Purify your blood, tone up the sys- tem, and regulate the digestive organs by taking Hood's Sarsaparilla. Sold by all druggists. A despatch from Newfoundland says the Governor has requested the Good- ridge Ministry to resign. THE PAINS pF RHEUMATISM According to the best authorities, originate in a, morbid condition of the blood. Lactic acid, caused by the decomposition of the gelatinous and albuminous tissues, circulates with the blood and attacks the fibrous tissues, particularly in the joints, and thus causes the local manifestations of the disease. The back and shoulders are the parts usually affected by rheuma- tism, and the joints at the knees, ankles, hips and wrists are also some- times attacked. Thousands of people have found in Hood's Sarsaparilla a positive and permanent cure for rheumatism. It has had remarkable ,success in curing the most severe cases. The secret of its success lies in the fact that it attacks at once the cause of the disease by neutralizing the lactic acid and purifying the blood, as well as strengthening every function of the body. A hockey league has been formed at London, composed of players in the banks and financial corporations.

Of the latter 3 are insane and waiting re- moval, having been reported ; 2 are committed for street walking and 3 as vagrants who are aged and totally un- fit to earn a living. Of the males 3 are insane and waiting removal, one under sentence for attempted rape, one await- ing trial, and 13 serving as vagrants. of whom 8 are aged and helpless. The jury recommended as follows : 1. We would recommend that the in- sane be removed to the asylum as speedily as possible, as we are inform- ed the new asylum at Brockville is com- pleted and will leave more room in that of London and Hamilton. 2.

We strongly suggest that the board of health of the town of Goderich exercise more vigilance regarding the sanitary condition of the premises of the gaol, as we find the sewage in the yard emitting it most offensive effluvia, which in our judgment, contains and will disseminate the germs of contagi- ous disease. In this connection we sug- gest that a drain be made to connect with the main sewer or the river. 4. We find the beds and cells in a fairly good condition and the floors and walls clean. 5.

The first ancient author to mention rye was Pliny. Fine flour composes about'8oper cent. of the grain, - In India the cultivation of rice ante- dates history. Oats were not known to the Hebrews or the Egyptians. EgyptMpt and Asilet ti prsiaistorfc in South Europe, ]tl• ewes olel in Aa. R The earliest mention of oats itt China SO -ll Situate On Albert St. is in A.Dp, 618. Maize has been found in this most an- cient Periiyian tombs. "Spurred rye" is one of the most deadiy poisons known. The straw of rye is often of far more value than the grain. Pliny mentions oatmeal as a favorite food ot the Germans. Spelt undoubtedly grows wild on the plains of Mesopotamia. Spelt is a favorite grain in South Ger- many and Switzerland. Every language is said to have its own name for wheat. Wheat is believed to be an evolution from a mountain grass. Maize has probably more enemies than any other species of grairr. Barley is found mentipned of the ear- liest Egyptian monuments. The Swiss Lake Dwellers made more use of spelt than of wheat. "Starch -wheat," grown in Switzer- land, has two grains to each ear. Rice is said to be the staple food of nearly one-half of the human race. It is said that mules fed on corn that has the smut will lose their hoofs. According to Pliny, the Roman wheat has ears with 100 grains each. Millet is sowed by the Chinese Em- peror in a solemn ceremonial every year. The Greeks had oats, B.C., 200, but used them only as food for their horses. The native home of wheat is suppos- ed to bo the mountain regions of Ar- menia. Rye contains from two to five per cent less of the nitrogenous principles than wheat. A fair article of molassess can be made from the stalks of the common maize. The average wheat yield in England is said to be thirty-six bushels to the acre. The China or tea wheat is said to have come from a grain found in a chest of tea. Japan has developed a variety of maize with leaves beautifully striped with white.—St. Louis Globe -Demo- crat. He W,u.ted to Know. It is populariy supposed that bishops possess the power of self-control in a perfect degree, but sometimes the befit of them disclose the fact thdt,after all, they are but mei'. On one•occasion a certain•lord bishop, eloquent and saintly, whose name is al• most a household word in England, was preaching at the opening of a new church, and for a few days stayed at a country house in the neighborhood. This bishop was excessively fond of a game of billiards, and could hold his own on the cloth against the majority of amateurs. ` During this visit his lordship played several quiet mines with his host, but one mornin° had a prolonged run of bad luck, which so exasperated him that at last he entirely lost his temper, and in his rage snapped the cue in two across his.knee. This mad action seemed to bring the. bishop to his senses, and '1,with profuse regrets he apologized to 1j�js host for his conduct, declaring that lie would not have had it happen for thele world. The host cooly replied: "I must beg you, my lord, to think no more about the matter. I am really glad that it occurred, as for many years I have been anxious to see what a bishop was like when . he wanted to use bad language."—New York Herald. Nicholas II. of Finland,.! "Very little is so far known about Nicholas II., the new grand duke of Finland," says a correspondent. "There is no doubt that the young czar has re- ceived an excellent education. The home life of the imperial family, so touchingly plain, in the atmosphere of which he has grown up, must needs have exercised some influence on his character, In order to develop the ideas in a more liberal direction, and extend his views as to the high duties of a rule, his esteemed teacher. Mr. Heath, an Englishman, has not spared any efforts. Wide travels have tended to ripen his judgment and increase his experience, His teelings towards Fin- land are understood to be very sym- pathetic. All this is a good guarantee for the future, The great question re- mains whether the young emperor will have sufficient independence of char- acter to free himself from the influences of the counsellors who have stood at his father's side." Tho President's Detectives. The detectives who accompany Presi- dent Cleveland whenever he goes away from Washington keep their identity pretty well concealed. Thov are un- obtrusive and attract very little atten- tion, and they don't want to. It was not generally known recently that one of these men was in close prox- imity to the President when he drove through Central Park with Dr. Bryant. The detective was in a one-man wagon, and kept within 80 or 40 yards of Mr. Cleveland's carriage.
