ROFULA
I do not believe that
Ayer's Sarsaparilla
has an equal as a cure
for Scrofulous Hu
mors. It is pleasant
to take, gives strength
to the body, and pro
duces a more perma
nent result than any
medicine I ever used.
E. Haines, North
Lindale, Ohio.
I have used Ayer's
Sarsaparilla, in my
family, for Scrofula,
and know, if it is
taken faithfully it -will
thoroughly eradicate
this terrible disease.

For forty years I

am completely cured.

I have suffered, for

which was so severe

and, in a few months,
was cured. Susan L.

Ayer's Sarsaparilla
is superior to any

Between Life and Death.
Washington, June 4. Gen.
Sheridan is now lying weak, and
exhausted, and in a comatose con
dition. He has only rallied very
feebly from the attack which
nearly caused his de$th. The hem
orrhage which preceded the attack
of heart failure came from the
lungs, but was not accompanied
by coughing. The blood emitted
was dark and thickly clotted. A
recurrence of the heart failure fol
lowed closely upon the hemor
rhage. The pulse beat feebler
and still more feeble, his breath
ing grew exceedingly laborious,
and the sick man's face assumed a
bluish tint. His heart ceased to
beat for a few seconds, and the
anxious doctors bending over him
thought all was over.
Prior to this time, however, ex
traordinary measures had been
taken to prevent or lessen the at
tack which they knew was coming,
and his system, when it seemed
that life was at an end, slowly and
weakly responded to the treatment
administered, and gradually a
slight rally took place. A gal
vanic battery was applied to his
neck and back, and at last the pa
tient was brought from the verge
of the grave to consciousness
again. He lay back, exhausted,
and every one in the room re
mained anxiously watching, and
dreading a return ot the attack.
It was the worst of all attacks, and
gave way less readily to treatment.
He is extremely weak, but at times
his mind is clear, though intervals
of consciousness are followed br
others during which he appears to
only slightly realize what is going
on around him. He does not talk
at all, and the doctors ever since
his iungs became affected, have
done all in their power to dissuade
him from using his voice.
"It JIakes lie Tired"
To read all these advertisements of
medicines upon medicines when they
enumerate with such particularity and
minuteness of detail, alt the diseases
mankind, womankind, and even "baby
kind,'' are heirto. llow cheap one feels
to commence what she supposes to be a
tragic or tender-love story, read until
her sympathies arp so thoroughly
aroused that she can scarcely sleep
without knowing whether they were
married or not, and then have" it end
something like this: "Dr. Pierce's Fa
vorite Pieseription is theonlv positive
cure for all classesof "female weakin-."'
such as prolapsus, inflammation, pei m.l
ca! pains, ele. For sale bv all drug

"Boosting" a town should not he
done by tho newspaper men, alone,
but the citizens generally should
take a hand in it. This is true
and unless they do it the news
papers might as well save their
breath. It requires something
besides talk to build towns and
cities. The best directed and
most energetic newspaper work
will not accomplish much if the
citizens lean back in their chairs
and take it easy. Newspapers are
always ready to help, and to work
any where and in any way that is
for the best interest of the com
munity, but the effort fails of its
purpose when thev do not have
the co-operation of the business
and property owning public.
It is beyond question that Ayer's
Cherry Pectoral heads the list of
remedies for disease:-, of the throat
and lungs.
The Matnet gives the follow
ing as an infallible preservative of
eggs: Take a teacupful of salt,
and lime the size of an egg, and
pour boiling water on them.
When cold, drain off the liquor
and put it on the eggs. If too
strong there will be a crust on top;
if so add more water. This is for
two gallons of liquor. There is
no recipe that beats this, and it
can be relied upon. Eggs put
down in August and used in April
are just as fresh and make just as
nice frostings as newly laid ones.

Blaine and Conkling.
New York, June 4. The Her
ald to-day prints a ten column
letter, written by Geo. C. Gorham,
in which he undertakes to do jus
tice to Roscoe Conkling, in the
controversy with Blaine. Gorham
says: Referring to the famous scene
in the house of representatives in
1866, the records of the congress
sional debates show that the whole
affair was most discreditable to
Blaine, and that he was rebuked
and humiliated by the house, to
which he had appealed, by a vote
wanting only four to make it unani
mous.
Gorham quoted freely from the
records to show that Conkling'was
a victim of conspiracy, wherein
Blaine, Garfield and Reid figured.
Conkling was a silent martyr in
intrigue and falsehood. He ac
cuses the conspirators with hav
ing used the president and state
department to further their per
sonal schemes, and punish stal
wart republicans. Gorham's let
ter is the fulfillment of a promise
made to Conkling.

The Mollie Adams.
If senator Fry is accurate in his
details of the offenses the Mollie
Adams received at the hands of
Canadian authorities it is difficult
to see how the fishery treaty could
have been negotiated without an
apology from the British Domin
ion for the conduct of tho Cana
dian authorities. The Mollie
Adams, according to senator Frye,
put into a Canadian pore during a
storm and when the gale had
started she hoisted sail and started
away. Captain Quigley of the
cruiser Terror fired a shot across
her bows, which brought her to,
and she was ordered into port un
der penalty of $400 fine if she did
not return. The Mollie Adams
went back to port, but had
to pay the fine all the
same. The senator proceeded to
state how the captain of the Mol
lie Adams hoisted the American
flag and how the captain of the
Terror ordered, it hauled down,
and asked the senate if such
things could go without a reckon
ing in former days. It is not on
record that the senate made an
answer to this somewhat pregnant
inquiry but it is probable that when
the senate votes on the treaty the
answer will be found in the re
cord of the uvea and hops.
It is not true that the people of
