It Prevails Among All Nations Where Horses Exist. Sailors are, for the most part, careful to leave a horse-slaoe nailed to tba mizzen- mast, or somewhere on the deok Lear 'mid. ships, for the protection of the vessel. The Chinese have their tombs built in the shape of a horsashoe, which custom is very curious, as it may be fairly regarded es a brench of superstition long prevalent emoug ourselves. The principal gateway at Allababed is thickly studded with borse- ahoes of every size end make. There are 'reieneiled all over the great .aates, doubtless the offering of many a wayfarer who has long since finished his earthly pilgrimage. The saored gates of Somnath, in the fort at Agra, are eimilarly adorned. The practice re- minds us of the old manorial rite at Oek- ham, in Rutlandshire, Eng., where every peer of the realm ia bound, the first time he enters the town, to present a la orse-shoe to be nsiled on the old portal, which is welbeigh covered with these tributes. It ie said tbat, in case any contumacious peer should refuse to pay this tsx, the authori- ties have a right to stop his carriage and levy blackmail by unshoeing one of the horses. To avert so serious an annoyance, the tribute shoe is generally ready, Borne being of thornaceas size and inscribed with the name of the donor. Whether these Eostern horse shoes were times or offerings can not be told, but it certainly is very curious to observe how widespread is the superstition. -N. Y.

The restoration of Greytown harbor, by throwing out a jetty about 2000,feet, to prevent the waves from driving sand &arose the entrance, and dredging the channel and harbor, and the oreation of a harbor at Brito, by means of a jetty and breakvrater, complete the main features of the work to be done in making the canal.

Hoods Sarsaparilla possesses great U medicinal merit, which it positively demonstrates when fairly tried. n It is most economical, being the only medicine of which " Too Doses One Dollar" can truly be said. 3It is prepared by a Combination, Proportion and Process Peculiar to Itself, unknown to other preparations, and by which all the medicinal value of the various ingredients is secured. It effects remarkable cures where other medicines have utterly failed to do any good whatever. we It is a modern medicine, originated by experienced pharmacists, and still carefully prepared under their per- sonal supervision. a It is clean, clear and beautiful in V appearance, pleasant to take, and always of equal strength. 7 It has proven itself to be positively the best remedy for scrofula and all blood disorders, and the best tonic tor that tired feeling, loss of appetite and general debility. ,0 It is unequalled for curing dyspepsia, V sick headache, biliousness, catarrh, rheumatism and all diseases of the kid- neys and liver. in It has a good name at home, there being more of Hood's Sarsaparilla sold in Lowell, Mass., where it is made, than of all other sarsaparillas and blood purifiers combined. In Its a.dvertising is unique, original, %V honest, and thoroughly backed up by the medicine itself. A Point for You.
