Sarsaparilla.
"On getting: up one morning I found
Tviiat seemed to be a mosquito bite on
the calf of my right leg. Soon tlie
sore grew larger and continued day
after day, becoming more and more
troublesome. One physician advised
poulticing, another physician lold me
to use a rubber bandage, but the sore
grew ■worse until there was not a spot
of healthy skin as large as a ten-cent
piece between my knee and ankle.
A third physician prescribed a paste,
and then a specialist in scrofulous
troubles treated me for a year. The
sore seemed to be healing, but in a few
months broke out as bad as ever. I
had now been suffering for more than
five years. My leg was a dreadful
i sight. There were places so large and
I deep that an egg might have been put
into them. I "n^as told the leg must
be amputated.
“One day a neighbor spoke of the
value of Hood’s Sarsaparilla for
scrofula, and I thought I might as
M-ell take it. Rofore I finished the
first boitle, I suffered less pain and
could .«f-e the edges of the sore fcegiu-
ning to heal.
“So I contTnued taking Hood’s Sar
saparilla, and before long the sore was
co.vipleielr healed and my general
health perfect. I believe it my duty
to tell what Hood's Sarsaparilla has
done for me." Mrs. Jo.sephine Sar

To Capture Wi^d Horses.
By As-ociated Press.
Salt Lake City. Utah, March 18.—
A novel scheme has been devised by
tw’o Salt Lake men to capture alive
the best of the wild horses that roam
in southern Nevada. It is proposed
to s-hoot the animals with bullets
iii;ped with magnesium and containing
a gelatine capsule filled with a narcotic
drug. The magnesiu'ai, it has been
found, dissolves the flesh and causes
no permannent injury if a vital organ
is not penetrated v.hile the opiate de
prives I he game temporarily of the
power of locomotion.
In the n jmadic equine bands are
many magnificent specimens. Stallions
valued at $1,000 a iiead are not uncom
mon. The preseiu method of capturing
is lo wear them out by chas-ing them
in relays.
If the method proves successful in
Nevada, Salt Lakers will try it on wild
beasts valuable for exhibition pur
poses.

are a favorite brceding-])lace for flies.
Wilkcsbarre has gone still farther
ai;d last spring went thi'ough a city
hoase-cleaning that wa,s far-reaching
i.-; its effects. The sanitary committee
of councils ordered the first week of
May to be ca.Iled “Clean-up Week.”
Following this order, councils issued
rooms.
through the slaughter liouses a circular telling how^ Cuba had reduc-
ed typhoid. ..lalaria, yellow
smallpox by the simple expedient of
keeping the cities clean, and calling
upon all citizens to aid in cleaning up
the city.
The circular further advised every
citi/.en to whitewash tlie cellar, and
air and clean it. to reiiair and white-
v.ash or paint his fences, to liurn aTl
rubbish that could be burned, to cut
all weeds, and to rake up all tin cans,
bottles and wire, and have them haul
ed away. The circular asked that ail
plumliing be inspected, that back yards
tie planted, and ordered storage bins
built for all manure.
The >Vomen's Civic Club wdio had
originated the idea, went to work with
a will, the cit.\ delegated inspectors
to help during the “Clean-uii Week,"
and as a result, Wilkesbarre rid itself
in a sh(nt time of filth and rubbii-h.
On the last day of the week the may
or, the city clerk, the health officer,
and the secretary of the board of trade,
together Avitli several of the council-
men made an inspection toiir. VVilkeG-
barre housekeepers as a. result have
had less ily-chasing this year thau j
ever before.
If the fly is a pest by day, the mos-
puito is an ecpially dangeious post by
night. There is just one woy in which
the municipality can eradicate this
I'.est and that is by oilijig the ponds
and pools of water in or near the city.
Comparative>y rew municipalities
have enforced ordinances with regard
to w^eights and measures, but so rapid
ly is the idea gaining in favor that
many cities are now iirejiaring to pass
and eniorce ordinances protecting
iiousewixes in this regsJrd.
In New York City last spring a well-
knov.n firm selling milk and butter
was held because the "pound” of but
ter sold was only a pound when wrai'i-
ped and placed in a pasteboard box.
The firm explained that the pound was
gross weight, but as the price of the
butter was the same as the same qual
ity sold without the box, the explana
tion was deemed insufficient.
In Chattanooga there is an ordinance
which makes the food insjiector a
scaler of weights and measures with
full authority to examine all v.'eights
and measures at any time. The ordin
ance provides a fine fcr any sliortage.
Despite this, an enterprising coal
dealer invented a method of cheating
his patrons successfully for some
time.
This dealer had one set of papers for
the inspector and another for his pat
ron. The one for the patron showed
some fil'teeii or twenty .bushels more
of coal than the one sent to the inspec
tor.
' The dealer advertised in the new'S-
liaiiers that if the coal vras thought to
be short in weight it might be returned
and weighed in the presence of the
patron, the patron to assume the ex
pense if the w’eight w'as correct. Those
who took advantage of this oiYer al
ways sorrowfully paid the extra ex
pense of cartage, for the coal dealer
had an ingenious arrangement of a
beam connected with his banance, that
came up underneath a trap-door on the
inside of his scale house. By standing
on the trap door and adjusting his
own w'eight, he could register weight
anyw'here from a few ounces to three-
fourths of a ton more than the scales
actually held.
The city inspector discovered the
trick, the dealer w'as fined, and the
newspaper publicity accompanying the
case created such adverse sentiment
that he was forced out of business.
Dust, soot, flies, mosquitoes—these
the the things wdiich the municipality
can help the housev.’ife to banish from
her home. Clean milk* clean meats,
and fair weights are among the gifts
wdiich it can bestow' upon her. None of
this can she accomplish alone. As an
intelligent ccworker the municipality:
is more to be prized than a faithful
servant.
