ADVOCATES OF TEMPERANCE.
Meet in st. Rose Hall--Ofiicers of the
Scranton Diocesan Union Present.

A meeting was held on Thursday
evening which was attended by mem
bers of the local temperance societies
Of this city. The meeting was called
to order by William MIlloy A. +.
Banks, of the Pioneer society, was chos-
en- president, and Mr.. Malloy secretary.
The presiding officer read letter from
Rev. T. +. Cofey, regretting that alb
Sence from the city prevented him from
being present. After a few remarks he
introduced President O'Hara, of the
Catholic Total Abstinence union, of the
Scranton diocese. MIR. O'Hara then
spoke upon the condition of the socie-
ties. He gave credit to Carbondale for
excellent work in behalf of the temper
arce cause. The membership had in
creased during the two years past and
was now about 5000. While there are
many temperance advocates, all do not
belong to societies. There is need of
organization in order to do more effec-
tive work. 1t is organized, he said, for
special purpose, and was blessed and
encouraged by the Catholic church. He
mentioned what had been accomplished
in Wilkes Barre, Scranton, Freeland
and other places. At Wilkes-B Barre the
St. Aloysius society had established
that organization attended it. Presi
dent O'Hara mentioned the annual con-
Vention soon to meet at Nanticoke. and
advised the societies to be represented
by delegates. He spoke also of the ma
tional convention to be held in Scranton
beginning on Aug. 1S and hoped that
good representatives would come from
Carbondale. The people of Scranton
are endeaVoring to make ii the grand
est convention ever held in America.
After this practical address, Vice
President Mccoy made an earnest APP
peal in behalf of the cause and showed
the great good accomplished by united
effort Secretary f. w. Early said that
reports received from different societies
were not all as encouraging as they de-
sired, and yet two adult societies, one
cadet society and one lady organization
had been formed during the year.
Remarks followed from Hon. John
Kelly, Frank McCafferty ana several
others.

Experience teaches the impor- IVA
tance of special care of the health. "
And fixed among the impor-
tant principles of hygiene and health is
the acknowledged necessity of good
Spring Medicine.
Just as firmly established by the ex-
periences of millions of people, is the
positive fact that Hoods Sarsaparilla
is "far and away" the best blood puri-
fer and spring medicine ever produced.
The necessity is found in the i'm
pure condition. of the blood at this
season, owing to the close confine-
ment and breathing vitiated air in Of
flee, store, shop, house, schoolroom
or factory; excessive eating and drink
ing too rich and hearty food; late
hours and social indulgences. With
the blood thus thick and impure, the
machinery of life grinds hard.
Hoods Sarsaparilla purifies, vital
ICES and enriches the blood, builds up
and strengthens the nerves and tones
the stomach. 1t oils up the machinery
of the whole body; the liver takes up
its work anew, the kidneys resume
activity, the ache goes out of the back,
the bowels are regulated, the appetite
restored, the food is relished and as
simulated.
Don't wait till You are thoroughly
sick before you begin to take Spring
Medicine.

preventive and it will pay you thou
