=. 1t is no wonder that many are finding
the new medicinal combination, Hood S
Sarsaparilla before eating, Peptiron, a real
IRON tonic. after eating, and Hoods Pills as
needed, remarkably effective as course of
treatment for giving vitality, vigor and vim,
and increasing strength and endurance.
Among the medicinal substances that this
combination brings into cooperation are
such cleansers, tonics and digestives as
sarsapariila, nux, iron and pepsiu, whose
great merit has been fully established.
GOOD results from such combination, in
cases amenable to treatment, seem TO be
among the 'inevitables." The combination
is especially recommended for those who
are run down, whose blood is poor, because
OF impurity or lack of iron. whose nerves
are weak or unstrung, livers torpid or
sluggish. Try it.-AdUt.

of remarkable animal captured last
week by trapper on Long Island in
Bluehill bay. The animal was about the
size of fox, with fox body and bushy
tail, but with cat head-short nose and
ears. In color it was almost white, touched
with gray. Its feet We're like those Of
fox, but in walking, its tread was on its

it was vicious customer, and put up
good fight. What was it? No one who
