Is compound Of the virtues Of sarsaparil-
Ia, snll1ngia, mandrake, yellow dock, with
the iOdide OF potash and iron, all powerful
matchmaking, blood-cleansing, and life-sus-
tanning elements. It is the purest, safest,
and most effectual alternative medicine
known or available to the public. The sci
ences OF medicine aud chemistry have never
produced so valuable remedy, nor one so
potent to cure all diseases resulting from
impure blood. It cures Scrofuia and
Rose, or st. Anthony's Fire, Pimples
and Face.grubs, Pustules, Blotches,
Boils, Tumors, letter, Humors,
Salt Rheum, Scald-head, Ring-worm,
Ulcers, Sores, Rheumatism, Mercuriai
disease, Neuralgia, Female Weak
nesses and irregularities, Jaundice,
Ahections OF the Liver, Dyspepsia,
Emaciation, and General DEBILITY.
By its searching and cleansing qualities
it purges out the foul corruptions which
contaminate the blood and cause derange-
ment and decay. 1t stimulates and enlivens
the vital functions, promotes energy and
strength, restores and preserves health, and
infuses new life and vigor throughout the
whole system. No sufferer from any dis
ease which arises from impurity OF the
blood need despair who will give AYERS
SARsAPARILLA fair trial.
1t is folly to experiment with the numer
GUS iow.priced mixtures, OF cheap materials,
and without medicinal virtues, offered as
lood-purifiers, while disease becomes more
firmly seated. AYERS SARsAPARILLA is a
medicine OF such concentrated curative
power, that it is by far the best, cheapest
and most reliable blood-puri6er known.
Physicians know its composition, and pre-
scribe it. It has been widely used for forty
years, and has won the unqualified conf
dence of millions whom it has benefited.

viii Partridge eat Partrldge2

During the past winter a number of
partridges belonging to the Lancaster
Game Association have died, although
provided with plenty of feed, fresh
water and gravel. The dead birds were
removed from the room in which they
died as soon as they were discovered;
but occasionally they may have lain
dead under cover few days before being
discovered. Three or four of them were
noticed to have the feathers partly pick.
ed off and the flesh eaten away from the
neck and back. 1t was thought the
mischief might have been done by mice
traits could not possibly enter the room,
and a trap was set to catch them. Yes
terday, however, while the birds were
being fed, dead one was discovered
behind piece of canvass that had been
arranged as screen and retreat for the
birds. The feathers and flesh were
picked from its back, and some feathers
were sticking on the beaks of the living
birds. The man who fed the birds is
fully convinced that the living birds
were feeding on the dead one, although
there was abundance of feed-screen-
ings, cracked corn, a head of cabbage
and basin of water-within their reach.
Some of our old sportsmen say they
never heard of such thing. If any of
our readers have heard of similar case
we would be pleased to hear from them.

A Romantic Story.

A romance In real life Is the talk of
the gossips in Allegheny county. Seven
years ago young man named George
Arthur Brebb landed in New York from
Liverpool. He was the son of the super
intendent of one OF London's public
libraries, who was also large stock
holder in the Queens Theater, London.
At home young Brebb had lived a fast
life, which brought about quarrel be-
tween him and his father and he deter
mined to emigrate. In New York,
Brebb fell in with fast friends and soon
his small sum of money was exhausted.
Having no trade, Brebb started out with
gang of tramps and for five years
roamed from State to State dirty and
ragged. In April, 1879 he was with
dirty companions hanging around Cadiz,
Harrison County, Ohio. One Sunday
John III. Fair, q small farmer and coal
operator, with his family was out walk
ing, and as the roads were muddy they
took the railroad track. After walking
some distance they came upon young
Brebb and his gang huddled around
fire. Mr.. Fair got into conversation
with the men and Mrs. Fair noticed by
Brebb's speech that he was native of
her own country. Mr.. and Mrs. Fair
asked Brebb to cut loose from his COM
panions and stay with them. This
Brebb agreed to do, and next day he was
put to work. Shortly after Brebb be-
came one of the Fair household a wild
owed sister of Mrs. Fair came over from
England to make her home with the
Fairs. She was told the story of Brebb
and Brebb and Mrs. Tweedie soon grew
to be very warm frienGs. Friendship in
time ripened into love, and ere many
months passed by Mrs. Tweedie consent
ed to marry Brebb, although she knew
nothing as to who he really was and
from his own account. He was re-
deemed tramp and that was ALL The
ceremony was performed in December
of that year, after which matters went
on as usual for several months. Finally
Brebb concluded he would write home
and let his people know of his where
abouts and situation. After lapse of o
short time he received an answer, stat
ing that his father had died two years
ago, and that in his will he had left his
wayward son 10000. Brebb then dis
closed his identity to his wife and rela-
tives and soon after left with his wife
for London, where from letter received
this week, they arrived in due time and
had Immediately received the inherit
ance of about $4,000.

Foreign Affairs.

NICE, March pa fire in the italian
Opera House broke out at the commence
ment of the opera this evening. -Four
teen persons who were sufocated have
been taken out and their bodies placed
in the church opposite the theater. 1t
is feared that hundred men and wo-
men perished in the flames.
MADRID, March 22.-A bomb with
lighted fuse attached was placed outside
the Royal Theater last night, but it was
discovered by the police before it could
explode.
The eleven hundred persons reported
in the Berlin dispatch as having left for
Bremen and Hamburg on their way to
America left that city on Monday from
two railway stations only. The emigra.
ton is so large that the steamship COM
panies are obliged to charter extra
steamers.
