weak, and the lids Inflamed and sore, It
is an evidence) that tho system has
become disordered by Scrofula, lor
which Ayer's Sarsaparilla is the best
known remedy.
Scrofula, which produced a painful in
flammation in my eyes, caused me much

My eyes ore now in a splendid condi

Mrs. William Gage, Concord, N. II.
For a number of years I was troubled
with a humor In my eyes, and was unabln
to obtain any relief until I commenced
using Ayor's Sarsaparilla. This niedl
cinehas effected a complete cure, and I
believe it to be the liest of blood puri
fiers. C. E. Upton, Nashua, H. II.
From childhood, and until with a few
months, I have been afllicted with Weak
and Boro Eyes. I have used for these
complaints, with beneficial results,
Ayer's Sarsaparilla, and consider it a
great blood puriiier. Mrs. C. Phillips,
Glover, Vt.
I suffered for a year with Inflamma
tion in my left eye. Three ulcers formed
on tho ball, depriving me of sight, and
causing great pain. After trying muny
other remedies, to no purjioso, I was final
ly induced to use Ayer's Sarsaparilla.
By Taking
three bottles of this medicine I have boen
entirely cured. My sight has been re
stored, and there is no sign of inflamma
tion, sore, or ulcer In my eye. Kendal

My daughter, ten years old, was afflict

the last two vears she never saw light of
any kind. 'Physicians of the highest

There was a Frenchwoman who played tho
violin.rereivlng $100a daytherefor; aswonn u
were so scarce in those days, whenever she
left the saloon to go out ou the strut every
saloon around the sipiar was emptied to get
a look at her. In these saloons there were
pilvs of gold, both in coin and neks of gold
dust, that would put some of ourcoiiinierciiil
banks of the present day to tlm blush, and
long tables that had their croupiers ready to
rake iu or pay out as fast as the cards were
turned. 1 have often watched some- novice
who was putting down hi llrst ventures at
plav. Ou one invasion I saw at the same
lubie two clergymeu shove their coin uirtler
another man's arm on the table. I knew
them both and know of what I speak wo are
all mortals after all. Among other noted
players was a judge at that time, who made
it a point every veiling to go around from
place to place and make high play. Upon
entering with bis attendant, who carried the
sack, be would first sit down at a table and
bar off every other player; then set his time
of play at a limit, say twenty minutes or half
an hour, the stake from ten to twenty thou
sand dollars with the bank. Meantime, to
keep the crowd that would be in it the time,
which would manlier from ;i(H) np to near
IIMNI, he always asked them to take a drink,
which meant '-." cents a head for the bar; and
if he won he paid for the drinks, if lie lost

Our neighbor ou the north, which has long
wanted to tieoome s part of the Union, seems
at least largs, rich and great enough to be
come a state. Eugene Semple, govenor of
Washington territory, in his annual report to
the secretary of the interior, estimates the
population of the territory at 1 KI.Gli'J, an iu
crease of over 10,000 in the last two years.

which nearly 17,000,000 acres remain niisnr
veyed, has been retarded by that fact, bybu
uncertainty of Northern Pacifto titles, by ex
tensive Indian reservations, eto.
The report speaks at length of the resour
ces and capabilities of the territory, in the
way of crops, slock raising, minerals and
lumber production, eto., and of their great
variety ami impottance. Of 01,000 children
of school age, the average iluilv attendance

Tod P.inghiim, the well kuown lawyer, tells
a story ou ('apt. Aukeiiy to tho stl'eut that
when that big man with a heart in proportion
to his body was riding ahead of a pack train
that was taking supplies into tho mines In
Jackson county he was stopped by a young
fellow with a pistol ami told to throw up his
arms. The old msu turned in bis saddle anil
viewing the aiuntour road agent from head to
foot said: "You'rs foolish.boy. Yen could nt
hit me but ones, and then before yon would
know where you were I'd have you in these
big arms of mine and squeeze blood out of
yout ears before you could say Jack Robin.
son. Now tell me the truth, are you hun
gry?" "I nm," was the feeble reply. "I've
been roaming about these mountains for a
week, and am broke, hungry, afoot and sick."
Then the generous old miner got down from
his mule, and when the pack traiu came mi
gave the poor boy an abundance of food,
mounted him on s cay use and hired him to
help tho train men as a night herder.
How Many Bullets mi.
Boston Beacon.
The uestiou has often besn raised, what
proportion of balls exchanged by hostile sr
mi.s will hit their mark and kill. Difficult
as it is to solve it exactly, somo approxima
tion may be arrived at from the numbsr of
balls-sstimated at 30,000,000 which were
fired by the Germans in the war of 1870-71.
The French army lost, in dead and wounded,
about 110,000 men. According to this, only
on. ball out of 1 13 fired hits its man, and as
suming that on an average only one man out
of seven bit was actually killed, it would
ssem that only one rillo ball in H.'j8 proved
fatal. It is further considered that as the
number of men wounded and killed by the
guns of ths artillery are included in ths
above estimate, it may safely bs said that not
over one rifle, ball in 1,000 fired proved fatal.
Incifnie of Colored Proplc.
New York Sun.
Bishop Alexander W. Wayman, the great
leader of the colored Methodists, asked the
other day why the colored people of the
South increased so much more rapidly than
the whito, answered: "We draw from three
sources, while the white people only draw
from one every colored woman whose hus
band is white, the children are set down on
our side; every white woman whoa husband
is colored, which condition exists in the
north, the children are set down on our side;
every offspring of pure African blood, of
course, ii st down on our side: while the
white people only draw from one source,
themselves."

One evening, soon after my arrival in East
srn Assam, and while ths live elephants were
being fed opposite ths bungalow, 1 observed
a young and lately-caught one step up to a
bamboo fence and quietly pull up one of the
stakes. Placing it under its foot it broke oil'
a piece with its trunk, and, after lifting it to
its mouth, threw it awny. It repeated this
twice or thrice aud then drew another stake.
Seeing that the bamlion was old and dry, I
asked the reason of this, and was told to wait
and see what the elephant would do.
At last it seemed to get a piece that suited
him, aud holding it in the trunk firmly, and
stepping the left fore leg well forward it pass
ed the piece of bamboo under the armpit, so
to speak, and begau to scratch with some
force.
M surprise reached its climax when I saw
a large elephant leech fall to the ground, quite
six inches long, and thick as one's tlnger.aud
which, from its posillou , could not be easily
detached without this scraper, which was de
liberately made by the elephant. I subse
quently found that this was a common occur
rence. Such scrapers are used by every ele
phant daily.
Ou another occasion, wheu traveling at a
time of year when the tlies are so tormenting
to an elephant, I noticed that the one I rode
had uo fan, or wisp to beat them olT with.
The driver, at my order, slackened jace and
allowed her to go to the side of I lie road,
wheu for some moments she moved along,
rummaging the smaller jungle on the bunks.
At last she came to a cluster of young shoots
well branched, and after feeling among them
aud seUctiug olio raised her trunk and neatly
siripped dowu the stem, taking ulV all the
lower branches and leaving a tine bunch of
top. She deliberately cleaned it down sever
al times, aud then laying hold at. the lower
end broke off a beautiful far, or switch, about
live feet long, handle included. With this
the kept the tlies at bay, Happing them off on
each side,
Say what we may, these are both rosily

on the democratic side of the chamber, lie
is oue of the best rsad men in ths United

uo place but while upon his feet speaking,
and he does not impress strangers as being a
great mini. He is backward and modest in
privals life, aud docs not indulge to any ex
tent in couvivial society. He makes friends
slowly, but he sticks to his friends to the last
and tights for them. He hates his enemies,
loo, and ho believes, I think, iu the philoso
phy of revenge. He is a great reader; aud is
a fine classical scholar. 1 le can speak French
Gorman aud Italian, and he has such a good
accent iu each of these that he is often mis
taken for a foreignsr. I don't think he has
vtr traveled to any sxtsul abroad, and he
has acquired his culture by private study. He
is a widower, but will not cut any flguro in
Washingtou society, lis will uot be seen
much about the hotels, aud be will spend
