Now is the time to attend to your personal condi¬
tion in preparation for the change to spring sea¬

tired out from overwork, if your blood has become

create a good appetite, and give your whole system
tone and strength.

think very highly of Hood’s Sarsaparilla. We both
took it last sprinr. It did us a great deal of good
and we felt better through the hot weather than
ever before. It cured my wife of sick headache,
from which she has suffered a great deal, and re¬
lieved mo of a dizzy, Urei fc. 1 ng. I think every
one ought to take something to purify the blood be¬
fore the hot weather comes on, and wc shall cer.
tainly take Hood's Sarsaparilla this spring."—

“ Oh, girl with the jewelled fingers, 1

What are your jewels and what are your
laces worth to you if, fashionable from undergoing the

poses on its devotees, and which are onduranee enough
to test the physical strength and

your health and become such a physical wreck,
as thousands do from causes ?
Under such circumstances you would
willingly give all your jewels and all your
laces to regain lost health. This you can do

The Spirit of Sacrifice.
The spirit of sacrifice cannot be too
highly valued. Its presence or absence
has always marked the difference be¬
tween the loving, sympathetic, cruel, hard, generous sel¬
and heroic man, and the
fish, and merccnery one. Human nature,
everywhere and always, bows in rever¬
ence before the spirit which inspires a
man to give up pleasure or advantage,
and object accept pain or outside deprivation of himself. for some This

men and women who endure hardship
without a murmur, and spend their lives
in joyful devotion to some good cause be¬
which they have at heart or to some
loved ones who are dearer to them than
their own private happiness.
A good conscience is to the soul what

A Spider-Web Telephone,
A gentleman was watching some spi.
ders, when it occurred to him to try what
effect the sound of a tuning fork would
have upon them. He suspected that they
would take it for the buzzing of a fly.
He selected a large, ugly spider, that had
been feasting on flies for two months.
The spider was at one end of its web.
Sounding the fork, the man touched a
thread at the other side, and w'atched the
result. Mt. Spider hud the buzzing
sound conveyed to him over bis tele¬
phone wires, but how was he to know on
which particular wire it the was web traveling?
He ran to the centre of very i
quickly, and felt all around until he
touched the thread against the other end
of which the fork was sounding; then,
taking another thread along, just as a
man would take an extra piece of rope,
he ran out to the fork and sprang upon
it. Then he retreated a little way, and
l°° k T at Tll< ‘ f °T T was P. uzzl ed.
He had expected to « nnd a buzzing fly.
He got. 0 n the fork again, and danced
with delight. Evidently the sound was
music to him.
Queer Patents.
One of the most original patents is an
automatic hath tub, which starts the hot
and cold water at a given moment in the
morning to which it has been set, main¬
tains exactly the right temperature of it
by graduating the flow of water, rings a
bell when all is ready, and, two minutes
later, suddenly drops the sleeper’s pillow
about a foot and turns him “chicken out. Amoflg hop¬
other odd inventions are
ples,” which walk the chicken right out
of trie garden when she tries to scratch;
“the bee moth excluder,” which auto¬
matically shuts up all the beehives when
the hens go to roost; “educatidnal bal¬
loon,” a toy balloon with a map of the
world on its surface; side-hill annihila-
tors,”—stilts to fit on the down hill legs
of a horse when lie is ploughing along a
side hill; and of the ‘‘hen surpriser,” laid a
device that drops the newly with egg in¬
through the bottom of the nest,
tent to beguile and wheedle the hen into
at once laying another.
Mere Flower Shows.
Nowadays, a house of mourning be¬
comcs ' on the day of the funeral, a sort
floral exhibition. * In many instances
the l )0rsous indulging m these displays
( . an i| [-afford the expense, as the unpaid
florist and undertaker can testify. It is
well enough to have a floral wreath or
cross, or a few cut flowers at a funeral,
The other day I attended a funeral, and,
although the deceased was a poor laborer
who had worked for a dollar and a half a
day, the flowers covering his casket must
have cost over a hundred dollars. It
would have been better to have given his
poor widow the money than spent it for
useless flowers. This is an evil that
should be remedied.
