OLD AGE.
How Mans Lease of Life may Do
Lengthened.

How Mans Lease OA AAO AAA~y -
Heightened.
The possibility Of prolonging life has
commanded the serious attention OF emil
nent scientists, and the discovery OF
some compound or elixir capable OF pre-
venting or suspending physical decay, mas
been, more than once, confidently pre-
dicted. TIE practical thing to consider
is. however, the prolongation of life by
proper care of the health, one of the
best mears Of maintaining which is the
occasiona. use of Ayers Pills. S. c.
Bradburn, worthington, Mass, says:
layers Pills are
THE BEST
remedy for sick headache, arising from
an impure state of the stomach, and are
the mildest and best purgative in the
world. They were first recommended to
me, by my mother, thirty years ago."
Mrs. j. G. Smith, Campbelltown, Ga,
says: Il have been cured of rheumatism,
and am now enjoying good health, through
the use of Ayers Pills. I am nearly
seventy years of age" Mark johnson,
Monterey, Mexico, says: Il have used
Ayers Pills for the past thirty years. and
am satisfied that should not now be alive
had it not been for these Pills. By using
them l have been enabled to avoid the
bilious diseases peculiar to this climate
J. V. Thompson, Mount Cross, Va, says:
"Ayer's Pills gave me quick and
HAPPY RELIEF
from bilious and sick headaches. l have
now used them for two Years, with in
creasing satisfaction" NJ. V. Watson,
l52 State ST., Chicago, ILL.,, says: Zone

Pills as remedy for Indigestion, Con-
stipation. and Headache, from which /
had been great sufferer. found the
action Of these Pills easy, and obtained
prompt relief. In continuing their use, a
single Pill, taken after dinner, has been
all the medicine / have required. Ayers
Pills have benefited me more than all the
medicines ever before tried" DIT. Sum-
mers, p. NJ. Waysde, Hans. says: "My
wife suffered, for several years, with Cos
tiveness and Sick Headache. She was
completely cured by using Ayers Pills."

THE COMING MAN.

Among the many attainments which we
NAV reasonably expect the coming man to
possess, will be a perfect knowledge OF
the human system. He will also hive q
thorough appreciation of the Importance
of Ayers Pills, as means of keeping the
system in healthy condition, and of their
power to cure Dyspepsia, Liver Com
pIaint, and Sick Headache. VIM. Tar
rant, Alexandria, Va, writes: being q
victim of that horrible disease, Dyspepsia,

TIE sExrors STORY.

Van the strange tales that sections can
tell were put together in one volume, the
book would be more fascinating than Arab
ian Nights or Pilgrims Progress. Sections
zee many sides of life, and of death too,
which other folks know very little about.
From the orange blossoms of the wedding
procession to the black robes Of the funeral
cortegc is but step in the every day life
Of the sexton. He knows all the gossip
among the church people, and keeps in
his head, more or less, the accurate account
Of those who come regularly, and of those
who stay away. Nobody except the doctor
and the minister know as much as the
sexton knows Of what is going on in the
community.
Sexton Judd, Of the North Church in
New Haven, Conn, is as well known as
the church itself; the church being one of
the most famous ecclesiastical landmarks
Of orthodoxy. His genial face and pleasant
smile are part of the recognized religious
features Of the city. He has CHEEKY
word for everybody, and so has everybody
for him. Some time ago Sexton Judd had
severe tussle, not with ghosts, nor with
the powers Of darkness, but with an enemy
Of the human race, which singled him ont
for its victim and laid him on his back in
grieyous torture. As that same enemy had
knocked down so many good people who
have not yet obtained the victory In which
Sexton Judd rejoices, Mr.. Judd's story
" of personal interest to thousands. We
will let him tell it as he recently told it to
friend who called on him in New Haven:
For a good many years | had been
troubled with the pains Of neuralgia, par
ticularly those which attack the hip and
thigh, in the way Of sciatica. AT times
they were severe, and then for some tine
l would have almost none. But about two
years ago felt the sciatic attack coming
ON me stronger than 1t had ever come be
fore; For TOUR or iive days the pains
would strike me at intervals, just as il to
let me know that big attack was coming.
Well, it came, in full force, and all OF Il
sudden, was at the store, for during
the week am BUSY with cnrtaIn-ilxtares,

The prisoners were all perfectly
cool and collected, and as Boston
Buck seated himself he turned and
chatted pleasantly with his counsel,
Edward Duffy, Esq. The only excep-

himself particularly interested was
Ed. Harmon. He eyed the Judge
with steady scowl. Attorney Moore,
when asked by the Court if be had
anything to say in behalf of the pris
ouer, said that the fairness of the
trial left no room for him to say a
word. "The age of Boston Buck
makes it almost a sentence till death, :"
he continued, land l have no doubt
you have considered it. The mercy
which has been recommended will no
doubt be borne in mind" Attorney
Duffy added that he was satisfied to
leave the matter in the hands Of the
Court, as he bad done and said all
that he could.
Said old man Buck, after his sen.
tence, to a reporter: "Let them go
ahead, there will be a sentence here.
