WHY YOU HAVE SCROFULA.

hereditary. 1t affects every gland in the

you are at any time liable to have running
ulcers over different portions of your body
and discharging very offensive matter.
You often have diseases of the eye, ear and
nose, all due to poisoning of the blood by
scrofula. If your system is improperly
nourished and you have scrofulous faint in
your blood, scrofula will be more virulent.

TT IS STATED THAT UP CLOSE BY
/ Niagara Falls new variety Of that
fragrant aud handsome flower, thu sweet pea,
has been originated, or more likely hybri-
died. If what is being claimed for it is
true it will be indeed an accession to the
flora of to-day. 1t is said to have double
flowers, that is, they have two or three
standards or upright parts; these standards
are of clear rose color, while the other
parts are white. The "lannrs are either
back to back or overlapping, thus adding to
the general novelty of the appearance, and,
in addition to all this, the fragrance Of the
flowers is said to be swetter than the sweet
est. Granting all this to be true, the ap.
pearance of the double sweet pea will be
looked on as quite an eventby the lovers and
devotees of Horticulture. 4 prize of $500 has
been offered by an enterpri,ing firm Of florists
to the individual who dan guess which name
will be chosen out of six for the new plant,
| but there is q joker, Of course, in the offer.
In order to guess or vote for the name you
must purchase at least 81 worth Of flower
or vegetable seeds from the people who are
going to give away the money to the lucky
guesser.
California has never yet produced double
sweet pea, but in its vegetable products it is
head and shoulders sbove any other State in
the Union. Were il to rest its claim to this
premier position abne. on the TACT that it
produces all the Ingredients that constitute
that great and grand home remedy, joys

claim to it, for th,t medicine is without a
peer in the wide, wide world. And why is
It without an equal? Simply because no
remedy has done the tithe If what joys

fering sick in ths United Ststes. And the
