NEW YORK REFORMS.
Liquor Dealers of the Metropolis are
 in Panic.

New York. April 1.-Continued agitation over the non-enforceuIent of the excise laws in this city and the facility with which liquor may be purcnassd on nun day has led to what may be termed re- volt among the patrolmen of the police force.
 When the charge has been made that liuuor was sold with the full knowledge of the patrolmen. their defense has been that if they should report violations or the law and close saloons they inNsrMpiy were transferred to less desirable posts through the exercise of pulls.
 However the patrolmen in one district say that they are violating their oaths in failing to do their duty and on satur- day reached an agreement to bid den ance to the old influence. Their action in reporting all violations of the excise law caused panic among the liquor dealers
 Apparently this is an opening wedge and now the police of another district have followed sait and a fresh batch of summonses have been issued from Jet- fersoa Market Court.
 Those who have been exercising pulls in the past, are now wondering where the sudden revolt will end
 It is stated today that the Commission CT of Police Colonel Partridge and Dis trfet Attorney Jerome will give the men moral support and protect a fuihiiment of their paths.

 Mrs. Blau is authority for the statement that Wine of Cardui is ''worn-out wo- mans best friend and also that it made her feel "like a new woman. The wo- man who has suffered from female weak ness should do anything within reason to secure health. Wine of Cardui is the med icine that appeals to reesonsible women women who hold operations and cutting in horror-women who know that Nature is the only physician to build mp their weak ened organs and make them feel like new women" Wine of Csrdui gives women back their health by giving Nature a chance to build up the wasted and diseased tissue. Wine of Cardui regulates the men strual flow and Nature, when relieved of the drains or of the poisons in the system, makes the functional organs strong and healthy again.
 Hundreds of women have been made thew women" we'll and happy by Wine of Cardui.
 Mrs. Edith Donaldson, of South Will mington. H., is one of them. She writes:

Mrs. Lizzie Banks, No. HOT Broadstreet, Newark, N. J., is another. She says:
 "I cannot say enough for Wine of cardui. have not finished one bottle and feel ike a new woman. lshail recommend it to all.'
 Any woman who is silently suffering un- told pain because she is too sensitive to undergo a physician s examination and. treatment can find no excuse for not secur-. ing relief when Wine of Cardui is offered to her. There isno publicity to deter her. She can take Wine of CarduiinI the privacy of her home, with as much assurance of a final cure as though dozen doctors rec ommend it. Many physicians do recom-, mend Wine of Gardui to their patients. There is no other scientific medicine that can compare with Wine of Cardui for building up an exhausted constitution and restoring and making healthy the func- tions of wOmanhood.
 Why not get a Sl.00 bottle of Wine of Cardui from your druggist today?

Good health and pure blood are in- separable. If your blood is had your health must he bad. Poor blood allows the body to lose vitality just as poor fire under the boiler allows the steam to run down. From poor blood to impure blood is hat a step, and impure blood is mother to a large percentage of human ills. Dr. 1larter's Iron Tonic is an anti dote for both poor and impure blood. for it is both builder and purifier, food and medicine. It is the best combina- ton of the kind known to medical science, and its success for nearly half century has been so sweeping that it has been endorsed by thousands of medical men who have been unable to find sub stitute.
 The evils resulting from impure blood are legion. ScrOfula. pimples, blotches, kidney disorders, rheumatism, gout. dys- pepsia, female weaknesses, anaemia. chlorosls, etc, are few of them, but the greatest evil, the greatest danger. is the general weakening of the system. which affords an opening for every passing dis ease. Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic twill in- sure you against these evils.
