For some years I -was a victim to Liver

Brightney, Henderson, 7. Va,
For years I have relied more upon
Ayer's Pills than anything else, to
Regulate
my bowels. These Pills are mild in ac

have used them, with good effect, in
cases of Rheumatism and Dyspepsia.

Morris Gates, Downsville, N. Y.
I was attacked with Bilious Fever,
which was followed by Jaundice, and
was so dangerously ill that my friends
despaired of my recovery. I commenced
taking Ayer's Pills, and soon regained
my customary strength" and vigor.
John 0. Pattison, Lowell, Nebraska.
Last spring I suffered greatly from a
troublesome numor on my side. In spite
of every off ort to cure this eruption, it in
creased until the flesh became entirely
raw. I was troubled, at the same time,
with Indigestion, and distressing pains in
The Bowels.
By the advice of a friend I began taking
Ayer's Pills. In a short time I was free
from pain, my food digested properly, tho
sores on my body commenced healing,
and, in less than ono month, I was cured.

THE BEET SUGAR INDUSTRY.
1 r o i.i,- '...a : xr,.
IsItLUa 3Uicutnji: milieu m iicn
York on September 23 and in a
long interview with the New York
telegraphic correspondent of the
Morning Call he gives more par
ticulars of his trip to Europe to
investigate the beet sugar ques
tion. From the published inter
view we take the follewing: "Hav
ing studied the beet sugar prob
lem in a characteristically exhaus
tive way, Mr. Spreckels said, en
thusiastically, that he thought that
he was about to introduce to the
United States one of the greatest
and most profitable industries it
has yet known. He said the beet
sugar farmers about Madgeburg,
Germany, are capitalists and bank
ers. They have raised the value
of their land to $1,000 per acre;
and he had known a lot of sugar
land in Germany sell for $1,500
per acre. The owner of twenty
acres of land in sugar beets there
is rich. The grower is also a man
ufcturer, the farmers being banded
together and all owning shares in
a manufacturing plant.
1 was splendidly received and
s.peiit two weeks in a factory,
w litre no one has been '"'admitted
before. From this you can see
that I have had the best possible
facilities for study, and of course
these have been improved. My
first plant will cost $300,000 of
my own money. I visited not only
Germany and France, but also
Austria and Bohemia. I shall re
main in this city a few da3'S, and
then go to San Francisco, and
shall at once begin to, look about
for a site for my first plant. I
shall, of course, continue to raise
sugar in the Hawaiian island for
the present. In selecting a site
for the beet-sugar plant in Califor
nia, three things are to be secured
as essential. These are, first, of
course, a place where beets will
grow, ana tnen wnero mere is
cheap and abundant fuel and limp
stone. In the lime-kiln, gas is
provided, which, being drawn olF
by an air pump aud purified
through water, is introduced to a
tank where lime is added.
I have about twenty-five tons of
beet-seed on the way from Magde
burg and about five hundred
pounds on the way from Paris.
The machinery is under contract
to be delivered December loth
next, at either Holland or Bel
giuu. It is being made at or near
Cologne and Prague. It will be in
California January or February.
Meanwhile I will have selected a site
for the plant, and tho machinery
will be all ready for use by the
time the beets have ripened, which
will be by the last of next August.
The seed will not be used in
California; some will bo sent to
Illinois and Ohio, and I shall ex
pect beets to be sent from there
to me, that I may ascertain the
percentage of saccharine matter.
I want you to understand that
when I went to Germany 1 was
not determined to go into the sugar-beet
culture. I went to study,
and my action is the result of that
study.
I have bought abroad special
cutting machinery, a special fusion
tank, a special carbonization tank,
etc, machinery such as has never
been used in the United States.
This machinery has largely raised
the percentage of profit in Ger
many, and a process has been dis
covered there to take away the
salts from the molasses. Mv idea
is that beet sugar will yet domi
nate other agricultural pursuits.
The wheat production of India
is increasing, and England must
put a protective tariff on wheat or
her farmers will be ruined. What
tli8n are our wheat growers to do
when they are shut out of the
Liverpool wheat market? I ex
pect to start in with 350 tons of
beets per day, producing about
40 tons of sugar per day; then if
all things are favorable I will in
crease the plant to consume 700
tons of beets per day.
Why should our farmers be sat
isfied to about get back an old
dollar for a now one in wheat
growing with such a prospect in
view? I predict that England
will be compelled to put a duty
on wheat and then that whole
interest will be gone. One-hundred-dollar
land should produce
twenty tons per acre, worth $80
brought to the factory. Then the
beet pulp will feed cattle and
keep good two years, and that we
will give to the fwmM when we
ihave got out the sugar. Then,
also, the lime used in the process
will fertilize the soil, which will
constantly improve. The beet
crop can be raised only once in
three years on some land. Ger
many is now exporting annually
600,000 tons of beet sugar and
consuming 400,000 tons. The
German farmers could not live
without beet culture. I believe
this will be the greatest industry
ever started in the United States."
A Sudden Death.
The Yaquina Post furnishes the
following account of a difficulty
which occurred a few days ago at
Philomath, -Benton county, be
tween Oscar Wood and George
Logsden, and of the sudden death
of the latter:
It seems that George Logsden
was dealing three-card monte, at
which Oscar Wood was betting.
Some words passed between them,
when Geonre iumped up and made
for Oscar, who hit him in the mouth
with his fist, knocking him down
Geonre srot uo and came at Oscar
again, when Oscar expostulated,
O O i
telling him he was no match lor
him, he was not mad at him
and would not fight him.
Oscar then went away.
Soon after George was seen with
a bottle of whisky, which, after
absorbing the contents, he threw
away and went to bed. About 2
oclock the boys heard a noise in
his tent as of some one struggling
for breath, when they rushed in,
and findiug him in a sort of a
spasm, they raised him up and he
soon recovered. Later some one
told him his horse was loose, he
Went out caught and tied him.
Just before morning the same
noise as of some struggling for
breath was heard in his tent, when
friends went in and raised. lum to
a sitting posture, when he gave a
few gasps and died. He had bu n
drinkintr heavily; antl'to thisis"as
crihed his death.

healthy Liver. When the
Liver is torpid the Bow
