To many people Spring and its
mean an aching head, tired limbs and
throbbing nerves. Just as the milder
weather comes, the strength begins to
wane and “That Tired Feeling” is the
complaint of all.
The reason for this condition
found in the deficient quality of the
blood. During the winter, owing to
various causes, the blood becomes
loaded with impurities and loses its
richness sad vitality. Consequently,
as soon as the bracing effect of cold
air is lost, these is languor and lack
of energy. The cure will be found in
purifying and enriching the blood.
Hood’s Sarsaparilla is the greatest
and best spring medicine because it is
the greatest and best blood purifier,

A FEEDING EXPERIMENT.
INVESTIOATIN0 THE NUTRITIVE
VALUE OF FOODS.
The Government Making an Kflort
to Discover a More Wholesome
and Economical Dietary System.
7 HE last Congress appropriated
810,000 for the purpose of
investigating the nutritive
values of foods for human
beings, tho special purpose in view,
says tho Washington Star, being to
suggest to the people of this country
a more wholesome and economical
dietary system. The Department of
Agriculture has charge of the work,
which is to cover as far as possible all
classes—rich and poor, white and
colored people, rural and city people.
Agents are instructed that they must
exercise great care and tact.
Examinations will be made in a
general way of the food supply of
various localities. It will be ascer¬
tained what foods are purchased by
people of different occupations and
how much they pay for them. The
question where these foods are most
economical and best suited to the con¬
dition of the consumers will be a point
of inquiry. Already work has been
started at the Maine State' College,
near Bangor ; University of Tenuessee,
Knoxville; University of Missouri, at
Columbia; Purdue University, at La¬
fayette, lnd. ; Middletown and Hart¬
ford, Conn. ; Hull House, head¬
quarters of a charitablo organization
in Chicago; experiment station at
New Brunswick, N. J., and in New
York City. It will soon be taken up
also in Charleston, S. 0. ; at the ex¬
periment station at Auburn, Ala.,
and at the Tuskegeo Institute, Tuske
gee, Ala.
Students at the educational institu¬
tions mentioned will afford exceptional
opportunities for study. To begin
with they will bo studied under
ordinary conditions am} furnished
with customary diet. Thus an oppor¬
tunity will be afforded for com¬
parisons, for example, between New
England college boys, fed on pork
and beans, with youths of tho same
age and condition in tho South, con¬
suming bacon and hoe-cako. After¬
ward, selected groups of students will
be subjected to what arc callod “feed¬
ing experiments.” Dietaries will bo
mado up for them such as aro deemed
most wholesome and economical, and
they will bo restricted to a stated bill
of faro for a period ot long enough to
mako it possiblo to draw conclusions.
An average gain in health and strength
would demonstrate tho superiority of
the dietary, while those of weight or
physical derangement would go to
prove the opposite.
Work of tho same kind has just
been begun with studonts at the
Tuskegeo Institute, all of whom ore
colored. As in tho case of the white
boys, tho foods and liquids consumed
will bo weighed. At Suffield, Conn.,
experiments havo been commenced
with selected families of farmers. In
some localities the inquiry will not he
carried farther than to find out what
foods are in tho market and what is
consumed by typical households, with
notes of expenditures for edibles by
such households. In other places, as
at, the experiment stations in New
Brunswick, N. J., and Auburn, Ala.,
where there are laboratories, chemical
analyses of samples will bo made. At
tho same time all waste will be saved
and weighed carefully, in order to de¬
termiue the proportion thrown away.
Having obtained the consent of a
fami , b to be investigated the Govern¬
ment agent will first make his inven¬
tory of tlie stock of food on hand in
the house. He will weigh everything,
not trusting to purchasing weights,
Tea, coffee, salt, spices, beof extract
and condiments will not bo taken into
account. Beef tea made from beef ex
tract is a stimulunt, but it is not nour
ishing to any extent, Beer will be
considered as food, and likewise spirits.
Whatever is bought during tue term
of the trial will be subject to like
treatment, and at tho end another in¬
ventory will bo taken, the stock re¬
maining being subtracted from the
total. Choice will not bo mado of
families in whiclr there are invalids,
aged persons, greatly oversized or uli¬
dersized individuals, or excessive
users of stimulants.
In New York City tho work is being
conducted through the Society for the
Improvement of the Condition of the
Poor. Families aro selected by the
advice of tho society, choice being
made of those which aro most respec
table and reliable. Samples are sent
to Professor Atwater at Middletown,
Conn., for analysis.
Some of the results already obtained
are quite striking. One family inves
tigated was so poor that its members
had not decent clothes. The mother,
for lack of a respectable dress, was a
prisoner in her own house and unable
to appear on the street. Yet that
household, which comprised six (ter
sons, spent 814 a week for raw food,
Another case was that of a students’
boarding house, where the quantity of
food material wasted was equal to the
amount eaten. It is expected that
the evidence obtained respecting the
waste of food by rich people will be
surprising.
Eventually the Department of Agri
culture will issue a report that will be
widely distributed pointing out con
spxcuous errors in the diet of the peo¬
ple, and making recommendations.
The community at large will go on do
ing just as it has done hitherto, but a
few intelligent persons will become
interested in the subject and the ideas
will gradually spread. This has been
the experience in similar researches
directed to the economical feeding of
animals. Adopting the suggestions
with reluctance, many farmers and
stock raisers are now using with con
sideiable saving the rations recom
mended oa a scientific basis by the
Qovprnmpnt. It tali os a good ■while tq
saturate tlie popular mind with a new
idea.

Tlie Editor’s Wood Pile.
We were engaged tho other dny in
piling wood in tho cellar and our
thoughts ran in tho direction of tho
amount of labor expended in cutting,
preparing, hauling, and getting the
wood to the stove or fireplace. First
tho trees are felled in the forest, then
tho trunk und limbs are cut into four
foot lengths and split and piled; then
hauled out to tho roadside or slid
down the mountain; then hauled off
to market; then delivered at the
houses of customers ; then thrown into
the cellar or woodshed; then sawed;
split; then piled; then carried
into the house and placed in a wood
box; then burned. Eleven times at
least the wood is handled and rehau
died, about half of which labor falls
upon tho seller and the other half
upon the consumer, It is about the
same with coal. The original article
is of less value than the labor re¬
quired to get it into practical use by
the consumer. And so it is largely with
almost everything that goes into gen
eral consumption. Labor is tho great
element of cost in human existence,

A Wonderful Sensitive Plant.
An incident related by the author of
“The Pearl of India,” iu his descrip¬
tion of the flora of Ceylon, is almost
uncanny, although we are assured that
it is true. It is about the mimosa, or
sensitive plant, and makes oue almost
wonder whether the plant has intelli
getioe.
The doctor, one of the characters of
the book, while sittiug with the family
ou the broad piazza, which formed the
front of the bungalow of a coffee
plantation, recognized a thrifty sensi¬
tive plant, utul it was made tho subject
of remark. He called his young
daughter of 11 years from the house.
■’Lena,” said he, “go and kiss the
mimosa.”
The child did so, laughing gleefully,
and came away. The plant gave no
token of shrinking from contact with
tho pretty child.
“Now,” said the host, “will you
touch the plant?” approached
Bising to do so, we it
with one hand extended, and before it
had come fairly in contact tho nearest
spray and leaves wilted visibly.
“The plant knows tho child,” said
the doctor; “but you are a stranger.”
An Electric Swindle.
A French fakir has lately been doing
a “l-iiul office” business in selling rat
powder that, while perfectly harmless,
was sudden death to the rats. In order
to convince the skeptical tho man first,
of ail powdered a slice of bread with
the stuff and ate apart of it. Then he
put tho balance under a glass chko,
where a rat was in captivity. The rat
went to eat the bread and instantly
fell ilead. At half a franc a box the
powder went off like hot-cakes and the
lucky proprietor was in a fair way to
make his fortune. But the French
police, very active in detecting and
punishing fraud, “got onto the game”
and found the rat powder was nothing
but ordinary sugar. They also discov¬
ered that the glass sample case was
connected with a powerful electric bat¬
tery, and the moment the rat touched
the bread the current was turned ou
and liis death was instantaneous.

Since tlie War Closed.
(From, the Ashtabula, Ohio, Beacon .)
Mr. Fred Taylor was born and brought up
near Elmira, N. Y., and from there enlisted
in the 189th regiment, N. Y., V. I., with
which he wont through the war and saw
much hard service. Owing to exposure and
hardships during the service, Mr Taylor con¬
tracted chronic diarrhoea, from which he has
suffered now over thirty years, with abso¬
lutely no help front physicians. By nature
lie was a wonderfully vigorous man. Had
he not been, his disease and the experiments
of the doctors had killed him long ago.
Laudanum was the only thing which afford¬
ed him relief. lie had terrible headaches,
his nerves were shattered, he could not sleep
an hour a day on an average, and he was re¬
duced to a skeleton. A year ago he and his
wife sought relief in a change of climate and
removed to Geneva, Ohio; Finally, but the change in
health came not. on the recom¬
mendation ofF. J. Heffner, the leading drug¬
gist of Go..evu, who was cognizant of similar
Vlisrs which l'ink Fills had cured, Mr. Taylor
was persuaded to try a box. "As a pills,”says drowning
man giasps a straw, so 1 took tlie
Mr. Taylor, "but with no more hope ol
rescue. But after thirty years of suffering
and fruitless search for relief I at last found
it in Dr. Williams’ Fink Pills. The day afterI
D ok the flist pills I commenced to feel better,
and when I had taken the first box I was in
fact a new man.” That was two months ago.
Mr. Taylor has since taken more of the pills
and his confidence progress is in steady, them. He and has he regained has the

as in bis is coming back to his
