The First Sign
Of failing health, whether in the form ol
Night Sweats and Nervousness, or in a
sense of General "Weariness and Los3 ol
Appetite, should suggest the use ol
Ayer's Sarsaparilla. This preparation
is most effective, for giving tone and
strength to the enfeebled system, pro
moting the digestion and assimilation ol
food,. restoring tho nervous forces to
their normal condition, and for purify
ins, enriching, and vitalizing the blood.
Failing Health.
Ten years ago my health hegan to fail.
I was troubled with a distressing Cough,
Night Sweats, Weakness, and Nervous
ness. I tried various remedies pre
scribed by different physicians, out
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 have
also prescribed it as a tonic, as well as an
alterative, and must say that I honestly
believe it to be tho best blood medicine
ever compounded. "W. F. Fowler, M. D.,
V. D. S., Greenville, Tenn.
Dyspepsia Cured.
It would be impossible for mo to de
scribe what I suffered from Indigestion
and Headache up to the time I began
taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla. I was under
the 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 have 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 the
blood. It is, without doubt, the most
reliablo blood purifier yet discovered.

SULLIVAN AND KILEAm
A Big Deal n The Lumber Business.
Melbourne Aug, 17. All attempts
to move the derelict ship John T.
Berry having failed, two submarine
mines, charged with 400 and 200
pounds of guncotton, were exploded
underneath the vessel. These freed
her from her anchors and cables.
She then righted herself, but it was
soon found she was sinking and by
neit morning she had foundered
in deep water.
A BIG DEAIi.
MiNTEAroLis, Aug. 17. A promi
nent lower river lumberman says:
"I have positive information of a gi
gantic lumber trust is now pending
between members of the lower river
logging companies and Borne of the
prominent pine owners of Minneapo
lis. The lumbermen of this city can
deny just as long as they choose that
report has any foundation, but the
present negotiations are nearly com
pleted. In less than three months
the Mississippi Logging company
will be the proprietors of the greater
part of the pine lands tributary tor
the Mississippi."
The gentleman stated farther that
David Joyce of Lyons, Iowa, who is
one of the heaviest stockholders in
tho Mississippi Logging company,
was the man who worked up the deal
for the purchase of the St. Paul
booms, and that he is at the present
time interested in them.

El Paso, Aug. 17. It has recently
teen published in various newspapers,
particularly in the New Orleans
Times-Democrat and the San Fran
cisco Examiner, that the Chinesein
El Paso had organized for campaign
purposes, and that Sam Hing, a rich
railroad contractor and merchant,
was at the head of the movement
There is not one word of truth in tho
report Hardly one in a dozen among
the many hundreds of Mongolians
here know anything about the polit
ical status of this country, and none
take any interest in it All they care
for is to make and savo up money to
go back to Ohina with. Sam Hing
has large contracts with the south
western railroads for furnishing la
bor. He disclaims any participation
in political affairs. He says the time
is very far distant when the Chinese
population will be a factor in the pol
itics of this country.
SULLIVAN AND KILBAIN.
Paris, Aug. 17. Richard K. Fox,
through the Paris ofiice of the New
York Herald, has proffered a check
for five thousand dollars, at the
same time asking the pnblication of
a letter offering to back Jack Kilrain
against Sullivan or any other man
in the world for 10,000 or more, the
deposit to be held until September
30th, the fight to be for the money
and the Police Cazette diamond belt,
the men to fight not sooner than -six
months from the date of signing
articles, the second deposit of 2,500
a side to be made with the Sporting
Life at London, and the third and
last deposit io be made with the New
York Clipper as final stakeholder.
Fox said Kilrain was a little fat but
he would soon reduce his weight,
and, in case of a match, Mitchell
would be trainer. Both sail soon for
New York.
Biliousness.
We have tested its virtues, personally,
and know that for Dyspepsia, Bilious
ness and Throbbing Headache, it is the
best medicine the world ever saw. We
tried forty other remedies before Sim
mons Liver ltegulator, but none of them
gave us more than temporary relief;
the .Regulator not only relieved but
cured us. II. H. Jokes, Ed. Telegraph
and Messenger, Macon. Ga.
The popular idea that a razor needs
rest occasionally has a scientific found
ation in the case of lino razors. The
grain of the best Swedish razors runs
in a diagonal direction from the upper
end to the outer point toward the liamllo
Constant stropping will twist the steel
until the grain sets up and down, and
steady use draws the grain still farther
over. When it gets into this condition
it cannot be kept sharp, but If laid away
and left alone for awhile the grain will
resume its first position and the razor
be as good as new again.

THE CHAMPION OAHAED.
A Eeport That Uleveland Will IfotEtm.
Philadelphia, Aug. 17. The
Evening Item this afternoon
prints, with double loads, a report
that a private letter was received
in Philadelphia from Washington
to-day, and written by a well
known Democratiqileader, convey
ing the startling but evidently
well authenticated information
that president Cleveland's long
delayed letter will decline the
nomination tendered him at St.
Louis. The letter goes on to say
that the president lias been as
tounded at the' protection feeling
exhibited in the good old Demo
cratic party since the Mills bill
was passed, and that he fears a
disruption in the party ranks of
such magnitude that another set
back of twenty-four years would
ensue if he went before the coun
try on that issue For him to
hedge while under fire would
never do, and the only way to save
his party from overwhelming de
feat is tb withdraw and reconvene
the convention in the interest of a
new candidate, with a pronounced
protection record.
It is hinted that in spite of cer
tain factional feeling Hon. Sam J.
Randall would be the man emin
ently qualified to lead the Demo
cratic party to victory under the
new banner.
The editor of the Item sent a
telegraphic query to private sec
retary Lamont, asking if the re
port were true, but no answer had
been received up to the time the
paper went to press.
