NOT A SICK DAY
For Over Thirty Years!
RESULT OF USING
AYER'SPILLS
"Ayer's Cathartic Pills for over thirty
years have kept me in good health,
never having had a sick day in all that
time. Before I was twenty I suffered
almost continually as a result of con
stipation from dyspepsia, headaches,
neuralgia, or boils and other eruptive
diseases. When I became convinced
1 few, M
y ft, r
St .&;, ,,. .8
that nine-tenths of my troubles were
caused by constipation, I began the use
of Ayer's Pills, with the most satisfac
tory results, never ' having a single
attack that did not readily yield to this
remedy. My wife, who had been an
invalid for years, also began to us
Ayer's Pills, and her health was quickly
restored. With my children I had no
ticed that nearly all their ailments were
preceded by constipation, and I soon
had the pleasure of knowing that with
children as with parents, Ayer's Pills,
if taken in season, avert all danger of
Bickness." H. "YVettstein, Byron, III.

COINED IN CHINA.
Clew to Source ol Counterfeit Half-Dol-lars
Circulated on the Coast.
At last, tbo United States secret serv
ice authorities have struck a lead to
the source from which have come the
thousands of almost perfect imitation
half dollars circulated throughout the
Pacific coast.
It is believed the counterfeits, which
absolutel3r defy detection, except, when
under a powerful magnifying- ylass in
the hands of a clever expert, wore made
by Chinese in their native land and
brought to this country lat summer
by the members of the troupe of Chi
nese actors who came to America to
perforin at the Atlanta exposition. Al
most the entire troupe is now in San
Francisco, having been filling engage
ments in Chinatown theaters since re
turning from the east.-
It i:! estimated that $20,000 of the un
iinihorixed coins have been disposed
of by the Chinese, and that "little
Pete." the Chinaman of recent ra.ee
1 rack-job notoriety, was hack of the
scheme. However, the $2'.),C0O realized
lias not been clear profit, as the coun
terfeits contain almost the same
amount of pure silver a.s lo the regular
ly minted half-dollars, but t he extreme
ly low price of silver bullion gave the
counterfeiters n good profit.
BENEDICT ARNOLD MANSION.
One of the Finest Sp? inij-nn of Colonial
Architecture to Be Restored.
The Benedict Arnold mansion in Fair
mount park. Philadelphia, is to be re
stored to its original condition by the
Kairmount Park Art association. It
was built in 1761 by John J.IcPherson,
and with the large estate surrounding
' it was sold to Benedict Arnold 'for $S0,
000. The property was ' forfeited in
17T6 on account of Arnold's treason,
and sold to Col. Richard Hamilton in
1781. It became the property of the
city of Philadelphia in 1SCS, and since
1878 has been used as a restaurant and
dwelling. So few alterations have been
made in it that it stands to-day prac
tically as it was when built. It is re
garded as one of the finest specimens
of colonial architecture in the country.
Tramps of Tender Years.
Sleeping in the open air is a grievous
and severelj'-punished offense in Eng
land. Two little girls, one five years
old, the other two, were brought before
a London police magistrate recently,
charged with sleeping out without vis
ible means of subsistence. Ha refused
to commit them and ordered them to be
let loose in the streets again, as their
parents had abandoned them.
Reporters Assault Boer Names.
During the Jameson trial in London,
the stenographic reporters had a hard
time with the Boer names that came
tripping off the tongues of the wit
nesses. In one instance a place is men
tioned which appears in the depositions
as Van Uithoouis Winkcl.-piiiit. The
nearest the Evening Standard reporter
got to it was Van Nit Hookiswinkel
Sprint; the Globe gentry modified this
to Van Nit Hooriswinkel, while the Sun
simplified it to Van Oudtshhoorn's, and
the Evening News boldly made one fear
some word of it, thus: Vanoudt.scha
wanswinkle. The rest .of the reporters,
like prudent men. declined it alto
gether. Subscribe for Thb Chronicle

It I the Most Appurate Instrument De
visod by IVTan.
A chronometer is the most accurate
instrument. devised by man. The grcai
er part of the chronometer's mechanism
resembles that of the common -watch,
but is constructed v.ilii every r-sibit
provision to insure accuracy. so per
fect is the instrument that even as far
back as 1720 Mr. Harrison produced a
chronometer which did not vary a sec
ond in ten years. Everything has been
done in the manufacture of this marvel
ous piece of mechanism to avoid error
that human ingenuity can devise. Per
haps the most wonderful feature of the
chronometer is the compensation bal
ance, a beautiful contrivance for coun
teracting the effect of changes of tem
perature, which, by causing an ordi
nary balance to expand and contract,
bring about variation of time. So
beautifully is the balance maintained
that a siiip may pass from the torrid
zone to the neighborhood of the jxle it
self, and the chronometer will not vary
a second.
German Women Societies.
There are at. the present time no less
than 1,500 societies in Germany organ
ized for the protection ol" youngwomen
of the working classes ;ik! devoted to
their interests. A weekly journal with
a circulation of 13,000 copier, i : printed
for their benefit. .
The Tables Turned.
In England it is a common thing to
see clergymen's wives invii ing ladies to
come to them" as general servants for
the honor and glory of the thing, but
the tables have been turned by three
ladies in a London suburb, who have ad
vertised for a gentlewoman to do ; Ik
work of their cottage. The gentle
woman required must, according to the
advertisement, not only be strong, ac
tive and an early riser, but must be a
clergyman's or professional man's
daughter. A critic remarks that the
advertisers would doubtless feel de
graded by sleeping in a bed r.nl" by Un
hands of a young woman v. !. ;:thcr
had been in trad".'
