From Washington
4 ow a Little BOY Was Saved.

Washington, D. &C When our
boy was about 16 months old he broke
out with rash which was thought to
be measles. In a few days he had
swelling on the left side of his neck
and it was decided to be humps. He
was given medical attendance for
about three weeks when the doctor
said it was scrofula and ordered
salve. He wanted to lance the sore,
but [ would not let him and continued
giving him medicine for about four
months when the bunch broke in two
places and became a running sore.
Three doctors said it was scrofula and
each ordered a blood medicine. A
neighbor told me of case somewhat
like our baby's which was cured by
Hoods Sarsaparilla. I decided to
give it to my boy and in short while
his health improved and his neck
healed so nicely that I stopped giving
him the medicine. The sore broke
out again, however, whereupon again
gave him Hoods Sarsaparilla and its
persistent use has accomplished a COM
plete cure. / do not think there viii be
even a scar left. [ cannot speak too
highly of Hoods Sarsaparilla and I rec
ommend it everywhere I get a chance"
Mrs. NETTIE CHASE, Al K ST., n. E.
Like MAGGIE
A complication of troubles, dys-
pepsia. chronic catarrh and infam-
nation of the stomach, rheumatism,
etc., made me miserable. Had no
appetite until 1 took Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla, which acted like magic I am
thoroughly cured" N. B. SEELEY,
1874 West 14th Ave-, Denver, Col.
If you have failed to get relief from
other remedies try Hoods Sarsapa-
rilla. It cures when all others fail,
because it is Peculiar to Itself.

EXPECTS WAR TO LAST.
England Counts on a Year Yet, at
Least.

London, March 12.--At the commence
ment of the debate in the house of COM
mons today on the army estimates the
parliamentary secretary for the war
Office, Mr.. Wyndham, declared that re-
cent events did not justify at the pres
ent time any diminution in the provi-
sion for the further conduct of the
campaign in South Africa. The finan-
cial cost of the war, he declared, was
not Immediately altered by fluctuations
of failure or success. It would be rash
at present to think that the number of
months the British army would remain
in South Africa was likely to be mate
rally shortened. So the government
estimates included that was believed
to be enough money to continue the
efforts at full pressure for another six
months and at half pressure for six
months thereafter.
