Every production of genius must be the production of enthusiasm. Eeal Merit. Is the characteristic of Hood's Sar saparilla, and it is manifested every day in the remarkable cures this medicine accomplishes. Druggists say: When we sell a bottle of Hood's Sarsaparilla to a new customer we are sure to see him back in a few weeks after more, proving that the good re sults from a trial bottle warrants con tinuing its use. This positive merit Hood's Sarsaparilla possesses by virtue of the Peculiar Combination, Proportion and Process used in its preparation, and by which all the remedial value of the ingredients used is retained. Hood's Sarsaparilla is thus Peculiat to Itself and absolutely unequalled in its power as a blood purifier, and as a tonic for building up the weak and weary, and giving nerve strength. The Mauch Chunk limes places the name of the wealthy Mrs. Eckley B. Coxe, of Drifton, in nomination for Director of the Poor of the Middle Coal Field Poor District, and solicits the two party conventions that are to meet in Hazleton this week, to give her a unanimous endorsement. The lady has always taken an active and lively interest in the welfare of the in mates of the institution, especially during the past) ear or two. Those fully informed in the matter are en thusiastic in their praise for the good work she is doing to amehiorate the condition of the feeble, the aged and the afflicted who are gathered at the almshouse. An election to the position will be an honor not so much to herself as it will be to the good sense and judgment of the voter of the district, and will be an inovation in coal field Politics. Rev. Sylvanus Lane Of the Cincinnati M. E, Conference, makes a good point when he says: "We have for years used Hood's Sarsaparilla in our family of five, and find it fully equal to all that is claim ed for it. Some people are greatly Crejudiced against patent medicines, ut how the patent can hurt a medicine and not a machine is a mystery of mysteries to me." Hood's Pills cure Liver Ills. Thre is not a passion so strongly rooted in the human breast as envy. With Ely's Cream Balm a child can be treated without pain and with per fect safty.

For thirty years I have been troubled with it have Hied a number of remedies without relief. A druggist advised Ely's Cream Balm. I have used on ly one bottle and I cm say I feel like a new man.

Science knows of the mastodon only as "an extinct fossil proboscidian pachy derm, closely allied to the elephant of modern fauna." Who knows, however, but that theso 'supposed-to-be-extinct' creatures may be as plentiful in the "land of the midnight sun" as mule foot ed hogs seem to be in Arkansas, Mis souri and tbe Indian Territory? Three weeks ago I would have been much more surprised had I met a real live male foot ed hog than I would have been to have met a whole herd of the aforesaid "fossil proboscidian pachyderms." Since that time everything haa changed. The hun dreds of letters sent in by kindly dis posed friends are convincing proof that male footed hogs are more plentiful in the south than office seekers in Washing ton. St. Louis Republic.

Philadelphia Ledger. When Sore Throats Were Expensive. "When I first went into the show busi ness," said a wealthy retired circus man. "one of my chief attractions was a pair of giraffes. Giraffes were a novelty in those days, nnd theso proved to be a greut card, but before I had them a mouth thoy were both taken with sore throats.
