contain no mineral nor poisonous sub
stance, and do not grippe unless the
bowels are irritated, and even then their
influence Is healing. To continue their
effect in constipated or chronic cases, they
need only be taken in diminishing instead
of increasing doses. For seamen, and In
habitants or travellers in sparsely settled
countries where physicians are not at
hand, they are Of inestimable value.
There is hardly sickness they will not
alleviate, and In most cases cure, II taken
promptly. To young girls just entering

period Of maternity IS drawing to close,
Ayers Pills, in moderate doses, merely
sufficient to ensure regular action Of tho

The entire delegation of visiting Da-
kotans went with the manager of the
Dakota News Bureau last evening to the
National theatre to see the Black Hus-
sar. 1t was a very tame performance;
but the music was superb. 1t is a COM

something, with the nothing predom-
mating.
Chairman Ryse, of the Marshall coun-
ty Democratic committee; is still here.
He has not been appointed to an Office.
and his temper is no better than it ought
to be. However, he has lots of patience
and plenty Of money. That's a great
combination. Ryse went to Norfolk,
and thence by water to Baltimore, and
has been talking of the trip eyer since.
He believes that Norfolk has the finest
harbor in the world, and that Baltimore
is built too far up the river. He thinks
Norfolk will be bigger than New York
some day. Maybe it will but it will be
when you and l are so derned dead
that we won't know anything about 1t.
