Though the bank account may be large and each one’s material gain be great, it would not be surprising if it sud- denly dawns upon many that good health has been greatly impoverished {by the low condition of the blood. It is in thie state that the lactic acid in the vital fluid attacks the fibrous tissues, particularly the joints, mak- ing known the local manifestations of rheumatism. Thousands of peo- ple have found in Hood’s Sarsapa- rilla the great blood purifier, a positive and permanent cure for rheumatism. Andy Hackett in his Populist is giving Bob Walters of the Review taffy in great big slugs. He is very affectionate, so much so that he is really loving. In another column of his paper he asserts that his printing press is a total wreck, and that un- less his populist friends to the num- ber of two or three hundred come to bis rescue with the pecessary cash on subscription to enable him to buy another press by the first of the new year, his little paper will necessarily be compelled to put on the golden slippers and join the mighty caravan of pop papers that have slipped off this mundane sphere. So, putting this and that together, Andy may have a sinister motive in his compound dose ot flattery of Robert, when we consider the new year so close at hand and the | wretched condition of his press. Of | course that fish worm spinal column of Robert's, that the Populist speaks surrounding this terrible affair have the Tiwes and we deem a rehearsal of the crime is unnecessary at this time.
