been uning Tbodford's Black-Dranght,
pnd I would not do without it.
I am well of a very bad case of
stomach trouble, aftor using only a
few packages, and 1 think it is fine
for indigestion and hcadacho.
My wife has also frequently used
Black-Draught for constipation and
headache, and thinks It in worth its
weight in gold. Sho would not bo.
without it in tho house.
I recommend Black-Draught to my
friends, and tell them what it did for
me. You are at liberty to publish my
letter, as it might be tho means of
helping some suffering person."
You oannot go wrong in taking
Thediord'B Blaok-Draught for Any
derangement of tho livor, stomach or j
bowels.
Thed ford's Is the old original, ges- j
ulno, powdered liver medicine, having
been successfully and extensively
used long before Its many imitators
began to try to build on Its success.
Black-Draught has been found to
quickly and permanently relievo suoli
symptoms of liver and stomach trou
bles as constipation, biliousness, indi
gestion, headache, sour stomach, etc.,
thereby cleansing and purifying tho
blood and restoring tho system to it3
normal condition and efficiency.

YIELDS TO ANTITOXIN
Krnnk Wliorlcy Iteported nt Virginia
Hospital iin Steadily Improving.
That the administration of more than
SO.OOo units of antitoxin will eucceed |
in saving the 11fi* of Frank Whorley,
of 710 Louisiana Street, who lias been
under treatment In the Virginia llos- .
pltal for several weeks for lockjaw, |
was the belief expressed by physicians
in charge of his ease yesterday.
Since the injection of the antitoxin :
Into the spine, muscles and veins, the
convulsions which for some time had !
been racking the fourteen-year-old !
sufferer, have ceased. This Is regard- I
ed as an unusually good sign by Drs. j
Whitehead and Torregrosa. who have ?
charge of the ease, and they believe I
that Krarik is now well on the road to I
recovery.
The hoy was fed only liquid food i
until about a week ago, when the i
clenching of the teeth was relieved ;
sufficiently to allow him to cat In the j
usual manner. Ho is now able to par- I
take of substantial food.
The case of lockjaw developed from :
a glass cut In the foot. The cut had ;
apparently healed and had been about
forgotten when the tetanus made its :
appearance. A nurse lias been at Hie
boy's side continually since he was
taken to the hospital.

Gentlemen:
This is to give you official noti
fication that the sale of the new
Encyclopaedia Britannica, 11th Edition,
at the present prices must cease on
May 28th, next. After that date the
present cash prices must be increased
as follows;
$29.00 on the Cloth set
$>36.50 on the Sheepskin set
$45.00 on the Suede set
$50.00 on the Morocco set
The prices were increased in England
on the 20th of December last and the
sale in America should have ceased at
the same time, but for the fact that
you had such a very large territory to
cover, and that two-thirds of all the
sets sold have been sold in the United
States and Canada. Under no circum
stances will any extension after May
28th be given, and orders at present
prices postmarked after that date must
be returned. I am,
Yours very truly,
C. F. CLAY,
