"DON'T CARE TO EAT."
It is with the greatest confidence
that Hood's Sarsaparilla is recommend-
ed for loss of appetite, indigestion, sick
headache, and similar troubles. This
medicine gently tones the stomach, as-
sists digestion, and makes one "real
hungry." Persons in delicate health,
after taking Hood's Sarsaparilla a few
days, find themselves longing for and
eating the plainest food with unexpect-
ed relish.

Vacation Advice.
Don't go out in theavoods to fiy a kite,
only the birds fly there
Don't waste your time in trying to
catch two inch tish with a ten foot pole.
Don% try swimming in creeks where
the water is two feet deep a,nd muti six
feet deep.
It is always well to remember the
fact that savage cows and:fierce dogs
can't climb*trees. ,
Don't climb trees after the blackber-
ries.' The only thing you will get on
such a quest is --"left".
If a strange dog sMiles at you, it is pol
icy to smile back, and if he runs at 3' 011
the best thing is to run back.
It is adding insult to injury to burn
up the farmer's fence in trying to cook
the corn you have helped yourself to.
You may imagine that you help the
haymakers by jabbing the horses with
the pitch ork and g'etting' tangled up in
the reins, but you do not, and they will
probably tell you so.
If you get tired doing nothing, it is a
good thieg to sit under the bans to pass
tlie Omelet waitin esfor thssweather cols
to crow. A g,reatiaany days may be
employed to this manner.
The Triennial Orange Council.
The tenth session of the imperial
triennial council of,the Orange order
finished its deliberations at Toronto on
Friday at 2 p. en. The greater part of
the morning was taken ap in the dis-
cussion of a change in the form of ob-
ligation taken by those joining the or-
der. At present there is only one form
of obligation, and many citizens of the
United States objeet to it as it stands.
They cannot be Orangemen and citi-
zens of the republic at the same time
unless their conscience takes an opiate
The discussion started on a motion in-
troduced by Grand Master Taynor, of
the United States who upheld his views,
in a good, sensible and moderate speech
of some length, but some other of the
American friends were quite waspy
over the affair. On motion of Graud
Secretary Robt Birmingham the mat-
ter was referred to a committee coni
posed of the gietnd masters of England
Ireland, Scotland, Australia, British
America and the United States. It is
not expected that any change will be
made, as the majority of the delegates
seemed to think that, as the Orange or-
der is essentially British, that any
change would tend to loosen the bonds
between Canadians and the mother
country, and that it would be inadvis-
able to weaken the tie which retain
them as subjects of the British Queen.
