CANCER CURED .. and a . LIFE SAVED By the Persistent Use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla "I was troubled for years with a sore on my knee, which several physicians, who treated me, called a. cancer, assuring ' me that nothing could he done to save my life. As a last resort, I was induced to try Ayer's Sarsaparilla, and, after tak ing a number of bottles, the sore began' to disappear and my general health improve. I persisted in this treatment, until the sore was en tirely healed. Since then, I use Ayer's Sarsaparilla occasionally as a tonic and blood-purifier, and, in deed, it seems as though I could not keep house without it." Mrs. S. A. Fields, Bloomfiekl, la. .'AVER'S-'.

There is apparently no end to the "catch bets" devised by the wary for the benefit of the unwary. The latest in that line to reach Helena, says tbe Independent, was one that W. E.' Phil lips had, and one that came near finding takers of great odds. "I will bet," said Mr. Phillips, "$25 that I can name twenty-five states that McKiney will carry, and then I will bet $250 that we will carry half the re mainder." Thomas Craban is an ardent silver man and one who doesn't mind taking in a good thing when it comes his way, either. He heard the offer, and had his money np to take the. first part of it right away, and was going down for some more when a friend told him what be was running up against, and he withdrew. Of course the man. who makes both wegers has more solicitude for the larger bet. He will name nearly all Bryan states in tbe first twenty-five, expecting to lose some of them, and it is a "cinch" that out of those remaining McKinley will carry half. 1 The wager is ingenious, though, and the opinion of people who do not believe it is wrong to gamble is that the man who invented it is entitled to what he can make for his originality. .

A goodly share of mirth and merri ment, a fair share of pathos and senti ment, a necessary supply of special scenery, and a quantity of bright, catchy songs and specialties constitute the com ponent parts of tbe very popular play of "A Bowery Girl," the property of Mr. Harry Williams, and tbe creation of Miss Ada Lee Bascom, tbe brilliant authoress. No play of late years has at tracted the favorable attention of press and public alike that" this has. Tbe production certainly deserves it, if one. may judge from the universal endorse ment it is receiving. It is said to be of a distinct and separate class of melo drama to any that has been, prod need-in years. '. It certainly must possess con siderable more than the usual amount of merit to warrant the. success and at tention it is meeting with. Chicago, Boston, Philadelphia, and in fact all the large cities have given their approve ment to it, whilst New York city, which would naturally be supposed to be suffi ciently familiar with the scenes and. in cidents of the play and the types of character predominating in it to afford some excuse for lack of enthusiasm, re ceived the play in . its. entirety with ex treme liberality. -' It will.be seen in this city at Vogt opera bouse Wednesday, Sept. 30th. .

The free coinage press has for several months past been publishing an article said to have been taken from the Lon don Financial News of March 10, in which the prediction was made that if the United States adopted free silver Great Britain would lose all her trade with South America, India, China and Japan. The pretended quotation also declared that this trade which Great Britain would lose would all go to the United States. In its issue of Aug. 13 The Financial News-pronounces the alleged extract to be a forgery and declares positively that nothing of the kind was ever printed in its columns. An examination of a file of the paper shows that its statement is true. Will the silverite newspapers which have been publishing this fake argu ment for free coinage please explain to their readers that they were- misled by some unscrupulous forger? ,-- Property and Industry. Property is the fruit of labor. Prop erty is desirable, is a positive good in the world. That some should be rich shows that others may become rich, and hence is encouragement to industry and enterprise. Let no man who is homeless pull down the house of another, but let him work diligently and build one for himself,, thus, by example, assuring that his own shall be safe from violenoe when it is built.
