The Reason Why

Ayers Pills are SO popular is, that
while always reliable as cathartio
medicine, they never leave any i'll
effects. This is because they are purely
vegetable, and entirely free from Gallo
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:
81 suffered a 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. took them
regularly for @ few months, and my
health was completely restored"

Complaints are the most prevalent.

Dys

and Constipation are almost universal.
Mr.. GALLAGHER, practical chemist, Of
Roxbury, Mass, who was long troubled
with Dyspepsia, writes:
A friend induced me to try Ayers
Pills, and, after taking one box without
much benefit, I was disposed TO quit
them; but he urged perseverance, and,
before / had finished the second box,
began to experience relief. / continued
taking them, at intervals, until had
used eleven boxes. Suffice it TO say,
that am now 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
O 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

JIlted at sixty

| lne people OF ALBION, N. Y, and oi
Medina are greatly interested in the
suit OF aged Mrs Moses Ross against
Washington Ferguson, the 77-year old
bridegroom, tor breach of promise
which was reported recently. Both
parties are well known In that and
neighboring towns, and the surprise
over the old farmers recent marriage
has been intensifed by the fact that
old Mrs. Ross had expected to be the
bride herself. How Mr.. Ferguson sue,
ceeded in winning these two aged
hearts is a mystery, for he is by no
means prepossessing in personal ap.
pearance. He IS rather large man

OF white whiskers and Is bald headed

lie is believed to be worth about
$3.50, 900, and since his wife died a few
months ago he has been followed about
by severa! designing women.
Mrs. Ross, who is bringing suit for
$50, 900 to repair her broken heart, ia
q widow and stanch pillar of the
Methodist Church. She is exactly
sixty years cid and looks her age. She
lost her husband about the time Mr..
Ferguson's wife died. =. a. The two farm
houses were lonesome, and during the
winter MIR. Ferguson was In the habit
OF hobbling over the snow to Widow
Ross's tireside to pass the evening. 1t
was while sitting in the glow OF the
freight at these times that the old
farmer, so Mrs. Ross says, told her of
his money and his love. The only
hitch they had was in fixing the date
Of the marriage. The old farmer
wanted to be married in the spring,
while Mrs. Ross preferred to start In
on another married lie in the tall.
MIR. Ferguson complained that he
would be useless on a wedding tour in
cold weather, because when the snow
came his rheumatism always seized
him and drove him indoors like bear
in winter quarters. Mrs. Ross was
willing TO make the date MAY and
fully expected to be married early that
month. She set TO work and made
herself quantity of uuderclothes and
knit herself some stockings. She
bought lot of silk and was getting
ready to make her wedding dress
when the news OF her expected hus
bands marriage reached her. She
started out Immediately for lawyer
and began the suit for damages. Her
only explanation OF Mr. Ferguson's
conduct is that she believes ''he want
ed to be mean"
Mr.. Ferguson is happily spending
his honeymoon with his bride, who
was maiden of so years. He seems
very little concerned about the suit
and says he can bring out facts enough
in defense to save himself from paying
the $50, 900.
