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 a 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
full effects, they are, at the same time, the
safest and best physic for children. By
their aperient action they grippe 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 elements of weakness.
Adapted to all ages and conditions in
all climates. containing neither calomel
nor any deleterious drug, these Pills may
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.

INDIAN ANTIQUITIES

The Rev. Mr.. Gass has added to his
Indian antiquities discovered on the
Cook farm, Iowa, an object almost as
curious as the pictured slab about
whose authenticity there has been SO
much discussion. The new specimen
was found on the surface, while plow
ing. and there are no means of ascer-
tanning how deeply it may have been
buried. Obviously, if it's authenticity
is questioned, there is much less to be
said in favor Of the circumstance of
it's discovery than in the case of the
tablets which were found in mounds.
The figure is of about the size snd
form of mouse, with eyes Of crystal
that have been fastened with some
kind of cement; the snout has the
shape of the bill Of an ornithorhyn-
chus something like duck S billy. 1t
is evident that the whole thing is to
a great extent a curious natural for
nation; sandstone cOncretion in
which the sand is held together by
ferric oxide, being naturally mount
ed on slab of flint. In front there
has been no attempt at carving, but
the lower parts of the body have been
rudely cut to represent tail and limbs.
the whole specimen has the appear
ance of being worn on the more ex-
posed portions, as if it had undergone
much handling.

Sc1ENcE+
FOR THE LICK OBSERVA-
TORY,f

Mr.. Richard S. Floyd, one Of the
trustees Of the Lick estate, has been
for year past in Europe, Investigate
ing the comparative merits of reflect
ors and refracting lenses, for the great
telescope. For various reasons, which
he gives in detail, he decides against
a large reflector, one point being that
even if the extreme nicely of adjust
ment which the reflector requires
could be attained in the new observa-
tory, it would be liable to arrangement
in the high winds Of a mountainous
position. If a refractor is decided
upon, bids should be asked, Mr.. Floyd
says, from Cook & Brothers, of New
York; from Alyan Clark & Sons, and
from Howard Grubb. He reports that
the reputation Of Clark's refractors
and Grubb's, from all he can learn
abroad, is about equal. The story Of
Mr.. Lick's millions had preceded Mr..
Floyd, and he has found it difficult to
bring down the estimates of European
opticians to the basis Of ordinary bus
mess profit.
