THE E v EN'LN G‘Ghzn'r'in Whether Hereditary or of a Syphiliiic llaiure, as well as all of the Terrible Ills that Attend such Afietiions, CURED BY SMITH’S Syphilis is a disease that is responsible for more untimely deaths and terrible conditions than any other known malady. For years this awful disease was considered incurable. In fact, there are many doctors to-day who do not hesitate to tell a patient that he might as well make way with himself at once,_as ever expect to get relief from this ' disease when once contracted. Such a course of reasoning is unsound. Modern science has done much to stamp out this dreaded malady, and as long as we have Smith’s Green Mountain Renovator to depend upon there exists the greatest hope of recovery. Smith’s Green Mountain Renovator has cured many cases of Syphilis, and, in fact, it has effected cures where everything else had been tried in vain. There are any number of people living to-day in sound health, who have been Smith’s Green Mountain Renovator contains a specific antidote for this awful malady and eradicates it completely, if used as directed and persevered in. The many troubles that are noticed in the latter stages of the disease can be avoided, or even cured, by Smith’s Green Mountain Renovator. Rheumatism, blotches on the skin, falling out of the hair, ulcers in the mouth and throat, glandular swellings, and the'many other symptoms that are known too well, give way when Smith’s Green Mountain Renovator is used. . , For sufferers not only from this terrible affection, but from minor cases of ’ blood poisoning, we would like to remind them that Smith’s Green Mountain Renovator is purely vegetable in its composition and is a genuine remedy that was formerly the prescription of a well known doctor. Sufi'erers from blood poisoning should not lose valuable time, but begin to take Smith’s Green Mountain Renovator at once. Especially in such diseases are delays dangerous and prompt action necessary. ' That many terrible cases of blood poisoning have been cured should give confidence to sufferers who are similarly afflicted, or are in danger of becoming as hopeless. “My son suffered frightfully from sores that covered his body and limbs. I gave him Smith’s Green Mountain Renovator and cured him in six weeks’ time. Rev. E. D. HOBKINS, Albany,Vt.” “ My son, eight years old, was afliicted - with sores all over his face and neck. He had suffered in this way for two years. I heard of Smith’s Green Moun- tain Renovator and thought I would try it. In four weeks’ time he was entirely cured. E. G. DEMING, West Enosburg, Vt.” “I have received great benefit from [ the use of Smith’s Green Mountain Renovator in the cure of blood poison. ing. It has no equal as a blood purifier and I can recommend it to all persons afflicted with impurities of the blood. S. T. LEBARON, 67 Pub. Square, Room 6, Cleveland, Ohio.” Another case of scrofulous eruption having been cured is that of Mrs. Lorency Knappen, St J ohnsbury, Vt. Mrs. Knappen suffered with scrofulous eruptions and with severe swelling of the glands under her arm, which seriously affected her breasts. Her child also suffered with scrofulous sore face. A complete cure was effected in six weeks by using "mith’s Green Mountain Renovator. , ’ We could —— did space permit—go on and cite innumerable cures of cases of blood poisoning of a venereal nature as well as those due to hereditary causes; but the surest and best way to insure for yourself a cure is to buy at once Smith’s Green Mountain Renovator. Remember every bottle of this famous medicine is sold under guarantee, and your money will be refunded if you cannot effect a cure when our directions are followed and persevered in.

I like to think that Shakespeare was fond of his glass. 1 even cling to the tale of that disgrace. ful final orgie with friend Ben Jonson. Possibly, the story may not be true, but I hope it was. I like to think of him as poacher, as village ne’er-do—well, denounced by the local grammar school masterfpreached at by the local J. P. of the period. I like to reflect that Cromwell had a wart on his nose; the thought makes me more contented with my own features. I like to think that he put sweets upon tlie chairs, to see finely dressed ladies spoil their frocks; .to tell myself that he roared at the silly jest, like any East End 'Arry with his Bank Holi- day squirt of dirty water. I like to read that Carlyle threw bacon at his wife, and occasionally ’made himself highly ridiculous over small annoy- ances, that would have been smiled at by a man of well balanced mind. 1 think of the fifty foolish things a week I do, and say to myself, “I too, am a literary man.”——Jerome K. Jel rome in The Second Thoughts of an idle Fellow. Labouchore's Clever Woolng'. Mr. Labouchere, father of the first Lord Taunton, was employed as a young man in the great mercantile house of Hope. He applied to Sir Francis Baring for leave to pay his addresses to his daughter. Sir Fran- cis demurred, as Labouehere, though a rising young man, had no fortune. “But it Hope takes me into partner- ship?” said Labouchere. “Oh, yes, it Hope takes you into partnership.” ' Labouchere then went to Hope and intimated his wish for this arrange- ' ment. Hope in his turn demurred. “But if I marry Baring’s daughter?” “Oh, if you marry Baring’s daugh- ter—” So Labouchere married Baring’s daughter and became a partner in Hope’s.—-New York Mail and Express. “That musical young man’s voice is rmarkable for its volume, isn’t it?”- remarked Mrs. Blykens. “Volume,” echoed her husband. “When he gets to telling you What he knows. it’s a whole library.”-Wash- lngtou Star. ,_ , m.
