Coleman, Accountant, R MM The First Sign Of failing health, whether in the form ol Night Sweats and Nervousness, or in a sense of General "Weariness and Loss of Appetite, should suggest the use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. This preparation is most effective for giving tono and strength to the enfeebled system, pro moting tho digestion and assimilation of food,. restoring the nervous forces to their normal condition, and for purify ing, enriching, and vitalizing the blood. Failing Health. Ten years ago my health began to fail. I was troubled with a distressing Cough, Night Sweats, "Weakness, and Nervous ness. I tried various remedies pre scribed by different physicians, but became so weak that T rnnlil nnt. tm nn stairs without stopping to rest. My friends recommended me to try Ayer's Sarsaparilla, which I did, and I am now as healthy and strong as ever. Mrs. E. L. "Williams, Alexandria, Minn. I have used Ayer's Sarsaparilla, in my family, for Scrofula, and know, if it is taken faithfully, that it will thoroughly eradicate this terrible disease. I have rIso nrr soriliprl itnontnnip icttv11 na on alterative, and must say that I honestly liAlin.m 4- 4i"v Via 41is linn.- Lltml . . .1 1 2 .. ever compounded. "W. F. Fowler, M. D., D. D. S., Greenville, Tenn. Dyspepsia Cured. It would be impossible for me to de scribe what I suffered from Indigestion and Headache up to the time I began taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla. I was under the care of. various physicians, and tried a great many kinds of medicines, but never obtained more than temporary re lief. After taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla for a short time, my headache disap peared, and my stomach performed its duties more perfectly. To-day my health is completely restored. Mary Harley, Springlield, Mass. I liavo been greatly benefited by the prompt use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. It tones and invigorates the system, regu lates tho action of the digestivo and assimilative organs, and vitalizes the blood. It is, without doubt, tho most reliable blood imrifier yet discovered. H.

The fust land that the new day dawns upon is Easter island, about 230 miles west of the coast of Chile, South America; that is to say, this 14th of October breaks there within a few hours of the 13th having broken on the Ameri can coast to the east, and the two days run on alongside the 14th in Easter island and places west, the 13th in all places on the Amer ican continent. "We may, there fore, realize this idea that 3:32 an3r afternoon of our lives in As toria, the next day is commencing on the world, and is to be found at this little island in the Pacific ocean, whence in due course it will travel round to us. But to have thus the start of the world is not an unmitigated advantage of these islanders. Suppose one of them sails east to America, what is the result? He will find the' keep the day here under a different date, and he will have to reckon one day in his calendar twice over to put himself right with their no tions. On the other hand, if an American crosses from east to west this wonderful magic line where the da begins, he will find the dates in this fresh part of the world are one in advance of him, and he must needs strike a day out of his calendar to keep up with the times. This fact was curiously illustrated in the case of Ma gellan, tho Portuguese captain, who sailed around the world from east to west in 1522, and having crossed the magic line of "day's birth" in his wonderings, his cal endar became, of course, a day in the rear. The sailors weie com pletely ignorant of this, and find ing, on lauding at home, that their Sabbath was falling on a Monday, they accused one another of tam pering with the reckoning. It was not for some time that the true ex planation was discovered. The converse case is made the hinge of the plot in Jules Verne's "Round the World in Eighty Days," where the author depicts an eccentric Englishman, Phjneas Fogg, who made a wager that he would go round the world in eighty days. He accomplished his feat in whv he thought was eighty.one da: but on arriving in Loudon, fo:n-ii his friends anxiously expecting him, and discovered he had just won his wager. lie had crossed the magic line eastward, and had forgotten to subtract the da he had thus gained. To put the matter another way: In sailing round the world east ward, the days are each a little less than twenty-four hours, ac cording to the speed of the ship, as the sun is met every morning a little earlier. These little differ ences added together will amount in the course of the circumnaviga tion to twenty-four hours, giving the sailors an extra day, not in the imagination, but in sober truth, as they will actually have eaten an extra day's food and consumed an extra day's grog. On the other hand, in sailing westward, the sun is overtaken a little each day, and so each day is rather longer than twenty-four hours, and clock and watches are found to be too fast. This also will amount, in sailing round to the starting point again, to one whole day, by which the reckoning "has fallen in arrear. Tho eastern ship, thn, has gained a day, and the western ship has lost one, leading to this apparent paradox, that the former ship has a clear gain of two whole days over the latter, supposing them to have started and returned to gether. When your blood is impover ished the remedy is at hand. Take Ayer's Sarsaparilla. Death of Jas. Orummie. At 7 o'clock last evening, says the ATeics of the 3th, James Crummie, a logger, was brought to St. Vincent's hospital for med ical treatment The unfortunate man came from Cathlamet, where he met with an accident by which both legs were horribly fractured. It was apparent from the moment of his entrance to the hospital that death would result in a short time, as he was sorely hurt. At 12 o'clock Crummie's pains ceased, and he crossed the great divide. Indeed, death to a being in his condition ttrs a mercy. j JOAQUIN MILLEE'S SON. Sketch of the Life of the Young Man ' Now in Jail. The case of Hah Miller, who is confined in the county jail at Ne vada City, Cala., to await his trial for horse stealing is a peculiar one, considering the intelligence of the young man and the national rep utation achieved by his father. The name of Joaquin Miller is known wherever the English Ian guage is spoken. There is pretty clear prool ot tlie young man's guilt. He was caught with the horse. He seems to nave been knocked around from pillar to post without the influences of a heme: iial Miner was uorn ai Elk river, Curry count Or., on the 25th of July, 1860. A year after his birth his father, Joaquin Miller, removed to Canyon City, Grant count', where he located a mine, which he afterward sold, and in 1S74 went to Lane county, where he established a printing office. Hal was at that time five years old. His mother and father then separated, his mother taking the three children. His father went east, whore he has been un till the past few years. His moth er afterward left Lane county and went to San Francisco, where she delivered lectures and wrote for the papers, trying to earn money enough to give her children an education. Hal was the youngest child. He -ot very little school ing in San Francisco. "When they had been in San Francisco a little over a year, Mrs. Miller's health failed and she took a trip to the east, sending Hal to liw with his aunt at Coos bay. His uncle and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. Hilborn, lived on a hirm tiiree miles from the n wn of Marshfield. lie stavel wih ihetn two years, goiuir to scIh ol in the winter. The ic!.ool was ihree miles from the f.ir:n. and so he well earned the 'it;l teaching he received. At the ei! of two years his mother returned from tin east and took him t. Portland, where she again under took to rain a living by writing for the pi ess. She struggled through life until her sccintl m.ir riage. Unfortunately sin- married 1 man win proved to be a worth us drunkard. Being :i woman a ho was devoted to her children she became worried over her des titute condition and took a second trip to the east, again sending Hal to live with his aunt at Coos bay. He remained with her until the past year. His brother says he is a boy with a very good disposi tion, and has always heretofore been regarded as an honest aud "square" lad.

AKE SIMMONS LIVER REGULATOR For all Diseases of the Liver, Sidneys, Stomach and Spleen. This purely vegetable pre paration, now so celebrated as a Family Medicine, originated in the South in 1S28. It acts jrently on the Bowels and Aiuneys ana corrects the action of the Liver, and is, there fore, the best preparatory medlclne, whatever the sick ness may prove to be. In all common diseases it will, un assisted by any other medi cine, effect a speedy cure.
