went to the capitol to hear the pro
ceedings in the United States senate.

free trade and with fear of Organism,
commercial failures in the United
States numbered 1,175, with total liza
bilities amounting to $26, 11O,366 Last
month, after three years of protection
and with confidence in the reelection

ing to $6,255,092. But Mr.. Bryan goes
right on In his speeches saying that
failures are increasing and joyfully
proclaiming that prosperity is doomed.
He tells the farmer that he Is laboring
under hallucination If he believes
that prosperity is smiling on him. But
the farmer goes home and remembers
that he sold his steers on the hoof al

Good News for our Readers
Who have scrofula taints in their blood,
and who has not ? Scrofula in all its forms
is cured by Hoods Sarsaparilla which
thoroughly purifies the blood. This dis
ease, which frequently appears in children
is greatly to be dreaded 1t is most likely
to affect the glands of the neck, which
become enlarged, eruptions appear on the
head and face, and the eyes are frequently
affected. Upon it's first appearance, per-
haps in slight eruptions or pimples, scro-
fula should be entirely eradicated from
the system by thorough course of Hoods
Sarsaparilla to prevent all the painful and
sickening consequences of running
scrofula sores which drain the system, sap
the strength and make existence utterly
wretched.

No wonder we have flies! The COM
mon house fly lays 20 eggs every IA
days: there are thus about dozen
generations during the fly season. The
bluebottle or blowfy, however, ex-
ceeds this and in one season is estimat-
ed to have 5OO,OO0000 descendants.
Therefore every fly killed early in the
season, when they emerge from their
winters hiding place, means a big re-
duction in the fly crop of the coming
summer. We couldn't get on without
flies, however, for they do most Inn
portant work as scavengers.
