ALL THE PEOPLE

Should keep themselves healthy and
especial care should be given to this
matter at this time Health depends
upon pure, rich blood, for when the
blood is impure and impoverished
diseases of various kinds are almost
certain to result. The one true blood
purifier is Hoods Sarsaparilla. By
its power to purify and vitalize the
blood it has proved itself to be the
safeguard Of health, and the record OF
remarkable cures effected proves that
it has wonderful power over disease.
1t actually and permanently cures
when all other preparations fail to do
any good whatever.

FRED. FUNSTON GONE TO CUBA.

Our Daring Young Explorer Has Under
taken the Most Hazardous Expeai-
ton of His Eventful Life.
Fred. Funston, who has been in
New York for several months past
doing magazine and newspaper work,
has agreed to go to Cuba as war cor
respondent for Hdrper'S Weekly.
And in order that he may be sure of
seeing things to write about, he has
engaged to join a filibustering eXpe-
dition which has been enlisted to aid
the insurgents, and will be sworn
into the rebel army as an artillery
officer, in command of battery of
Hotchkiss guns That means that he
will be in the thick of the fight, and
will have to see the thing through to
the bitter end.
1t is a frightful risk to run. The
ordinary dangers of war would be
enough to deter a less courageous
soul. But in addition to the chances
of being killed in battle, he faces the
certainty of being put to death if made
prisoner, and the possibility of con-
tracing the fatal fevers of that coun-
try. We wish he were not going.
But since he is, God go with him,
and bring him safe home again! TIE
REGISTER has faith in Fred. Fun
ston a good deal as it has in seeing
the moon over the right shoulder. He
always got home before, and we be-
lieve he will this time.
And what a story he will have to
tell!

A Civilized Gorilla.

At the aquarium in Berlin there is a big gorilla whose habits are a great deal more correct than those of most of his distant relatives. He gets up at s o'clock in the morning, takes bath, and uses soap without hesitation. When his toilet is completed he takes a cup of milk, after which he eats two big loaves of bread with Frankfort sau- sages and smoked Hamburg beef, all of which he moistens with glass of beer. At 1 D. m. he takes a bowl of soup, with rice, potatoes and wing of chick en. He uses his knife, fork and napkin like a born aristocrat, but when he thinks his keepers are not looking he discards the implements of civilization and plunges his muzzle into the bowl, as if to give evidence of the melan- choly fact that even gorilla can be a hog.

DUTIES OF CITIZENSHIP.
A Decency That Is Languid Is More tC

A Decency That Is Languid Is More to
 Be Feared Than Criminality.
 ''The thing we have the most to fear," writes Dr. Parkhurst in an arti- cle on ''The Young Man as Citizen" in the Ladies' Home Journal, lis not the depravity aEd the criminality that are rampant, but the decency that is languid and the responsibility that is indifferent and that will go junketing when a state is on the edge of a crisis or go fishing on day when the city is having its destiny determined for it at the polls. Would that there could be some legislative enactment by which every reputable traitor of the sort could be denaturalized and branded with some stigma of civic outlawry that should extinguish him as an American and cancel his kinship with Columbus, Fourth of July and My Country. Iris of Thee.
 ''I speak with full assurance when I say, for instance, in regard to the city of New York, that there is no single moral issue capable of being raised in regard to its administration where the great preponderance of sentiment would not be found to be on the side of hon. esty as against corruption, provided only that sentiment were sufficiently resolute and alert to come forward and declare itself. The purpose of cam paign under such circumstances is not to convince people of what is right. but to stimulate to the point of action those who are already convinced.

Shallow Flowing for Wheat.

It used to be said that wheat would bear deeper blowing than Ony other grain crop. If the furrow brought to the surface one or two inches of sub soil, that made the soil firmer and less pervious to water, thus leSsening the injury by freezing and thawing. But Western winter wheat growers, and spring wheat growers, also, have learn ed plan that is even better than deep blowing, because it costs much less. They do not blow at all, merely culti- vating the surface among the grain stubble and seeding on that. The wheat makes just as good fall growth, and even better, than where the stub ble is turned under, thus drying the soil. Most of the wheat roots are kept near the surface, for the rains do not penetrate farther than the cultiyator has gone. This saving of blowing en- ables a farmer cheaply to get a large acreage into wheat, and if he gets 8 fair crop he is ready to undersell the Eastern wheat grower, who keeps on blowing for wheat in the expensive, old-fashioned way.

UnIuckx "ouarter to six.n

Seventy-fve per cent. of the people we discharge every year, remarked the head floor walker of a mammoth dry goods blishment, which employs over thousand people, lose their places on account of "a quarter to six"
 "A quarter to six" is the hour at which preparation is made for closing the days business. At that hour the male clerks begin to cover their stocks and the female clerks commence to ar- range themselves to go home. Usually a number of ladies come in at this hour, and the clerks, eager to go home, in answer to questions of customers, usu- ally say, "We are just out" of what the customer happens to want.
 Day after day we discharge girls for this reason, and fifteen times out of twenty you ask girl why she lost her place and she will invariably answer on account of "a quarter to six
