The recent application Of the Duke of
Aniou to the courts to restrain the Duke
of Orleans from assuming the arms of
France recalls the fact, that FOR many
years there has been intense rivalry among
the surviving members of royal family of
Anjou and the equally noble family .of
Orleans. Representatives Of each in turn
are included in the longest of French
eovcreigns, and each for various considera-
tions claims TO be the rightful heir To the
Bourbon throne. II is not probable that "A

More

Curative power is contained in Hood's SarsaparilIa than m any other similar preparation. It costs the proprietor and manufactures more. It costs the jobber more and is worth more to the consumer. More skill is required in It's preparation and 1t combines more remedial qualities than any other medicine. Consequently 1t has a record of more cures and it's sales are more than those of any other prepara- ton. Hoods Sarsaparilla Is the best medicine to buy because 1t is an hon. est medicine and thousands of testi- monials prove that it does actually and permanently cure diseases.
