Alcohol a Poison.

We put drop OF alcohol into a

upon the lining Of a Lying stomach.
Again it poisons it. We study, after
death, the stomach of drinking men,
and find alcohol produces in regular
stages redness, intense congestion,
morbid secretions, deeper hurt, de-
struction OF parts, utter ruin. We
study its influence upon the health

DYSPEPSIA.

Sedentary habits, mental worry, nervous
excitement, excess or imprudence in eat
ing or drinking, and various other causes,
induce Constipation followed by general
arrangement of the liver, kidneys, and
stomach, in which the disorder of each
organ increases the intirmity of the others.
The Immediate results are Loss of Appe-
lite, Nausea, Foul Breath, Heartburn, Flat
ulence, Dizziness, Sick Headaches, failure
of physical and mental vigor, distressing
sense Of weightand fulness in the stomach,
and increased Costiveness, all of which are
known under one head as Dyspepsia.
Inevery instance where this disease does
not originate from scrofulous faint in the
blood, AYERS PILLS may be confidently
relied upon to effect cure. Those cases
not Gmenable to the curative influence of
AYERS PILLS alone will certainly yield II
the PILLS are aided by the powerful blood
purifying properties of AYERS SARsAPA-
RILLA.
Dyspeptics should know that the loEger
treatment of their malady is postponed,
the more difficult OF cure it becomes.

Changed His Mind.

Mr.. Vanderbilt never gave q thought
TO an artists or an architects reputa-
ton. He couldn't understand why q
man should complain of a change in his
plans which would iniure him, SO long
as the owner and employer paid for it.
When the plans for his big house were
in course of preparation he was urged
by his architect to prepare for larger
dining-room than he was contemplating.
Why said the man of art, "you
can't give banquets in such a ROOM.
20, d-n banquets. Tin not going to
give any"
but you must 4 man can't live in
such house as you are building with
out giving large entertainment"
.'Well, if / give any," said Vanderbilt,
'.l'll give them in the picture-gallery.
The picture-gallery adjoined the
dining-room. SO the buffers pantry was
arranged TO open into both rooms But
one morning, when the walls of the
great house had gone up two stories,
Mr.. Vanderbilt made his appearance in
his architects office. Hunt was build
ing William k. 5 house, and was giving
the young man noble banquet-hall,
thirty feet high and splendid with
carving.
"Why. my sons dining-soom's going
TO be bigger than mine, shouted the
excited millionaire, wiping the perspira-
ton from his brow Il can't have that,
anyhow he continued.
Il thought this was all settled. I
thought -"
10, no matter about that. / won't
have my sons dining-room bigger than
mine. How much will 1T cost to change
mine and make it biggerg'
"A good deal, answered the archi-
tect. There will have to be new
foundations, the walls that are up will
have to be taken down, and
what do I care for that? How much
will it costp"
The architect made some figures, and
told MIR. Vanderbilt that it would cost
$4,000.
"Well, go on and do it, was the
answer.
But the architect objected He told
Mr.. Vanderbilt that to tear down the
walls would hurt his reputation. People
would think that there had been a de-
feet in his plans. The Crpsus heard
this in open-mouthed astonishment, and
when the architect at last asked:
What will the sidewalk committee
sayp'' answered.:
What is that to you? Don't pay
for it?''- Boston Post
