AYERS
Cherry Pectoral.

No other complaints areso insidious in their
attack as those affecting the throat and lungs:
none so trided with by the majority of suffer-
ers. The ordinary cough or cold, resulting
perhaps from trifing or unconscious ex-
posure, is often but the beginning of fatal
sickness. AYERS CHERRY PECToRAL has
well proven its efficacy in a forty years fight
with throat and lung diseases, and should be
taken in all cases without delay.
A Terrible Cough Cured.
"In 1857 took severe cold, which affected
my lungs. had terrible cough, and passed
night after night without sleep. The doctors

TORAL, which relieved my lungs, induced
sleep, and afforded me the rest necessary
for the recovery of my strength. By the
continued use of the PECToRAL a perma-
nent cure was effected. / am now 62 years

"While in the country last winter my little
boy, three years old, was taken ill with Group;
1t seemed as if he would die from strangu-
lation. One of the family suggested the use
OF AYERS CHERRY PICTORIAL, a bottle of
which was always kept in the house. This
to our delight in less than half an hour the
little patient was breathing easily. The doc
tor said that the CHERRY PECTORAL had
saved my darling's life. Can you wonder at
our gratitude? Sincerely yours,

A LION TAMER's NERVE E.-Forbes,
in his "Soldiering and Scribling,"
says: Crockett made the greatest
name for himself of any lion tanner,
not in England alone, but also in
France, Germany and America. /
remember well the time when the six
lions were loose at one time at Asst
ley's. The Sangers had sent the
beasts up from Edmonton the night
before. Nobody to this day knows
how they got out of their dens; but
it was thought at the time that some
of the grooms-with whom the man
ager was very unpopular, he used to
fine them so unmercilessly-had let
them loose maliciously, that they
might get at the horses. There they
were, anyhow, loose and mad in the
place, smelling the horses and mad
to get at them. They had already
killed a man, and hall eaten him,
when Crockett arrived; without halt
ing an instant, he dashed in among
them single-handed, with only
switch in his hand, and I'm blest if
he didn't manage to den them all sim
gle-handed. That was nerve for
you. At that time Crockett never
drank.

thing came between.
There was a sudden rustling of the
bushes. He heard low cry from
her lips, as large dog sprang ON to
the path. his blood-shot eyes and
frothing lips betraying his madness.
The creature sprang toward her, but
the man was quicker.
He had thrown himself between
them, and grasped the dog firmly by
his throat.
'sRun for your life!' he said, feel
ing his strength could not long hold
out against such odds; but to his ut
ter amazement she stood still.
"You shall not die for me !" she
said.
Then he remembered that in his
pocket was pistol he had carried for
protection when at night he had been
intrusted with money by the firm.
He told her where to find it.
s'Hold him a minute longer!" she
said.
The next, a sharp shot rang out
on the air, his hands relaxed, and the
brute fell bleeding at his feet.
He turned toward her.
She was very pale, and the pistol
had fallen from her hold, and her
eyes were fixed on his hands.

He held them toward her.
"Yes," he answered, "though l
have saved your life for another man
l who have dared to love you!'
ssThere is but one man," she said,
"to whom l will belong, and he it is
who for my sake has dared to face a
most awful death. Alex, it needed
this to lay bare our souls one to the
other"
Then she burst into bitter weeping
but her tears fell on his breast.

A little rain, the sun again,
A shadow;
A summer day, some new-mown hay,
A meadow.
A girlish face, a matchless grace,
And beauty:
We spend the day in making hay

Some fading flowers, some happy hours,
But feeting.
A week of rain, and then again
A meeting.
One quick shy look, ripping brook,
Some clover;

To miss it.

In the fields and woods so bright,
'Mong the singing birds and the lowing herds
And the clover blossoms white.

Is the music sweet to me,
AS the dewy flowers in the early hours,
The gems love to see.
OH give me the breeze from the waving trees,
The murmur of summer leaves;
And the swallows song as he skins along,
Or twitters beneath the caves!
The plowman's shout as he's turning out
His team at set of sun,
Or his merry good night by the fire -fy's light
When his daily work is done.
And give me the root and luscious fruit,
My own hands rear for food;
And the bread so light, and honey white,
And the milk so pure and good!
For sweet the bread of labor is,
When the heart is strong and true,
And the blessings will come to the hearth and hon

Nearly Drowned in the Jordan.

After all the terrible consequences to
small boys who run away from Sunday
school and 60 swimming in the treacher-
GUS Jordan, they still refuse to heed adj
vice or profit by the innumerable
"morals" accompanying such actions
Yesterday squad of urchins, ranging
from six to fourteen years of age, and
consisting of bootblacks, Office boys and
two Cinnamon who thought they needed
washing, went to the Jordan, and came
very near leaving one of their number
behind. Willie Gilbert, a son of
one OF the city firemen, was play
ing "duck," and getting into the
stream beyond his depth he went under
Some of his chums, as it is told, went
after him, and he was brought ashore,
where he was rolled, rubbed and finally
brought back to consciousness. This,
with the frequent accidents from going in
the Jordan, should suffice to warn small
boys from continuing the dangerous prac-
tice, and cause parents and guardians TO
keep closer watch over their thought

and escorted through the streets by a
deputy United States marshal to dem
lists Office on Main street, for the pur-
pose OF having his teeth fixed, as crack
ing corn and chewing third-cut beef
steaks seems to have impaired his needed
molars. Meanwhile his successor was on
the streets assessing all transients he
could muzzle according to the law. Some
'"Tin Horns" were caught and many
others who were not before known
as being liable. Mr.. Charlton
Jacobs, the new deputy, is a
rustler in the capacity, and seems to have
inaugurated new move in this line
which may finally eliminate in such
rigorous law as is enforced in Nevada and

GAME DOES NOT APOLOGIZE.
Expressions of Loyalty to the
.'Dear Old FIag,'' and a Protest
Against Misrepresentation.

John 7. Game made rather damaging
admissions in the Tabernacle yesterday
when he tried to justify the lowering Of
flags to half-mast on the public build
ings on the Fourth. His remarks in
the beginning were favored with apollo
gies for the act, and his expressions of
loyalty for the "dear old flag" which
they were accused of publicly insulting,
were profuse and fowery. He said that
by expressing their sorrow for the in
Justice they were receiving at the hands
of the officers of the government through
having their people imprisoned without
just cause, by having the flags at half
mast on the anniversary of our National
independence, the Mormons had placed
the straw in the hands OF their enemies
that has developed into cudgel through
misrepresentation. He then said: eve
don't intend to try to please our enemies /;
we don't want anybody to Judge and con-
strue our sentiments we have no apollo
gies to make, for our acts were not treas
enable we were here when our enemies
came, and We will be here when they are
dead and forgotten"
From the drift of his pseudo-sermon it
is evident that most of the leaders coun-
seled and were parties to the half-mast-
ing of the flags. He put considerable
stress on the assertion that the Mormons
had been accused of everything but
being fools, and that they were hardly
prepared to make fools of themselves by
any overt acts, at this late date yet from
his manner of putting it, he evidently
feared that they had.
A few lame excuses and protestations
of loyalty by the leaders will hardly set
the Mormon people right before the
world, and as to their protestations that
no insult was meant to the flag everyone
can draw their own conclusions from the
fact that no action was taken to punish
those who did the work The white
washing" process makes it only evident
that the leading men OF the Mormon
church were the real offenders, and the
city officers were puppets in their hands
