Cures
Cures talk in favor - - a.
Of Hoods Sarsaparilla, 1K
as for no other medi- y eo -

cine. Its great cures recorded in truthful,
convincing language OF grateful men and
women, constitute its most effective ad-
vertising. Many of these cures are mar
yelous. They have won the confidence OF
the people; have given Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla the largest sales in the world, and
have made necessary for its manufacture
the greatest laboratory on earth. Hoods
Sarsaparilla is known by the cures 1t has
made-cures of scrotula, salt rheum and
eczema, cures OF rheumatism, neuralgia
and weak nerves, cures OF dyspepsia, liver
and kidney troubles, catarrh and malaria.
Such Cures as This Prove Merit.
"My little nephew was plump and
healthy baby until year and a half old,
then sores broke out behind his ears and
spread rapidly over his head, hands and
body. A physician said the trouble was
scrofula humor in the blood. The child
became one complete sore. We had to
restrain his hands to keep him from
scratching the sores. We were induced
to try Hoods Sarsaparilla, and in short
time he had more life. He improved rap
idly, his skin became entirely clear OF
sores and he is now healthy child" MRS.
FLORENCE ANDREWS, Clearfeld, Iowa.

II the observers at Flagstaff are
right in their conclusions that Mer.
curry and Venus make but one revolu.
ton on their axis during their journey
round the sun, so that each day Is q
year long, these planets cannot be in.
habited by people constituted like those
on the earth. It has been supposed
that Venus at least was very similar
to the earth In it's phenomena and
characteristics, and might be peopled
by much Of the same kind Of beings;
but as Venus period Of rotation is
nearly the same as that Of the earth
1t must have six months Of uninter-
rupted sunshine and six Of continuous
night-conditions which, in the case Of
the moon, have been accepted as inpIy.
Ing unDeurabio--heakt during the day
and uncomfortable cold during the night.
The Flagstaff observers have the best
opportunity for observing this difficult
planet that has yet been given to as
tronomers, and their conclusions are,
therefore, most likely to be correct:
but it may be noted that Schroter and
the two Cassinis have all calculated
its revolution to be accomplished in
about twenty-three hours and twenty
one minutes. The phenomena on
which their calculations are based.
however, were confessedly few and m
certain, and If they were incorrectly
traced the conclusions drawn from
them are necessarily worthless.-Phila-
delphia Ledger.

a STRANGE CASE.

Partial Less q Memory After 1 Ter.
ribls Railway Accident.
One OF the victtms Of the Atlantic
City meadows railroad horror Is Fran
cis A. Morrell, who lives viii his faith.
er at East Orange, N. j. lie IL IS years
OLD. unmarried, and was, prior to the
accident, connected with the law once
Of his brother-ln-law, George Clymer,
b Newark.
The remarkable feature Of the case
70 the fact that, while slowly returning
to his normal ply steal condition, hiS
mental condition 10 such that he re.
calls nothing Of the accident. when
spoken to upon the subject Of the
collision he denies any recollection Of
1t, or that he was in Il, and attributes
the pain in his head to neuralgia.
He was taken out of the wreck Mt
D point almost under one of the locomo.
tives. He reads the newspaperu. en-.
tiers earnestly and intelligentiy into =
conversation, and seems a. clear-mind.
ed a. any one else, except OH the sub.
ject Of the accident.
When Morrell was taken to Atlantic
City Sanitarium after the accident It
was found that he was practically
ecalped ON the left side Of his head.
his ear was torn of with the scalp.
and the skin from the left side Of his
face almost around to the. point Of
his jaw. His left shoulder blade was
badly fractured and the bones Of his
shoulder were broken. His left arm
was badly injured, his legs were q
mass of bruised and lacerated fiesh.
and he was crushed about the lower
part of the trunk Of his body 20 badly
as to cause severe internal injuries.
which make his restoration to almost
normal physical condition little short
Of marvellous. His external wounds
are nearly all healed, except where his
ear was torn.
Owing to the remarkable recovery
from his physical wounds, the doctors
now entertain the hope that what II
now blank to him may return to his
memory aud his recovery be complete.
His conversation with members Of
the family is often sharp and bright.
In many instances, however, the in
tervention of q few hours time will
apparently obliterate from his memory
all trace Of the conversation, and he
will deny that It took place or that
certain things were done. On the other
hand, matters which it was not be-
ueved he could well remember he re-
called with ease, two. three, or four
days after their occurrence. In fact,
he understands and talks well about
everything except the accident and
anything pertaining to 1t, and while he
listens with interest to anything said
about 1t, he declares earnestly that
he knows nothing Of it, and that It
never happened, in spite Of his fright

PRESIDENTIAL WORRIES.
Ex-President Harrison Tells of the
Waste of Time by Office-Seekers.

1t is rare good fortune during the early
months of an administration If the President
gets one wholly uninterrupted hour AT his
desk each day. The Presidents time is so
broken into bits that he is often driven to
late night work, or to set up desk in his
bedroom when preparing a message or
other paper requiring unbTOken attention.
Thoughtlessness is the root OF all this.
~ only want five minutes" and if he
Were the only one it could he spared; but
his double is at his heels, and the urgent
public business is postponed or done at
that untimcly visitors should be excluded,
and so they should; but thoughtlessness on
their part would be q cure without smart.
For the first year and a half of an admin
istration the President spends from four to
six hours each day talking about things
he will not have to act upon for months
while the things that ought to be done pres
emily are hurtfully postponed. If the Presi-
dent could make up and publish an appoint
ment docket, and notify all persons having
anything n particularcase to draw
near on a fixed day, it would result in
great saving OF tinle all around, and great
saving of money to the applicants, who
could remain at home until summoned TO ap-
pear. No papers should be received after
the submission of the case, and motions
for a rehearing and for a new trial should
be barred.--Ladies' Home Journal.

procession that escorted Lincoln TO the
Capitol was large and enthusiastic.
His preliminary visit to the Senate
chamber was occasiOned by wish of
Lincoln to see his associate on the ticket
Hannibal Hamlin, take oath as Vice Presi-
dent
Vice President Breckinridge greeted his
successor pleaSan ntly, and also his own
successful competit or, the incoming
President. Meanwhile, from the galleries
curious eyes were focused upon the much
talked-off Abraham Lincoln Never before
inthe history Of the chamber had the dipID-
matte gallery been so closely filled
Every minister and all attaches with their
wives in gorgeous array, were there, and
from the peculiar gaze of some of them it
would seem as if they had expected to
see some curious freak of a man in the
new President. They saw instead a tan,
angular gentleman, as the only non self
concious occupant of the chamber, clad, not
as a TaiLsplitter, but in an Immaculate
black suit, with hair falling picturesquely
over a Fl nelly chiseIed and expansive
forehead, over a nose such as could be
seen on the busts of Cicero and Caesar,
and with his bearing nodded to a rude
natural grace, while his every movement
betokened fTankness and sincerity.
Only one Southern Senator-Wigfall, Of
Texas-was there to be introduced; he
who was in a few weeks thereafter 10 be
among the Confederate group whooffieiated
at the surrender of Fort Sumter.
As the noon hour struck Vice President
Breckinridge bade farewell in a short adj
dress, and then passed the gavel to Hamlin,
who briefly assumed the duties, when all
officials became ready to form a process
sion toward the adjacent eastern portico
as assistants in the great inaugural eere-
mony Of the day. An abundance of seats
had been prepared for the officials, and for
each member OF the diplomatic corps and
ladies under their escort. Against the
bright toilets of the latter the black silk
gowns of the judges OF the Supreme Court
made striking foil. All of these were there
except Justice John A. Campbell, of Ala
hama, who was preparing to cast his for
tunes with the Confederacy, and to become
thereafter one of it's strong props. The
