On the corner of two streets, opposite
public pump, stood small, two-story
structure, built of stone, of course, and
plastered over with mortar of yellow

tock-in-trade consisted of bakers bread,
milk, and other stomachic necessities to

III UulS case, as III many OOnSrS,
the change worked wonders:-
Three years ago ! suffered greatly from
Liver Complaint, General Debility, Loss
of Appetite, and Headache; my stomach
was disordered, and, although / ate
sparingly, of carefully selected food, l was
in constant distress from indigestion. L
was troubled with sleeplessness, and be-
came so emaciated and feeble that l was
unable to leave my room. After remain
ing in this reduced condition over
month, and receiving no benefit from the
medicines prescribed for me, obtained
my doctors consent to a trial of Ayers
Sarsaparilla. Before l had finished the
first bottle of this medicine began to inn
prove. BY its continued use the troubles
with my liver and stomach gradually dis
appeared, and my appetite and strength
returned. After taking eight bottles my
health was fully restored, and l am again
able TO attend TO my business. - Isaac ID.

st James Gazette.
The ability of the car to push us has
been questioned. Ii is said that he is
far too weak in Central Asia for such an
attempt; that in point of fact we are the
stronger Of the two, and that he knows
it. We are persuaded that there is error
here which it IS foolish to indulge. No
authority whatever is or can be advanced
for the statement thGt Russia is UMPIRE
pared for an incursion in great force.
For the contrary opinion there is the au-
thority of not one or two, but all the
most experienced and highly placed SOL
diers in India. Some time ago these
men warned the government that there
was q reason to believe a movement was
on foot in Central Asia which might

Responsible British officers, men who
had mapped out the routes and measured
them, came to the following conclusion,
that, even surprising Russia had to watch
the German and Austrian frontiers with
900, 600 troops of all arms, she could
spare as many as POO, 600 men for opera
tious in the direction OF India. Russia
can. in seventy seven days after issuiug
the orders, put about %, 600 men on
Herat. with a reserve Of like strength
which could arrive in from forty to fifty
days afterwards. with Il, 000more possibly
available within twenty days of nerat.
