Spring , Medicine I There is no other season when good medicine is so much needed as in the Spring. The blood Is impure, weak and i Impoverished, condition indicated by pimples and other eruptions on the face and body, by deficient vitality, loss of appetite, lack of strength, and want of animation.

" Hood's SarsapariUa has been used In oar family for some time, and always with good results. Last sprint I was an run down and got a bottle of it, and as usual received great benefit." Miss Bzu&AM Botcx, Stowe, Vt. ' Hood's Sarsaparllla promise to uro and keeps tho promise. ODD FREAKS OF LIGHTNINQ. Sometimes It Slakes Flashlight Photo- graphs on Its Victim. One of the fantastic tricks which lightning plays upon its unfortunate victims, is a kind of flashlight photog raphy. There are numerous instances f this which are more or less "authen ticated," but they seem almost too wonderful to be believed. One of these Is of a young man In New Jersey who was struck by lightning and was taken In an ambulance to the hospital at once. There seemed to be no wound except a small mark on the back, but while the doctors and nurses were ex amining him a picture began to devel op on the skin. Soon before the won dering eyes of the watchers appeared a perfect picture of Christ nailed to the cross. The explanation is that on the wall opposite the bed on which the . young man lay was the picture which was reproduced on his skin. - Another instance la of a man who was struck by lightning, and on his chest were red marks, resembling the tree, with all its branches, under which the man was standing when he was killed. From France comes the story mt a peasant girl who was driving a cow from the pasture when she was overtaken by a storm, and she and the cow took refuge under the tree. A bolt f lightning killed the cow and stunned the girl. When she recovered con-' sciousness she found on her chest a picture of the cow she had been driv ing. .-. The chatelaine of the castle of Bena tonnalre was sitting in a chair in her salon when the chateau was struck by lightning. She was uninjured, but on the back of her dress was found a per fect copy of the chair on which she had been sitting, down to its minutest rnament These are a few of the many strange pranks which lightning plays upon us. Chicago Chronicle. He Rides a Wheel. "Look out for the man riding along side a car on a bicycle," remarked Central detail detective the other day. "The street : car workers have a new dodge, and the man on the bicycle Is part of the game. He's the 'outside man,' as it were.' "A grafter gets on the car and the car Is followed by the guy on the wheel. When 'the goods' a watch or scarfpln is taken by the fellow on the car . he throws it to his pal on the wheel, who gets away with it. If the guy on the wheel sees trouble ahead on the car he gets away, but not without first getting the stuff from his partner if he can. "It's a slick game, and puzzled us for a while, but we tumbled to it by recognizing one of the crooks on a wheel." Chicago Inter Ocean. Self-love sometimes borrows the face of honest seal, Hall. , Columbus, Ohio, May 19, 1903. Some four years ago I was suffering from impure blood and a general run down condition of the system. I had no appetite, was losing flesh, and had an all- one tired feeling that made me misera le. I began the use of S . S. S., and after taking seven or eight bottles my skin was cleared of ail eruptions and took on a ruddy, healthy glow that assured me that tny blood had been restored to its nor mal, healthy condition. My appetite was restored, as I could eat anything: cut be- Afore me, and as I regained my appetite ' I increased in -weight, and that ' tired feel ing" which worried me so much disap- peared, and I was once again my old self. I heartily recommend S. S. S. as the ' best blood trarificr and tonic made, and strongly advise its use to all those in need ot suca medicine. victor Stubbins. Cor. Bsxthman and Washington Avea.

I told my father, and as no seemed to think It would be too bad for me to be publicly punished, he gave me the $5.

Lady the First Time She Saw Them. - A lady who saw forks used for the first time at a dinner of Henry III. of France records her "impressions" of the occasion. Henry had in 1547 been tendered a magnificent reception in. Venice. At this entertainment forks were used. The royal guest observed them with much interest and immedi ately Introduced them to the French court. - It seems from the account of the lady, who had never used them be fore, that some others were in the same predicament. She writes: 'They never touched the meat with their fingers, but with forks, which tney carried to their mouths, bending their necks and bodies over their plates. "There were several salads. These they ate with forks, for It is not con sidered proper to touch the food with the fingers. However difficult it may be to manage It, it is thought better to put the little forked instrument in the mouth than the fingers. The artichokes, asparagus, peas and beans were brought. It was a pleasure to watch them try to eat these with their forks, for some, who were less aaroit than the others, dropped as many on their plates and on the way to the mouth as they were able to get to their mouths. -"Afterward a great silver basin and pitcher of water were brought, and the guests washed their hands, though It seems as if there would not be much scent of meat and grease on them, for they had touched their food only with those forked instruments."

"Very true, dear," replied the other, but you know her only brother died three months ago." - 'What has that got to do with the color of her hair?" asked the first speaker, : v : ; ' 'Why, don't you understand?" re joined her friend.
