Taken in Time

Hoods Sarsaparilla has achieved
great success in warding of sickness
which, if allowed to progress, would
have undermined the whole system
and given disease strong foOthOld to
cause much suffering and even threat
en- death. Hoods Sarsaparilla has
done this andIeven more. 1t has been
taken in thousands of cases which
were thought to be incurable, and
after a fair trial has effected wonder
full cures, bringing health, strength
and joy to the afflicted. Another i'm
pOrtant point about Hoods Sarsapailla
is that its cures are permanent, be-
cause they start from the .fCuu-
dation Of purified, vitalized and en-
riched blood. But it is not what we
say but what Hoods Sarsaparilla does
that tells the story.

A PLAGUE OF SPARROWS.

English Farmers Had Their Summer
Crops Ruined by the Little Marauders.
The English sparrow has been getting
in it's fine destructive work during the
past harvest season in England at rate
which would have caused it's total ex-
termination in this country had its depTe-
dations been nearly as extensive. On
many farms in England the sparrows
have been acting as harvesters on their
own account. The harvest weather was
wet and whole fields of ripe wheat, oats
and barley remained unharyested till the
propitious weather came. These tempt
ing crops attracted enormous fiocks of
the marauding sparrows, and their havoc
almost amounted to a plague. They first
attacked the wheat fields, and after to-
tally running that crop they descended on
the barley and oats, leaving little for the
farmers to do but clean up the straw
When shot at the birds would fly away,
but would return again as soon as their
enemies-the farmers-had disappeared.
The greatest damage was done early in
the morning and late in the evening.
The farmers have decided to ask the
government to adopt some means of ex-
terminating the sparrows should another
plague of the little pests manifest itself

Experiences win Tell.

The Philadelphia Press in the course
of an article on George Du Maurier thus
alludes to his influence on the literature
and thought of his time: No ANALYSIS
and no applause can alter or amend the
serious circumstance that Du Maurier
broke with the conventions of English
fiction and threw the doors wide open to
the discussion of subjects and issues of
which ii will always remain true that
physical and spiritual health is best pre-
served in regard to them by secrecy
silence and reserve. The novel CHANGED
to appear at the psychological moment,
when generation of feminine education
and emancipation he'd brought a host of
women to a borderland of curious in
curry. and 'Trilby' altered the feminine
attitude toward conversation and sundry
as the bicycle has shortened skirts. Much
is gained. but much also is lost How
much, only experience can tell.
