pABYs SMOOTH, FAIR SKIN

A Grateful Mother Writes this Lettsr-
Tells all about Her Troubles when
Baby Broke out with ScrofuIa Sores.
"At the age of two months, my baby
began to have sores break out on his right
cheek. We used all the external ap-
plications that we could think or hear of,
to no avail. The sores spread all over one
side of his face. We consulted physi-
clan and tried his medicine, and in a week
the sore was gone. But to my surprise in
two weeks more another scrofulous look
ing sore appeared on baby's arm. 1t
grew worse and worse, and when he was
three months old, l began giving him
Hoods Sarsaparilla. ! also took Hoods
6arsaparilla, and before the trst bottle
was finished, the sores were well and have
never returned. He is now four years old,
but he has never had any sign OF those
scrofulous sores since he was cured by
Hoods Sarsaparilla, for which feel very
grateful. My boy owes his good health
and smooth, fair skin to this great med
icine." MRS. s. S. WRoTEN, Farming
ton, Delaware. Get only Hoods.

COOkfnE Celery.

Although it seems almost a crime to
cook tender, crisp celery, heads of this
vegetable often find their way to the
kitchen that are to be preferred served
hot. Cut such stalks into twO-inch
lengths, and blanch in boiling water
for five minutes. Pour off half the water,
add a cupful of white stock, and boil
the celery for Is or 20 minutes longer,
or until tender, seasoning with salt and
white pepper. Drain and set aside in
hot dish while the liquor in which
it has been boiled is converted into a
sauce by the addition of a little thick
ened butter and flour and a wineglass of
Madeira poured in at the last moment.
Pour the sauce around the celery and
send TO the table in a covered dish.-N.

Opinion about the War.

In 1867 Victor Hugo wrote to the
Revolutionary Committee of Porto
Rico: Spain out of America 7? That
must be the great aim and that the
great duty of American citizens.
Cuba free! Iapplaud all these great
designs!"
Can we, who went mad with pas
sion over the massacres Of the Arme-
mans, dare to sneer at the Americans
because they are maddened by stories
of Spanish cruelty in Cuba Can we,
who have never forgiven our govern
ment for not daring all, risking all,
for the cause OF the murdered Arme-
mans, dare to sheer at the Americans
beause they are crying out to their
government to plunge into war for
the sake of the wretched Cubans !?
do not say that we have sneered at
them; | only say that there is danger
lest we fail to recognize and to ap-
preciate the vehemence of the senti-
ment and the passionate sense OF
duty which now actuate the great
American people. Sentiment can
never be neglected. When a whole
people are united by one common
passion-one common resolve-that
a thing iniquitous and barbarous
must and shall cease, then it is the
part of mailman to ignore this
feeling and to withhold the tribute
of admiration which it deserves
[Sir Walter Besant.
Froude, in his delightful book,
English Seamen of the Sixteenth
Century, says that the Spanish Ar
mazda met disaster as much through
the rascally contractors Of Spain,
who built rotten ships and provide
rotten food, as through the valor o.
the British and the violence OF the
winds. Recent writers show that
Spain is still cursed by an army O

Extend Our r1arkets.

At this juncture, it is we'll to re-
mind ourselves that we are fast out
growing our own markets. Our ma
chinery in efficient working order for
six or eight months supplies all our
needs for the whole year. 1t is the
hight of folly then, when we have a
windfall like that of the Philippines,
to scorn possibilities in serene en-
deavor to conduct war for human
ity's sake alone. We shall kick our
selves by and by for our obtuseness
if we let "the richest archipelago in
the world" slip through our fingers
through any shilly-shally squeamlsh'
ness, that is to say, if the war is pro-
longed and costs us heavily in blood
and treasure.
