Spring Tonic.
Body Builder
Doctors Strongly Advise That a
Tonic Be Taken This Month to
Enrich the Blood and Bring
Fresh Vigor and Life to
the Entire Body

Now when the gentle spring days are
here and the seasonable spring snow
ers are revivifying ali nature and all
plant life is starting to bud forth IN
glory many a man and woman does
not feel the joyousness which should
be theirs at this season. Rather they
feel languid, tired, have very little or
no appetite, ambition is gone, lack en-
ergy, enjoy neither work nor rest. Life
I'm their case at least is largely bur
den, a thing to be endured, not to be
enjoyed. All this simply means that
the system needs toning up and each
and every function of the body needs
stimulating and strengthening. This
once accomplished, life again becomes
a joy and pleasure.
If your system Is in need of blood
cleansing tonic that will start the
whole machinery of the human frame
running smoothly and naturally it is
your evident duty to seek out and find
some tried, approved and safe remedy
that will do the work of cleansing the
blood and building up the tissue with
out at the same time leaving any in
furious effects.

WASHINGTON, April 6.--The mill
tary court of inquiry which during the
last year has been investigating the

the affray could not have occurred.
and that if they had performed their
duty Immediately after the shooting
some of the guilty men would have
been discovered. Fourteen men be-

1t has been suggested from the

could be secured it is said the district
lying half way between Macy street
and the East Main street bridge would
be the most advantageous generally.

Two Yer. Old Iadlns

We have heard great deal lately about long=iiYed people, but it Is prob able that the oldest two people in the world today are Frau Dutkievitz and another old lady named Babavaslika.
 The former lives at Posem. in Prus- sian Poland. and was born on Febru- ary q. f7S5. She is therefore one hundred and twenty-five years old. The latter. however. is nine months her senior having been born in May, 17S4.
 She Is sill fairly hale old woman, and for nearly one hundred years worked in the fields. Her descendants number close on 100. and these now make her a joint allowance. She lives at the village Of Bayelsko. whose neighboFheed she has never quilted during the whole of her long life. She remembers events which happened at the beginning Of last century much more clearly than those of the last 10 years.-Dundee Advertiser.

 She did so anr in a few moments fire engines came from several direc. tions, all laden with fremen, of course but alas her fance was not among them, and more than that all the fire men were angry. and before she knew what had happened she was taken to a magistrate. who proceeded to make the course of true love run unsmoothlv by sending her to prison for a month in spite of her tears and protests that she thought 1t would be simple way of bringing her fiance to her side.
