Those Dreadful Sores
They Continued to Spread in Spite
OF Treatment but Now They are
Healed A Wonderful Work.

"For many years l have been great
sufferer with varicose veins on one of my
limbs. My foot and limb became dread
fully swollen. When / stood up could
feel the blood rushing down the veins Of
this limb. One day I accidentally hit my
foot against some object and sore broke
out which continued to spread and was
exceedingly painful. I concluded l
needed a blood purifier and began taking
Hoods Sarsaparilla. In short time
those dreadful sores which had caused
me so much suffering, began to heal. I
kept on faithfully with Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla, and in a short time my limb was
completely healed and the sores gave me
10 more pain. I cannot be too thankful
for the wonderful work Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla, has done for me-" MRS. A. E.

A great change has come about il
the past few years in the way Of keep
ing the Fourth, says Harper's Bazaar.
1t is still ushered in by the booming Of
cannon and the ringing of bells, an6
professions following drums mark the
morning hour, while fireworks finish
the day witha brave display of rockets
pin wheels, Roman candles, aud
showers and cascades of flame. Thus
far the public celebrates, with the
municipality authorizing funds to cover
the expense; and in larger towns OF
smaller villages there is little difference
in the order of proceedings. In house
hold life the day marks the high-roll-
ing tide of the summer holidays. As
in winter we date events from Christ
mas, in summer we regard the Fourth
as milestone for memory. But We
women might well pause and consider
whether we are taking advantage Of the
Fourth as we ought, in fostering the
patriotic spirit among our sons and
daughters. Few of these are familiar,
as we used to be, with the burning
words of the great Declaration. Few
ofus read aloud and re-read and study
the history of our Nation, Nation
whichhas behind it so bright career
and before it so splendid an opportun-
ity. Few of u.s. comparatively, are
thrilled with the love of our land and
with pride in its name and fame as We
should be. On the faces of confident
young Americans there is too often
sneer where there should be smile
when patriotism is the theme On the
Fourth we may well renew our spoken
love for our native land, and perhaps
sing some such stirring lyric as DR..
Holmes gave us in "Union and Liber-
ty:"
Flag of the heroes who left US their glory,
Borne through their battleaelds' thunder
and fame,
Blazoned in song and lllumined in story,
Wave Ger us all who inherit their fame.
Up with our banner bright,
SprinkIed with starry light,
Spread its fair emblems from mountain to
shore.
While through the sounding sky
Loud rings the Nations cry,
Union and Liberty one eyermore.

slim, brown feet, guiltless of shoes or
stockings, aud the kindly old couple
had adopted her into their heart and
home.
Now, at eighteen, she was socially
their equal, to all intents and pur-
poses, and loved them with a timid,
shrinking devotion.
But since Flora Plimpton had
crossed her orbit, that bold, dashing
girl, who was ''tryer-on" in Holt &
Hanneford's big cloak and mantle
store in New York, disturbing ele-
ment had risen into her heart-a long
ing to see the world, to mingle with
the gay throng of whom Flora told
her, to drink draft from the cup of
brimming, seething life that other
people drank.
George Annis, the head carpenter of
the rubber works, had seemed delight
full company up to this time, but now
he appeared tame and countrified be-
side Mr.. Dave Ferguson, black
tached aud scarf pinned, who had
deigned to cast gracious glance upon
her rural charms.
All her little system of existence
was troubled and upset Leah scarcely
knew why. Hitherto she had been
serenely happy, like one of the twit-
tering robins in the thicket; now a
vague sense of wrong and discomfort
took possession of her as she entered
the house. drew the ponderous bolt,
and went up to her room.
''It is quite true what Flora Plimp-
ton says" she thought. 81 never go
anywhere, or see anythingl"
''Who was that talking over the
gate with you last night, Leah?" Mrs.
Halliday asked, the next day, as she
helped Leah shell the peas for din
ner.
''It was Flora Plimpton."
81 wouldn't set too much store by
that girl, Leah, if / was you," coun-
selled the good woman, reaching for
another handful of the emerald pods.
'sThe Plimptons always had bad
name. and never heard no good of
Flora, even arter they went away from
here. A girl like you can't be too
careful who she goes with. "
Leah was silent, but she shelled
away faster than ever.
There are times when advice
seems to produce a directly opposite
effect of what is intended, and Mrs.
Hallidays words only served to
strengthen the girls resolve to have
her own way for once.
81 shouldn't wonder, added the old
woman, with a sly smile, ''if George
Annis were to come up this way Fourth
O July, arter me and fathers gone"
Still the peas ratified into the pan
like miniature fusilade of artillery.
Leah never looked up nor spoke.
"And | don't see as there'd be any
harm in your askin' him to stay to din
ner, added Mrs. Halliday. He'd be
sort o company for you"
II don't want any company" burst
out Leah. "If he says anything more
to Mr.. Halliday, ask him not to come.
I'd rather be alone"
"Why, child, what's come to you?"
said Mrs Halliday, in surprise
Leah made no answer. She was
thinking of Ferguson's flashing black
eyes and square chin.
George Annis was nice-looking

Among the achievements of science
is the production of petroleum from
linseed oil by distillation under pres
sure. Two theories have been held
as to the origin of petroleum. One is
that it is vegetable. the other Of
animal origin. 1t is not unlikely that
it may be a combination of both. Ami
NAL and vegetable oils filter through
the ground and might, by changes in
the chemical laboratory of nature,
produce this substance. Atall events,
the fact is significant and interesting,
especially as several petroleum hydro
carbons have resulted from the ex'
periments as noted.

The morning of Fo urth of July rose
full Of sweet summer hazes, musical
with the trill of birds, and sparkling
with dew.
Leah could scarcely wait for the old
farm wagon TO drive off before she be-
gan her own toilet, frizzing her hair to
look like Flora's tangled tresses, and
adjusting the newly-laundered pink
muslin gown TO initiate, as nearly as
possible, the prevailing fashion.
Her heart beat restlessly; the color
came and went nervously on her
cheek; and even after she was stand
ing at the dock, with the house-key in
her hand, she began to think that the
time never would come for the excur-
sion boat 70 steam around the curve of
the hills. -
"What will George Annis think if
he comes there and finds it all shut up
aud vacant?" she thought, with spe-
cies of strange exultation.
Hushl The sound of drum and
horn and piercing fife, the futter of
bunting, the roar of paddle wheelsl
The boat was here at last, and the
first object she took note of was Flora
Plimpton, waving handkerchief from
the guards.
"Come on board" shouted Flora,
looking red aud excited "Dave
Ferguson amt here yet. He'll get on
next landing. Hurry-hufryr'
But in her haste Leah had dropped
the house-key, and stepped out of the
throng to pick it up from the trampled
grass
With the sight of its cleaning brass
wards, a sudden thought flashed into
her mind. The money in the old
Dutch cabinet at homel
Why had she never remembered
that? How had she proved so faith
less to the trust the old people had
tacitly imposed ON her?
She lifted pale, remorseful face to
Flora.
"I-I can't gol" said she, huskily
''There's something I've forgotten.
"What nonsensep' screamed Flora.
"You'll be too latel"
"All aboardp' yelled the stout man
in the blue-and- gold uniform at the
gangplank
The drum rolled out, the flies
shrieked ioyfully, the paddle wheels
FLASHED again, and the bright flags
fioated away, while Leah fed tumult-
uously back through dew-dripping
thickets aud long stretches of sun
stepped meadow.
The money! the money! 1t seemed
as if her light feet were weightel-as
if every pulsing, sunshiny second were
an hour. The money! the money!
In sight of the old house, she
stopped aghast. The west window
was wide open, its veil of climbing
Michigan roses torn rudely away,
wooden bench drawn up close to it, rs
if to serve-as step to some one who
desired to effect unlawful entrance
From the inside she could hear vague,
muffied sounds, as if of hand-to- hand
combat, thena heavy fall.
''You villain!" roared voice, so
hoarse that at first she did not recog-
nize it for George Annis, "Ive gotyou
nowl"
She rushed frantically in.
"George-George, what is it?" she
cried.
With O clothesline which he had
snatched from peg behind the door,
George Annis was binding the arms of
a man who lay painting and pale on the
foor-the arms Of Mr.. David Fer
guson.
