AYERS CATHARTIC Pills are The best of
all purgatives for family use. They are the
product of long, laborious, and successful
chemical investigation, and their extensive
use, by Physicians in their practice, and by
all civilized nations, proves them the best
and most e~fiectual purgative Pill that medi-
cal science can devise. Being purely yege-
table no harm can arise from their use, In
intrinsic value and curative powers no other
Pills can be compared with them and every
person, knowing their virtues, will employ
them, when needed. They keep the system
in perfect order, and maintain in heal by
action the whole machinery OF life. Mild,
searching and effectual, they are specially
adapted to the needs of the digestive apPa-
ratus arrangements OF which they prevent
and cure, if timely taken. They are the
best and safest physic to employ for children
and weakened constitutions, where a mild,
but efiectual, cathartic is required.

WHILE the bounteous harvest that
has been garncred has greatly relieved
many people, it may rs well be con
cedcd that the commercial interests of
the country are yet in a very depressed
condition. Heavy failures are occur
ring in almost every quarter, and bust
ness has not received that stimulus
that was predicted owing to the war in
Europe and the good crops The num-
Der of failures and the aggregate liabil-
tiles are something amazing and sales
men in stores and shops who expected
TO be very busy at this season Of the
year have but few customers, and these
deal most sparingly. New York and
othef eastern cites, which expected to
do "A very large business during the fall,
are complaining about the light trade.
Russio-Turkish war, nor the good crops,
nor both will give to the business of
the country the activity of which the
prophets told us. Hard-times did not
come in day and will not depart in II
day. The people have slowly but
surely learned the ways of economy,
and plenty of money and plenty of
great speculations will not return at
once. Men have grown prudent and
careful. They are making haste slew
ly 1t is not improbable that there is
some unnecessary caution practicci
by business men; but it is not the great
est calamity after all. The best times
are those when business enterprises are
kept at point within the demands. of
the country. 1t is also very probable
that the present dulncss of trade is due
IN a great measure to the strict habits
of economy being enforced in nearly
every family and community, and in
that case it is ut all events healthy
condition for the country. 1t is true
that it is much easier to buy too much
than too little, but it is not impossible
to buy too little. The present dullness
of trade can most likely bc accounted
for in the strict economy of most peo-
pie and in the caution of business men
about business ventures. In this view
Of the present depression we may
safely conclue that substantial good
times will come very soon.

Lost His Grip.

A young man who is firm believer
in Spiritualism, went the other day to a
professional medium, to whom he put
in sealed envelope, the following ques-
ton: How is the wheat market likely
to 90 in November? In few mo-
ments the spirits returned him the tol-
lowing reply; Yes, watch over you
and am ever near you. Behind the
veil we track with lustrous hope the
e-path of our beloved on earth. LlIe
is mortal Immortality is immortal !;
two and two are four. The sacred
noon of beatitude basks blissfully on
the hilltops of the Summer Land
Shadowy kisses are breathed upon
your brow, and arms of moonbeam'
circle your head Be firm, be pure
and always come to this place Wheh
you want any revelations. Our prices
are the lowest in the market and we
strive to please. We shall gather at

IT appears from late adyices from
Cuba, that the Spanish government is
getting the better of the Cuban rebellion
and its suppression is likely to occur
very soon The Spanish government is
offering amnesty to the rebels and is be-
coming more liberal in its treatment of
the Cubans, which is doing as much as
The army to bring peace.

AFFAIRS are growing more serious ON
the Mexican frontier, and the governor
Of Texas has addressed long commu-
nication to the Washington government
reciting the outrages committed upon
Texans, and calling upon the govern
mcnt for protection. This trouble is
evidently not that of the Mexican gov
eminent, but on the contrary, it is that
of border ruilians, who murder and pill
agc indiscriminatcly on both sides Of
the Rio Grande. Such condition Of
things complicates matters badly, us the
only redress to be had, for these raids
upon Texas citizens, by the Washington
government, is through the Diaz govern
ment, which would prevent the out
RACES if it possessed the power. But the
federal government cannot remain in
different to the call of State for pro-
lection, because the invaders are out
laws and are probably encouraged in
their work by Adventures and specu-
lators who desire war between the two
nations on account of the opportunities
it affords for Jobs; it, however, places
the government in very difficult place
To determine the best course to pursue.
