AYERS PILLS.

A large proportion of the diseases which
cause human suffering result from derange'
ment Of the stomach, bowels, and liver.
AYER's CATuAnT1c PILLS act directly upon
these organs, and are especially designed TO
euro the diseases caused by their derange-
ment, including Constipation, 1ndigcs-
tion. Dyspepsia, Headache, Dyscntcry.
and q host of other ailments, for oil OF
which they are q safe, sure, prompt' anu
pleasant remedy. The extensive use OF tnesc
PILLS by eminent physicians in regular prae-
tice, shows unmistakably tho estimation III
which they arc held by the medical prolcs-
sion.
These PILLS are compounded of vegetable
substances only, and are absolutely free from
calomel or any other injurious Ingredient.
A Sufferer from Headache writes:
"AYER's PILLS are invaluable to Me, and
are INV constant companion. l have been
q severe sufferer from Headache, and your
PILLS are the only thing l could look TO
for relief. Ono dose will quickly moro my
bowels and free my head from pain. ihcy

"I havo used AYERS PILLS IN number,
less instances as recommended by you, ana

tho desired result. We constantly keep them
on hand at our home, and prize them MS

The REV. FRANCIS B. HARLowE, writing
from Atlanta, Ca, says: For some years
past have been subject to constipation,
from which, in spite of the use OF medi-
cines Of various kinds, l suffered increasing
Inconvenience, until some months ago
began taking AYERS PILLS. They have
entirely corrected tho costive habit, anu
have vastly improved my general health.
AYERS CATnAnTIc PILLS correct irregu-
larities of tho bowels, stimulate the appe-
tito and digestion, and by their prompt and
thorough action give tone and vigor to tho
whole physical economy.

The Blessing Of Sugar.
Cornhill kaga@ns.

Has aRy housewife ever realized The
alarming condition of cookery In the
benlghted generations before the in
vantion of sugar2 It is really almost
too appalling TO think about. So many
things that we nov lsok upon as all
but necessaries-cakes, pudaings,
made dishes, eonfee ionery, preserves,
swees biscuits, jellies, cooked fruits,
tarts and SO forth-were then practic-
ally quite impossible. Fancy attempt,
ing nowadays to live single day
without sugar; no tea, no coffee, no
jam, no pudding, no cake, no sweets,
no hot toddy before one goes to bed !;
the bare idea of it is too terrible, And
yet that was really the abject condi-
ton of all the civilized werld up to
the middle of the middle ages.
Horace's punch was suearless and
lcmonless; the gentle Virgil never
tasted the eongenial cup OF afternoon
tea; ana Socrates went from his cradle
to his grave without ever knowing the
flavor of peppermint bulls eyes. How
the children managed to spend their
Saturday as, or their weekly 0boIus,
is profound mystery. To be sure,
people had honey; but honey Is rare,
dear and scanty it can never have
filled one qGarter the place that sugar
fills IN our modern affections. Try
for a moment to realize drinking
honey with ones whisky-and water,
Or delsg tAe years preserving with a
pct sf bests Narbonne, and you get at
once common nleasure of the differ
ence between the two as practical
sweeteaers. Nowadays, we get sugar
from cane and best-reot in abundance,
while sugar NAPLES and palRa trees of
various sorts afford q considerable
supply 10 remoter countries. But the
childhood of the little Greeks and Re-
mans must have been absolutely US
lighted by a single ray Of joy from
chocolate creams or Everton taffee.

London Bridge.

The London bridge, which the dyna-
niters tried to blow up the other day,
was begun in 1924 and was finished 10
1897, from designs of John Rennie,
architect of South wark and Waterloo
bridges The cost is estimated at be-
tween 21, 10000 and 92, 100000. It
is built of granite in ave arches, the
center arch being 152 feet, the two
130 feet each in span. The bridge is
900 feet long, and 81 feet wide. The
lamp pests are made from cannon
taken In the Peninsular war. Over
one hundred thousand persons pass
over 1t every day. Police constables
are stationed 10 the middle of the
roadway to prev ent blocks. l. is the
handsomest bridge over the Thames.

someness CT various objects. We can
mix sugar with anything we like,
whether it had sugar in it to begin
Wlta Or otherwise, and by sweetening
and havorlng we can give false pala-
taolenesS to even the worst and most
lndlgestible rubbish, such as plaster
OF paris, largely sold under the name
Of sugared almons to the ingenious
youth OF two hemispheres. But in
untouched nature the test rarely or
never fails. As long as fruits are
unrIpe or unfit fer human food they
are green and sour: as soon as they
ripen they become soft and sweet,
and usually acquire some bright coler
as d sort of advertisement of their
edlblllty. In the main, Bar the
accidents Of civilization, whatever is
sweet is good to at,-nay more, is
meant to be eaten, it is only
our own perverse folly that makes US
sometimes think all nice things bad
for us and all wholesome things nasty.
Ia state of nature the exact op-
posite Is really the case. One may
observe, too, that children, who are
literally young sayages in more senses
than one, stand nearer to the primi-
tive feeling in this respect than grswn
up people. They unaffectedly like
sweets; adults whe have grown more
accustomed to the artificial meat diet
don't, as rule, care much for pud-
dlBgs, cakes, and made dishes.

desiring to bring down upon nay de-
voted head the imprecaution pro
neunced against the rash person who
would rob poor man of his beer. It
is quite possible to believe that vege-
tarianism was the starting point of
the race, without wishing to consider
it also as the goal; just as it is quite
possible to regard clothes as purely
artificial products of civilization.

A Young Lady's Essay cR the DHde's
Cfgaretis.

The sportive dude, with his little
cerebrum gracefully repcsing above
| his arched and artistically cerked eye
brows, carries in one hand, incased in
surerlative kid, dainty cane, while
in the other he grasps the potential
subject Of this essay. He places the
tiny roll Of the Indian weed, carefully
wrapped about with rice paper satu-
rated with arsenic. between his pearlY
teeth after lighting jt with a bit Of
| burning birthstone. Down the street
| he carelessly saunters, not Il care dis
turbing his serene counteuance, or
while, ever and anon, he adjusts. with
| that neatly dressed hand, an eyeglass
to the left eye, and through it ogles
the passing girl Of the period. Is he
not contented and self satisfied? Ap-
pearances would indicate that he is, if
they are not treacheroushly deceptive.
That darling little brain is in tempo
rary ecstacy, nerved to activity for
brief period by the stimulating effects
of that bit of-of-tebacco
Perhaps it will be necessary before
proceeding TO inforn tbs uninitiatea
among my hearers SIS to the meaning
Of this ssellifuous word Of Indian
origin. Tobacco is the leaf Of a plant
first grown In the West ladies and
ia America, and is now universally
used for smoking. chewing, and in the
form Of snuff. Before the discovery
of the new world, this poisonous
weed, first introduced To the Caucasian
race by Sir Walter Raleigh, was not
known among Europeans. To the
young men of this age it may seem
hard to realize how the youth of these
many centuries passed their sdd
moments: They undoubtedly lived
as long and enjoyed life fully as much
as the yeang mon Of this age. A
noted physician has said that tobacco
is working greater sphysical devasta-
ton to this generation than can be
possibly imagined, and may be called
the twin brother of alcohol. This
unnatural habit, that is SO enervating
to the vital and moral energies of the
constitution, Is one among the
causes of nervous diseases,
as it diminishes the natural
power of the BRAIN and nerves, and ia
productive of the most serious conse-
suence to those who indulge In 1t
even slightly. Tobacco is one OF theE
most deadly narcotics found in all the
list of po sons. a few drops of its
condensed properties will destroy life.
Even a drop of it's nicotine oil will
kill the steutest dog. An ounce of
prevention is worth more tnan a
pound of cure.
Having said so much IN relation to
the history and nature of the tobacco
slant, we will return to the dude with
his cigarette made therefrom. Before
finishing his walk, the fire has gradu-
ally crept up and destroyed SO much
OF the petit cigar that he is compelled
TO throw it at some small dog. Soon,
however, he feels as if something was
necessary TO continue his self-eea-
placency, and, bofere he is aware of
1t, another little cigar aderns his lips.
Do you think that the constant burn-
ing of tobacco beneath this dudes
little, tortured brain may eventually
cremate II?

Sullivan and Ryan.

NEW YORK, Jan. 19.-In the Madi.
son Square Garden, tonight, John L
Sullivan AID Paddy Ryan, old time
antagonists, agaiA met. They went
to work in good style, but were
stopped by Police Captain Williams
before they had had their hands up a
miaute. No body was arrested and
no decision was given. At e'cleck
the crowd inside had reached 5000,
and visitors were still demanding ad-
mittance. A large number of sports
were present from Troy, Chicago,
Boston and other points.
Among the interested spectators
was Roscoe Conkling. After what
seemed an interminable delay ap
plause ran through the hall and Jno.
L. Sullivan jumped over the ropes
The champion looked to be In good
condition, and gazed complacently
over the great throng. When Ryan
made his appearance he was greeted
with cheers and waving of hats. His
massive proportions showed up to
good advantage and he was evidently
the favorite with great many. Pat
would receive 65 per cent. of the re-
ceipts and the loser So.
First round Sullivan led off with
his left for Ryan's bread basket, bat
the latter neatly lodged the blow
Ryan made feint and tapped Sulli-
van heavily on the right jaw. The
cha n Dion grew red3er and angrier,
and Ryan noting this fought close to
his opponent, evidently with the in
tention to prevent Sullivan getting in
the terrific blows for which he is ceIe-
brated. Both men fought closely at
short range, showering blows thick
and fast upon each other, and the en-
thusiasm increasing with the severity
of the blows. The pugilists had not
seen at work over a minute when In
spector Thorne jumped over the ropes,
followed by Capt Williams, and the
two. with uplifted clubs, separated
the combatants. They were forced to
their corners reluctantly and Capt
Williams stripped off the gloves.
''This is no fight" shouted Sheedy,

displeasure. Il would have won the
match" said Ryan, If the authorities
had not interfered." This appeared
to be the general opinion among
these assembled, and when the Trojan
started to leave the platform he was
tustily cheered.
The receipts were about $11, 900 and
are Ia Sheedy's hands, and he will be
likely TO retain them inasmuch as the
contest came to such a termination.
He intimated that he had an under
standing with the principals that in
the event of trouble he would take
the proceeds, giving each what he
deemed right.
Joe Coburn said ne had man be
would pit agaiast the winner, and
said Capt. James @. Daily was the new
aspirant for the champion honors,
The crowd left 10 fairly good humor
although many denounced the police
for interfering.
