The Kidneys and the Skin. In the spring the kidneys have much todo. If they are weak or torpid, they will not do it well, and the skin will be pimply or blotchy. That is telling the story in a few words. Hood’s Sarsaparilla strengthens and stimulates the kidneys, cures and prevents pimples, blotches and all cutaneous eruptions. Don't fail to take it.

The coming of the famous United States Marine band was an occasion long to be remembered by the music- loving portion of our population. Butler was specially honored in this respect, it being the only small city the band visited in the state. It ar- rived on a special train from Sedalia at 7:30 on Saturday night. It was impossible to arrange the full seventy pieces on the stage so that they could be visible to the whole audi- ence. Different national and _ patri- otic airs were given, which elicited much applause from the audience. A fine selection of classical numbers were rendered. Miss Amy Whaley, the littlesoprano. assisted materially in the entertainment by her beauti- ful singing. Manager Ray McCul- lough, assisted by J. E.
