They are invaluable. For some years I was a victim to Liver Complaint, m consequence of 'which I suffered from General Debility and Indi gestion. A few boxes of Ayer's Pills restored me to perfect health. W. T. Brightney, Henderson, w. Va. For years I have relied moro upon Ayer's Pills than anything else, to Regulate my bowels. These Pills are mild in ac tion, and do their work thoroughly. I havo used them, with good effect, in cases of Rheumatism and Dyspepsia. G. F. Miller, Attleboroush, Mass. Ayer'a Pills cured me of Stomach and Liver troubles, from which I had suffered for years. I consider them the best pills made, and would not be without them. Morris Gates, Downsville, If. Y. T was attacked with Bilious Fever, which was followed by Jaundice, and was so dangerously ill that my friends despairedof myrecovery. 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 effort to cure this eruption, it in creased until the flesh became entirely raw. I wa3 troubled, at the samo time, with Indigestion, and distressing pains in The Bowels. By tho 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 onemonth.Iwas cured. Samuel D. White, Atlanta, Ga. I have long used Ayer's Pills, in my family, and believe them to bo the best pills made. S. C. Darden, Darden, Miss.

Jousson : Co., 1009 Main St., llichmond, Va. V & Tie una Watoo A Land Decision Modified. "Washington, May 14. Secre tary Vilas has modified the decis ion of the commissioners of the general land officers in rejecting the section of the Northern Pacific railroad company for lots 15, -t and five and one half of a section ot land in section 7 township 9 north, range 4 west, Vancouver, V. 1., and allowing Andy P. Anderson to purchase this land under the act of January 31, 1885. This land is within the limit of the grant to the Oregon Central railroad com pany, by act of May 4, 1870, and within the limits of the grant made to the Northern Pactfic railroad company by the joint resolution of May 31," 1870. The Northern Pacific company appeals from the decision of the commissioner, argmg that the grant to the Oregon Central had not embraced lands outside the state o! Oregon, and that this tract be ing in Washington territory was not included in that grant. The question had been previously con sidered, and it was held that the grant to the Oregon Central did extend into Washington territory. The secretary holds that the North ern Pacific had no legal claim to this land, as at the date of the grant to the Northern Pacific Co., and of its definite location, the land was embraced in the grant to the Oregon Central road, and therefore excepted from the grant to that company. By act of January 31, 1S85, granted lands along the un completed portions of the Oregon Central road were declared for feited to the United States and re stored to the public domain. Andy R. Anderson applied at the local land office, but as the record does not satisfactorily disclose the na ture of claimant's alleged settle ment, the secretary has directed that he be given sixty days in which to furnish evidence as will show his compliance with the law, and that the purchase be held in abeyance until such evidence is produced. The Boisterous Atlantic. Is a terror to timid vovagers. scarcely le;s en account of the ptrlls of th deep than the al most certaiuity of sea sickness. 'I lie best curatlvo otmal doner Is Uostetter's Stomach Hitlers, which settles the stomach at once and prevents its disturbance. To all trav elers and tourists, whether bv sea or land, it presents a happy medium belw ecn the naus eous or ineflectaal resources of the ireilicine chest, and the problematical bcnellt denv ab.e from an unmedicated sdcho'.lc stimti lant, no matter how pure. The jarnrg of a railroad car often produces stomachic dis orders akin to that caused by the rolling of a ship. For tills the bitters is a prompt and certain remedy. The use of brackish water. particularly on long voyages In the tropics, inevitably breeds disorders of the stomach and bowes.

Similarly It csunteracts malarial and other prejudicial influences of climate or nt mospheic, as well as the effects of poture and fatigue. Use tt for kidney complaints, rheumatism and debility. The Work of Science. Il is probable that in a few j'ears mankind will have no past. Myth after myth, legend after legend, dogma after dogma, belief after belief, idol after idol, has been ruthlessly destroyed by science. Like the fabled monster which it declares never existed it lives up on itself, proving its own unverity, for it has thriven upon the destruc tion of even universally accepted scientific doctrines. It is not enough to assert that there was no Adam, no serpent, no Paradise, no fall, no Noah, no Babel, no Moses. It has been thought necessary to demonstrate that there could have been no demons, no fairies, no angels on earth except those in women's form, of course albiet all the angels in Scripture and Milton are men. The credulous earth has been listening too will ingly to all this effacement of the past of itself down even to the proposal that there whs no Shakes peare. Before this proposition has been established, up comes a cool British scientist, and, without fear ol gods or men, affirms that there are no thunderbolts and nevei were. The scientist will have his way in time. The world will linger in tho dictionaries for a few j'ears, and perhaps be marked, while some of this generation are still living "Ob's. bune.

The Astorian is urging upon the people of Clatsop county the building of a railroad to Clatsop beach. No better suggestion than this could be made. Such a road would be a paying investment from the start. C'atsop beach, as a summer resort, possesses attrac tions better than any other locality on either the Oregon or Washing ton territory coast, but the long ride of thirteen miles over dry. liot sand, which rises in clouds and fills the eyes, ears, nose and mouth has kept the uumber who have chosen this resort a very limited one. With a railroad to Clatsop beach, three or four new hotels would be neeeded, while the farm ers of Clatsop plains would have to increase the number of their cows and chickens, in order to be able to supply the increased de mand for fresh milk, butter and eggs. Of course the road would pay during the summer; why not, also, in winter? The farmers of the plains would get rich during the summer, and in the winter would make frequent trips to Astoria and buy the little com forts of life which they now look upon too much as luxuries. As toria is growing rapidly, and will furnish a continually increasing market for tho Clatsop plains farmers' products. The railroad would make the farmer a subur ban citizen, afford the merchant a chance to escape from business cares without losing too - much time, and be a means of mutual benefit to both classes in every way. Oregonian, 15. Distress After Eating. This result of Indigestion will no louder be experienced if Simmons Liver Regulator is taken alter each meal. It is such a fjood dicestor, and so mild and pleasant in its effect that it is used by many, after a lieai ty meal, to insure good digestion. The Regulator does not nauseate or irritate tliestoniacli, but cor rects acidity, dispels foul gases, allays irritation and assists the stomach in its digestion. In the Postoffice at Concord, N. H., tho Postmaster found a pouoli the other day which had been lost nineteen years, and which con tained 118 letters for that city. There were three registered letters with money in them, and their non receipt had upset half a dozen offices. If your blood is vitiated, cleanse it without delay by the use of Ayer's Sarsapanlla. Two ragged children, who were arrested iu Chicago while gather ing cigar stumps on the streets, explained that they sold the dis carded weeds to a fellow-country man for 15 cents a pound, and that they were "made into cigarettes. The number of women who sell newspapers on the streets in New York is constantly increasing. The newsboys donot hesitate to mob a man or haze a boy who invades their territory, but they never in terfere with these women. Canada proposes to make a loan of 25,000,000 for the purpose of paying off tho floating debt of the Dominion and for carrying on the public works authorized by parlia ment.

Voiy few persons arc aware of the immense load the nerves are often subjected to, until the crash comes and they break down altogether.
