Tt was not A perfect SPRING MEDICINE should be Tonic, Alterative and Cathartic in its effects. Tonic means strength-giving—overcoming the effects of debility, that tired feeling, restor- g healthy functions, and creating appetite—Hood’s Sarsaparilla is positively and peculiarly Tonic. Alterative means blood-purifying—and the whole world knows Hood’s Sarsaparilla to be the standard, the unequalled, the unapproached blood purifier. Thousands of great cures of scrof- , eczema, rheumatism, catarrh and every other form and degree of blood disease, prove its great curative power. g Cathartic means bowel and liver cleansing, and for this purpose Hood's Pills are_rapjdly g in favor. They cure that bilious condition so common in spring, constipation, indiges- tion, etc. Thus Hood’s Sarsaparilla and Pills go hand in hand. Buy them to-day and have the whole family begin to take them as a Spring Medicine. i growi will perhaps have no other effect than to produce litigation. One of the most sweeping measures to attain this end is constitutional amendment No. 17. by Sav- age, which if adopted will have the effect of abrogating ‘every charter in the State, and confer ‘on the Legislature the power to control municipal affalrs. Some Corporatiod Bills. s Another sweeping measure is Assembly constitutional amendment No. 28, to con- solidate all commissions In a single State Commission, which 1s given absolute power over all corporations, a measure which will cause much uneasiness to the Ripubllcnn party in the coming elections, large number of measures emanating from corporation sources have heen on the boards for action. Some of the most notorfous of these measures were the Broughton franchise bill, Tyrrell insur. ance bill and Curtin assessment bill. The latter was bitterly contested, resort be- ing had to trading of all kinds. particu- larly on the apportionment bill. Trading of votes has been noterlously prevalent during. this session, notwith- standing the admonktion in thé message of the Governofr, thus resulting in the passage of many bills earrying unneces- sary. ‘lpnropnn{g"m.
