What We Eat

Is intended to nourish and sustain
Us, but 1t must be digeSted aud
asSimiIated before it can do this.
Ia other words, the nOurishment
contained IN food must be separ-
ated by the digestive organs from
the waste materials aud mus
be carried by the blood to all
parts of the body. We believe the
reason for the great benefit
which so many people derive
from Hoods Sarsaparilla lies in
the fact that this medicine gives
good digestion and makes pure,
rich blood. II restores the func-
tons OF those organs which
convert TODD into nourishment that
gives strength to nerves and
muscles. 1t also cures dyspep-
STA, scrofula, salt rheam, bOils,

eases that have their origin in

PHILADELPHlA'S CITY TRUST.
One of the Greatest Trusts in the World
Organized 81 Years.

One of the greatest trusts of the world
is the city trust of Philadelphia, which
was organized 81 years ago, before the
Standard Oil Company was conceived.
This trust is not industrial, but it is
the body that controls the city insti-
tutions of Philadelphia, and has charge
of 35 trusts in all. administering the
many funds, beginning with the be-
quests of Benjamin Franklin and in
Guiding the largest that of Stephen
Girard, with assets of $15, ,OOO,O 900 and
an income of 81, 236, ,045.
The Board consists of some of the
best-known citizens of Philadelphia,
and administers the funds in thor
oughly businesslike manner. 1t owns
the best docks on the Delaware River
water front, half dozen of the finest
office buildings, several valuable coal
mines, railroad stock and many pieces
of real estate which are rented at good

Shirt-Waists For Men.

They say that manufacturers are
busy making thousands of shirt-waists
for men for next summers trade. This
summer the novelty first made its ap-

few of the ultra-f fashionable men.
Next year it is thought that it will,
like the woman's shirt-waists, be en-
braced by large proportion of the
male population. And why not A
man ought to have as much license to
be comfortable as a woman.
Let the shirt-waist man have a fair

pend on it that he will not stick to it

How few women know what it is to

lines of suffering.
