| Tdo not believe that

has an equal as q cure
for Scrofl.lous HUI
mors. 1t is pleasant
to take, gives strength
to the body, and pro-
duceS o more perma-

| 1 have used Ayers
Sarsaparilla, in my
family, for Scrofula,
and know, if it s
taken faithfully it will
thoroughly eradicate
this terrible disease.

| For forty years I
have suffered with
Erysipelas. I have
tried various remedies
for my complaint, but
found no relief until
[ commenced using
Ayers Sarsaparilla.
After taking ten bot
ties of this medicine I
am completely cured.
M. G. Amesbury,
Rockpor5, Me.
I have suffered, for
years, from Catarrh,
which was so severe
that it destroyed my
appetite and weak
ened my sys t e m.
After trying other
remedies, without re-
lief, I began to take
Ayers Sarsaparilla,
and, in a few months,
was cured. Susan L.

Ayers Sarsaparilla
is superior to any
blood purifier that I
ever tried. I have
taken it for Scrofula
G Canker, and Salt
Rheum, and received
much benefit from it.
1t is good, also, for
a weak stomach. =

ABOUT LocoMoTIvEs.-An old engineer
told me the other day that locomotives
we're habitual crauks. Why" he eaiG,
"only year ago two engines came from the
same shop, were made from the same cast
iuga, were put together By the same work
men, but one Of the two engines wouldn't
bulge an inch faster than fifteen miles an
hour, while her companion could easily roll
off sixty miles an hour under half the steam
it took to send the other engine fifteen miles
an hour. We crowded every pound CT
steam upon the fifteen miller. but no, she
wouldn't go an inch faster, although she
would draw four more heavily loaded freight
cars than the engine that rolled up sixty
miles an hour to her credit. Suddenly the
fifteen miller came 10 dead stop between
stations, aud there she stuck and couldn't
be made TO move again. Almost at the
same time the sixty miller, on another por-
ton of the road, came to dead stop also,
and she couldn't be made to move. Both
engines were drawn back to the shop, were
taken apart, examined, put together again,
but no, they could not be made to move,
even under $50 pounds Of eteam. Stop lun.
ming they would. and stop running they did
although both Of them arc not year old.
Finally they we're broken up and sold for
ola Junk. 1t is not always the bright. new
engine you see That is the best. In the
round house we have some :od tubs, on of
fashion, that can aud do beat the new en-
gines in speed and drawing capacity every
day, end are always reliable. You think
locomotives are expensive They used to be.
You can get fine locomotive nowadays for
s., 900 or $4,000 that formerly cost $40 900
or $4,000. Competition did it.'-Albdny
