Long-Standing
Blood Diseases are cured by
the persevering use of Ayer's
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
vere pain in my right side, and had
other troubles caused by a torpid liver
and dyspepsia. After Riving 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
on my arm. The usual remedies had no
effect and I was confined to my bed for
fight weeks. A friend induced me to try
Ayer's Sarsaparilla. Less than three
bottles healed the sore. In all my expe
ri.Mico with medicine, I never saw- more
Wonderful Results.
Another marked effect of the use of this
medicine was the strengthening of ray
sight." Mrs. Carrie Adams, Holly
Springs, Texas.
" I had a dry scaly humor for years,
and suffered terribly ; and. as my broth
er and sister were similarly afflicted, I
presume the malady is hereditary. Last
winter. Dr. Tyron, (of Fernandina,
Fla.,) recommended me to take Ayer's
Sarsaparilla, and continue it for a year.
For live months I took it daily. I have
not hail a blemish upon mv body for the
last three months." T. E. Wiley, 145
Chambers st., New York City.
" 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.
noli and Iivor increased my troubles. 1
began taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla, and,
after faithfully continuing the use oj
this medicine for some months, the pain
disappeared and I was completely
cured." Mrs. Augusta A. Furbush,
Haverhill, Mass.

MOELY riNNEY'S EOMANOE.
How One of Mama's 013 Time Lassies
WoiTHer Husland.
Perhaps the most romantic of all
the tales of Ancient Brunswick Town
is that of Molly Finneyand how she
got a hnsband. It has a wild begin
ning, but n good, old-fashioned end
ing. In 1756 the eastern Indians were
in a most warlike and ferocious mood.
They massacred many of Brunswick's
settlers, and ono night made a raid
on the bouse ofThomas Means at
"Flying Point" They battered in
the door and dragged out Means and
his family. The settler fought them
manfully, but his fate was sealed.
Two Indians held his arms while a
third shot the brave man through the
body with his own rifle. Meantime
Mrs. Means ran back into the house
with her infant and Vainly tried to
barricade the door. With fierce yells
they burst into the house again, and
with one ball killed the infant and
pierced the mother's breast. Molly
Finney was Mrs. Means' sister, a
blooming young damsel, high colored
and plump. They seized her in her
night clothes and carried her off to
Canada, giving her a blanket to help
cover her. At Quebec they sold her
to a farmer for SG in money and a
bottlff of strong water. For a long
time Molly worked in this farmer's
fields, but he suddenly became jeal
ous of a young French Canadian who
was seen to pay her some marked at
tentionB; and locked her in her cham
ber in his house. About this time
there came to anchorage before Quo
bee a certain bold Captain McLellan,
of Falmouth, Me., in his fast brigan
tine. He learned Molly's story and
secretly arranged with her a plan for
bee escape. One night he threw a
rope to her window, and she lowered
herself to tlio.gronncl. Before morn
ing.she and her rescuer were sailing
rapidly down the St. Lawrence before
a stiff breeze, bound for Falmouth.
Youcanguesrthe sequel how they
fell in love and ero married If
ever a girl deserved a good husband
it was Molly Finney, and the Lewis
ton Journal hopes she was as beauti
ful and true a woman as it did be
hoove the valliant captain to tnke to
wife.

PARTIAL ATONEMENT.
'A Husband's Honor Vindicated by a
Dead woman's Letters.
New Obleans, June 14. Mrs.
Henry Favrot. not yet twenty years
ot age, was found dead in bed this
morning. Letters that she left show
that sho deliberately resolved to mil
herself, as a partial atonement for
having falsely blackened the reputa
tion of her husband and with the
hoDQ ot vindicating bis good name.
Mrs. Favrot was formerly Miss Lillie
Dubreca. She was a favorite at
home and in the social circles she
freauented. No suspicion against
her reputation had ever been breathed
against her until u few months ago
when it was discovered that she was
in a delicate condition. Pressed by
her parents, Miss Dubroca said that
Henry Favrot. her cousin, a gentle
man who was kuown to have been
very assiduous in bis attentions
toward her, and sue uaa been secretly
married.
Favrot. who had but recently been
admitted to tho bar, expressed the
utmost indignation and surprise
when confronted with the young
lady. He denied emphatically hav
ing been anything except a friend.
She persisted, however, nnd to save
the honor of her family he consented
to marry her, bnt be never lived with
her.
The story is told in two letters that
were found on a table near the bed.
One was open. It was written with a
reu pencil, ;aud was addressed "lo
the public." It was in Mrs. Favrot's
handwriting, and read as follews:
"The public is anxious to hear mj
last words. Perhaps there nre not
many things to say, except to relieve
anxiety, 1 suppose. I mako this state
ment, the frnth of which is unques
tionable, but there 'are many who do
not know it was a fact. I nssert that
the man bearing the uamo of my
husband is not guilty of that of which
he is accused. His character in this
case has been blackened for ray own
selfish motives, and they mint be
known while it is yet in my power to
make them. I have nothing more to
leave behind me-but this proof of my
husband's innocence."
The other letter was inclosed in au
envelope addressed to her father, A.
V. Dnbroca, Port' Allen, West Baton
Rocne. and was worded m follews:
"H. F. is not tbe-fatber of 'niy child.
