The success of Hood's Sarsaparilla
in conquering scrofula in what
ever form it may manifest itself is
vouched for by thousands who were
severally alllicled by this prevalent
disease, but w ho now h-juice over a
permanent cure bv Hood's Sarsa
parilla. Scrofirla may appear as a
humor, or it may attack the glands
of the neck, or break out as dread
ful rut.ning sores on the body or
limbs. Attacking the mucous
membrane, it inav develop into
catarrh or IoiIlmiil' in the hint;
hud into consumption. Come as
it may, a faithful course of treat
uieiit with Hood's Sarsaparillu will
overcome it, for working upon the
foundation of all diseases, impure
blood, the system is clarified and
vitalized, and vigor, strength and
health restored to the hotly. .

One of the most striking and sig
niticant developments of the time
is found in the change which has
come over the municipal conditions
of'Ntw York city within the last
two years, and which has its .a test
manifestation in the Police Com
missioner's work in enforcing the
laws against liquor selling on Sun
days. It illustrates once more the
great fact that interwoven firmly
into our social fabric is a vast in
fluence for cleanness and honesty
and justice, which will always show
itself and hold the cloth together
when the threads of corruption rot
and fall away. A grand work has
been done, work which will be
permanent in its effects. Tides ebb,
it is true, and New York will prob
bbly fall a little way to her old
condition; but tides flow again, and
