Hale and Hearty.

Is the condition in which every human
being was undoubtedly intended to be,
and whenever this is not the case there
must be something wrong. Probably
in ma ority of cases the trouble is in
the b ood, which has become impov-
erished or impure by reason of hered-
itary scrOfula taints or from some 9TH
er cause. In case there is sco;ula in
the blood, there will frequently be
eruptions OF the skin, though some
times the disease assumes different
form. In fact, very large proportion
of diseases are caused by this inherited
taint. That the cause is in the blood
is proved by the fact that scrofula. salt
rheum, rheumatism, catarrh, and 9TH
er like diseases are most readily cured
by purifying the blood. No medicine
has such rrcord of cures as Hoo1's
Sarsaparilla, and yet Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla is always advertised as a blood
purifier. The way to keep hale and
hearty is to keep the blood pure, and
if it is not in condition of purity and
vitality there is no better remedy that
can be used than this same great
blood purifier and strength builder,
Hoods Sarsaparilla.

Report of the Live Stock Commission

Report of the Live Stock Com ion
The annual report of the State Live
Stock Commission, consisting of Thomas
p. Shields, NJ. J. Miller, and ID. N. Kins-
man, has been filed with the Governor. 1t
shows there has been no epidemics during
the past year among cattle, though a few
cases of Texas fever were reported, which
are attributed to violation of the rules
of the commission and the United States
Government.
The report says that cholera has pre-
vailed to large extent among swine, but
that its prevalence could be prevented
and thousands Of dollars worth of hogs
saved each year ii the farmers would SIM
ply report the matter 10 the commission,
which is able TO cope with the disease.
Several cases Of hydrOphObia among
live stock are rel Orted during the year.
Accompanying the report is paper on
animal tuberculosis, which is said to he
on the increase to an alarming extent, and
then follows some recommendations that

Prosperity Comes Not.

That wave of prosperity which was
10 follow Immediately on McKinley's
election not having materialized. the
Republican prophets are hard at work
trying to invent explanations. Corne-
lius n. Bliss, the treasurer of the presi-
Dental syndicate, says it is just as he
expected, which, put in plain English,
means that the whole cry of better
times was humbug. and that he was
not deceived by it. Bliss, in his charac-
ter of a dry goods merchant, confesses
also that he does not expect better
prices for what he has to sell. The
only thing he looks for is more busi-
ness, and this he does not anticipate
for months to come. In fact, speaking
as seller of material for clothing, and
not as high and mighty Republican
politician, he is distinctly sad over the
outlook.
One of the new reasons given for the
failure Of the Republican wave Of pros
perity to make its appearance is that
'the talk Of war with Spain has made
people timid agaip as to the future"

Hanna's Currency Scheme.

Mr.. Mark Hanna is credited with a
picturesque financial scheme, upon
which, if he really mean to propose it
which is doubtful. there will be such 6
large and enthusiastic veto from every
important element in the country tha'
Mr. Hanna will feel, in the picturesque
language of his friend, Tammany Tim,
like five cents worth of lard in a paper
bag"
The proposition attributed to Mr.. Nc
Kinley's guardian is that bonds should
be issued to retire all the greenbacks
AS the greenbacks are Cancelled, silver
bullion is to be bought for an equal
amount of treasury notes like the Sher-
man notes. and these notes, in turn, are
to be retired in favor of silver certifi.
Gates as rapidly as may be.
This scheme is ingeniously planned tt
secure the opposition of as many differ
ent classes Of people as possible. Those
who want more silver do not wan;
bonds, those who want bonds and the
retirement of the greenbacks do moi
want more silver, and the majority OF
the Republican party probably do moi
went either bonds or silver, nor do they
care to have the greenbacks retired.
1t is evident that Mr.. Hanna, assum
ing him to be the author of this propo
sition, is finding the water too cold. He
plunged into the gold standard, not be
cause he wanted to, but because Plat
and the Eastern bankers pushed hin
in, and his teeth are chattering yet
He is trying to find some way to avoit
the logical consequences Of his action.
1t will not work, and Mr.. Hanna viii
find his best policy not to try to make
it work. The Republican party is com
mitted to the gold standard, and the
safest thing it can do is to carry out
its policy Systematically. Two radical
~ different economic theories cannot
be compromised, and the attempt to
compromise them has brought on all
our financial troubles Of the past TWEEN
ty years. Mr.. Hanna and his friends
won the election on the theory thai
they had a system good enough to stand
by. Are they going to try to crawl oui
of it already ?-San Francisco Exam

Gladness Comes

With a better understanding Of the
Wv transient nature of the many phys
ical ills, which vanish before proper ef-
forts-gentle efforts-pleasant efforts
rightly directed. There is comfort IN
the knowledge, that so many forms OF
sickness are not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constipated condi-
ton of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects are due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness without debilitating the
organs on which it acts. 1t is therefore
ali important, in order to get its bene-
fetal effects, to note when You pur-
chase, that you have the genuine arti-
Gle, which is manufactured by the Cali
fornia Fig Syrup Co. only and sold by
allreputable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, laxatives or
other remedies are then not needed. II
afflicted with any actual disease, one
may be commended to the most sk1llful
physicians, but if in need of laxative,
one should have the best, and with the
well-informed everywhere, Syrup OF
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.
