REMARKABLE PROJECT.
fiygeia Hotel to be Moved Across
Water.

The Hygeia Hotel at Old Point
Comfort, one of the largest in the
United States, is to be moved eight
miles across Hampton roads. The
moving of frame and brick build

rarely is a building moved across
such an immense stretch of water
The Hygeia is frame building 400
feet long and the engineers have a
difficult task before them. 1t will
be hard enough to move the big
hotel from its present foundations
to RATS or boats, but the transpor-
tation to Willoughby Spit, eight
miles away, is the really hazard

loughby Spit has offered $50, 600 to
the Hygeia's owner if they will de
liver the big hotel safe and sound.

Only a Mask.

Many are not being benefited by
the summer vacation as they should
be. Now, Notwithstanding much
outdoor life, they are little if any
stronger than they were. The tan
on their faces is darker and makes
them look healthier, but it is only a
mask. They are still nervous
easily tired, upset by trifies, and
they do not eat nor sleep well
What they need is what tones the
nerves, perfects digestion, creates
appetite, and makes sleep refresh
ing, and that is Hood S Sarsapari.la
Pupils and teachers generally will
find the chief purpose of the vaca
tion best subserved by this great
medicine which, as we know, builds
up the whole system.
