pirts of sugar raised the aggregate about
$6,400,000 at New York alone above that

Probably the imports began to exceed the

From the New York World.

an ordinary rawhide hamestring, returned
and, before his mother’s eyes, made his
{ireparations for death. He fastened the
eather to the ceiling with a large nail, cut
a slit in the leather large enough to admit
bis head, got up in a high chair and jumped.
Just before the leap he said:
“I have spited you now, mamma.”
His neck was broken. His mother saw
him as he made the fatal spring.

MEDICAL.
The Portrait ot a Lady
Painted on paper by the pen of such a novelist as Henry James will
do very well, but the real portrait of a real lady is a very different
affair. Has she pimples on her face, or blotches? Is her complex
ion sallow? If so, the conscientious artist in this realistic age will
have to put them all down. The lady’s remedy for her pimples,
blotches and sallowness is the great vegetable rem
edy for the blood. There can be no beauty where
there is no health, whereas the most commonplace
features are rendered piquant and interesting by a beautiful com
plexion restores strength and vigor to the system, gives tone
to th e organs, and cures all nervous disorders.
The potency of this wonderful blood medicine is unquestionable,
and yet, powerful as it is, it may be taken by the feeblest child and
by the most delicate female. It has no rival in the wide field which
it covers. Treatise on Blood and Skin Disease* Free#
