THE BEST Family' rlEDiciriE She Has Ever Known. Words of Praise from a New York Lady for AYER'SP.LLS " I would like to add my testimony to that of others who have used Ayer's Pills, and to say that I have taken tlieni for many years, and always derived the best results from their use. For stom ach and liver troubles, and for the cure of headache caused by these derange ments, Ayer's Pills cannot bo equaled. .--'-1, When my friends asl; rne what in t'10 best remedy for disorders of the stom ach, liver, or bowels, my iuvr.rj.iliV answer is, Ayer's l'ills. Taken in son, they ivili break u; a cold, prevent la grippe, check fever, and regulate the digestive organs. They are easy to take, and are, indeed, the best all-round family medicine I have ever known." Mrs. May Johnson, SOS Rider Avenue, New York City. PILLS Highest Honors at World's Fair.

When Gow Chow was brought np for sentence he created a most amusing scene. The process of American law courts is something beyond the Celes tial's grasp. He thought it was all right and regular to be led to the bar by his queue and made no demur. He raised both hands while hearing his doom, his knees bent inwardly from agitation, and his face wore a woebe gone expression ludicrous in the ex treme. The Sentence waB a fine of $50, which was paid by his attorney, and he was told to go. He started, but was plainly afraid to make any decided mo tion when the clerk thundered: "Go on." Thus encouraged, he walked a few steps, but again fearing a trap turned, to the judge and stopped. He was waWd onward and thus by stages left the court room. On the steps he met Jailer Fitz Gerald coming up, and Gow thought here was another peril. He commenced to tell the jailer in Chinese how it was. but Mr. FitzGerald could not or would not understand, and told the Chinese to "g'wan," and still jabbering, he left the scene of -his incarceration, trial and dis charge behind him.

Wells and J'hilbrick, Jailer Peer and Cleric Heed were on the front porch of headquarters, when a little girl, not more than six years of ag-e, stood on the sidewalk below listening to the conversation. "Hello, little one, what are you 'rubber-necking' there for?" said Willard. "Yes," added Wells, "take the rubber out of your neck and go along." With a look of scorn, min gled with one of amusement, the little one said, pointing first to Wells and then to Willard: "If I had the rubber out of your neck and the wheels out of that fellow's head I could make a bicy cle and ride away." With this quick retort the young miss walked away with a self-satisfied grin on her pretty face, amid peals of laughter from the chief and other listeners. Seattle Post-Intelligencer..
