The Russian minister of the interior,
acting under instructions from the
czar, has alleviated the severity of the
press laws in all the larger towns and
cities of the empire, in fact wherever
the population is over 100000, by eN-
empting the newspapers from the OBJ
legation of submitting all articles on
political subjects to the censor before
publication. Hitherto only a few of
the principal papers at St. Petersburg,
Moscow, Warsaw and Odessa have en-
joyed the immunity.

Poor
Blood

When horse is poor IN flesh,
a new harness won't give him
strength. IF a house is cold
new furniture won't warm it.
IF your strength Is easily ex-
hausted; work a burden;
nerves weak; digestion poor;
muscles soft; If You are pale
and worn out, the trouble Is
with the blood. It is not so
much IMPURE blood as
POOR blood. Pills won't
make this blood rich; nor will
bitters, nor iron tonics, any
mora than new harness will
give strength to the horse, or
new furniture will make a
house warm. For poor blood
you want something that will
make rich blood.
SCOTT'S EMULSION of
Cod-1iver Oil with Hypophos-
