Dyspepsia
Make* the lives of many people miserable,
and often leads to self-destruction. Distress
after eating, sour stomach, sick headache,
heartburn, loss of appetite, a faint, " all gone "
feeling, bad taste, coated tongue, and Irregu
larity of the bowols, arc
Distress some of the more common
After symptoms. Dyspepsia doe«
_ . not get well of Itself. It
Eating requires careful, persistent
attention, and a remedy like Hood's Sarsa
pariUa, which acts gently, yet surely and
efficiently. It tones the stomach and other
orgaii3, regulates the digestion, creataa *
good appetite, and by thus SÎCk
orercomlng the local symiv a rfnr t. a
toms removes the sympa- ncdHtn<no
thetic effects ot the disease, banishes the
headache, and refreshes the tired mind.
" I have been troubled with dyspepsia. I
had but little appetite, and what I did eat
u . distressed me, or did me
WeaiT" good. i n an hotir
bum after eating I woul* expe
rlence a falntness, or tired, all-gone feeling,
as though I had not eaten anything. My trou
ble, I think, was aggravated by my business,
which is that of a painter, and from being
more or less shut up in a §QUr
room with fresh paint. Last ». _ a( ,i.
spring I took Hood's Sarsar flVOmacn
rîlla— took three bottles. It did me an
immense amount of good. It^ave me an
appetite, and my food relished ana satisfied
the craving I had previously experienced."

OUR FLAG CIGAR.
The proudest flag in all this world
Is that we here unfurl;
Each stripe is like a ray of hope,
Mach nar as pure as pearl.
Its colors all the nations know,
They brighten every shore;
It is the grimiest banner far
That breezes ever bore.
It typifies the great cigar
Of which it is the name;
It has no rival in the world.
None ever tastes the same.
So, while you love the dear old flag,

Few of our people have any idea
of the general attention the numer
ous projects of reclaiming the arid
lands of the great west are now re
ceiving in the east, and the spécial
attention being paid by Congress.
A special committee of the Senate
in charge of Senator Stewart of Ne
vada will visit the West this sum
mer and inspect and gather infor
mation concerning canals, reservoirs,
etc., in every State and Territory
where there are arid lands which
will be made productive by water.
The following is one of the many
dispatches that are of almost daily
occurence in the papers:
New Yokk , April 8.—Salt Lake
Tribune.—Congressman Roswell
P. Flower has started for a seven or
eight week's trip to California with
his family. Flower designs com
bining business with pleasure. He
strongly favors a National policy
which shall give our interior states
which have no rivers and harbors
or creeks to improve, a share in the
public expenditures. For such pur
poses he wants to see a grand Nat
ional system of water sheds estab
lished under the army engineers in
the western parts of Dakota, Nebras
ka, Kansas, Texas and the States
and Territories lying between those
States and California, for storage of
water, so all that fertile territory
may be brought into culture and re
lieved from the summer droughts,
so Flowers'« trip may bring results
of greater importance than the
Pleasure derived from a visit to the
acific Coast at this season

The new jury seats are a great
improvement over the old benches,
which made jurors think more of
porous plaßters, after a few hours
sitting, than of the testimony.
Judge Weir and District Attor
ney Wilson went before the County
Commissioners on the 10th inst.,
to consult with reference to chang
ing the shape of the court room, in
order to avoid the unpleasant echo
that prevails. The flat ceiling acts
as a sounding board and renders it
almost impossible for speakers to
be heard. It is thought the mat
ter can be remedied at a small out
lay by arching the ceiling and
changing the position of the Judge's
bench.

blessings of liberty, prosperity and

A Great Battle.
Is continually going on in the hu
man system. The demon of impure
blood strives to gain victory over
the constitution,, to ruin health, to
drag victims to the grave. A good
reliable medicine like Hood's Sar
sapariHa is the weapon with which
to defend one's self, drive the des
perate enemy from the field, and re
store peace and bodily health for
many year3. Try this peculiar
medicine.
"Every Springr,"
Says one of the best housewives in
New England, "We feel the neces
of taking a good medicine to purify
the blood, and we all take Hood's
Sarsapariila. It keeps the children
free from humors, my husband says
it gives him a good appetite, and for
myself I am sure I could never do
all my work if it was not for this
splendid medicine. It makes me
feel strong and cheerful, and I am
never troubled with headache or
that tired feeling, as I used to be.
