The month of February, 1866 was in one respect the most re markable in the world's history. It had no full moon. January nad two full moons and so had March, but February had none. Do you .reahzejy hat ,taetjtnne in nature that vwae ? It hadVnot eccuftedr since 'the time" of 1 Washington nor since the discovery of America, nor since the beginning of the Christian era nor the creation of the world. And it will not occur again, accord ing to the compulation of astron -omers, for how loug do you think? 2,500,000 years. Was cot that truly a wonderful month? Golden Days. With, reference to the above pars graph the editor of Ayer's Aim: n-iC permits us to make the following extracts irom a letter received a few days since from the gentleman who prepares the astronomical calculations for that publication : '-The statement that February, 18(30, was a month without a full moon is true, so far as it applies to tne United States, but it is not true for some of the islands in the western Pacific ocean, including Manila, at which latter place there was a full moon February '28th, 7h. 57m. P. M., lfSOtJ. '-Whether the succeeding state meet, that the same phenomenon will not happen again .presumably for the United States) for 2,500,000 years, is correct or not, I am not prepared to say, for the calcula lious necessary to determine the same are very lengthy and involve wide examination of lunar tables. Certain it is that the statement is not ot universal mundane applica tion, lor no longer ago than Feb ruary, 1885, there was no full moon visible during the month in Aus tralia, there being two full moons, however, in January and two in March, as an examination of Ayer's Australian calendars will suow. In fact, the same was true for British India, as shown by Ayer's calendar for india. 'At Sydeny, Noa Scotia, in the almanac for Maritime Provinces (1885) the full moon was carried jato March at first day, Oh. 0m. M. (or midnight of February 28th, if one wishes to cavil.) To New foundland, however, there was no fall mean in February, the same being clearly thrown over to March 1st, and this is controverting ti o statement of Golden Days, so far as North America is concerned. "In the year 1889 there will be but 'three phases' of the moon, though it happens to be the Dew moon which will be absent t'jis time." Ayer's Sarsaparilla was the first successful blood medicine ever of fered to the public. This prepara tion is still held in the highest public estimation both at home and anroad. Its miraculous cures and immense sales show this, your druggist for it. Ask The neatest aud tiicupeit Land-sewed shoes at Head s.
