Eat Thia 1b the complaint of thousands at this season. They have no appetite; food floes not relish. They need the toning up of the stomach and digestive organs, which a course of Hood's Sarsaparilla will give them. It also purifies and enriches the blood, cures that distress after eating and internal misery only a dyspeptic can know, creates an appetite, overcomes that tired feeling and builds up and sustains the whole physical system. It so prompt ly and efficiently relieves dyspeptic symp toms and cures nervous headaches, that it seems to have almost " a magic touch." nJood's Sarsaparilla Is the best in fact the One True Blood Purifier.

At 1:05 o'olock on the afternoon of Friday, March 19, says the Portland Telegram, Thomas Woolery, a merohant ef lone, Morrow oounty, this state, at tempted suioide by shooting himself in the head, while in his room at tbe Perkins hotel. Dr. A. C. Panton was at onoe summoned, and a oall sent in for the police patrol wagon, on tbe arrival of which the man was oonveyed to Good Samaritan hospital. Woolery,, aooompaoied by his wife, ar rived at tbe Perkins hotel ou Friday last, he stating it na his intention to remain in Portland for a month at least, busi ness and pleasure being oombined in bis visit. Up to Tuesday last, Woolery appeared to be in perfect health aod tbe best of spirits, be and his wife apparently en joying themselves. On Tuesday Wool ery was taken down sick with an attack of grip, and forced to seek bis bed, he not leaving tbe room since nntil carried out with a bullet wound in bis head this afternoon. Last night Woolery suffered greatly, his feverish condition being suoh as to at times bring on semi-delirium. Tbis morning, however, he appeared quieter and his wife, who bad been in constant attendance upou bim, sought some need ed rest. How Woolery readied the bureau and seoured the revolver with whioh his mad aot was oomnaitted, is not known, but shortly after 1 o'olock the wife was startled by the report of a pistol Quickly reaching her husband's side sbe was horrified to find bim lying face downward on the bed. a ghastly wound over the right temple, from which the blood was pouring, and the still smoking pistol on tbe fljor, instantly revealing tbe tragio aot of her husband. The sound of the shot aod Mrs. Wool ery's ories spread the alarm to the hotel attendants. Dr. A. 0. Panton was sent tor and immediately responded. On ex amining the wonnd he at onoe ordered Woolery, who was unconsoioua, con veyed to Good Sumaritan hospital. The senseless form of tbe attempted suioide was carried down stairs and placed in tbe patrol wagon whioh had been oalled, Police Officer Jackson and 'bus driver Obeen, of tbe hotel, support ing the body. Just prior to reaching tbe hospital Woolery recovered oonsoiousness, and grasping Gheen by the wrists drew him self upward and gasped: "What's the matter? What's happened?" Before an answer could be given bim he bad ro lapsed again into unoonsoiousuess. It is generally believed that Woolery was laboring under an attaokot delirium produced by tbe fever from whioh he was suffering, when the desperate aot was committed. He bad but last night appreciated how ill a man be was, and had decided to be taken to tbe hospital today, tbe hack in which be was to be removed being iu waiting at tbe hotel entrance at the time Woolery turned the pistol on himself. It was at first supposed from the des cription given of the wound that Wool ery was seriously if not fatally wonnd ed. Tbe examination at the hospital, however, shows that the bullet, which was fired from a cheap bulldog revolver, had not the foroeto penetrate Die skull and Woolery escaped witb a severe soalp wound. Jne Woolery, brother of Tboa. Wool ery, the well known merchant of lone, left on Friday night to be at tbe bedside of bis brother.
