To properly fill its office and func-
tions, it is important that the blood be
pure. When it is in such a condition,
the body is almost certain to be healthy.
A complaint at this time is catarrh in
some OF it's various forms. A slight
cold develops the disease in the head
Droppings of corruption passing into
the lungs bring on consumption. The
only way to cure this disease is to pu-
rify the blood. The most obstinate
cases of catarrh yield to the medicinal
powers of Hoods Sarsaparilla as if by
magic, simply because it reaches the
seat of the disease, and by purifying
and vitalizing the blood, removes the
cause. Not only does Hoods Sarsa-
parilla do this but it gives renewed
vigor to the whole system, making it
possible for good health to reign SUI
preme.

A Minister Roasted.

A minister in Woodland has been
abusing all who dance, in language
scarcely fit for a bagnio. In comment
ing thereon, the Woodland Democrat
says: "Sublimated idiots who have an
infirmity of their own which is incur
able are apt to delude themselves with
the idea that their neighbors are SINH
larly afflicted with a weakness OF the
flesh, and man in that state of mind
can hardly be held responsible, be-
cause he is more kinds and degrees OF
q fool than many inmates OF an asy-
lum."
Is it any wonder that many people
have such a poor opinion of ministers
in general, when innocent amusement
is blackguarded as lecherous conduct.
and when good sweethearts, wives and
mothers are classed promiscuouslv as
prostitutes by too many Of the bowling
bigots who wear the cloth?
The Marysville Appeal says that such
a man as this Minister Small should
be treated to a coat of tar and feathers.
The punishment would certainly not
be too sewers for the offense.-Sacra-
mento Bee.

COUNTY FUNDS.

A proposition 10 dispense with county
t%reasurers is being discussed in Cali
fornia and Governor Budd il said TO
favor it. II is proposed to invite the
banks to bid for the privilege OF col.
Letting and disbursing the county
funds. To protect the public the banks
would be required to give bonds, not
mere signatures on a piece Of paper,
but good interest bearing bonds, so that
If there vas a shortage a bond could
Immediately be placed on the market
and sold and the money covered into
the treasury. This would probably
answer in counties where there are
banks. but what would be the result
where there are no such institutions ?
Here in Nevada the Treasurer's Office
is not a constitutional one and could
be abolished at any time by act OF the
Legislature, but there are eight or nine
counties in the State in which there
are no banks. Possibly individuals
might bid for the privilege OF collecting
and disbursing the county funds, but
il the treasurer's Office was abolished
and no such bids were made the county
would be in a bad predicament.-Reno
Journal.

A NOu.Couductor.

They're telling this story down in
York State," said a traveller. "Raf-
ferty vas conductor on an electric car.
The superintendent caught him in the
act of knocking down fares and
warned him to stop it. Rafferty, kept
on and was finally discharged. He
brooded over his dismissal for q day or
two and then loaded up on cheap
whisky and started out to do up the
superintendent. Rafferty, found him
in the car barn and began to complain
that he had been unjustly discharged.
One word led to another and pretty
soon there was a fight. Rafferty, ended
il by drawing a revolver and shooting
the superintendent. He was arrested
for murder, tried. convicted and SEN
fenced to electrocution. They took
him to Sing Sing, sat him in the cleo
trio chair and turned on the current.
It had no effect on him."
"Why? 2" asked a listener.
Because Rafferty, was a non-con-
ductor.n

rhe Hyua.. Di woody Case.

The examination of Hynds, the
slayer Of Walter Dinwoody, son of III.
Dinwoody, the furniture dealer, was
held in Salt Lake City last Monday.
The testimony does not furnish CLASH

utilized in a modern novel. Mrs.
Hynds acknowledged her guilt. and
confessed that she alone was to blame,
she having asked the young man to
come to the house. Hynds was re-

at $4,000. His sureties were w. s.

An exchange volunteers the following
good ADVICE: Young man, there is INT
thing you cannot do. You cannot make
a success in life unless you work.
Older men than you have tried and
failed. You cannot loaf around the
street corners, smoke, tell stories,
drink and sponge on some one else
without making a failure in life. You
must learn a trade or get in some hon.
est business. If you don't you will
become a chronic loaier and there is
no place in the world for loafers. The
ripe fruit is at the top of the tree, and
YOU must climb if you get it. Some
smart man will pluck it from you. Do
something, n matter how small, or
low wages; it will be a starter. Help
yourself and others will help you.
There is no royal gate to success will,
grit and endurance are the qualities
which lead to it.

The proprietor OF a factory on the
South Side has a son who has had
about everything there was going-a
college education with a degree, all the
fun to be had on a liberal allowance
and a European tour. When hegot back
he told his father he wanted to settle
down and get "& Son" on the sign
board. The next morning the propri.
etor brought him TO the foreman, say
ing, "Got anything for this young man

"Sorting scrap iron-$1 a day"
"All right; put him at that. / want

II you require proof that we do, sup
pose that we have for breakfast q nice
fresh roll which eats like a piece Of
cake, will we not eat more heartily
than il we had to psrtake Of bread two
or three days old7
Can it be affirmed that il is abso-
lutely necessary to have several cour-
ses for dinner? After the second course
we only eat for the sake Of eating.
There is no doubt we eat more than
enough to satisfy our hunger.
II we compare the quantity Of food
which satisfies a peasant and that
which is considered necessary for a
rich man, we shall be inclined TO think
that they belong to a different species.
A fisherman will be contented with
a piece OF bread and cheese, but the
tourist who goes with him takes a tre-
mendous hamper crammed full. IL is
not because physiological necessity lie
more exacting in the n man than in
the other, but because the gentleman
is accustomed to eat, not according to
the dictates Of hunger, but until all the
courses are exhausted-and in many
cases until it is materially impossible
to eat more.
The Arab who accompanies the
sportsman on an excursion in the des-
ert finds a piece OF hard bread and q
few dates sufficient for bis wants; the
sportsman is afraid of dying Of hunger
il he does not take with him several
baskets Of provisions, boxes Of pre-
served meat and the like.-London

In Praise or Horsenesh.

A recent issue Of the California Turf
has the following interesting paragraph;
In the opinion of many good judges
horsefiesh is the most nourishing Of
all meats, and its taste is hardly to be
distinguished from beef. The flesh OF
a horse fed on oats has a smell similar
to gooselesh. The fat is preferable to
lard. Above all. it should be remem
bered that no flesh is 70 healthy as
that OF the horse. Trichinosis and sim
liar diseases are unknown in horses.
tuberculosis, very common in cattle,
is very rare in horses.

ARE WOMEN ELIGIBLE.
That f. h Question nc Present
AgtfstiBg Inc Minds OF the People
af EureEa

The monotony which has prevailed
in Eureka for some time was broken
during the past week. The all-absorb-
ing topic has been discussions pro and
con as to the eligibility Of women as
candidates for the office of School
Trustees. The SENTINEL, not being a
lawyer, cannot give a definite opinion
Of the question, but for the e~diication
Of it's readers will quote what the Con-
~stitution Of Nevada says regarding it.
II is strange, indeed, how few people
in Eureka were aware Of there being
such a clause in the organic law Of the
State. This ignorance extended even
to some OF our local legal luminaries.
Following, however, is what the Con-
stitution says upon the subject:
Resolved by the Assembly and the
Senate conformity, That section three,
Article XIV, Of the Constitution OF the
State OF Nevada be amended 80 as to
read as follows:
Section 3. No person shall be eligi-
BILE to any Office who is not a qualified
elector under this Constitution. No
person who, while a citizen Of this
State, has, since the adoption Of this
Constitution, fought a duel with dead
ly weapon, sent or accepted a chal-
lenge to fight q duel with a deadly
weapon, either within or beyond the
boundaries Of this State, or who has
acted as second, or knowingly conveyed
q challenge, or aided or assisted in any
manner in fighting a duel, shall be al
lowed TO hold any office OF honor, profit
or trust, or enjoy the right Of suffrage
under this Constitution. The Legisla.
ture shall provide by law for giving
force and effect to the foregoing pro-
visions Of this section; provided, that
females v the age OF 81 years, who
have resided in this State one year,
and in the county or district six months
next preceding any election to fill
either Of said offices. shall be eligible
to the offices OF Superintendent Of Pub
lie Schools and School Trustee.

young men who make fun Of them and

things, but we hope our girls may
never be so foolish. Schoolgirl fiirta-

The reasonable desire for some one to
love you is q great need TO every true
woman's heart. But there is time for
everything. Don't let the bloom and
freshness Of your heart be brushed of
by silly flirtations. Render yourself
intelligent. And, above all. tell your
mother everything. Never be ashamed
TO tell her, your best friend, all you

son before mother, that which is most
important, that she should know. Tell
mother. Ask her and never do what
you cannot tell her about.-Ex.
