What Would you give

To be Cured of catarrh? If you or your
friends have this disease, you know how
disagreeable it is. Its symptoms are in
famed eyes, throbbing temples, ringing
noises in the ears, headaches, capricious
appetite and constant discharged mucus.
Fortunately its cure is not question Of
what you will give, but what you will
take. III you take Hoods Sarsaparilla,
the great constitutional remedy, which
thoroughly purifies, enriches and vitalizes
the blood, you may expect to be com
pletely and permanently cured. The good
blood, which Hoods Sarsaparilla makes,
reaching the delicate passages of the mu-
cous membrane, soothes and rebuilds the
tissues and ultimately cures all symptoms
of catarrh.

Chinese Cooking.

Chinese cooking depends on the
meat and the cook. They have liter
ally no peculiar implements and no
extraordinary methods. Despite
Charles Lamb. they do not burn down
a house to roast sucking pig. They
have, i'm fact too little initiatives: they
love TO initiate, and the housewife who
grumbles at her Chinese cook gener-
ally has only herself to blame. She
has shown him too much-so much
that he is firmly convinced that the
example is to be copied on each day
and every occasion, and IL Chinaman
has a fault it In that an idea once In
his head Is never got out.
The true plan is to show him just
enough for the particular occasion.

relief is immediate. 1t is an agreeable

Receiver Appointed.

The Pittsburg & Gulf has been placed
in the hands of a receiver This road,
the main line of which traverses rich
section of Arkansas, is said to be one
of the best paying lines in the west.
An official of the road states that the
receivership is due TO a mistake in the
financial plans of the company. Ac-
coroing to his statement, provision was
made for only $1,000 mile for equip
ment, when it should have been $4,000
a mile, and as a result $500, 600 had to
be taken out of the treasury which
should have been applied to the inter
est fund. The earnings of the road last
month were 1885, 200 against 1878, 900 the
the same month last year.
