011 the local diamond, and defeated tho home
team hy a score ot' 7 to 2. The j'fime was
unexciting, thonijh the attend^nee vvr.s
good and everything prohiised a fine game.
Scott, and Sixsmith were the Han Antonio
l>attery and Shea and Murphy the Houston.

game, they could not get it safe but four
tiuies, and those were in different inning*
and the result was a shutout. Boston's rep-
resentative* did little hotter with tiio vet-

first and thi'ee in the second got in two runs,

catching of (hri ;■ foul die? by Sowdei s, each

strength of the situation. The government re-

for wheat. It. was this, and good buying by
local professional's, that advanced July from

of the se«-ion. Trading was quite largo in

i.ir AuKtial,
THo Sealy Rifles gave a beautiful exhibi-
tion tlriil on tl:o beach lawn yesterday even-
ing, wliieh v,-as witnessed by a large crowd
of uliu'ns. After the battalion drill and
drtn parade, in which Potit's band took
part, the crack team of twenty-four men,
who will enter for the interstate prize at
the Asotin drill, gave a magnificent drill,
both in the evolutions and manual. If tho
£ rdys do not find a place among I'ae inter-
state teams this year it will be because they
meet with some unforseen accident on the
field, or else aiv brought into competition
with some stronger companies than at-
tended the big interstate drill in this city
in IfWo. Such a drill as the company is
capable of putting up is worthy of any in-
ters; ate contest.
Tlie iiealys will leave by the Santa Fo at
7 o'clock this evening, carrying from sixty

One of the Most Remarkable Cures
on Record
" Almost a Miracle" Accomplished by
Hood's Sarsaparilla
The following statement is worth careful
reaclint: by every one, r.-i it i:i an honest account
of one of the most remarkable cures ever" ac-
complished by liny medicine. Seldom lias a
community been so greatly interested in a case
of t his kind as was tho village of Damariseotta
Mills, Me., in the sickness and euro of Mr.
liaukin. People not only in the county, but all
over New England, who know about the case,
have Joined with tho aged father in pronounc-
ing it "almost a miracle.", Everything else had
failed, and death seemed inevitable, when
Hood's Sarsaparilla Was resorted to and effected
A WONDERI'UIi CURE.
"The statement which I here make may seem
too extraordinary to be true. But 1 will toll my
story as plainly and truthfully as I possibly can,
and refer for corroboration to almost, any resi-
dent of the town, where I have lived all my
life. When a youth I was strong and active,
ablo to work hard, ambitious to succccd in life.
I am now 34 years of age, and fourteen years
ago began to have epileptic tits, caused, as wo
believe, by injuries to tho spine received by a
fall, as none of our family have been similarly
affiieted. Some nine years ago, by advice of a
physician, I began to take a bromide compound,
which had a quieting effect upon my nerves.
This being, I am told, a 'cumulative drug,' and
taking nothing to carry it out of my system,
it had a disastrous and
ALMOST FATAL EFFECT
upon my blood. In fact, I think I never could
again go through the pain and misery of
the past two years. Soon after I began with the
bromide sores appeared on tho calves of ray
legs and body. X tried all the medicines wo
could hear of but nothing stayed their terrible
progress. They became very severe under my
knees, and when I walked blood would start
from them and mark on the floor :ny path from
room to room. At length the cords became con-
tracted so that I could ho longer walk, and was
obliged in despair to take my bed, from which
i never expected to rise. Excepting my head,
hands, feet and breast, I was literally covered
with sores, constantly discharging corruption.
No words can convey an idea of the
AWFUL SUFFERINGS
that I endured, as my condition was almost \:o
terrible to describe. I was unable to sit up or lie
down, but was obliged to keep in a reclining
position, resting oil my feet, hips, the palms of
my hands and tlie back of my head. I could
not bear the touch of heavy clothing, and my
coverings were of the lightest possible materials.
When they were changed or the cloths 011 my
limbs were removed largo scabs came off with
them. When old sores dried up new ones
formed. 1 had 110 appetite or strength, and was
in such pain that I could sleep only when I be-
came totally exhausted and relapsed into un-
consciousness. 1 had tho constant attention of a
LOVING FATHER AND MOTHER,
who almost exhausted their health and their
means in endeavoring to relievo my sufferings.
I had been conlined to tho bed about a year,
when, in September, lssfl, 1 asked mother it; 1
could not try Hood's Sarsaparilla, as we had
rend of its remarkable success. I took one hot-
tie and noticed 110 change, but continued to
take it. When 011 tho ili'tli bottle wo noticed
that the sores seemed to look better,^vnil tho
ilesh under them natural.
THIS BAY OF HOPE
was cheering, and when my young friends in
the village made me a Cristmas present ol' a
dozen bottles of Hood's Sarsaparilla my grati-
tude to them and to the medicine was almost
unspeakable. I continued to improve. The
smaller sores gradually healed up, and even the
moro stubborn ones were forced at last to yield
to the medicine. Now and healthy skin formed.
My appetite came back to me, I ate well and in-
creased in flesh. I soon jiogan to get natural
sleep, and now rest as well as any one. After
being confined to bod a year and five months I
was able to get up. I seemed to grow stronger
every week, and could soon work about tho
house, and walk with a cane, which I should
not need but for the contracting effect of tho
sores upon the cords of my logs. I am now en-
tirely free from sores, having all over my body
only tho scars as reminders of my sufferings.
My whole improvement I attribute solely to
Hood's .Sarsaparilla, and can truthfully say I
believe I owe my life to this wonderful medi-
cine." «. WARREN RANKIN,
Damariseotta Mills, Lincoln County, Me.

LATER LETTERS
From 3Ir. llanldn and His Mother—Still Im-
proving.
Damaiuscotta Mills, Me., March 4, ]R88.—
Messrs. C. I. Hood <fo Co., Lowell, Mass.: 1
write uto tell you that I am still taking Hood's
Sarsaparilla. My health continues to improve,
my appetite is good, and if it were not for a lit-
tle trouble with my ankle I should feel perfectly
well. I have taken Hood's Sarsaparilla contin-
uously from tlie beginning, and I recommend it
to all as the best blood purifier known. Very
truly yours, CI. WARREN RANKIN.
WANTS TO PROCLAIM IT IN FLAMING
LETTERS.
Damaiuscotta Mills, Me., March 4, 1888.—
Messrs. C. I. Hood & Co., Lowell, Mass.: As
my son Warren is writing to you I feel as though
I wanted to take a Jiand in the business. As 1
look at him sitting up writing and see him dai-y
walking about, I think how short a time it has
been since he was perfectly helpless, and I feel
that I want to proclaim it to tho world in flam-
ing letters that Hood's Sarsaparilla did it. Re-
spectfully, MRS. M. A. RANKIN,
W IT \T MORE IS NECESSARY.
Surely after reading the above, not even the
most skeptical can doubt the peculiar power of.
Hood's Sarsaparilla in purifying the blood, driv-
ing out disease and imparting health and vigor.
"The greater includes the less," and if Ilood's
Sarsaparilla will accomplish such a great cil: e
as this, it will certainly cure scrofula, salt
rheum, and all diseases or affections arising
from impure or poisonous state of the blocd.
Had Mr. liankin despaired and rejected Hocd's
Sarsaparilla because a single bottle did not
cure him, he would probably have dkd. Sc ere
cases require persistent treatment, aid all we
ask of any one is that Hood's Sarsaparilla be
given a fair trial.

FIRST—It Teaches Those V.'iro Have It How to Tell What the Matte*,
is When a Person Gets Sick. All similar books toll what to do if yen know what tk#
disease is. This book tells you how to detect the disease, and then what to do for it.
NO OTHER. BOOK PUBMSHEEJ DOES THIS.
SECOND.—When a person is really attacked by a dangerous disease, it enables yos
to know the fact, and in such cases its advice is: " Send for a competent physician aj
once." But in all ordinary cases, such as can be easily cured (and most of the ailment,
of a family are of this kind, if only you could recognize them), it gives full directions for
treatment. The point is, that it teaches you to distinguish between a dangerous and a
trifling disease, and tells you when it is necessary, and when net necessary, to call a jphy*
sician*
NO OTHER BOOH PUBLISHED DOES THIS.
THIRD.—In its directions for treatment it is not confined to the practice vised by an^
one class of physicians; but it gives separately, and for each disease, the methods used by
each )f the different " schools " of medicine; and in all cases the prescriptions are made
by the most eminent men in their respective modes of practice. This makes the work
specially suited to the needs of every family, no matter what "school" of medicine thf#
prefer.
NO OTHEK BOOK PUBLISHED DOES THIS.
Besides this there are three chapters in the work which arc worthy of special mention,
namely: Those on "Diseases of Women," "Diseases of Infants," and "Care of ths
Sick."
The first of these is a model of its kind. It is chaste in language, contains no dis-
gusting pictures for children to happen on and be ovcr-curious about, and taken altogethei
is the most practical, sensible and straightforward treatise upon this delicate subject that
has ever been printed.
Tliis chapter alone is worth many times the cost of the book to every mother, even ii
it had to be purchased at its regular price. *
The other chapters referred to are equally well-written and valuable.

TO OTJH OLD SUBSCRIBERS.
It is customary with newspapers to give premiums to new subscribers only; but the
publishers of THE NEWS mean to revise this old rule; they intend to do as well, at least,
by their old subscribers—those who have stood by the paper in years past, and paid their
money for it ' right straight along." We propose to show our appreciation oj thes«
friends in a substantial manner, and as tlie premium to be offered is expensive, .md as
our express object in offering it is to increase our list of subscribers, we will a:;k every old
subscriber who may renew his subscription, thus receiving the valuable premium, to con-
stitute himself a missionary, and aid us in securing at least ONF. new subscriber. Come
and bring us one new name and get a book that will be of incalculable value to you.
