In combination, proportion and
process Hoods Sarsaparilla is peculiar
TO itself, and unequalled in true merit.
No other medicine ever possessed so
much curative power, or reached such
enormous sales, or made such won-
derful cures, as Hoods Sarsaparilla.
1t is undoubtedly the best medicine
ever made to purify, yitalize and en-
rich the blood.
That is the secret of its success.

Oscar Wilde Said to Be a
Total Wreck.

the Verge of Revolution.

LONDON, June 20.-The Ascot races and
the oppressive weather emptied the Me-
tropolis Of the majority of its fashionable
population during the week. The mercury
bnbbled up TO the vicinity of so degrees
during the greater part OF the time, a very
exceptional showing for this city, and
there were many sunstrokes and prostra-
tions from the heat reported. AS might
be expected, this excessively warm
weather revolutionized dress. Ladies
were to be seen riding on Rotten Row in
white habits, while the men wore W white
fianneis and straw hats on Bond street
during the afternoons, with their frock
coats, several OF the best dressed wearing
gray Tyrolese hats, with a broad black
band, and the clerks of the great city
houses received formal permission to wear
straw hats.
The Ascot was an unusual success as
fashionable function, in spite of the re-
strictions imposed by the Queen out of
respect to the memory OF the late Prince
Henry of Battenberg. The weather per-
mitted the brightest and lightest cos
tunes and the Princess OF Wales. with
her daughters and a large party were on
the royal stand, and the Duke of SAKE.
Coburg and Gotha, who has been staying
at Cliveden with Mr.. William Waldorf
Astor, and numerous other mem bers OF
the royal family were present.; but, not
one OF the royal party went into the So
called royal enclosure.
After the races daily there were dis
graceful scenes at the departure Of the
tTaine for London. Stylishly dressed
people fought for places like savages, and
there were many lights between men.

Fleming have gone to Ireland on Loli.

tory manner in which the Pacific cable

ference begins.

How a New York Company
Changed Transfer System.
Thomas Lake Harris Is Still In
Hiding in the Metropolis.

The City Council committee which is
wrestling with the transfer ticket ques-
-tton uoesn't appear to know where 1t is
at. II it would leave the settlement OF
the matter to the railroad company the
people would without doubt soon have a
transfer system that would be satisfac-
tory to them. But 1t isn't for the satis-
faction OF the people that some of the
committeeman seem to be working. On
the contrary the unprejudiced observer
would come to the conclusion that they
are bent on defeating. the very object for
which they pretend TO be working. How
ever. this matter will undoubtedly right
itself In time, and that, too, without as
sfstance from those who are trying to
warm over the transfer matter for use in
the municipal election next November.
In this connection il is worth while to
note what has been done by one street car
line in New York. Up to March last the
Third avenue cable line had fifty-two
agencies at as many different points along
its route. AT that time il decided to
abolish those agencies and make & o con-
ductors on the cars the distributors of

THE BIGGEST FOOL AT LARGE
Is the individual who persistently neglects
his health, and the means of preserving

not constitutional idiots do this They
are genuine objects of compassion as well
as censure. A failure of appetite loss of
sleep and flesh, Impaired digestion an
uncertain state of the bowels and symp-
toms of biiousness are so many warnings
of the approach of disease To disregard
them is abject folly, which offended ma
