Why go West

when such grand opportunities await you in
West Virginia, Maryland and the famous
Shenandoah Valley, Virginia, a section pos
sessiug all the requisites RIO health, comfort
aud prosperity,
No region in the United States is attracting
greater attention than those States, people
from the North, West and extreme South
are looking that way with the view of locat-
ing. Improved farm lands are to be OBJ
tanned at from SS per acre and upwards, un-
improved timber and grazing lands at from
81 to 5000 per acre.
Rich mineral lands are cheap, excellent
waters powers, manufacturing sites, business
locations, etc, are numerous. The schools
and churches are excellent; the people are
hospitable aud extend warm welcome to
new comers. The climate is unequaled, no
severe storms or cyclones, no contagious dis
eases.
If you wish to know more about these
States, you should write to NJ. V. Richards,

In the Corcoran gallery at Washington is a
famous painting of Charlotte, represented as
behind the prison bars the day be fore her
execution.
It is a thrilling, sad picture, full Of sorrow
for her suffering country, and of uneonqueTa-
bic hate tor her eountry's enemies.
What lesson in this tragic story Two
hundred, nay, five hundred thousand people
would Marat have sacrificed to his unholy
passion of power
Methods are quite as murderous and mex
orable as men aud they number their victims
by the millions.
The page of history is full of murderssby
authority and by mistaken ideas In the
practice Of medicine alone how many hun
dreds Of millions have been allowed to die
and as many more killed by unjustihable
bigotry and by buugling

DDS are improving. A few years ago it was
worth ones professional life to advise or

To-day there are not two physicians in any
town in this country who do not regularly
prescribe some form Of proprietary remedy !
H. H. Warner. famed all over the world as
the discoverer of Warmers safe cure, began
hunting up the oldremedies ofthe Log Cabin
days; after long and patient research he sue
ceeded in securing some Of the most valua-
bic among family records, and called them
Warmers Log Cabin remedies-the simple
preparation of roots, leaves. balsams and
herbs which were the successful standbys of
our grandmothers. These simple, old-fash-
toned sarsaparilla, hops and Duehu, cough
aud consumption and other remedies have
struck a popular chord and are In extraordi-
nary demand all over the land They are
not the untried and imaginary remedies Of
some dabster chemist intent on making
money, but the ioug-sought principles of the
healing art which for generations kept our
ancestors in perfect health, put forth for the
good of humanity by one who is known all
over the world as philanthropist-a lover
Of his fellow man-whose name is guaran-
tee of the highest standard of excellence.
The preparations are ofdecided and known
influence over disease, and as in the hands Of
our grandmothers they raised up the sick,
cured the lame, and bound up the wounds Of
DEATH so in their new form but olden power
as Log Cabin remedies, they are sure to prove
the f'healing of the nations"
Corday did the world an incalculable ser
vice in ridding France of the bigoted and
murderous Marat, just as this man is doing
humanity a service by re-introducing to the
world the simpler and better methods of our
ancestors.

no avail as the flesh was cold. Mrs.

symptoms of nsanity-neither was
she of a moIose disposition. Her do
nestle life has not always been of the
most congrDial character, but of this
she seldom spoke, even to her children.
She was a native of Phenixville, Pa,
and was married about twenty-five
years ago to Edward Shaw, who then
resided in Peabody. Mass. In deter.

planned to make no failure, for she laid

husband was away from home, work

sons was in New York on the schooner
Ella r. Simpson. Coroner Truittwas
notified and held an inquest in the
afternoon. The jury found a verdict
that said, MRS. Shaw came to her
death by strangulation by her own

BOiIs and CarbunCTes,

which defy ordinary treatment, yield to
Ayers Sarsaparilla after a comparative
ly brief trial.
Mr.. G. X. Murray, Of Charlottesville,
Va, writes that for years he was af-
fiicted with boils which caused him
much suffering, These were succeeded
by carbuncles, Of which he had several
at one time. He then began the use Of
Ayers Sarsaparilla, and after taking
three bottles, the carbuncles disap-
peared, and for six years he has not had
even pimple.
That insidious disease, Scrofula, is
the fruitful cause of innumerable COM
plants, Consumption being only one OF
many equally fatal. Eruptions, ulcers,
sore eyes, glandular swellings, weak
and wasted muscles, capricious appe-
tite, and the like, are pretty sure indi-
cations of a scrofulous taint in the
system. Many otherwise beautiful faces
are disfgured by pimples, eruptions,
and unsightly blotches, which arise
from impure blood, showing the need Of
Ayers Sarsaparilla to remedy the evil.
All sufferers from blood disorders
should give Ayers Sarsaparilla a fair
trial, - avoiding all powders, ointments,
and washes, and especially cheap and
worthless compounds, which not only
fail to effect a cure, but more frequently
aggravate and confirm the diseases they
are fraudulently advertised TO remedy.
