While it makes the blood pure, fresh and lively, it tones the stomach to bet ter digestion, creates an appetite, stimu lates the kidneys and liver, gives new brain, nerve and digestive strength. An unequaled list of cures 40,366 tes timonials in two years proves its merit.

To the uninitiated observer some of the gymnastics performed in a game of football are beyond explanation. The story Is told of a half-back who complained to his family about the in justice of allowing football players to wear head protectors.

This is nature's wav of maintaining the proper temperature of our systems and preserving the soft ness and flexibility of the skin, and so long as the blood is free from impur ities no trouble will result. When, however, the blood from any cause becomes infected with humors and acids, these too must be expelled, and coming in contact with the delicate fibres and tissues with which the skin is so abundantly supplied they produce irritation and inflammation, and the effect is shown by Eczema, Acne, Tetter,.and skin affections of various kinds. These impurities and humors get into the blood through a deranged or inactive condition of the system ; the. members whose duty it is to carry off the waste and refuse matter of the body fail to properly perform their work, and this impure, fermenting matter is left in the S5rstera.to. be absorbed by the blood. The skin is not only affected by poisons generated within the system, but poisons trom without, such as ; Poison Oak, Poison Ivy, Nettle Rash, etc., enter through the open pores and glands, and so thor oughly do they become rooted in the blood that they are ever ' present, or return, at certain seasons of each " year to torment the sufferer. Sal ves, washes, lotions, etc., cannot cure skin diseases. True... such treatment re-. lieves-sotne of the itching arid dis-s comfort, and aids in keeping the skin clean, but it does not reach the real cause, and at best can be only palli ating and soothing. A thorough cleansing of the blood is the only certain cure for skin diseases. S.

S. goes down into the circulation, and neutralizes the acids and humors, thoroughly cleansing and purifying the blood, and curing skin affections of eery kind.

Naturally, the attention of most citizens of this great commonwealth has been confined to tbe one idea of money-making; per haps the place has teen mortgaged and every effort has been bent to relieve this condition; or, tome may have Ret a certain standard of money accumula tion and have devoted their energies to working toward this goal. The result of these conditions has been that oi set ting as de the real beautifying of home grounds as a secondary consideration. Another very prevalent reason why peo ple neglect this all-important matter, Is found in the fact that scarcely one person In a thousand steps aside and givei the matter adequate thought. Although one may appreciate the at tractive places of others, still tbe idea of making his own place equally attrac tive is far from the imagination. A third class of people are those who really love the touch which nature gives the home surroundings, but from lack of forethought and systematic planning their efforts fall far short of success. All of these classes of home makers can profitably devote some at tention to this subject, commonly known as "landscape gardening," and its application to homes of our country. The ultimate aim of all landscape gardening, whether conducted on a small or on a large scale, should be to present a pleasing picture. In other words, landscape gardening may be de fined as the art of arranging and group ing trees, shrubs and flowers in such a manner that a picture of undeniable beauty prevails from season to season. It is not enough that the mnterial chosen for the plantings should give an attractive display for a single season, such as the painter places upon his canvas, but the selection should go farther, presenting material that will give increasing variety and alluring beauty for each day, each week and each month. From this statement of the subjeot it is quite evident that the landscape gardener who wields the tools which nature places at his disposal occupies a position on equal footing with the artist who wields the brush in transferring these pictures to the canvas. Yet it is quite possible for most of us to play the part of the former, even though it be in a very limited manner. As many painters are imitators to a great degree, if one should imitate the works of others in the arranging of plants, he would be committing no unpardonable In. In fact, this latter method of procedure is likely to prove the most fruitful means for the average person to employ; at any rate, it will serve ad mirably for the purpose of giving an idea of the kinds of plants to select and the grouping methods most pleasing to the eye. On the other hand, it is necessary that the person who is to become the amateur landscape gardener should un derstand some of the prime essentials and common sense rules of this art. Where shall the flowers be placed? Shall the trees and shrubs come in the middle of the lawn or shall they find a more appropriate location in some other point? Is It good taste to make walks and roads in curves? These and many other questions naturally arise in the minds of those who are carefully prospecting in this subject. It there fore behooves us to get some working idea of these various topics. Every home-lover should give ample attention to this subject.

Colds are very frequent in the Spring on this account, and as the Sum mer advances they do not deciease. During the Spring months no one should think of ri ling on the oar without being provided with a wrap. A cold caught in the Spring is liable to last through the entire Summer. Great caution should be observed at this season against exposure to cold. During the first few pleasant days of Spring, the liaility of catching cold is No wonder so many people acquire' muscular rheumatism and catarrhal diseases during this seaeion. - However, in spite of the greatest precautions, colds will be caught.
