BY Experience

Wise men use the experience OF others
and make it their own.
Those who have taken Hoods Sarsapa.
rilla are the ones who are competent to
speak of its merits.
Thousands of these people say Hoods
Sarsaparilla has cured Them
The testimonials of cures by Hoods
constitute vast mass of testimony which
proves the power of this medicine to cure
a great variety of diseases.
These cures often seem marvellous, yet
they are perfectly natural and are easily
explained. They are the necessary result
of purifying and enriching the blood.
Pure blood is the foundation of health.
Hoods Sarsaparilla is the One True Blood
Purifier and cures disease by purifying
and enriching the blood.
1t possesses peculiar curative power,
that is, it cures when other medicines
cannot cure, because it is peculiar in COM
bination, proportion and process.
That is all there is to be explained about
the cures by Hoods Sarsaparilla.

Fort Bayard, too, is to be used as a
military s%anitarium the same as Fort
Stanton, says a Silver City exchange.
The military sanitarium industry is
f%iourishing in New Mexico, and it is not
altogether out of the question that Fort
Marcy may some day be turned into a
sanitarium for the army. Santa Fe
wants the reservation for municipal
| and school purposes, and ought to have
it, but if the powers that be refuse to
make the city a present of it, no better
use could be found for it than to turn
it into a sanitarium. 1t would not only
| be an advantage to local business and
a great advertisement for the city, but
a blessing to many sufferers who, for
| the cure or alienation of their ailment,
could not find a better climate than that
| of Santa Fe.

The fact that politics did not play an
important role in school elections held
this month throughout the territory
would be a gratifying sign were it not
also a sign hat there is an apathy
among citizens on public school affairs
that is deplorable. In some districts not
a single vote vas cast. and in many not
one-third of those entitled to vote cast
their ballot. The public schools are of
such Importance to a community that
it is not surprising to hear hal the
greatest apathy was manifested in
those districts hat need public schools
most and that are most backward in
their growth. Good public schools, good
school management and progress go
hand in hand in the United States, and
no community can neglect it's public
schools without going backward in ev-
cry other respect.

Civil Service Exceptions.

When Cleveland's blanket civil serv-
ice orders went into effect his Demo-
cratic cabinet had filled all the offices
with Democrats. Cleveland found only
10000 places occupied by civil service
men. In three years all others We're put
into the hands Of Democrats. Then
when he was to go out, the blanket was
spread over 40, 900 more men whom his
cabinet officers had got into the service.
In thousands of the positions the merit
system could not apply. Secretary La
mont objected to the blanket being
spread ove the war department, and
said it would cover too many places it
should not. Cleveland answered that
where misfits occurred the order could
be changed. President Mckinley began
more than a year & to ascertain what
exceptions should be made, and his re-
cent order Is the result. He has a con-
sistent record as a true civil service re-
former, and his proposed changes are
for the good of the service. To clerical
places the merit system is applicable,
but not to mental laborers and places
where judgment is required. The Cleve-
