These Pills are purely vegetable in their composition. They contain neither calomel nor any other dangerous drug, and maybe taken with perfect safety by persons of all ages. I was a great sufferer from Dyspepsia and Constipation. I had no appetite, and was constantly afflicted with Head ache and Dizziness. I consulted our family doctor, who prescribed for me, at various times, without affording more than temporary relief. I finally com menced taking Ayer's Pills. In a short time my digestion and appetite IMPROVED my bowels wcro regulated, and, by the time I finished two boxes of these Pills my tendency to headaches had disap peared, and I became strong and well. uanus M. .Logan, Wilmington, Dei. I was troubled, for over a year, with Loss of Appetite, and General Debility. I commenced taking Ayer's Pills, and, before finishing half a box of this medi cine, my appetite and strength were re stored. C. O. Clark, Danbury, Conn. Ayer's Pills are the best medicine known to me for regulating the bowels, and for all diseases caused by a disordered Stomach and Liver. I suffered for over three years with Headache, Indigestion, and Constipation. I had no appetite, and was weak and nervous most of the time. BY USING threo boxes of Ayer's Pills, and at the same time dieting myself, I was com pletely cured. My digestive organs arc now in good order, and I am in perfect health. P. Lockwood, Topeka, Ivans. Ayer's Pills have benefited me wonder fully. For months I suffered from Indi gestion and Headache, was restless at night, and had a bad taste in my mouth every morning. After taking one box of Ayer's Pills, all these troubles dis apieared, my food digested well, and my sleep was refreshing. Henry C. Hemmenway, Rockport, Ias3. I was cured of the Piles by the use of Ayer's Pills. They not only relieved mo of that painful disorder, but give me in creased vigor, and restored my health. John Lazarus, St. John, N.

There used to be n place called Patagonia, ft appears on our ge ographies now as "a drear and un inhabitable waste, upon which herds of wild horses and cattle graze, that are hunted for their flesh by a few bands of savage In dians of immense stature.' I am quoting from a school book pub lished in 18SG, and in common use in this country. The same geog raphy gives similar information about '-the Argentine Confedera tion." It makes the Argentines roar with rage to call their country "the Argentine confederation." It would be just as polite and proper to call this the "Confederate States of America." A bitter, bloody war was fought to wipe that name off the map, but our publishers still insist upon keeping it there. It is not a confederation, it is a Nation, with a big "N," like ours one and inseparable, united we stand, divided we fall, and all that sort of thing the Argentine Re public. To call it an3'thing else is an insult to the patriots who fought to make it so, and a reflec tion upon our own intelligence. Several years ago Patagonia was divided between Chili and the Argentine Republic, the ministers from the United States to those two countries doing the carving. The summits of the Cordilleras were fixed as the boundary lines. Chili took the Strait of Magellan and the strip along the Pacific coast between the mountains and sea, and the Argentine Republic the pampas, the archipelago of Terra del Fuego being divided be tween them. Since the partition ranchmen have been pushing southward with great rapidity, and now the vast territory is practically occupied. There are no more wild cattle or horses there than in Kan sas, and the dreary, uninhabitcJ wastes of . Patagonia have gone into oblivion with the "Great American Desert." The remnant of a vast tribe of aborigines .still occupies the interior, but the In dian question of ttie Argentine Republic was solved in a summary way. There was considerable an noyance on the frontier from bands of roaming savages, who used to come north in the 'winter time, steal cattle, rob and ravish, and the outposts of civilization were not safe. Gen. Roca, the Sheridan of the Ri or Plate, was sent with a brigade of cavalry to the frontier to prevent this sort of thing. East and west across the territory runs the Rio Xegro, a swift, turbid stream like the Missouri, with high banks. Fifty miles or so from the moun tains the river makes a turn in its course, and leaves a narrow path way through which everything that enters or leaves Patagonia by land must go. Across this pass of fifty Gen. Roca dug a ditch twelve feet deep and fifteen feet wide. The Indians, to the number of several thousand, were north when the work was done, raiding the settlements. As spring came they turned to go southward as usual, in a long caravan with their stolen horses and cattle. Roco galloped around their rear, driving them night and day before him. "When they reached the ditch the became bewildered, for they could not cross it, and alter a lew tia3's oi slaughter, the remnant that sur vived surrendered, and were dis tributed through the army as sol diers, while the women were sent into a semi-slavery among the ranchmen they had robbed. The dead animals and men were buried together in the ditch, and there has been no further annoyance from Indians on the frontier. The few that remain seldom come northward, but remain around Punta Arenas, the onlv settlement in the strait, hunting the ostrich and other wild game, trading the skins for whisky, and making themselves as wretched as possible. The robes they wear are made of the skins of the guanaco, a species of the llama, and the breasts of young ostriches. There is nothing prettier than an ostrich robe, but each one represents the slaughter of from sixteen to twenty young birds, and they are getting rare and expensive as the birds are becoming exterminated, as our buffaloes have been.

J -T-L; n lnrrn ninrioor mime X UIO V l-wivi wwww ib&j ter died at it v. m. yesterday at Walla Walla, W. T., where he had made his home since his re tirement from the charge of the Yakima Indian agency about four years ago. Mr. N ilbur came to this coast in 18-18, under appoint ment as "missionary to Oregon." His first work on this coast was at Salem, where he had charge of the "Oregon Institue," since Willam ette University. He established the Methodist church in this city, building the old Taylor street church and the "Female Semi nary," after which he took charge of the Umpqua district, where he remained four years, and was af terward presiding elder of the Up per Willamette district. For 24 years he was in charge of the Ya kima Indian agency, since which time he served the church as ceneral educational and church extension agent in the Columbia river conference. In every department of his work he proved himself a man of rare ex ecutive force, and has left an un sullied reputation, an enduring usefulness, as a legauj' to his church and the country he loved so well. Only a few weeks ago his wife, with whom he had lived fifty-six years, died and was buried in Lee Mission cemetery, near Salem, where his remains will als"o bo de posited. His body will be brought to this city and memorial services will be held in Taylor street church on Sunday at 11 o'clock, and his remains will then be conveyed to Salem, where services will also be had at 10 a. m. on Monday. Ad dresses will be delivered here bv Rev. II. K. Hines, I). 1)., and by Rev. I. D. Driver, and perhaps by others.

Abontevery-lorGdayIam receiving direct from the manufacturers naw goods in the following lines, which are sold to me at the lowest inside figures on the same terms as all such goods are sold to merchants. That is, regular time according to the lines, some are 30, some CO, some 90 days, and mostly all 4 months, and at times of longer periods, subject to the discounts if paid any time between time of purchase and the time the bills become due. Goods now days are mostly sold direct by manu facturers, quantity cuti no figure whatever, and the merchants -who MEET THEIR BILLS PROMPTLY, and IN FDLL WHEN DUE, are the ones who can put forth any claims as to being one of the most or only reliable husines3 houses in any city, (providing all other things are equal). And whereas the patronage of an appreciative public (with my style of doing business )has enabled me to discount n great deal of my bills since starting (June 1, 1887), and meeting EVERY bill promptly when due up to the present date, I can safely and truly say that I buy and sell my goods as low as they are legitimately bought and sold on tho Pacific Coast, which lines of goods comprises " Men's Clothing, Boys' Clothing-, Men's and Boys' Ovcrshirts, Hats, Caps, Trunks, Valises, Umbrellas, Waterproof Clothing of all kinds, &c, &c. 2r?
