Get Rid of Spring Humors
impure or effete matters accumulated in the blood during the winter
cause in the spring such disfiguring and painful troubles as boils, pimples,
and other eruptions, also weakness, loss of appetite, that tired feeling.
The best medicine to take is Hood's Sarsaparilla, which thoroughly
cleanses the blood, and effects permanent cures by giving healthy func
tional activity to the stomach, liver, kidneys, bowels and skin.
Hood's Sarsaparilla effects its wonderful cures, not simply because it
contains sarsaparilla, but because it combines the utmost remedial values
of more than 20 different ingredients, each greatly strengthened and en
riched by this peculiar combination. These ingredients are the very rem
edies that successful physicians prescribe for the same diseases and ail
ments. There i3 no real substitute for Hood's Sarsaparilla. If urged to
buy any preparation said to be "just as good," you may be sure it is in
ferior, costs less to make, and yields the dealer a larger profit.
Begin taking Hood's Sarsaparilla today, in the usual liquid form or in
tfie chocolated tablets known as Sarsatabs. 100 Doses One Dollar.

ONE GREAT TRUST.
Harriman Would Put Every Railroad
Under One Head.
Denver, March 31. If E. H. Harri
man could have his way, he would
bring all the railroads in America into
one giant combination, under one head,
and begin immediately the expenditure
of $250,000,000 or $300,000,000 in im
proving the weaker roads, both physi
cally and financially. In this way ne
says he believes he could do the great
est good to the government, the people
of the United States generally, to the
shippers individually and finally to the
owners of railroad stock.
Mr. Harriman spent two hours in
Denver today as the guest of the cham
ber of commerce, then departed on bis
eastward journey.
"If we could, we would throw our
cloak over the weaker lines throughout
the country and begin immediately the
expenditure of between $250,000,000
and $300,000,000 to improve them,
said Mr. Harriman in an informal talk
at the chamber of commerce. "It
ought to be done immediately and I
think I can qualify as an expert on
these matters. This should be done
openly and under some sort of govern
ment supervision. But we would all be
put in prison if we tried it."

Twelve Thousand Machinists Dead

Winnipeg, Man., March 31. Alarm
ing reports are current here that anoth
er big strike of machinists on the Ca

The company, it is alleged, refuses to
negotiate jointly with the - men on the
Eastern and Western systems, and as
that is strongly favored by the men, a
deadlock has been reached in the nego
tiations. Last night more delegates
arrived from far Eastern and Western
points and Grant Hall, head of the me
chanical department in the West for
the company, who was summoned to
Montreal a few days ago, wired last
night in very discouraging terms.
The present schedule expires in a

once agreed upon. II the men strike

note to the following effect :
First, Servia declares that her

and will not permit the formation of

President Taft and His Family in Their White Steamer
When the announcement was made
several months ago that Mr. Taft would
use an automobile during his term as
president, much rivalry developed
among the leading manufacturers for
the honor of selling him a car and the
public watched with interest to see
what Mr. Taft's choice would be. The
When their labors were completed, I er except that his car has the United
the officials reported unanimously to States coat of arms painted on either
Mr. Taft in favor of the White, and,
accordingly, a car of this make was im
mediately ordered from the manufac
turers, The White Company of Cleve
land The new car was delivered to Mr.
Taft in Washington a few days before
knowing ones predicted that the White ; his inauguration and since that time it
Steamer would be selected and they has been in almost constant use. There
pointed out that President Roosevelt has not been a day when the president
had used White Steamers for two years ' or some members of his family have
at bis summer home at Oyster Bay and not been seen riding around the nation-
had recommended this make to Mr,
Taft as the most desirable. .
This prediction proved correct, al
though Mr. Taft did not rely solely on
Mr. Roosevelt's recommendation but,
with his usual thoroughness, determin
ed to have an investigation made of all
the principal makes. . Accordingly, be
asked several officers of the War
part ment to look into the matter
al capital in the new car. It is hinted
that Mr. Taft likes fast traveling and
that when he rides out into the open
country, he does not always insist that
the speed of the car be kept within the
legal limits.
C. A. Hawkins, manager of the Pa
cific coast branch of The White Com-
de- i pany, 1470 Market street, San Fran-
for cisco, said recently to a correspondent
him and tbey tested many makes of of this paper: "We are receiving
cars, visited a number of factories so many inquiries each day asking for full
that they might see what materials details regarding the construction of
were med and. finallv. thev investi?at-: Mr. Taft's car and in reply we are
ed the records of the different tvoes of sending copies of our catalog. Mr.
cars in public contorts and in private Taft's car is exactly like any other
service. I Model M' 40 horsepower White Steam-
door. In other words, when we make
a car for the president of the United
States there is no way in which we can
make it any better than the car which
you, or anybody else, can purchase
from us.
"Some of those writing to me about
Mr. Taft's car say that although they
are very desrious of having a car like
Mr. Taft's, they are afraid that such a
car is somewhat larger and more ex
pensive than they desire. In reply to
these letters I point out that our Model
'O' 20 horsepower car is exactly like
our 40 horsepower model, except as re
gards the size of the different parts.
The principle of construction is exactly
the same and the smaller car possesses
all the desirable qualities of our larger
model. In other words, I point out
that they can secure an exact duplicate
of Mr. Taft's car for $4,000, or a car
of the same qualities but of smaller di
mensions for only $2,000. Judging by
the demand for White' cars, a good pro
portion of those desiring to purchase
automobiles are quite content to trust
President Taft's judgment as to the)
best and most desirable make,"
