Freezing weather in july


Would cause great discomfort and loss but
fortunately it is seldom known. A vast
amount of misery is caused at this season,
however, by impoverished blood. poor
appetite and general debility. These CON-
ditions may be remedied by enriching the
blood and toning the stomach with Hoods
Sarsaparilla. This medicine seems to put
new life into the whole physical system,
simply because of its wonderful power to
purify, enrich and vitalize the blood
create an appetite and invigorate the di-
gestive functions. We advise you to get
a bottle and try it if you are not feeling
just right 1t will do you more good
than six weeks vacation. 1t is the best
medicine money can buy.

How Needles Are Made.

Needles are all made by machinery.
The piece of mechanism by which the
needle is manufactured takes the rough
steel wire, cuts it into proper lengths,
files the point, fiattens the head, pierces
the eye, then sharpens the tiny instru-
ment and gives it that polish familiar
to the purchaser. There is also ma
chine by which needles are counted
and placed in the papers in which they
are sold. these being afterward folded

Cricket versus Baseball.

Life Is more strenuous in America
than in England, and this is shown in
the sports of the two nations. Take
the the game of football Is an illustra-
ton. In the American college game
the tackling is lower, harder and surer
than in the English game. The backs
hit the line as one man, like batter
ing ram. Every yard gained or lost is
of great importance. Year by year the
game grows more complicated, more
fierce. and more perfect mechanically.
1t is getting to be like a fine piece of
machinery in the harmony of the sew
eral parts. In England they play the
game more loosely, much as their ia
theirs did before them. Cricket and
baseball are the national games Of the
respective countries, and nowhere "
national characteristics appear more
evidence Cricket is an all day, /
surely, social event; baseball is an hou.
of wild excitement. The English game
cultivates the amenities of life, and
courtesy is canon of the game. Base
ball keeps the nerves too near the edge
to leave much room for the inter-
change of fellowship and good will to-
ward the opposing team.-Self Culture.
