Mrs. Mollie Allen, of South Fork, KY,
says she has prevented attacks of cholera
morbus by taking Chamberlain's Stom-
ach and Liver Tablets when she felt an
attack coming on. Such attacks are
usually caused by indigestion and these
Tablets are just what is needed to
cleanse the stomach and ward off the
approaching attack. Attacks of bilious
collie may be prevented in the same way.

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 mask. They are still
nervous, easily tired, upset by trifles,
and they do not sleep nor eat well.
What they need is what tones the nerves,
perfects digestion, creates appetite, and
makes sleep refreshing, and that is
Hoods Sarsaparilla. Pupils and teach
ers generally will find the chief purpose
of the vacation best subserved by this
great medicine which, as we know
"builds up the whole system"

zone of the most curious races ! ever
saw" writes a correspondent OF the
London Tatler, was on Mr. Carl Ila-
genbeck's lawn at Hamburg Some
seven children mounted on the backs
Of large turtles or tortoises raced across
the lawn TO give impetus TO their
queer steeds most of them armed them
selves with cabbages which they lied
TO the end Of sticks ever and anon
dangling them as temptilg morsels IN
front OF the turtles II was strange
race and occupied some time Every
now and then turtle would grasp a
piece Of cabbage ana then quietly eat
IL before resuming It's journey"
