"Russian Scandal" ="

A favorite play with DR.. Whatley
was penciling little tale on paper, and
then making his right-hand neighbor
read and repeat it, in a whisper, to the
next man, and so on until everybody
round the table had done the same
But the last man was always required
to write what he had heard, and the
matter was then compared with the
original, retained by his grace, In ma
ny cases the matter was barely recog-
nizable; and Dr. Whately would draw
an obvious moral; but the cream of
the fun lay in his efforts to discover
where the alterations took place, His
analytical powers Of detection proved,
as usual, accurate, and the interpolators
were playfully pilloried. The play is
called Russian Scandal"

PUBLIC BUSINESS: AN ADRoIt TRICK.
"A story is told of. a King of France
whe told his Minister that complaints of
justice deferred had become so clamor-
GUS that he was determined for the
future to look into the affairs of State
himself Next morning his Majesty,
looking from his bedroom window, saw
six huge wagons, from which bundles
Of papers, duly red-taped and ticketed,
were being discharged On asking the
Minister who accompanied the papers
what this meant, his reply was that
those wagons contained a small Install
ment-the rest were to follow--of the
papers which his Majesty, in following
out his praiseworthy determination to
attend to business himself, would re-
quire to examine. The King counter
manded the wagons, and the Minister,
as before, was left to manage the State
as seemed to him best.

AYERS
a 7 EFG'S
Cathartic Pills


A RE the most perfect purgative which we are
IN able to produce or which we think has ever
yet been made by anybody Their effects have
abundantly shown to the community how much
they excel the ordinary medicines now in use.
They are safe and pleasant to take, but powerful
to cure. Their penetrating properties stimulate
the vital activities of the body, remove the OBJ
structons of its organs, purify the blood and ex-
pei disease. They purge out the foul humors
which breed and grow distemper stimulate slug
gisor dsordered organs into their natural action,
and lmpart healthy tone with strength to the
whole system. Not only do they cure the eyerv-
day complaints of everybody, but also formidable
and dangerous diseases. While they produce pow
erful effects, they are at the same time in dimin-
ished doses the safest and best physc that can be
employed for children. Being sugar-cOated they
are pleasant to take and, being purely vegetable,
are free from any risk of harm. Cures have been
made which surpass belief were they not substan-
tiated by men Of such exalted position and char
acter, as to forbid the suspicion of unruth.
Many eminent cleTgymen and physicians have lent
their names to certify to the public the reliability
Of our remedies, while Others have sent us the
assurance OF their conviction that, our Prepara-
tiOns contribute immensely to the relief Of our
afflicted, suffering fellow-men.
The agent below named is pleased to furnish
gratis our American Almanac containing direc-
tions for the use and certificates Of their cures of
tho following complaints;
Costiveness, Bilious Complaints Rheumatism,
Dropsey, Heartburn, Headache arising from foul
stomach, Nausea. Indigestion, Morbid Inaction of
the Bowels and pain arising therefrOm FlatulencN
Loss Of Appetite, all Diseases which require an
evacuant medicine They also by purifying the
blood and stimulating the system, cure many COM
plants which twould not be supposed they could
reach, such as Deafness, Partial Blindness, Neu-
ralgia and Nervous hrtablty arrangements of
the Liver and Kidneys, Gout, and other kindred
complaints arising from low state OF the body,
or distinctions Of its functions.
Do not be put of by unprincipled dealers with
other preparations which they make more profit
on. Demand AYERS and take none others. The
sick want the best aid there is for them, and they
should hayet.
