TYRANT MORPHINE.

How the Queen of Cerebral StlmulnutsEnslaves Its Victims.

Notwithstanding all that has beenaid and written about opium and thevils resulting from its indiscriminatese, the habit still prevails, especiallymong •women, to the extent that maye said to threaten the very foundationsf our social system. Begun in manynstances by the family physician whodministers a hypodermic injection ofnorphine (one"of the most insidiousorms of opium) to allay some acute orhronie pain, the patient is captivated)y its medicinal effects. The feeling>f exhilaration and freedom from suf-ering that follows its introductionnto the system is so great that thelose will be repeated again and again.

Soon only a very slight pretext iseeded, until at last the habit is formed

and the victim of the syringe will r«-ort to any means to procure what now>ecomes necessary to her very oxist-ence. Should the physician discoverhe danger and decline to indulge theancy of the victim, she will procure alypodermic syringe and administer thedoses herself. "1 have known," said airooklyn physician, "a lady whosewhole side was a mass of sores fromlypodermic injections of morphine.")r. Skene, of Brooklyn, in speaking of

morphine, said: "Its effect is thesame whatever the way it is adminis-ered. Hypodermic injections, how-ver, are more prompt in their action;lence more exhilarating and fascinating

0 the patient. In acute and chronicdiseases there are opium-eaters whoare so in a sort of legitimate way, butthat physicians should bo exceedinglycareful in the use of the drug is a pointhat is urged in all lectures touchingon opium in its various phases. Mor->hine is the cjueen of cerebral stiniu-ants when given in the proper quanti-ses. It differs in one important re-spect from alcohol—the more you takeof it the more your system can endure.A man can get drunk on the samequantity of liquor without increasingt, but with opium he would requiremore each time. It is this peculiaritywhich makes it so dangerous. Half a

rain has proved fatal, yet some opiumeaters have gone as high as twenty tothirty grains in a day. Morphineshould never be used hypodermicallyexcept In cases where the pain is so se-TCIO Llltil lb io DOCCODAIJ to g»TO tho p«

tient immediate relief, or where thestomach refuses to retain anything, iin a fatal and painful disease, where;he patient takes opium of necessity,Dut prefers it hypodermically, and thedoctor indulges the fancy, it is all right.But where recovery is possible a hypo-dermic injection should never be used.3ne important point in the morphinehabit is that victims will go to anyxtreme to procure the drug and

they lose all moral sense of right orwrong when it touches that subject."

"This fact is well illustrated in theAllowing case," said another physician:A lady in a distant city, connected

with one of the oldest and best familiesn this country, was suffering from a

disease which her physician could not,or at least did not, cure, but gave hermorphine to keep her comfortable.The habit grew until she took eight toten grains a day. Her friends nnallysent her to me, and affer relieving herof her trouble I began the process ofcuring the opium habit. At last sheMcame, as we both thought, entirelycured, but soon a slight craving for itreappeared and grew until, unKnownto me, she succeeded in getting a sup-ply, and was soon as bad as ever. Thesupply was cut off, the desire was suc-cessfully combated; and a year passedwithout her touching it or experiencingany desire for it. One day she calledwith a little bronchitis, I gave her aprescription in which was a little pare-goric. This she called for again andagain, taking larger doses each time,until she was on the verge of re-estab-lishing the old habit. I discovered this.forbade the use of the medicine, andshe again recovered. A year or twoafterward, when I bad almost forgot-ten her, she came to me with a sprainedjoint. I gave her a liniment contain-ing a small quantity of opium. Whenshe discovered this she immediately be-gan taking the liniment internally, andagain the thirst for the drug was awak-ened. This was detected, and when Iupbraided her for deceiving me shesaid that I was as much in the wrongas she was for giving her such a lini-ment. On all other points she washonest and truthful, but in this partic-ular respect she would do anything toget the drug she loved so much."

"Morphine," said Dr. Francia Quin-lan, of this city, "is an alkaloid ofopium, and the one most extensivelyused. The preparation used is a Ma-jendie solution containing sixteengrains to an ounce of water. The doseis about seven drops, and the effectslast from two to three hours. Admin-istered hypod«rmicatly, it« effects arefelt at once, and is consequently moresought after by opium users. Its effectis terrible. The victims lose all senseof right or wrong, and will steal toprocure it. One of my patients, an En-glish lady, wife of a prominent engin-eer, living in an up-town flat, had asyringe of her own. She broke theneedle, and I was called in to give hera hypodermic injection. I found herdull, torpid -Mid nerveless, and pre-pared my syringe, when she said: 'Ex-cuse me, doctor, but I will take it my-self.1 Thinking it a matter of delicacy1 acquiesced, and she retired. She re-turned in a few minntes as active aspossible, her eyes bright and her man-ner as animated as ever. She was 'sosorry she had broken my needle.' Shehad stolen it, and put her own brokenone in my case. Her husband camenext day with a new one, but ofcourse I refused to receive it Thehabit is a frightful curse," sadly endedthe doctor, "and numbers some of ourmost brilliant society ladies among itsTictims."—N. Y. Telegram.

The Wrong Pour.

Major Urown, B Virginian, and a alsoForty-niner," once illustrated the valuef Dnvy Crockett's advice, " Be sureour rijrht then go ahead." The major'sisobedience to the Texan's proverb fur-islied the illustration.During the gold fever of 1849 a com-

any of Virginians, or whom Hie majorwas one, started for California.

After they had crossed the backbonef Hie Sierras, the major and five men

vere selected to go ahead and make ar-angementsfor the the temporary accoin-uxlution of the company.One da}', as they wure about to resume

he Journey, the major found that hisony was too lame to travel. After cou-ultation, his comrades agreed to go on,nd leave him to await the arrival ot thelain body with the wagons." I had a lonesome time of it," said the

lajor, relating the story, "and I waselighled when on the second day of mynforced solitude I saw three men ap-roMching. But my delight was changed

o anger as they drew near—for I discov-red that one of the men was leading mylony.

"'What are you doiDg with that pony ?'asked indignantly." 'He belongs to us,' said the man," You are very cool to catch my pony,

nd then claim him as yours,' I an-wered:

"They all protested that I was mis-uken.

" 'No, gentlemen,' said, 'I am not mis-.iken. I have had that pony longnouirh to know every hair on his body.'"Oue of the men pointed out a scar on

he foreleg, and asked, 'Has jour ponyucli a sear as that? '

"'My pony has that scar.'" 'Well,' rejoined another, 'is this your

iiriat ? '" 'No, but it is an ea«y matter to take

ne lariat off a pony's neck, and put an-thei on.'

" 'Have you looked for your pony!rou'd better search and see if you haveost your pony before you claim anotherlan's.'"I saw they were not going to yield,

o I said firmly, 'Y'ou are three to one,ut if you think I am going to submitaniely to this outr-ige, you are mistaken.Tou may overpower me, tiut you will notII leave this place alive.'"They saw that I was determined, and

ne of them, speaking very mildly, ?aid:"My friend, you areeert.unly mistaken

'nil pony is ours; we've had him t\.rnonths. You'd better look round andee if jou can't find your pony some-vherH in tlie basin "

•i pretended to take their advice, butept within reach, resolved, if they un-ertook to carry or the nonv to open

lire on them with my revolver. Well,ir, I hadn't gone a dozen rods, wbeu,Huidinjt behind a clump of bushes 1 sawny own abominable pony, lariat, scar,nd all! I never felt so mean in miire."

From the Philadelphia Times.A House of Colored •' Emotional" Wor-

shipers.

The colored population of Philadel-l>ia is increasing every year and this

own has now the largest colored popu-atlon of any northern city. Delaware,Maryland, Virginia and North Carolinacontribute the most, while South Caro-init and Georgia send many. While ajreat many improve the opportunities•ere afforded and seek material andlental betterment, a large number still

cling to their old superstitions, customsand traditions. Conjuring and the at-ainment of ends by the aid of "charms"

and fetishes are still firmly believed in asluring ante-bellum times. A down-town herb doctor or "gupherer" doesa very lucrative business in combiningthe offlcett of leech and medium andretailing "charms" at prices which arewithin the reach of the most humble ofiis callers.

In this city there is a colony of south-ern colored people who Clan together andook with suspicion Upon their neighbors

of like hue who are " Yankee." Theirworship in a little mission room, is char-acterized by all the emotional demon-stration that marks such gatherings southot Mason and Dixon's line.

Minister and congregation are alwaysn close sympathy and whenever the

former demonstrates the presence ofthe spirit by unusual fervor it is not anuncommon occurrence for the aisles totie thronged with shouting worshippers

i swaying, sipging, halt-frenzied inasiof humanity. Then some white-haliedprototype of Uncle Tom begins a lowchat, that could be scarcely a hymn,while the shouting members beat timewith their feet and join sobbingly in therefrain. And so far into the night thefantastic worship is continued, the soundsfrom within the close little room rin»iugtit strangely ou the still night air.Their games differ but little from their

mode of worship. Both are Intenselyemotional, and the songs of the games>eetn to have the same physical effct onthe participants as the wild spirit of wor-ship on a congregation.

A Chinese Funeral.

A lady friend in Tuhire City, Californiawrites us concerning a Chinese funeral,

uder date of June 14th., which we areeinpted to publish, believing it to be ofeDeral interest to our readers:" 1 attended a Chinese funeral last Sat-rday, and it was quite a novelty to me."hina Mary was » great favorite with allle celestials, and they made a greaterdo than ovei a common Chinaman, weent lirst and viewed the corpse. Sheasdicssed in lavender brocaded satin,nd her slippers they said cost $14. Theyuiied a brush and comb in the coffinwhich cost $150) with her. Just outsidef the door, on table9, were eatables ofvery kind, which were to be put on therave fot her to eat ou the way to heaven,uch as roast chicken, roast pig, (whole),ranges, candies, etc. They went throughieir pagan worship of cla>pinjr theirands and bowing and thumping theireads on the ground. Each oue wouldike a little china cup of tea and sprinklearound the Coffin, and many more sim-

ar performances. They hired liveryouches f»r the mourners. The band led

procession to the cemetery, whereghted tapers ware put on every Chineserave, about twenty-live of them, and in-ense burned constantly. Fifty dollarsorih of presents were placed on a firend burned. These presents were giveny friends, after her death, for this pur-ose. On the way to the cemetery 5,000

Fruit Eaters Need no Doctors.

We were struck recently by the remarksfa doctor friend of ours, who said no oneling will do so much to make people in-ependent of the medical profession asie duly tree use of fruit. He had noticedlat those farmer* in whose families fruit

vas regularly and largely consumed sel-iitn needed his services. We thoughtvhiit a pity that every farmer in tl e landuuld not be convinced ot these truths,t is a deplorable fact that farmers' rami-es do uot enjoy that robust health thatountry air and out door life, with plentyf exercise, should give.It is also a fact that, living on farms

bundant crops of the varied fruits, butery tew have plenty, and many never

lave any fruit, except it may be an occa-i,,n..i ..,.|.iv.. TUB Biaitdnrd food in a ma-uity of farmers' booses consists largelyf bread, butler anil meat (mostly porl'tied 111 great-e,) and, writers pnswy or cakes used, ii has lard III large proportion into composition ; and this food is eaten ateast twice, and, in many families, threeiines a day, year in and year out. Is itny wonder that they are not morelealthy, and that their prevailing diseasesre such as indicate an over consumptionI! greasy food. If fruits were expensive••difficult to rais., there would be somexcuse; but there is no part of the coun-ry without plenty of varieties adapted toti) soil and climate, and just such as aretted by nature to both nourish andleanse the body, and no more skill is re-11ired to grow them than to grow corn or

wheat.—Rural New Yorker.

A Baking Powder Trick.

All kinds of schemes and tricks are re-sortod to by unprincipled persons to ob-,aiu unfair advantages over their neigh-)ors. The latest and most dishonest ofhese that has come to our notice is oneiy which certain manufacturers of bakinglowder have sought to prejudice cousumis against the use of other brands thatlave an established reputation as the bestnd purest In the market, for the purposeif introducing their own. Their method,ve are iuformed, is to heat a can of bak-ig powder of a well known brand over aamp or stove, when, if there is a gns g veil

off having the odor of ammonia, the pow-ler is condemned as being made of am-nouia and unlit for use. The prejudicesf the unsuspecting are thus excited

against the biking powder submitted tohe so called test and the grocer who has

a quantity of it on hand suffers a seriousoss in consequence.

If the intelligent consumer will stop anoment to think, she will readily perceivehat this " test," if successful, proves noth-ng but the superiority of the baking pow-

der tested. The aim of all baking powdernakers is to produce an article that shallnost readily, under use, give off its leav-'iiintr few. The powder that does this withi moderate heat, at the same time evolvinghe largest quantity, is scientifically thelest.

There is probably not an article prepared for food that cannot be manipulatedio prove that something is wrong about it;mil when a person gnes into a kitchen orbefore a housekeeper who is not to be pre-sumed to understand chemical relations,and performs an experiment of even thesimplest character, it 19 not difficult to iinpress one that something awful is the mat-ter. As to baking powders, we could puggest a dozen tests that would be as ridicu-lous in giving a fair idea of their relativemerits to an uniustructed mind as the onehere mentioned.

The true domestic value of a bakingpowder consist In its purity, wholesome-ness, and leavening power. It is only thechemist with hiscliemical appliances, whocan determine tho>e qualities, scientific-ally and exactly. Aside from this, thelic t lest rbr a baking powder is to try it inmaking bread, and see which makes themost aud the best To this practical tesall the established brands have been putand housekeepers have very generallymade up their minds which they prefer,and the tricksters will find ultimately thaa brand that has been a household favorite for years wi'l not be displaced by reaBOH of any tricks which they may t-how

WHAT W i l l BE DONE ABOUT ITt

An insult was offered the Americanfliijf by the Mormons at Salt Lake City onJuty l'h that needs attention from ourgovernment.

Had the same tiling been done by ournext neighbors, Canada or Mexico, aputriotic tJirill would have run down thisnation's spine and its backbone wouldhave been elevated like unto a warlikefeline's long before this. Had a like in-sult been offered by any of our foreignfriends, England, Germany, France orSpain, you would have read ere this of ademand on the part of our governmentfor satisfaction.

But the officers of this nation appear tobe so busy doling out and quarreling overpatronage that they have not had time toread the dispatches from Salt Lake City.The Mormon church on July 4th orderedthe American tag at half-mast on allpublic buildings, ai:d half-mast it wasput and remained all day. And, further-more, the Mormon officials defend theiraction in insulting the flag of our coun-try, and impudently assert that freedomIs dead, because the law has been enforcedagainst them in respect to polygamy;because they are not upheld in crime un-der the plea of its being their religion.

THE EDSOff LIGHT.

Some eight months ago the COURIERofuY-e put in the Edison incandescent elec-tric light system, the first printing officein the state of Michigan to adopt it, andthe same has been a success since the dy-namo was first started up.

The post-office in this city was at thesame time supplied, taking the lead of allother post-offices in the state In that line,also.

The electric light company, of whichMr. C. B. Davison is the superintendent,has been admirably handled and con-ducted, giving the very best of satisfac-tion, furnishing 200 lights to patrons,with cotstant applications for lights thatCannot be supplied.

Saturday, being the Fourth- of July,Mr. Davisou prepared three lamps, onered, another white, the third blue, whichwere placed over the arch above the center of the COURIER building, which shoneout in patriotic colors. The electrolierin the front part of the post-office wasalso supplied with colored, lamps—red,white, blue and green, and a bank of va-rious colored lights were shown in thebasement of the COURIER building.

The peculiarity of these lights comefrom the fact that Mr. Davison did thecoloring upon the glass himself, and theywere probably the only ones that shoneout that night in all the nation. Col-ored shades have been prepared for theselights, but this is the first instance knownof the lamps being colored, and owing tothe peculiarity of the electric light thecoloring has to be done in a particularmanner, which Mr. Davison has studiedout, while attending to his duties as su-perintendent.

Many of the papers throughout thestate are speaking excellent words of encouragemeiit for the university ; praisingits grand work, its great power for good,and the fame it has attained for itself andthe commonwealth that has built it up.But in all this praise one thing shouldnot be overlooked, viz: The grand schoolsystem of Michigan. It is to that systemand its rapidly increasing perfection thatthe university owes much of its successThe schools of Michigan are growing inexcellency, and the university is itscrowning glory. The foundation waslaid years ago by one who buildcd withB broad liberality for those to come. Hisname should not be forgotten, but bekept green in the minds and hearts ofMichigan's students who are reaping thebenefit of his wisdom. The man we re-fer to is the late Hon. John D. Pierce, ofYpsilanti.

If the law is to be administered upontechnicalities instead of upon grounds ofjustice and right, then we have fallenupon evil times. We are moved to re-mark this upon reading how Mr. Itynd,of Adrian, was freed from prieon on a de-c i-ion of a certain judge, based on a tech-nicality, and immediately re-arrested forthe crime and held, while another manfor the same crime, was released on thesame ground, and couldn't be re-arrestedbecause another technicality was observedin his trial. And such Blush is calledjustice! Out upon it! Our laws shouldbe formed for the punishment of all of-fender!, and not for lawyers to split hairsover, or judges to raise pretexts to inlaidfriends from their Just deserts. Whatthe people need Is more Justice nnd lesslaw.

Hon. Don M. Dickinson has more powerat the White House throne than the en-tire congressional delegation oJ Michigan.Let's see.

A comical incident in the Illinois srn-atorial contest transpired at Watseka, Iil.May 20. Major Peters, editor of the"Republican" of that place, and republi-can member of the legislature from Iro-quois county, when assured of Logan'selection telegraphed the boys fromSpringfield: "Logan is elected, l'aintmy old home red." He meant, of course,for them to hold a jollification in Watse-ka, but the boys took him at his word,and showing the message to Mrs. Peters,gained her consent, and forthwith the en-tire male population turned out, and pro-curing the brightest red paint imagina-ble, painted the house, barn and out-houses scarlet—roof, chimney and all,not sparing even the fences and treetrunks. When the Major heard of theniiair he was the maddest mm in the na-tion, notwithstanding Login's election.

That bright woman, Gail Hamilton,speaking of the prohibitory movement asa third party issue, says: "What politicalprohibition has thus far done may besummed up: By methods not only an-tagonistic, but quarrelsome, sometimeseven to the borders of scurrility, by mis-representations that charity alone can at-tribute to misunderstanding, it has sham-ed its own prophecies, destroyed its ownharmony, depleted its own ranks, vitiatedits own laws, defeated the party fromwhich all prohibitory legislation hascome, enthroned the party by which nilprohibitory legislation has been opposed.This it can continue to do indefinitely;but no protestation on the part of itsleaders, and no delusion on the part of itsfollowers, can alter the fact that it isworking In the interests of intemperance,and not in the interests of temperance.No intelligent observer can fail to recog-nize its character and its tendency."

The Ann Arbor high school graduated 47students three of whom were colored— .MI HueObserver.

Yes, sir, that is a common occurrencehere. Hardly a class graduates butcontains more or less colored people. Atthe university three colored studentsgraduated this year, also, and we don'tsuppose that one among the number, whomarched up beside them, at either insti-tution, felt any the worse for so doing, orthat any of the audience thought uuv theless of them for so doing. We feel cer-tain that some of the audience felt proudof the fact that the colored race, so recentlyunder subjection, could furnish represent-atives whose abilities and scholarshipcould stand the test required of graduates.Hadn't the Chelsea Herald man bettertell the people where the school in thiscounty is whose graduates refused tomarch up and receive their diplomas be-cause a colored student was also entitledto one with them [Since writing theabove the Herald learns that Its assertionwas not a fact.]

Whitman,at the sanitary convention in Ypsilantilast week, upon the limitations and du-ties of boards of health, was so clear aidforcible that the author was requested, byvote of the convention, to draw up a lawto submit to the legislature at its nextsession, defining the duties and powers ofsuch boards.

The committee appointed by the vari-ous masonic organizations of the city,have accepted the new masonic temple,and it passed into their hands July 1st, tobe completed. Work is being rapidlypushed, and the various rooms begin toshow the uses for which they are designed. To complete and furnish it the tna("Otis expect to expend about $2,600.Everything will be elegant and tasty.

The youog ladies of Giand Rapids haveasked the common council of that cityto set aside certain hours for them to en-joy bathii g privileges. That's right.Public baths ought to be established byevery city and village located so that theycan be established, and certain hours de-voted to each sex. Public baths wouldbe better than medicine for many of thedread diseases that destroy the humanfamily- We all know—or should know—that "cleanliness Is next to Godliness."

The Ypsilanti Commercial pays an AnnArbor boy the following compliment:"The seminary mourns the loss of Prof.Volland. He came here three yeaisagofresh from college studies. He has made adecided impression upon the minds andhearts of his associate teachers and hispupils, aa well as our citizens who havehad tht" good fortune of his acquaintanceas being a young man of great promisein his chosen profession. Grand Rapidsgets a tair, square compensation in ex-change for robbing it of an admired prin-cipal to fill a chair in the normal.1'

At Adrian.

Company A appeared at the T. & A.. A.depot on the morning of the Fourth de-termined to do themselves and Ann Ar-bor credit at Adrian. The splendid pal-ace car accommodations furnished by thecompany only added to their enthusiasm,and they arrived at Adrian in fine spirits.In the procession the company weregiven the "right of line.1' There were250 troops in the other companies present,making in all about 300 soldiers. MnjorSoule of the university was acting adju-tant. After the procession the companywis hospitably provided for. The shambattle in tho afternoon was well con-ducted. Our boys held the skirmish lineand their promptness on all occasionswas the cause of much remark by thespectators. The dress parade In the even-ing was a pleasant sight. All the sixcompanies present showed excellent drill.By a mistake as to the time of leaving,the company and most of the visitorsfrom Ann Arbor missed the returningtrain, but luckily the regular train atMilan was late and connection was made,and the boys arrived home well pleasedwith the day and re idy to go again.

CliriRtian Frey a German and well-to-do farmer of Northfield township, madea sad day for his family on the Fourth.He administered unto himself enoughparis-green to have killed a whole regi-ment of men, and died in a short timeafterward in great agony. At first thecause of his sudden death was not known,and a messenger was sent to Ann Arborfor the coroner. Sunday morning cor-oner Sullivan and Dr. George went outand held an inquest and the poison wasfound in his stomach, which could onlyhave been self-administered. The state-ment is made that his home affairs werenot always of the most happy nature, andthat he was subject to spells of greatmenial depression. It was thought thatin one of these spells he took the fataldose. He leaves a wife and two or threechildren.

The P. 0 .

Some of the papers round about willhave their say on the post-ofliee business,and here are two quotations on the AnnArbor change:

The Adrian Record remarks:The appointment of Edward Duffy, of Ann

Arbor, to be postmaster of thai city, givesrepublicans satisfaction, or as much of it asthey feel at sot-lug any republican " walk tueplank " In favor of a democrat. Duffy Is•one of the boys," and they could alwaysget 125 of him at any time for a democraticblow out, and then see him walk In the pro-cession carrying one of the torches his moneyhad bought.

This is from the Lansing Republican:Edward Duffy Is the new civil service re-

form pos masier at Ann Arbor, made so bythe grace of President Cleveland, to the greatdiscomfiture of such old-time democrats asex-Senator Richmond. E B. Pond and others,J. C. Knowltou, who was suspended for "offenslve partisanship," was an efficient publicofficial,but the fact that lie •• rallied 'roundthe flag, boys," when the Blalne train passedthrough Ann Arbor last fall, was consideredsufficient reason for the appointment ol ademocratic'•civil service reformer "In bitplace. Why should the bends of the variousgovernmental departments I ng«r enact thep»ru of sneakli g hypocritesT If they wantthe offices let them plan t themsel ves squarelyon the democratic doctrine of " to the victorbelongs ihe spoils," and go right along In thework of making removals. Just as they havebeen doing. Nearly 40,000 changes have beenmade under the bald-faced He of "offensivepartisanship." Is It not about time to getback to the bed-rock of truth ? There havenot been so many removals In the samelength of time In any administration duringthe pant 40 years. Surely this Is civil servicereform with a vengeance.

Why is it that the trade that used to go to Detroit and other citiesto buy their clothing buy now only of The Two Sams?

Why is it that the farmers of the County are now trading atThe Two Sams?

How does it come that the workingmen of Ann Arbor keep thestore of The Two Sams constantly crowded?

These are questions asked by every good merchant in Ann Arbor,They wonder how it can be done, and are at a loss to find out.

We answer by saying, that the strictly One Price Business of theTwo Sams is the cause of their success.

The Hot Weather

Of mid-summer lias a weakening effect,

both upon body and mind. You feel ab-

solutely incapable of doing; any nrduous

work, and even light duties are perform-

ed languidly and unwillingly. This low

state of tbe system causes even greater in-

firmity, and gives opportunity for serious

disease to gain a foot-hold. In this con-

dition the system is quick to respond to

the reviving, quickening, and strengthen-

ing effects ot Hood's Sar8aparillH, which

purifies the blood, regulates the digestive

organs, aud infuses fresh life and vigor

into every portion of the body. People

who have taken it write us, saying: "It

puts new life right into me." "Itmakes

me young again." Reader, if you suffer

from summer weakness, try Hood's Sarsa-

paiilla. 100 doses $1.
