Blood Diseases are cured by
the persevering use of Ayer'e
Sarsaparilla.
This medicine is an Alterative, and
causes a radical change in the system.
The process, in some cases, may not be
quite so rapid as in others ; but, with
persistence, the result is certain,
Read these testimonials :
" For two years I suffered from a se
ere pain in my right side, and had
other troubles caused by a. torpid liver
and dyspepsia. After giving several
medicines a fair trial without a cure, I
began to take Ayer's" Sarsaparilla. I
was greatly benefited by the first bottle,
and after taking five bottles I was com
pletely cured." John "W. Benson, 70
Lawrence St., Lowell, Mass.
Last May a large carbuncle broke out
in my arm. j,ne usual remedies had no
effect and I was confined to my bed for
iglit weeks. A friend induced me to try

Wonderful Results.
Vnotlier marked effect of the use of this
medicine was the strengthening of my

" I had a dry scaly humor for years,
and suffered terribly; and. as my broth
er and sister were similarly afflicted. I
presume tho malady is hereditary. Last
winter, ut. xyron, (ot f ernandma,
Fla.,) recommended me to t3ke Ayer's
Sarsaparilla, and continue it for a year.
For five months I took it daily. I have
not had a blemish nnon mv hndv for tlm

" Last fall and winter I was troubled
with a dull, heavy pain in my side. I
did not notice it much at first, but it
gradually grew worse until it became
almost unbearable. During the latter
part of this time, disorders of the stom.
ach and livor increased my troubles. I
began taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla, and,
after faithfully continuing the use ot
this medicine for some months, the paiq
disappeared and I was completely
cured." Mrs. Augusta A. Furbu3h,

THE MOST GUTED OP MORTALS
Is the Man Who Knows How to Get
Along With Everybody.
The dazzling genius may startle
and amaze mankind by his
divinely gifted endowments, but
the man who knows how to get
along with people is apt to reach
the heights, while the dazzling
genius, like an eagle with a broken
wing, is floundering in the valley
below.
Put the dazzling genius and the
man who knows how to get along
with people side by side on the
race track of life, and then let
them start abreast. The dazzling
genius will excite the curiosity of
the crowd by the brilliancy of his
gyrations and his involved and in
tricate evolutions. He will leap
like an unbroken colt, and prance
like a two-year old filly, but the
man who knows how to get along
with people will come swinging
down the home-stretch, pass the
judge's stand, with his brilliant
but erratic competitor far in the
rear.
The faculty of getting along
with people is, perhapse, the most
fortunate gift with which nature
can endow a man. The whole
secret consists, in liking people
and taking an interest in them.
So many men are armed with dis
likes, like porcupin quills, which
they shoot in all directions, letting
them strike where they will. They
are like those pivotal gnns which
we see in the navy, which turn on
a swivel and shoot toward every
point of the compass. They keep
their batteries loaded, and every
man who approaches them they re
gard as an invader and an enemy.
They scrutinize their acquaint
ances as a proof-reader examines
his proof, to see what errors ho
can discover. Their lives are a
perpetual quest for the vices of
their neighbors. They never get
along with people, for people ob
ject to having a perpetual inven
tory taken of their faults and
weaknesses.
Opticians tell us there is one
little spot in the eye that is en
tirely blind. The mental eye of
the man who knows how to get
along with people has a large spot
that is bund to all his neighbors
vices, while his vision is unusually
keen in regard to their good qua!
ities. Everybody likes him be
cause he hkesjeverybody. No won
der he climbs high in the world,
for everybody stands ready to
give him a "boost." Yankee

Oregon and "Washington ter
ritory were supposed to be the
most productive lands on the con

give up the belt in favor of Iowa.
Unless the papers of that state
tell us untruths we are badly
beaten; for reports say that there
is a family in that state consisting
of. father, mother, and twenty-two
girls and one boy living and one
dead, making an even two dozen
births in the family, while the old

Tho PeMn "Gazette."
One of the oldest things in this
old capitol of China is its news
paper, lhe rekin Gazette lias
been published almost daily for
S00 years. It is the oldest news
paper in the world. It was read
by Chinese centuries before Amer
ica was discovered. Its first cop-
ies, were struck off hundreds of
years before Gutenberg gave
printing to luirope, and it was in
existence 500 j'ears before tho
Frankfort Gazette, the first daily
newspaper of our civilization,
began its publication in 1615. Age
has, however, produced no more
change upon it than upon the Chi
nese people, and its contents are
much the same to-day as they
were when it was founded in the
darkness of the middle ages. Its
method of printing is the same,
and it is still sot up from movable
types of wood and struck off in
dark, low rooms by .the Ions; finger
nailed hands of these almond-eyed
Celestials, bull, it is the most
aristocratic paper in the world,
and the Chinese emperors of the
past have been its editors. It is
the organ of the Chinese Govern
ment and it is simply a record of
official acts and reports. It is a
crime to add or subtract from it in
its publication. The Chinese
government allows no comments
upon its acts, and this is the only
organ by which these millions of
people, making up more than one
fourth of the whole world, can
know what their ruler is doing.
People who are fond of coinci
dences will find it interesting to
note that William Henry Harrison
Miller, born in the year the first

eight years later, the attorney-general

rison.
