Sarsaparilla
I* » peculiar medicine, and Is carefully pro
pared by competent pharmacists. The com
bination and proportion of Sarsaparilla, Dan
delion, Mandrake, Yellow Dock, and other
remedial agent* is exclusively peculiar to
Hood’s Sarsaparilla, giving It strength and
curative power superior to other prepa
rations. A trial will convlnco-.you of Its
gTeat medicinal value. Hood’s Sarsaparilla
Purifies the Blood
creates and sharpens the appetite, stimulates
tho digestion, and gives strength to every
organ of tho body. It cures the most severe
cases of Scrofula, Salt Rheum, Bolls, Pimples,
and all other affections caused by Impure
blood, Dyspepsia, Biliousness, Headache,
Kidney and Liver Complaints, Catarrh, Rheu
matism, and that extreme tired feeling.
"Hood’s Sarsaparilla, lias helped me more
for catarrh and Impure blood than anything
also I ever used.” A. Ball, Syracuse, N. Y.
Creates an Appetite
“ I used Hood's Sarsapariha to cleansp my
blood and tone up my system. It gave mo a
good appetite and seemed to build me over.”
E. M. Hal*, Lima, Ohio.
”1 took Hood's Sarsaparilla for cancerous
humor, and it began to act unlike anything

Senator VoorLees has been figur

has concluded that the democrats will
carry the s’ate by f'om 10,000 to 15.000

the rule by which he obtained this
result, but it is probably to be found
somewhere in the political arithine-

was to so ably fill for twenty-eight
years, and which was to give him a
wond-wide fame. The ceremo-iies

brought out the faot that the present
administration is the only one that
has ever taken any practical steps to
break up polygamy, although the
Republican party has since I860
regularly adopted a plank in
their party platform denouncing
it as a relic of barbarism. It re

take tho first steps towards the ex

The Good Work Of Xr. Smith’s
Saako Bite Caro.
A correspondent of the Willacoo-
ohee News writes as follows in re
gard to some wonderful oures In
Coffee county, made by Mr. J. T.
Smith’s snake bite medicine.
Mr. J. T. Smith’s snake medicine
is doing good work and giving entire
satisfaction to those who are the un^
fortunate victims of poisonous rep
tiles. The little girl of Mr. Henry
Minix was some time ago bitten by
a snake and was in a very dangerous
condition. Mr. Minix as soon as
possible securtd a bottle of the snake
medicine and gave it to ids daughter,
which, in a reasonable length of time
relieved her pains, and at this writing
is well. Mr. lV^nix thinks this snake
medicine saved the life of his child.
Also the little son of Mr. Benjamin
Smith was bitten a few days ago by
a rattlesnake and Air. Smith’s snake
medicine being handy, was given to
the boy and at last accounts was doing
well—feeling but very little (lain. Mr.
Smith lias had liis medicine patented
and in a few weeks will be able to
place the same on the market, ana
we predict will find a ready sale for
nil the medicine lie can manufacture.
Mr. Smith lias effected several cures
of rattlesnake bite in his neighbor
hood, and can get the testimonials
of those who have been cured to prove
the virtues of his medicine.

Mr. Smith’s wonderful discovery, and
