UNCHANGED.
The MOnotony Of the Strike Still COntin-
ues-latest From St. Louis and
New York.

ST. LOUIS, August To-day the no.
tees that have adorned the Offices OF the
Western Union stating that all mesrasos
are received subject TO delay were taken
down. Col. Baker said that the force had
become so satisfactory that these notices
could be dispensed with at al the princi-
pal Offices, and that II there was any occa-
sion for delay to certain points which are
yet weak that senders Of such messages
would be notified. With respect 10 the i'm
preston that the business OF the Western
Union had greatly decreased since the
strike, Col, Baker declared that It was
false. The business fell 10 ZOO messages
on the day Of the strike at the local main
office, but since that time the average OF
II 900 messages daily has been maintained,
and he estimated that the total diminution
would not be 10 per cent. Of the usual
amount. As to complaints of the general
public he said no more had been re-
seived, or at least veg few more, than be-
fore the strike,

AYERS CATIIARTIC Pulls are the best
of all purgatives for family use. They
are the product of long, faborous, and
successful chemical investigation, and
their extensive use, by Physicians in
their practice, and by all civilized na-
tions, proves them the best and most
effectual purgativc Pill that medical
science can devise. Being purely veg
etable no harm can arise from their
use, and being sugar-coated they are
pleasant to take. 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 healthy action the whole
machinery Of life. Mild, searching and
effectual, they are especially adapted
to the needs of the digestive apparatus,
arrangements of which they prevent
and cure, if timely taken. They are
the best and safest physic to employ
for children and weakened constitu-
tons, where a mild but effectual
cathartic is required.

The announcement that the bill to
check the importation of vile teas will
be passed through Congress is crafty
ing. 1t is stated that many members
of the House have been shown, by ac-
tual comparison, the difference be-
tween cheap wholesome teas and those
that are adulterated or exhausted
Many of the latter are sold by means
of gift enterprises or other devices,
and the doctored or refuse goods are
50 prepared as to deceive ordinary
customers. England having passed a
law against admitting such teas into
her markets, all the more os them are
now sent to the United States

Now is THE T1ME.-Our merchants
are now making preparations to visit
the northern cities to purchase their
Spring stock of new goods, and we
would remind these gentlemen that
goods might as well remain on the
counters of the New York, Philadel-
phla and Baltimore dealer, unless the
people know that you have them. -
They are not going where they are not
sure they are wanted. What is worth
getting is worth asking for; and if you
want custom say SO through the local
press, the only way to reach the con-
sumner. Everybody who has anything
to sell, whether it be real estate or
personal property = farms or farm
stock, town houses or lots; merchan.
disc or manufactures of every descrip-
ton should make it known through
the newspapers. There can be no
more profitable outlay in business Of
any kind than liberal and judicious
advertising. What manure is to the
soil; what steam is to machinery
what blood is to life-advertising is to
the business man in every department
of trade, manufacture and commerce
The experience of the most successful
business men has long demonstrated
this fact.
