Xliat Tired Feeling Is often the forerunner of serious illness, which may be broken up if a good tonic like Hood’s Sarsapa- rill a is taken in season. This medi cine invigorates the kidneys and- liver to remove the waste from the system, purifies the blood andbuilds up the strength. Constipation is caused by loss of the p eristaltic action of the bowels. Hood’s Pills restore this action and invigorate the liver.

AgainstOruel^ Treatment of Tramps, E d ito r o f t h b U nion :—I see by your paper to-night that four young 1 , tramps you call them, were isted last night for being found asleep in a box car at Germantown. This morning, “giving a satisfao- »ry account ot themselves before ustice Cox, they were allowed to epart, after being advised to im- lediately leave town.” It does not appear from the pub lished report that these unfortunate human beings were guilty of any offense, except that of being home- ss, and for this they were pounced a b y the “ minions of the law ” and ustled off to prisonei’s’ cells. This maybe very aw'e-inspiring to >me, but to mo such exhibitions re simply heartless. Thus driven from pillar to post, with nowhere to “lay their heads” in peace, is it wonder such people become used morally, ;s of othf 1 ¥ T c r e a t e s a ^ £ m ira c le o f V energy a jJ ' still greater mir^ ® acle of cost— ; H - o I jw Have some H-0 for bteakfsst. ^ eckless of rights of others, partici those who hound them along ? icularly arrest and interference with these homeless and so far as is known, inoffending people without a hint or murmur of protest.
