The other wonder of the world to
San Diegoans IL the great fiume. It
h really q gigantic project, and UNI
doubtedly one Of the greatest single
factors Of the many advantages going
to enhance tho Importance Of San Die
20. It IL nothing LEES than the Inn
pounding Of the pure, sweet water OF
the Cuyamaca mountains, fifty
miles from here, and carrying It to the
city, furnishing an abundance Of
water for city Of 200 .00o inhabitar. :,
and enough besides to irrigate 100000
acres Of mesa land ON its way. A dam
10 built across mountain canon, and
Q lake Of cold, crystal water two miles
long and eighteen feet deep at the
dam IL formed. The water 10 brought
to the city through . large trapezoid-
81 nume Of redwood. The daily Ca
pacity ofthe iume will be 10000. 600
gallons. This great enterprise will be
completed March LIST. and the present
somewhat defective water supply Of
the city will be superseded by sup
ply not exceeded in quality or quanti-
ty In the world. And its contribu.
ton to the development of San Diego's
shack country" will be Of incalculable
benefit to the city.
Notwithstanding the multitudinOus
reports Of a"busted"b boom that flyback
to the east from this coast, the rush
seems almost unchecked. Eighty.

Dyspepsia

and Constipation are almost universal.
Mr.. GALLAGHER, practical chemist, OF
Roxbury, Mass, who was long troubled
with Dyspepsia, writes:
ga friend induced me to try Ayers
Pills, and, after taking one box without
much benefit, was disposed to quit
them; but he urged perseverance, and,
before 1 had finished the second box, |
began to experience relief. continued
taking them, at intervals, until had
used eleven boxes. Suffice 1t to say,
that am now a well man, and grateful
to your chemistry, which outstrips
mine.''
The head and stomach are always in
sympathy hence the cause OF most OF
those distressing headaches, to which
so many, especially women, are subject.
Mrs. Harriet A. Marble, of Poughkeep-
sic, N. Y, writes that for years she was
a martyr to headache. and never found
anything to give her more than tenn
porary relief, until she began taking
Ayers Pills, since which she has been
in the enjoyment OF perfect health.
Democratic Northwest. [volume] (Napoleon, Ohio) 1869-1894, 1888-02-23
The Reason Why

Ayers Pills are so popular is, that
while always reliable as cathartic
medicine, they never leave any i'll
effects. This is because they are purely
vegetable, and entirely free from calo-
mel or any other dangerous drug. In
all cases, therefore, whether the patient
be old or young, they may be conf
IDENTIFY administered.
In the Southern and Western States,
where arrangements of the liver are so
general, Ayers Pills have proved an in
estimable blessing. D. W. Baine, New
Berne, N. c., writes:
"I suffered long time with stomach
and liver troubles. tried various rem
edies, but received no benefit until
commenced taking Ayers Pills. These
pills benefited me at once. l took them
regularly for a few months, and my
health was completely restored"
Throughout New England, next to
lung diseases, Stomach and Bowel
Complaints are the most prevalent.
