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 q century, and have
obtained 4 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 bafaed the best Of
human skill. While they produce power
fnl effects, they are, at the same time, the
safest and best physie for children. By
their aperisut action they grippe much less
than the common purgatiyes, and never
give pain when the bowels are not inaaIned.
They reach the vital fountains oftlie blood,
and strengthen the system by freeing It
from the elements Of weakness.
Adapted to all ages and conditions in
all climates, containing neither caIomel
nor any deleterious drug, these Pills may
be taken with safety BY anybody. Their
sugar-coating preserves them ever fesh,
and makes them pleasant to take; while
being purely vegetable, no harm can arise
from their use in any quantity.

Wnste ana Want.

Either man must be content with
poverty all his life, or else deny himself
some luxuries and save to lay the base
of independence in the future. But it
man dehes the future, and spends all
he earns whether his earnings be one
or ten dollars day. let him look for
leanness and want some future time
for ii will surely come, no matter what
he thinks. To save is absolutely the
only way to get solid fortune; there
is no other certain mode. Those who
shut their eyes and ears to these certain
facts will be forever poor, and In their
obstinate rejection of truth mayhap
may die in rags and filth. Let them
so die and thank themselves. But mol
they take a sort of recompense in curs>
ing the future Great waste OF health.
They might as well curse the mountains
or the eternal hills. For we can tell
them fortune does not give away good
and substantial goods. She sells 1T to
the highest bidder, to the hardest and
wsest worker for the boon. Men never
make so fatal a mistake as when they
think themselves creatures OF fate It's
the sheerest folly in the world. Every
man may make or mar himself which>
ever he may choose. Fortune tor
those who by diligence, honesty, frugal
ity, place themselves in position to

in view. The best evidence Of frugality
is the five dollars, or more standing In
your name at the savings bank. The
best evidence of honesty consists in
diligence and frugality.

Another Letter from Longley.

Bill Longley has been writing another
letter to one OF his old comrades now
in the penitentiary, He boasts of his
not being afraid to die, and says " For
ii is by the help Of our blessed Lord
Jesus Christ that stand the storms Of
this life. | do not, neither Gun |, fear
mortal man. But | do both fear and
love God; and | must say from my
heart, that if it be Gods will that !
must end my days here on the scafiold,
| will meet it with pleasure. God knows
whether man is game or not aud !
don't care what the world thinks. The
Lord Jesus has been with me through
many a dangerous place, and he will be
with me to the end, Now, Thatcher,

say. Now you must not imagine | am

erything in the world toward getting
my sentence committed to lifetime i'm

because everybody is my enemy, and l
have no friends. So you see / have no
hope of that; and then, for my own
part, ! would as lief be hanged as 60 to
the pententiary for life. But on the
account of my poor old mother and
father, would be willing to 60 there,
instead of hanging. You know we
have all got to die sometime, so why
not at once, rather than hammer out q
few miserable years in prison and then
die2 for suppose lifetime prisoners are
not allowed any privilege whatever"
