‘Hood's Sarsaparillia.
That Tired Feeling .
RELIEVED BY HOOD’S SARSAPA-
RILLA, WHICH RENOVATES THE
BLOOD.
That tired feeling that comes to you
in the spring, year after year, is a sign
that your hiood lacks vitality, just as
pimples, boils, and other eruptions are
signs that it is impure; and it is also a
sign that your system is in a low or run-
down condition inviting disease. It is a
warning, which it is wise to heed.
Ask your druggist for Hood's Sar-
saparilla. This old standard tried and
true blood medicine relieves that tired
feeling. It cleanses the blood, gives new
life, new courage, strength and cheer-
fulness. It makes the rich red blood
that will make you feel, look, eat and
sleep better.
Be sure to get Hood’s Sarsaparilla. It
embodies the careful training, exper-
ience, and skill of Mr. Hood, a phar-
macist for fifty years, in its quality and
power to cure.

CONVERSE IN MORSE CODE
Thomas A. Edison and His Assistant,
Miller R. Hutchinson, Have a Per-
fect Understanding.
Thomas A. Edison’s friends, who
know how deaf the inventor really
is, wondered at the success with which
he presided when the new naval con-
sulting board met in Washington last
fall. As a matter of fact, says the
New York Sun, Mr. Edison fooled ev-
ery member of that distinguished body
of men, including President Wilson
and Secretary of the Navy Daniels;
he heard little that was said, but he
presided successfully because his as-
sistant, Mr. Miller R. Hutchison, kept
him informed of everything by means
of a telegraphing finger tip that
touched Mr. Edison’s knee under the
table.
A few years ago Mr. Hutchison fell
a victim to the whooping cough and
lost his voicc temporarily. Mr. Edi-
son suggested to Mr. Hutchison that
he learn the Morse code. He did so,
and the two men communicated with
each other by tapping the dots and
dashes with their fingers.
And so, when the inventor went to
Washington to preside over the des-
tinies of the new board, he took Mr.
Hutchisua with him, and posted him
at his right hand. Mr. Hutchison
tapped to Mr. Edison everything that
was said, sometimes verbatim and
sometimes boiled down into fewer
words. He was able to send Morse
messages to Mr. Edison at the rate of
thirty words a minute, and, as the
speeches were delivered in a more or
Medical.
What Ails You?
" Have you become run-down, weak,
amaciated, pale after a long siege of
colds? Does the skin show that thc
blood is thin and watery? Spring is
the time when vitality is at its lowest
cbb—clean house now—by ridding tho
body of its accumulated poisons. Re-
fresh the blood with a stimulating
tonic.
Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discov-
ery, free from alcohol or narcotics and
extracted from roots and barks with
pure glycerine, banishes from the blood
all poison and impure matter, IL
dissolves the impure deposits and
carries them out, as it does all im-
purities, through the Liver, Bowels,
Kidneys and Skin.
If you have indigestion, sluggish
liver, backache over the kidneys, nasal
or other catarrh, unsteady nerves or
unsightly skin, get Dr. Pierce’s Golden
Medical Discovery to-day and start at
once to replace your impure blood with
the kind that puts energy and ambi-
tion into you and brings back youth
and vigorous action.

What Qur Neighbors Say.
UnionCity, Pa.—*I was all run down
and had to get a medicine to build me
up. I had little appetite and lacked
strength. I was tired out all the time.
My husband brought home a bottle of
‘Golden Medical Discovery’ and it did
me so much good we bought six bot-
tles. I built up fast on it, my strength
and appetite came back and I became
fatter. It did me lots of good and I
have always been glad I took it.”—

to keep up with almost every sentence
of every address.
Mr. Edison and his assistant also
work the Morse code with their eye-
lids. With them a quick wink means
a dot and a long wink means a dash,
and they talk to each other in this
way when they wish to convey a mes-
sage of a private nature when they
are surrounded by other persons and

Here's Bellefonte testimony.
Mrs. S. S. Leitzell, 118 E. Beaver

by backache in a severe form. I was
nervous and run down and dizzy
spells were common. The kidney se-
