the purpose of obtaining ivory.
The walrus were to be seen In every

boat for . cake Of ice with about 1T.

I.ure.

given to stop. MIR. Peary then took
his camera. and he became so alb
sOrbed In getting his photograph just
fright that he forgot to give the order
to stop until the boat ran on the CAKE
|Df ice at least four feet, throwing hof
now straight up Into the air.
The walrus, jumping into the
water from under her careened the
boat to port until she shipped water.
then, with a jerk, she was rlghted,
aud we we're skimming over the water
thl Ough the new ice, towed BIZ the
|harpooned valrus.
This performance lasted at leasA
twenty minutes, while the boys kept
|up a constant voley at the walrus
that bes eyed us on every side to
Rvenge their wounded companions.
There wore at least two hundred and
|ffty round US at one time and it
seemed impossible to keep them from
attacking US; but by steady firing We
managed to hold them at our oars
'ength.
This kept me busy reloadIng the

cannot describe my feelings when
these monsters surrounded US their
ltusks almost touching the boat while
the bullets were whistling about my
vars, In every direction
Whenever a volley of shots greeted
them, the whole bunch jumped into
the air, and then plunged under
water. II they should happen to
come up under the boat we should
probably be the ones to take the
plunge.
When We dnallY got out uf the tur
