SPRING FEVER

(BY Dr.. VALENTINE Mor1.)
(BY DR.. VALENTINE MorT.)

At this time of year most people
suffer from what we term 9 spring
fever" because Of a stagnant con-
dition of the blood, because of the
toxins (poisons stored up within
the body during the long winter.
We eat too much meat, with little
or no green vegetables.
Bloodless people, thin, anemic
people, those with pale cheeks and
lips, who have a poor appetite and
feel that tired, worn or feverish
condition in the spring time of the
year, should try the refreshing tonic
powers of a good Alternative and
blood purifier. Such q tonic as
druggists have sold for fifty years,
is DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery. It is q standard remedy
that can be obtained in tablet or
liquid form. Made without alcohol
from wild roots and barks.
Send ten cents to Dr.. Pierce's In.
valids Hotel, Buffalo, N. Y, for trial
package Of tablets.
Davenport, Iowa-"Dr. Pierce g med.
icines have been giving my family the
utmost satisfaction for the past fifteen
years. I have taken Golden Medical
Discovery off and on whenever in q
rundown state or in need Of tonic,
and one bottle each time restored me to
perfectly healthy condition.
"We think there are no medicines
equal to DR.. Pierce's, for they never
once failed US and we take the greatest
pleasure in recommending these remedies
to our friends. "-S. P. PLUMB, 1866

JEWS NOT EASILY CONVERTED
Sermon to Which They Were Annually Forced to Listen Failed of Its
 Purpose.

In John Evclyn's diary of January !, 1645. there is notation of pecu- liar ceremony which seems to have been of annual occurrence at Rome. It was a sermon preached to con- pulsory congregation of Jews, with view to their conversion. MT. Evelyn says "they are constrained to sit till the hour is done. hut ii Is with so much malice in their countenances, splitting, humming. coughing and mo- tion, that 1t Is almost impossible they should hear a word from the preacher. A conversion Is very rare."
 The Zionist movement, which has gone on for years and received new impetus by the changes made in mid dle Europe as a result of the world war, was outlined in poem written by Robert Browning during his resi- dence In Italy, probably about the mid dle of the nineteenth century. He calls 1t Holy Cross Day."
