If the information contained in the fol-
lowing lines had been in the possession Of
James H. Wallace, Of Detroit, Mich, he
would have saved more than 5000 and
would have enjoyed five years Of health
and happiness, instead Of torture.
MIR. Wallace is an expert accountant and
bookkeeper, In the office Of C. A. Haber-
korn & CO., Detroit. He lives with his
family in pretty home at 240 Sixth Street.
He was marked by misfortune from his
birth, having inherited scrofula.
Still young man, MIR. Wallace seemed,
as he told his story, to have long Life Of
vigorous health and Usefulness before him.
He tells about the remarkable incident
that led to his complete restoration as follows:
"The first physician soon said had a
constitutional Blood disorder, and by con-
slant treatment and diet II might be cured!
"B1ood purifiers and spring medicines
made the eruptions more aggressive and
painful. In 1888 was fearful looking

Some Creamery Figures.


We are able to give some interesting
figures from the record made by the
Farmers Mutual Creamery during the
past year:
From 235, O32 lbs. of milk and 34S, 796
lbs. of cream, the institution turned out
1872, 1876 lbs. of butter at cost of little
over two cents per lb. on the cars at St.
Johnsbury, netting the farmers 1915 cents
per ID. for their butter, which is quite a
high figure, considering the business de-
preston and low prices of the past year.
The butter sales amounted to $24, 515.-
O6, and the sales of buttermik and sour
milk, $4s3.52; profit of from u to 1 C.
per lb. was paid monthly to the patrons,
after all expenses had been met.
This creamery started business with
out having any specially established
market for it's products, and it must be
conceded that the record made is an ex-
cellent one, very creditable to it's man
agement.
To accommodate the increased number
of patrons 800 new cans have been pur-
chased during the year; this in addition
to the 500 worth of cans with which
the creamery began business.
The annual meeting will be held at the
creamery next Monday afternoon, and
all farmers, whether patrons or stock
holders, or not, are invited to be present
to learn more fully the methods pursued.

All the time, owing to impoverished
blood, should take Hoods Sarsaparilla
to purify and enrich his blood and give
him vitality and vigor.
This condition OF weakness and lack of
energy is a natural consequence of the
coming of warmer weather, which finds
the system debilitated and the blood i'm
pure.
A good spring medicine is necessity
with almost everyone. Hoods Sarsa-
parilla is what the millions take in the
spring. Its great power to purify and
enrich the blood and build up health is
one of the facts of common experience.

Dear little blossom, too fragile for earth,
Gone to the Father who granted it birth.
Tiny white hands that folded to rest
Tenderly, lovingly over his breast.
Dear little feet that shall never more stray
over the thorns that strown in lifes way
Dear little soul that has taken its fight,
Out from the darkness of earth's dreary light
Called by the Father of infinite love
Up to the beautiful mansions above.
Miss it, o, yes! But our Father knows best,
And it was He called darling to rest
And when we're through with earth sorrow and
- care,
Wen all be nnitedIforever-up there.
