Rochester On. Y. Democrat: Hello,
Butler!' SAID Cox, good humoredly,
addressing the gentle Ben. Haven't
seen you around for two years back.
Where We you been?''
"And this is little Snowdrop, is it?'
said the general with afectionate inter
est. ''Dear little Snowdrop, the Belle
of Ohio! Take care of your health,
dear. Wrap your shawl about you more
closely. The breezes are more chilly
than usual this morning
1.-The widow is more than usually
kind" said Cox, smiling viciously.
''How did she leave things on her Col
orado farm?'
"Doing very nicely" returned the
General, with graceful oratorical
movement of his hand. VERY nicely,
indeed. Speaking of the sheep more
especially, though l regret to say that
one of the lambs has disappeared. Do

glasses and looked with pleased surprise
at the little man-.Hhy, really, how dc
you do?'
II am glad to near that it was only a
lamb" returned Cox, wincing little
as if from an imaginary brick. II don't

General-"I didn't know but it might
be one Of the larger and more vicious

ooh, no." returned the General.
1t is pretty early in the session, dear.
Ha-has somebody been kicking you
already"
He put bit Of thistle down to his
lips, blew the same away, hummed a
tune and passed carelessly on.
The telegraph has reported that Coz

Ayers Cathartic Pills

tic medicine that can be employed cleans
ing the stomach and bowels. and even the
blood. In small doses Of one pill day,
they stimulate the digestive organs and
promote vigorous health.
AYERS PILLS have been known for
more than quarter of century, and have
obtained worldwide reputation for their
virtues. They correct diseased action in
the several assimilative organs of the
body, and are so composed that obstruc-
tons within their range can rarely with
stand or evade them. Not only do they
cure the everyday complaints of every
body, but also formidable and dangerous
diseases that have baffled the best of
human skill. While they produce power
ful effects, they are, at the sane time, the
safest and best physic for children. BY
their aperient action they gripe much less
than the common purgatives, and never
give pain when the bowels are not inflamed.
They reach the vital fountains of the blood,
and strengthen the system by freeing it
from the clements of weakness.
Adapted to all ages and conditions in
all climates, containing neither calomel
nor any deleterious drug, these Pills NAV
be taken with safety by anybody. Their
sugar-coating preserves them ever fresh,
and makes them pleasant to take; while
being purely vegetable, no harm can arise
from their use In any quantity.
