Cleanse Your Blood The thing most desired of u Spring Medicine is thorough puriticatiou of the biood. With this work o' cleansing going ou tliore is complete reuovutiou of every part of your ay81em. Not only is the corrupt blood made fresh, bright aud lively, but the stomach also rcnponds in better digestiou, its readiness for food at proper times gives sharp appetite, the kidneys and liver properly perform their allotted functions, aud there is, in short, new bruin, nerve, mental aud digestive strength. Hood's Sarsaoarilla Possesses the peculiar qualities? f'r.cufiiir to hich accomplish these good things for all who take it. An unlimited list ol wonderful cures proves its merit. So. 1 ,i.

We quote the rlosiug paragraph* or nu account, in the Century, by H. Plielps Whitmarsli. author of "The World's Hough Hund." of a liot midwinter tramp from Santiago to Havana: Although the entering of a city at night and on foot was no new thing for either of us. .\?*i at that tltne, after for ty-slx days on the road, and after having walked seven hundred and tlfty miles with that partieular city as our goal, we looked at the mysterious arc of iight iu the heavens before us with a sirauge pleasure not unmixed with cxultutiou; for not only h:i?l we accom]illsh?'d what we had set out to do wltli safety add in perfect health, but we also had that peculiar masculine satisfaction of knowing that we were the first white ineu to travel through Cuba ou foot. As soon as we crossed the bridge at Guanahaeon we saw the eleeetrle lights of Havana in circles, squares, and seemingly endless rows. The whole city was aldar.e. The placid waters of the harbor over which we looked were shot with silvery streamers. For the remaining four miles we forgot our sote feet, our weariness, even our hunger. and stepped along at a gait in keeping with our lively spirits. At every turn wt round evidence that wo were again entering civilization: first a great, wliite-walled fort guarding the road; then brightly lighted carriages; later a paved strit't. and at last a liorse-ear. Then t'roiu the suburbau gloom we suddenly emerged into a busy thoroughfare. We had made forty miles that day. and were in Havana. Hut alas! our rejoicings were tpilVkly nippi d in the bud. Before we had gone a block a small man with a large whistle appeared at Balaam's head. He looked at us suspiciously for a moment, then whistled twice. As if by magic four policemen appeared. In vain we protested, threatened, and nourished hnudfuls of papers under the little man's nose. Our looks wore against us. With a jubilant negro crowd surrounding us, we were marched ofT ignominiously to the police-sin- i tIon for the seventh time, and "run j in." mule. dog. ami all. for tly night. Tims even to the last we were the recipients of tin* one thing above all others that a stranger nutlets in CubaMs boundless hospitality.

J. Gordon sketches Woolvioh arsenal in the Leisure Hour. \mong u host of interesting descripdous may be selected here what he tays about tbj making *f a gun: "In '.heir ea-W stages these gunB are unexpectedly long and slender things, ow ng to tnelr lielng without the colls mil jackets that build them up to such tmlkiness. They look their longest luring their wiring, that modern proc?ss which enabled uh to reduce the bulk if the gun so much that the podgy Woolwich iufants have developed into graceful boys. There is something startling in finding a gun being treated ike a bat-handle, the only difference ietng that instead of waxed thread rou wind on a thin flat strip of steel having a breaking strain of 10b tons to the square inch, and wind this on In several layers instead of one. The fun revolves in a lathe as the cricketbat does, but much morn slowly, and In place of the wooden spool of thread there stands, at right angles to it, a huge Iron reel, from which the riband Dr wire, as It Is called, which Is about a quarter of an Inch wide, is wound an ipirally at high tension, the spirals being knocked up tight to each other with a punch whenever they fail to wind on closely together. The gun is thus wrapped with literally miles of wire mostly in the region of the powder chamber. Over the wire jacket come the hoops of cast steel cut out of ingots as disks, and forged into rings Just a trifle smaller than the linger they are to fit: and when these are finished they are one by one, for there are many of them, hcuted just enough to expand them, and slipped over the gun Co shrink and grip it as they cool, the gun being upright at the time, with a stream of water flowing through its bore to keep the temperature down. In this way wiring is all hidden, and the gun looks as though it were built up entirely of these nius slvp hoops, as it used to he. The lathe work and other operations necessitated by all this may be imagined, and wo cease to wonder why it takes longer to make a heavy gun than it does to build the ship that carries it." An interesting exhibit at the Paris imposition will lie an industry of Minnesota not yet two years old, which is converting into many u-eful and ornamental articles the familial wire grass of the American swamps, heretofore considered wholly worthless.
