Ohio Woman Suffered Great Agony
From a Terrible Sore-Her Story Of
the Case, and Her Cure.
"For many years was afflicted with
milk leg, and a few years ago it broke out
in sore and spread from my foot to my
knee. l suffered great agony. 1t would
burn and itch all the time and discharge
a great deal. My health was good with
the exception of this sore. tried great
many kinds of salve, but some would
irritate the sore SO that l could hardly
stand the pain. could not go near the
fire without suffering intensely. Some one
sent me papers containing testimonials of
cures by Hoods Sarsaparilla, and told
my husband would like to try this med
icine. He got me bottle and found it
helped me. ] kept on taking it until my
limb was completely healed. l cannot
praise Hoods Sarsaparilla enough for the
great benefit it has been to me. 1t

THE MARKETS.
Wall street Review.

New York, Dec. i.--Today's stock mar
ket was left almost entirely to the room
traders and they seemed disposed to de-
press prices during the early part of the
session by short sales. Their effort met
with little response and they covered be-
fore the close. The movement of prices
was, however trivial throughout the
day, except in 4 few special cases. Men-
haitian rctloCtCd the anxiety of those who
had bought yesterday. Heavy offerings
at the opening sold the stock down a
point the lowest OF the day. The close
was near the low point after a full recDv-
cry i'm the meantime. Sugar was traded
IN for tho most part at level below
yesterdays close. SusQuchanna and
Western continued to rise in price and
Delaware and HUDSON of the coal group
SYmpathi2ed. but New Jersey Central and
the Reading stocks on the other hand
were heavy. The dly's news, SO far as
it was regarded, was favorable. Total
sales of stocks were 9O,SO0 shares.

Captain Jack Crawford Sends a
Word of Cheer.

The following letter from Captain
Jack Crawford the noted "Poet Scout"
who gave us such an excellent and en-
tertaining address last September will
be appreciated by all who have ever
listened to or heard of him. 1t is hoped
that the jovial Captain will entertain
us again as his letter intimates.
Editor, PRISON MIRROR,
want to say just word to the boys.
Since l have been to Saltwater, l have
talked at the Leavenworth and at the
Charlestown prisons, as we'll as several
state refOrmatories, and have received
hundreds of letters all breathing that
same spirit of thankfulness which
characterized the letters from Still
water, and which are more gratifying
to me than any compliments that 1 re-
ceive from the general public.

Boston who stopped me on the street,

Wishing you all success and future
happiness, believe me, yours in clouds
or sunshine,
CAPT. JACK CRAWFORD.
