Spring
Medicine
Your blood iu Spring is almost certain to
bo full of impurities—tho aooumulation
of tho tviulor months. Bad ventilation
of sleeping rooms, impure air in dwell
ings, factories and shops, overeating,
heavy, impropor foods, failure of tho
kidneys and liver properly to do oxtra
work thus (hrust upon Ihom, are tho
prime causes ot this condition. It is
of tho utmost importance that you
Purify
Your Blood
Now, as when warmer woathor comos and
tho touie ulloot of cold bracing nir is
gone, your woak, thin, impure blood
will not furnish noeossnry strength.
That lirod feeling, loss ol appetite, will
opon the way for serious disease, ruined
health, or breaking out ol humors and
impurities. To mako pure, rich, red
blood Hood's Sarsapnrilla stands un
equalled. Thousands testify to Its

After considerable hesitation, which
must have been justified, the park com
missioners of Philadelphia have accept
ed the ¥500,000 bequest of Richard
Smith for a memorial to himself In
Faii-mount park. The estimable Mr.
Smith gains this distinction by the
scope of his memorial, which is to bo
adorned with statues of MeClellnn,
Hancock, Meade and Reynolds, and
bronze busts of other famous Pcnusyl
vauians—Andrew O. Curtin, General
Hartranft, David D. Porter, John A.
Dahlgren, General Beaver, General
Crawford—to whom are added John
B. Gest, executor of the estate, and
James 11. Wlndrim, architect of tho
memorial. The inscription "Richard
Smith, type founder, of Philadelphia,"
ts to be placed on the main column
and a statue of Mr. Smith is to be
placed at the right of the entrance,
tt will be a curious thing.
Appearances Were Deceiving.
"We don't seem to have any No. 13
collars," said the haberdasher, after
looking through his stock. "People nro
oot wearing 13s now, anyhow. Won't
a No. 1-1 do just us well "
"I think not," stilijy answered the
young man on the outside of tho coun

MRS. GOULD'S GRATITUDE

HEALTH.
Condition Bcforo and After tho Birth

From every city, town and hamlet op

suffering women; from those whoso

IWBW women of to-day.
No letters are published without tho
request of tho writer. Tlio strictest
confidence is observed. Tho following
letter represents thousands: —
" I always enjoyed good health un
til six months before tho birth of my
babe. Then I was very woak; my back
ached nil tho time. My physicians
6aid I would be all right after the birth
of tho child, but I was not, although
at that time I had the best of care,
v Tho pains in my back were almost un
bearable. I hud leucorrhtca iu its
worst form; menstruations were pain
ful.
"Any work or care would entirely
unnerve me. When my babe was 11
months old, friends persuaded mo to
tako Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetablo
Compound. Before I had taken one
bottlo I felt the effect*. My back did
not ache so badly, and I felt stronger.
After taking four bottles I felt well.
My ambition returne d, menstruations
wero painless, leucorrhtca entirely
cured, and I could take care of my
babo and do my housework. I shall
always roeommend your Vegetablo
Compound for all women, especially
for young mothers."—Mils. 11. L.
Gooi.n, Oregon, Wis.
If Mrs. Goold had been well befora
the birth of her child, subsequent
suffering would have been avoided.

Mas. STAOTON'S BLOOMERS.
Mrs. Elizabeth Cady Stanton was
tho first woman to wear tho bloomer
ccstumo, nearly half a century ago.
Sho woro it all tho time, and every
where, considering it souHible, till ouo
duy her tvuo fomiuiuity got tho better

was "ugly."—Now York Advertiser.
A WOMAN OF WAR.
Mare. Gith, cautiniero of the Fifth
Regiment of Chasseurs d'Afrique, of
the Freuch army, who has just been
decorated with lier eighth medal, has
a military record that not many men
can boast. Now in her fifty-first year,
Mine. Gith in her lifotime has seen
service iu tho Crimea, iu Italy, in
Syria and in Mexico. At sixteen sho
was under fire when nidiDg the wounded
before Sebastopol.
FOR THE LOW HEET,.
A shoemaker says that people who
run down their heels and thoso who
have weak aukles should nlways wear
laced boots, the litter being particu
larly careful to secure a snug fit about
tho iustep. Weak ankles require stiff
counters and low heels. If there is
nny piny iu tho iustep the nnklo turns
in walking uud the heel runs down on
one side. If tho shoo is laced the
wearer can draw it together tightly
and it supports the anldo. Persons
who run down their heels should al
ways havo star plates, which are made
of iron, or a half cirolo of iron nails
fastened on the edge of their heels.
Tho steel nails really wear much better
than the iron, but they aro/langcrous,
as they are apt to cause ouo to slip.
Wearing shoes with run down heels
mako tho feet tender aud ruins their
shape.
WHITE APRONED FEMININITY.
Tho stout woman should, if sho
wears white aprons, mako them as she
does her skirts, with a narrow pointed
or rounded yoke, so that tho fullness
comes well below tho waist line.
White aprons for slender women are
also more becoming if tho fullness
about the waist, especially iu front, is
lessened by shirring it down with from
four to six narrow rows of shirring.
A pretty apron after a new pattern
has the fullness attuchod to tho
rounded yoke as suggested. Iu front
there is a bib gathered into a narrow
spaeo at the waist line, but broader at
tho top. This bib, which is nearly
two-thirjs the length of tho waist, has
fastened to it r.t each corner wide
revors that spread out over tho shoul
der uud aro coutinued iu the back.
Well below tho shoulder blade thoso
collars or rovers each tormiuato iu a
strap. Tho straps cross each other
and are fastened to tho belt under tho
largo bow made by tho strings. The
apron, made of wliito muslin, with
embroidered frills at tho bottom and
on the revere, is becoming when an
elaborato apron is doßired. Deep
muslin cufl's with a frill at tho top add
tho somewhat coquettish, somewhat
matronly ofioot of tho apron.—New
York Commercial Advertiser.
FOR SUMMER GOWNS.
Tho now batistes aro prettier oven
tliau last year, and are iu oven greater
variety. Tho laco striped ones, called
linen grenadines, aro very handsome.
They will bo made witli plain, full
skirts, mounted over bright taffetas,
and havo blouso waists with elbow
sleeves trimmed witli ruffles of em
broidered batiste or bcurro lace, and
reliovod with chino ribbons. This
sounds very liko tho description of a
last year's goiJu ; and tho economist
can tako this comfort to her heart—
the changes nro so alight that any of
last season's gowns can be brought up
to dato with but a fow freshening
touches. The polka-dottod anil striped
batistes aro shown in many colors on
tho natural linen, and thero are also
dark and blue onos dot tod with white,
aud a fow other combinations. Tho
all-over ombroidereel batiste is much
used for parts of blouse waists, us
yoke aud cuffs, or tho outiro front of
tho blouse, with the back anil sloevo
pull's of tho plain fabric.
Dotted Bwiss muslins, lawns and
orgaudies are iu exquisite designs of
blurred and overlapping flowers in
soft and dolicate colors, plainly sug
gested by the popular ckiuo offeets iu
silk aud ribbons, though not copied
from them, and achieving an original
beauty of their own. Sheer fine lawns
and plumetis come also in tho modish
Persian unit Oriental patterns, which
gain an added softne.-s and charm from
thoso sheer fabrics. They will be
made tip with plaiu, full skirts, gored
iu front and on the sides, with straight
back breadths ami hung over wliito or
colored lawn or taffeta skirts. Tho
ruche or double frill of narrow Val
enciennes or Cliuntilly will be again
seen as a finish at tho foot, aud lace
and chine or dark satin ribbons will trim
the full waists and fichus. More elab
orate gowns will have many rows of
insertion blinding tho skirts or insert
ed between tho breadths, bat these
will bo the exception.—Dcinorest's

THE GREAT ANT-EATER.
jI" the Moat Fliowy Quadruped In
| South America.
With the exception of the Jaguar, the
great ant-eater, the ant-bear, or crested
ant-bear, whichever you choose to
j call him, Is tho most showy quadruped
in all South America; nor am I at all
sure ho is not entitled to Brst place, says
a writer in St. Nicholas. In height and
bulk a full-grown specimen is about as
largo as a Newfoundland dog, and is
really quite bear-shaped in body and
legs. Its tail is long and strong, und
bears a tremendous brush of coarse,
wiry, brown-black hair, which makes
this organ very noticeable. Its head is
too small and its muzzle so fearfully
prolonged that it reminds one of tho
head and beak of an ibis. Its mouth
is a narrow slit across the end of that
curious muzzle, its tcaigue Is like a big
j angle worm, a foot long, and It has
no teeth whatever! Its covering is a
rough coat of long, coarse, brown hair,
most strangely marked by a black band
underneath tho throat, which on the
chest divides in'a long, wedge-shaped
stripe of black that extends backward
and upward across the shoulder.
To mo it has always been a puzzle
why this creature should possess such
a luxuriant coat of hair in so hot a
climate. Another point still more open
to criticism Is his clubbed fore feet,
lie walks on his claws, and the outer
edges of his fore feet, in a most awk
ward and even painful way, for which
there seems to bo no adequate excuse
—unless his l'eet were formed that
way to vex the souls of wicked taxider
mists. Put tliem as you will, they will
not icok right; but to the living animal
their big, strong, hooked claws are
very useful in tearing the bark otf de
cayed logs, or ripping open ant hills
for the insertion of that sticky, worm
like tongue. I have often been told
by South American hunters that ■ c
ant-bear uses his long, bushy tail to
sweep up ants with, so that they can
be devoured more expeditiously, but
I fancy that is only a "yarn."
Even where it is most plentiful the
great nut-eater is a rare animal. A1
though I have hunted it many days,
I never saw but two specimens alive,
one of which was a young one in cap
tivity at Cludad Ilolivar, on the Orino
co, and the other was a magnificent
large specimen in Forepaugh's menag
erie. Owing to their lack or teeth and
the peculiarities of their diet, they are
difficult to keep alive in captivity.
North of Panama this species is found
only in Guatemala and Costa ltica, and
is very rare In both these countries. It
lives upon the ground, and its worst
enemies are the jaguar and the puma.

In Russia the State bank advances

trade, tho government bought largely

the absorption of private railroad lines,

ufacture of spirits and tho control of
the retail trade, is about to take the
wine and sugar trade into Its hands,
and very likely the coal trade as well.
Where Tea Is Not Popular.
If you call for tea at a restaurant In
Caracas, the proprietor will send to the
nearest drug store for it, and express
a regret that you are ill. The native
Venezuelan regards tea as a most un
pleasant beverage, and to lie used only
medicinally. '*. is not kept In any of
the hotels, and when it is especially
ordered the quality is simply abomina
ble—for all tho world like a doso of
senna.

Tew pHoplo havo sufTore 1 more from pain
in tho back than Mrs. Lillioß. Newell, of No.
231.'1 Second avenue, New York Cilv. F>r
several years she was so afflicted wi' h this dis
tressing malady thus she w:n hardly able to
f?et around, and could do little to care forhor
children, which mado horsulTering all the
harder to boar. Hor husband. Charles Now- j
ell, who is a well-known Now York optician, i
tried in every way to And a remedy for his \
wife, but no modicitw scorned to have tho 1
power to romove her pain.
Mrs. Glynn, a sister of Mrs. Newell, is a
professional nurse, and was familiar with tho
symptoms of her sister's sickness. Mrs, i
Newell was away on a visit when a reporter
called upon her. but Mrs. Glynn, who lives i
nt No. 410 Fast 120 th stroot, told tho story of
hersist T'S recovery.
A doctor was called when Mrs. Nowoll's I
condition became serious and lie prescribed
small pink pills which, in a short time,
relieved the woman's pain a* no other merit
cine had done. "After awhile." Mrs. Glynn
told tho reporter, "we learned that the med
icine the physician wits giving my sister was
nothing more than Dr. Williams' Pink Pi lb? i
for I'ale People. Knowing by experience ; 1
how excellent a remedy these pills were,
Mrs. Newell bought somo at a drug store and !
continued taking thorn. Thoo(Toot was most I
gratifying, for in six months my sister was
perfectly well and tho pain in her back was
nothing more than au unpleasant memory.
B tb she ari I I have reoommen L" i the pnk j

\A/ith a better understanding of tho
y* transient nature of the many phys
ical ills which vanish before proper ef
forts—gentle efforts—pleasant efforts—
rightly directed. There is comfort in
the knowledge that so many forms of
sickness arc not due to any actual dis
ease, but simply to a constipated condi
tion of the system, which the pleasant
family laxative, Syrup of Figs, prompt
ly removes. That is why it is the only
remedy with millions of families, and is
everywhere esteemed so highly by all
who value good health. Its beneficial
effects arc due to the fact, that it is the
one remedy which promotes internal
cleanliness, without debilitating tho
organs oh which it acts. 11 is therefore
all important, in order to get its bene
ficial effects, to noto when you pur
chase, that you have the genuine article,
which is manufactured by the California
Fig Syrup Co. only, and sold by all rep
utable druggists.
If in the enjoyment of good health,
and the system is regular, then laxa
tives or other remedies arc not needed.
If afflicted with any actual disease, ono
may be commended to the most skillful
physicians, but if in need of a laxative,
then ono should have the best, and with
the well-informed everywhere, Syrup of
Figs stands highest and is most largely
used and gives most general satisfaction.

(Into of May sth, 1895, relates the fol
lowing experience: "Bccently I was
com polio J by a serious siege of dys
pepsia to leave my office work, and
thought to seek relief by a mouth's
travel on the Pacific coast. Tho
rest and change helped mo some
what, but I could Hud no relief for
tho awful fits of indigestion. When
about to return homo to lowa I
entered a prominent drug store iff
Taooina, Wash , and askod for
something that would bring relief
from my indigestion. The druggist
sold mo a box of Hi pans Tabulos for]
fO cents. Iu less than twenty-four
hours I could feci a change for tho
better. From that day to this 1 havo
used 111 pa us Tubules whenever I felt
my old ailment getting in its work,
nud with most commouduL'.e
results."
