The First Sign Of falling health, whether in the form ol Night Sweats and Nervousness, or in a senso of General Weariness and Loss of Appetite, should suggest the use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. This preparation i3 most effective for giving tone and strength to the enfeebled system, pro moting the 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 distres3ingCough, Night Sweats, Weakness, and Nervous ness. I tried various remedies pre scribed by different physicians, but becamo so weak that I could not go up 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 havo also prescribed it as a tonic, as well as an alterative, and must say that I honestly uciiuvc it iu ue uiu oest uioou raeuicmo evercompounded. W.F. Fowler, M.D., D. D. S., Greenville, Tenn. Dyspepsia Cured. It would bo impossible for mo to de scribe what I suffered from Indigestion and Headache up to tho time I began taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla. I was under tho 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, Springfield, Mass. I havo been greatly benefited by the prompt use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. It tones and invigorates the system, regu lates tho action of the digestive and assimilative organs, and vitalizes tho blood. It is, without doubt, the most reliable blood purifier yet discovered. H.

"The Komans Were Like Brothers In The Brave Days of Old1." "I have ridden on horseback through the forests and over the hills of all the republics of Central America," said Mr. Fred. Gaert ner, a mining engineer, who sev enteen years ap;o began prospect ing for gold and silver in Costa Rica, and is to-day one of the wealthiest as well as the most popular of the residents of the small but prosperous and inde pendent coast territory, "and I am familiar with the social customs and business habits of all of them, from Mexico to Colombia. Each claims to be a little in advance of the others iu respect to internal resources, which are chiefly coffee, gold and silver. They all labor more or less under difficulties of transportation and none of them will be able to develop its wealth to any marked extent until the pack-mule gives way to the rail road. My own impression is that Cobta Rica is further advanced than an' other of the republics; but at all events she can afford to wait. She has a delightful cli mate and the atmosphere is"so dry and pure, though always flavored and vitalized by the influences of the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, that I believe it can restore a con sumptive to health if "his disease has not made too pronounced a progress." 'But it is the friendly feeling that actuates the residents of Cos ta Rica and draws them, socially, so firmly together that it makes life in the little republic so pleas ant. "We are always willing to as sist a stranger if he drifts to our coast, but we greatly prefer that he should stay away, for we are quite sufficient to ourselves; but if a newcomer is really anxious to get on, and is willing to work and make himself a useful , member of the community, and if he knows something worth working at in our territory, and is, besides, a good fellow, with gentlemanly in stincts, and no objectionable1 hab its, we give him every assistance in our power, and he will be likely to succeed. But if, for any reason we come to the conclusion, after observing him for a few weeks, that he is an undesirable por-xr. to have among us, we get rid of him in a very summary way in deed. We take up subscriptions, and a delegation waits upon him and says: "'We are very sorry sir, but there does not seem to be any opening for you here. Wo havo tried to help you, but, as you see, we havo failed. San Francisco is a large city and not much more than 4,000'miles away. You will certainly be able to obtain em ployment there. Here are a couple of hundred dollars for you to en able j'ou to pay your fare and set tle your wine bill on the voyage. You will be wise to sail by the next steamer, for you are sacrific ing your time to no purpose here.' " "He very seldom refuses to go. Ob, I can assure you we don't stand on ceremony in Costa Rica with a man when we have taken a dislike to him. A Henntlfiil Seal Skin Clonk. Is a becoming fcarment to a lady. If she has an elastic step, an air of craee and modesty, and the glow of health on hercheek.slie will always command admiration. Without these, no woman can appear to advantage; With sickly countenance, painful gait, and listless air.sho is an object of pity. How many American women daily drag out a wretched existence, ignorant of the blessing Cof perfect health! All her weaknesses can be cured by Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, the great specific for prolapsus, leucorrlica, ulceration and unnatural discharges. The only medicine sold by druggists, under a positive guarauteo of giving satisfac tion, or money re-funded, ltead guaran tee printed on its wrapper.

Labor statistics sent out from the Labor bureau at Washington make the statement that the aver age earnings or increase of wealth per annum to each workingraan 11 S300 per year." Ayer's Ague Cure is warranted to cure all malarial disorders, when taken according to directions. Sold bv all dealers in medicine.

Twenty-five years ago, East Saginaw, Mich., was a scattering hamlet, built here and there among and along the edges of the swamps and bayous bordering the Sagi naw river. The sawdust and debris of tho mills were used to fill up these inequalities more for the purpose of getting rid of the annoying accumulations, than from any well defined knowledge of the value of such material, or its pos ble use as a future soil. From year to year the work went on. The swamps and bayous were filled up, and soil was spread on top of the sawdust, of variable thicknesses, from sixteen inches to two feet. Strange as it may seem, there was no settling of the ground and heavy buildings were erected upon the soil thus made. These buildings are the best in the city, and show no cracked walls. Sew-, ers are dug through what was for merly a bed of sawdust, and while traces of the material can yet be found, still there is a clear evi dence of the transformation pro cess going on, beheld in each shovel of matter thrown out. It would be difficult to fully and clearly explain this process. It looks as though the exudations ri sing up lrom beneath the over-tying debris are continually acting as distilling elements, by which the granules of sawdust gather to themselves earth incrustations, and finally become a homogeneous conglomeration of original soil, without undergoing the action of decomposition. This 'Hypothesis may not be any clearer than mud, but it is certain that nna of the finest and most substantial ciiies in .Michigan rests secure to day on a bed of sawdust, which latter has resolved itself back into Us origi nal elements within a quarter ol a century. No home .should lie without it to an est disorders promptly. Iiich. if not taken in season, often develop into serious diseases. Uev. .lames M. Jtolllns, Pastor 3i. a. wuircn.a., raiment, va., writes: "1 have used Simmons Liver Itegulalor for many jears, having made it my only family medicine. Jly mother before me was very partial to it. It is a safe, good and reliable medicine for any dis order of the system and if used in time Is a gieat preventive of sicklies. Elections for one or moie state officers will be held in Alabama on August (Jib, in Arkansas on Sep tember 'id, Vermont on Septem ber 4th, Maine on September 10th, and Georgia on October od. These arc the only state elections which arc yet to be held this year earlier than November (ith, when the presidential election takes place. Ohio and Indiana have ceased to Le October states, and vote in November with most of the other states. Ayer's Sarsaparilla, operating through the blood, eradicates the scrofulous taint. It is estimated that not less than $500,000,000 arcinvpsted in watering-place and tquristb' resorts iu this country, the Jersey coast lead ing off with at least S100,000,000. An oil well struck at Findlay, Ohio, three weeks ago, produced 800 barrels in three hours, a greater out-put than has ever before been realized from one well in the same time.
