The g gladly welcomes letters {Mh any of its readers in regard'to questions of public interest. In fact, we wish we had more of them for many good ideas are evolved this way. However, the publishing of let- ters anonymously or over an as- sumed name frequently leads to trouble. The nan who signs his name to an article takes the re- sponsibility for its publication, and will be more careful in what he writes than the one who can hide behind a nom de plume, For this reason the Whig has decided to discon- tinue the practise of publishing letters other than those signed by the correct name of the writ- % er.

Everybody i§ troubled at this sea- son with loss of vitality, failure of appetite, that tired feeling, or with bilious turns, dull headaches, indi- gestion and other stomach troubles, or with pimples and other eruptions on the face and body: The reason is that the blood is impure and impov- erished. Hood's Sarsapatilla relieves all these ailments, It is the old reliable medicine that has stood the test of forty vears,--that makes pure, rich, red blood---that strengthéns every organ and builds up the whole sys- tem. It is the all-the-year-round blood-purifier and health-giver. It embodies the careful training, ex- perience, and skill of Mr.tHood, a pharmacist 'for fifty years, in its quality and power to cure. oN . Ask your druggist for it today.
