CASUAL LISTENER" in Mondays Pion-
eer Press says: ~ was shown letter yes
terday from Southern Minnesota that,
among other topics, touched on political
subjects. One little point ! noted down,
as it may be of interest to the gentle
man to whom 1t refers. Eli Warner is
under the impression that he has the
votes of Blue Earth county snugly
stored away in his pocket, but he will
be very badly fooled on that this fall"
1t is believed that Casual Listener"
has been contidenced. We do not be.
lieve that Ell Warner has any idea thai
he carries the votes of Blue Earth coun'
ty in his pocket. Eli is sharp enough
to know that the people here usually
vote and act about as they please. 1t il
evident that the letter referred to eman
ated from a jealous mind or deceased
brain.

she might go with them. Childhood's sor-
rows, heaven be thanked, are soon forgotten.
Princes melancholy image faded rapidly from
her mind, under the inspiration Of the hour.
The river was like glass, and the evening
cold and clear. The party on the ice grew
larger and larger; the laughter louder and
nerrier. Bigger children, grown up chill
dren, and some who had almost forgotten
that they had ever been children, heard the
echoes Of joy, slipped the leash of their
cares and joined them
The river was soon a kaleidoscope Of fly
ing figures Like Mercury, their wings
were on their heels, and they moved with
the grace and velocity of creatures who
were more than human What dash Of
joyous life they made on the level, snow-cov.
cred landscapel
The night fell upon them so softly they
saw not the change The white snow defed
the darkness, and the far, fair-faced moon
made herself glorious, as if to do honor to
the old year, who was going forever more
away, and to greet with smiles the New Year
who was coming for brief revel over the
earth.
One figure that went ont to join the
skaters was singularly destitute Of anything
like joyousness 1t was Prince. From his
office dor1nitory, which stood near the big
bridge, he had heard the chatter of the girls
and boys as they passed by in little groups
Recognizing Grace's voice he left his shelter
and dragged himself and his aches and long
ings out into the cold and down to the edge
of the river where they were skating.
Nobody noticed him. Even Grace did not
see him, and he gave her no hint of his
presence. He would not obtrude upon her
pleasure. He was too considerate for that
He sat shivering upon the bank, his rheu-
matte body crouched into mere lump, his
bleary eyes following every movement Of
his idol with hungry affection. Though, for
the time, he was out of her mind, she was
never out of his She had other interests,
other friends, other affections He had no
other creature to give him word of kind
ness or a mouthful of food 1t was a COM
fort to him to watch her, even from q dis
lance. His life was so bitterly lonely that
be was grateful for the poor privilege of
looking at enjoyment from afar.
Grace was good skater, and when she
distanced her companions or executed a par
ticularly fine pigeon wing Prince fairly
switched his tail off in applaudatory enthusi-
asm, though nobody saw or heard him.

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 infrmity of the others.
The immediate results are Loss of Appe-
tite, Nausea, Foul Breath, Heartburn, Flat
ulence, Dizziness, Sick Headaches, failure
of physical and mental yigor, distressing
sense of weight and fullness in the stomach,
and increased Costiveness, all of which are
known under one head as Dyspepsia.
In eyery instance where this disease does
not originate from serofulous faint in the
blood, AYERS PILLS may be confidently
relied upon to effect a cure. Those cases
not amenable to the curative influence of
AYERS PILLS alone will certainly yield if
the PILES are aided by the powerful blood
purifying properties of Ayers SARsAPA-

Dyspeptics should know that the longer
treatment OF their malady is postponed,
the more difficult of cure it becomes.
