SCROFULA
X do not believe that
Ayer's Sarsaparilla
has an equal as a enre
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.
"W.F.Fowler,M.D.,
Greenville, Tenn.
For forty years I
have suffered with
Erysipelas. I have
tried various remedies
for my complaint, but
found no relief until
I commenced using
Ayer's Sarsaparilla.
After taking ten bot

I have suffered, for
years, from Catarrh,
which was so severo
that it destroyed my
appetite and weak
ened my system.
After trying other
remedies, without re

Aver's Sarsanarilla
is superior to auv
blood purifier that I
ever tried. I havo
taken it for Scrofula,
Canker, and Salt
Rheum, and received
much benefit from it.
It is good, also, for

MAN ABB HIS FUN.
Man that is born of woman is of
few days and fond of fan.
In the beginning, when his turn
let is full of milk and his soul of
content, he lies upon his back and
kicks his heels in the air. He
says "ga-ga" and "goo-goo," and
that is fun.
Being grown older, he climbs a
tree and falls out therof; he goes in
swimming, and is well-nigh drown
ed; he absents himself from school,
at the expense of his cuticle, and
that is fun.
He grows in size, but not in wis
dom for now he is in college. He
goes forth by night and steals the
signs of poor tradesmen; he
marches in processions of fools and
burns his books, he gets drunk
over nights and reaps headaches
in the morning, and that is lun.
He conceives a desire for the
company of young women; he fol
lows one girl about and wears her
hair; she carries his scalp in her
belt, and she rests under the
shadow of his ears, and that is fun.
In the end she throws him over,
and the sunshine is gone out of
his life, and for the space of three
months he is as a blighted syca
more and as a wild ass waiting in
the desert, and that is fun.
He takes to cynicism and to
neglect of his personal appearan
ces, and for that he himself did not
make the world, he saith it is but
a fortuitous concourse of atoms,
and a dented bad concourse at
that; he believes that he is old, and
he suffers in his heart, seeing that
bis mustache bears him not out,
and that is fun.
He returns to the world on his
own invitation; and is now a man
of the world. He knows the
wickedness of all things and the
doctrine of mixed drinks; his trous
ers are trousers of truth, and his
coats are coats of correctness, and
that is fun.
He drinks the champagne of the
Gaul, and on the morrow the
brandy of the Gaul and the soda
water that is naught but marble
dust and vanity. He goes to the
play; he goes also after the daugh
ters of the play house; he saith
"my dear" unto the girls; he gives
his head to Herodias and pays for
the charger, and that is fun.
And having done thus for
space, he is grown old, and his
blood is turned to gout in his
veins; he sits within the club win
dow in the sun, and he mows and
gibbers at women as they go by
him; he catches the young men by
the skirts of their coats and tells
them he hath been a devil in his
time, and that is fun.
And in the last day he is cased
in rosewood and decked witiiout
with silver, and is laid in the earth
in Greenwood. And when the
young men hear that he is dead,
they say to one anether: "Let us
pour a libation to him, being in
the nature of a snifter before din
ner, for he was fun." Puck.
Dyspepsia and indigestion are killing
more people than rum, ten times ocr.
When a man has dyspepsia his stomach
is always with him and he is always
conscious of it He can't sleep, ids food
doesn't taste right, lie's morbid. Your
stomach ought to be your best friend,
and it will be if after eating you will
take a little Simmons Liver Regulator
to assise uigesiion anu auay ail irrita
tion. "After eating a hearty supper, if L
take about a teaspoonful of Simmons
Liver Regulator, 1 never feel the effects
of the supper eaten."' Ovid G. Spakks,
ex-.uayor ot aiacon. ua.
A man from down on the Ump
qua river tells of a hunter who
became lost in the dense forests of
that region and who wandered
about day after dav with only star
vation and his faithful dog staring
him in the face, b inally driven
by hunger he cut off the dog's tail,
roasted and ate it. After finishing
his feast he observed with sorrow
that the poor dog had had nothing,
so he gave him the bone.
For scrofulous disorders, and
mercurial diseases, the best reme
dy is Ayer's Sarsaparilla.
"A man hires me to shoe his horse,
agreeing to give me one grain of
corn for the first nail, two for the
second, four for the third, and so
on, doubling it for every nail driv
en. If I use thirty-one nails how
much corn shall I receive?" You
will receive 2,147,483,647 grains
of corn
Not a particle of quinine nor
any mineral substance is contained
in Ayer's Ague Cure yet it is a
warranted specific for malaria.
The Eeporter's Vacation.
lUptrnnnlitan Editor Think vou
need a rest eh? "Well, I shouldn't
wonder; city life is a hard one,
taking it all the year around, and
I believe it is several years since
you had a vacation. "Which do

tains or pastoral scene?
Hard-worked Reporter (with en
thusiasm) Oh, the mountains al

Editor Well, the Mind and

The mortality among children
at Washington D. C, is reported
as appalling. Since April 7, over
800 children tinder three years of
age have died, and for the last two
weeks, deaths have averaged ten

on a Sunday paper that impure
milk causes the fearful death rate.
