How n Boy was Hired Out, ana

BY GEORGE CARY EGGLEsToN.

BY GEORGE CARY EGGLESTON.
When Michael Angelo was twelve
years of age, although he had had no
instruction in art, he did a piece of
work which greatly pleased the paint
er Dominica GhirlandajO. This artist
at once declared that there was lad
of genius, who must quit his studies,
and become painter.
This was what the little Michael
most wished to do, but he had no hope
that his father would listen for mo-
ment to the suggestion. His father,
LudovicO BuOnarOti, was a distin-
guished man in the state, and held art
and artists in contempt. He had
planned "A great political career for his
boy, as the boy knew very we'll.
Ghirlandajo was enthusiastic, how
ever, and in company with the lad he
at once visited LudovicO, and asked
him to place Michael in his studio.
LudOvico was very angry, saying
that he wished his son to become a
prominent man in society and politics,
not a dauber and a mason ; but when
he found that young Michael was de
termined to be an artist or nothing,
he gave way, though most ungraeiOus-
". He would not say that he consent
ed to place his son with GhirlandajO (;
he would not admit that the study OF

Extracting an Arrowhead.

Drs. J. ID. Griffith and A. NJ. Lewis
performed a surgical operation upon
George T. Reynolds, by which a steel
arrowhead was removed from his back
at a point two inches to the left of the
spinal column and two inches below
the surface. Mr.. Reynolds is a prOmi-
nent stock man of Fort Griffin, Texas.
Sixteen years ago, in a skirmish with
the Indians, he was wounded, an arrow
entering his abdomen and passing
through the abdominal cavity. He
pulled the shaft out, and, contrary to
all precedent, recovered from the inju
~ in ten days. He experienced no
trouble from the arrowhead until a
year ago. The operation was perform
ed recently without chlorOform, and
the patient is in fair way to be all
right again in a few days. Kansas

No preparation has ever performed such
marvellous cures, or maintained so
wide reputation, as AYERS CHERRY
PICTORIAL, which is recognized as the
worlds remedy for all diseases of the
throat and lungs. Its long-continued
series of wonderful cures in all eli
mates has made it universally known
as a safe and reliable agent to employ.
Against ordinary colds, which are the
forerunners of more serious disorders,
it acts speedily and surely, always re-
lieving suffering, and often saving life.
The protection it affords, by its timely
use in throat and chest disorders,
makes it an invaluable remedy to be
kept always on hand in every home.
No person can afford to be without it,
and those who have once used it never
will. From their knowledge of its
composition and operation, physicians
use the CHERRY PICTORIAL extensively
in their practice, and clcr%ymen recon-
mend it. 1t is absolutely certain in
its healing effects, and will always
cure where cures are possible.
