If the Liver be
comes torpid, if the
bowels arc constipated, or it tbe stomwih
fails to perform its functions properly, use
Ayer's Pills. They are invaluable.
For some years I was a victim to Liver
Complaint, in conseauence of -which I
suffered from General Debility and Indi
gestion, a lew Doxe3 ot Ayer's fills
restored me to perfect health. W.T.
Brightney, Henderson, W. Va.
For years I have relied more upon
Ayer's Pills than anything else, to
Regulate
my bowels. These Pills are mild in ac
tion, and do their work thoroughly. I
have used them, with good effect, in
cases of Rheumatism and Dyspepsia.
G. F. Miller, Attleborough, Mass.
Ayer's 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 bo without them.
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 .rnis, anu soon regained
mv eustoffiarv strength and vfcor.
John C. Pattison, Lowell, Nebraska.
Last spring I suffered greatly from a
troublesome humor on my side. In spito
of every effort 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 freo
from pain, ray food digested properly, tho
sores on my body commenced healing,
and, in less than one month, I was cured.
Samuel D. White, Atlanta, Ga.
I have long used Ayer's Pills, in my
family, and believe them to be tho best
pills made. S. C. Dardcn, Darden, Miss.
My wife and little girl were taken with
Dysentery a few days ago, and I at once
began giving them small doses of Ayer's
Pills, tliinkincl would call a doctor if the
disea.se became any worse. In a short
time the bloody discharges stopped, all
pain went away, ana neaitn was restored.

SOME PUN AND A TEW PACTS.
An exchange- has the following
item, which may seem to be all
right, but it will get some poor
fellow's back broke yet if strictly
follewed:
"An Illinois justice has decided
thai 'courtship is a public necessity,
and must not be mtrrupted; there
fore if a young man wanted to
kiss a girl, he might put her father
out of the room first if he liked."
The publication of the above
may cause some smart young man
to do something he will regret.
The lame, sickly looking father of
a girl may come into the parlor
some night and find the warmhaired
youth on tne sofa with the girl,
and when the old man speaks
of its being time to put a stop to
such nonsense, the young man,
with the above judicial decision in
his mine, will tell his prospective
father-in-law to wipe off his vest
and go to bed. The old man will
then spit dn his hands and grasp
the warmhaired young man by the
county seat and tie him up in a
double bow knot and pin a scar on
him, and throw him out on the
path to the gate, and he will turn
and slap the girl across where the
dress is pleated, and she will go
up stairs with hand on her heart as
it were, and the old man will jump
up and say "whoop!" The young
men of this country have gall
enough about visiting girls in tho
evening, at their homes without
filling their heads with any such
idea in regard to their legal rights.
There are few fathers who -would
quietly submit to being told to go
away by a young man with a striped
necktie and pants too short at the
bottom. These sparkers are looked
upon by parents as a nuisance, and
often they are right. Nine-tenths
of the sparking is done by boys
who haven't got their growth, and
they look so creen that it is laugh
able to the old folks to look at
them. They haven't generally got
a second shirt, and thev are no
more qualified to gpt married than
a steer is fit to preach. And yet mar
rying is about the first thing they
think of. A green boy, without a
dollar, present or prospective, talk
ing about marrying is a spectacle
for gods and men. He should be
reasoned with, and if he will not
quit until he is able to support i
wife and to know the difference
betweenlove and passion, he sluui'd
be quarantined or put in a conent
for such cases. Nine-tenths of the
unhappy marriages is the result of
green human calves being allowed
to run at large in the society pas
ture without any yokes on them.
They marry and have children be
fore they do mustaches; they are
fathers of twins before the are
proprietors of two pair of pants,
and the little girls they marry are
old women before they are twenty
years old. Occasionally one of
these goosling marriages turns out
all right, but it is a clear case of
luck. If there was a law against
young galoots sparking and marry
ing before they have got a!l.of their
teeth cut, we suppose the little
cusses would evade it some way,
but there ought to be a sentiment
against it. It is time enousrh lor
these bantams to think of finding
a pullet when they have raised
money by their own work to buy
a bundle of laths to build a hen
house. But they see a girl who
looks cunning and they are afraid
there is not going to be girls
enough to go around, and they be
gin to get in their work real spry,
and before they own a cook-stove
or bed-stead, they have to get up
in the night and go after the doc
tor, so frightened that thev run
themselves out of breath, and abuse
the doctor because he don t run
too, ana wnen ne gets there lie
finds there is not linen enough
to wrap up a doll baby. It is about
this time that a young man begins
to realize that he has been a co
lossal fool, and as he flies around
to heat water, and bring in the
bath tub, and goes whooping after
his mother or her mother, he turns
pale around the gills, and his hair
turns red in a single night, and he
calls on high heaven to witness
that if he lives until morning, which
he has doubts about, he will turn
over a new leaf and never get
married until he is older. And in
the morning the green looking
"father" is around before the drug
storo is open, with no collar on,
his hair sticking every way, his eyes
bloodshot and bis frame nervous,
waiting for the clerk to open the
door so that he can get some saffron
to make tea of. Less than a year
ago he thought he was the greatest
man there was anywhere, but as
he sits there in the house that
morning with his wedding coat
rusty and shiny, and his pants
frayed at the bottom and patched
at the elbow and the nurse puts in
his arms a little roll of flannel
with a baby hid in it, he holds it as
he would a banana, and as he looks
at the girl wife on the bed, and
thinks that there is not provisions
enough in the house to feed a
canary, a lump comes into his
throat and he says to himself that
if he had it to do over again he
would leave this little girl at home
to grow up with her mother, and
he would wait till he had $G to buy
baby flannel and 10 to pay the
doctor.
Distress After Eatirc.
This result of indigestion will no
Iouger be experienced if Simmons Lner
Regulator is taken after each meal. It
is such a good digestor, and so mild and
pleasant in its effect that it is used by
many.after a hearty meal, to insure good
digestion. The liesnilator doe not
nauseate or irritate the stomach, but cor
rects acuiiiy, dispels foul gases, allays
irritation and assists the stomach in its
digestion.

Bitters, which settles the stomach at once
and prevents Its disturbance. To all trav
elers and tourists, whether by sea or land, it
presents a happy medium between the naus
eous or ineQectaal resources of the medicino
chest, and the problematical benefit denv
able from an unmedicated alciiohc stimu
lant, no matter how pure. The jarnng of a
railroad car often produces stomachic dis
orders akin to that caused by the rollins of
a ship. For this the bitters is a prompt and
certain remedy. The use of brackish water,
particularly on long voynces In the tropics,
ineUtably breeds disorders of the stomach
and bowels. Hostetter's stomach Bitters
mixed with impure water nullifies its impar
ities. Similarly it counteracts malarial and
other prejudicial influences of climate or at-mo-;liere,
as well as the effects of exposure
and fatigue. Use it for kidi.e complaints,
