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 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. ID. w. Baine, New
Berne, N. c., writes:
81 suffered long time with stomach
and liver troubles. l 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.

Dyspepsia

and Constipation are almost universal.
Mr. GALLAGHER, a 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, 1 was disposed to quit
them; but he urged perseverance, and,
before L had finished the second box, 1
began to experience relief. | continued
taking them, at intervals, until l had
used eleven boxes. Suffice it to say,
that l am now well man, and grateful
to your chemistry, which outstrips
mine"

martyr to headache, and never found

porary relief. until she began taking
Ayers Pills since which she has been

PRACTICAL 6OLON.
He Finds Protection Strong Among
Western Farmers

CHICAGO, Oct. 3. ,
Solon Chase of Maine, owner of "them
steers that figured so conspicuously in the
greenback campaign in Maine several years
ago, is At the Grand Pacific. He arrived
yesterday afternoon, jolly, fat and hungry.
He was ressed in homespun, wore Z broad
brim hits felt hat, hickory shirt and stand
up collar minus q neckte. On the way to the
dining room he told Tribune reporter that
he had been making speeches for Mr.. Har-
rison" in Michigan and was ready to start in
on the same work in the close districts of
Illinois. Greenbackism, he said was dead
because the republican party had no longer
made it necessary to raise sach an issue,
and prohibition leaders had disgusted the
rank and file of the temperance men, and
they were flocking into the republican ranks.
IL tell YOU" said Mr.. Chase, 'they may
talk about the farmers wanting free trade,
but it is false. They are wide awake for
protection because they have read of and
understand this tariff question better than
the politici ans think they do" Mr.. Chase
was taken to the table where Gen. Martin of
the republican State central committee was
dining. This was unintentional, but it
proved fortunate for Mr.. Chase, as he is in
Chicago for the express purpose of conferr-
ing with Mr.. Martin.

AN ASSORTED COMPANY
Leave Portland for Thomaston Under
the Escort OF Warden Bean.

PORTLAND, Oct. 3.
Quite a crowd collected at the station this
morning to see Warden Bean and party of
six convicts of for Thomaston. Moore, the
burglar, was shackled to Edward A. Green
leaf, convicted of the larceny of money st
Gorham. Moore is to stay in Thomaston %
years and Greenleaf Is months. Raymond,
MoOre's partner, was shackled to Thomas j.
Bennett, the Falmouth horse thief. Ray
mond is in for five years and Bennett for
three years. Edward \. Chase, the mur-
derer of Mrs. Ida NJ. Stevens, was shackeled
to Arnold ). Chute, convicted of the larceny
of money on Green street. Chase's sentence
is for life and Chute's for two years.
None of the party was inclined to talk
Chase preserved the same wonderful calm
that has characterized him since his recovery.
At no time has he shown any emotion, and ii
is probable that he has realized what his SEN
tence must be and was prepared for it.
Raymond illustrated the old adage about
1.-the ruling passion strong in death" He
sold a valise and gave away four fine laun-
Iered shirts that it contained, remarking that
they would not be of any further use to him.
He was probably right, as, before the dstri-
button of property had finished it was learned
that the vallse and clothing belonged to
Moore and not to him at all.

"Er Couple o Skunks."

last summer with Helderburg farmer" Il
gentleman said to an Albany Journal rambler
ION the Knowersville local train. and
think | ache yet with laughter. The farmer
was an unusually bucolic-looking fellow
with four years mud on his heavy boots.
We hadn't got far out of knowersville-ex-
cuse me, Attamont, when Bsggageman Nc
Chestney burst into the car and stalked up
to the farmer with an expression on his face,
that might have betokoned anxiety, curiosity
or sorrow, afterward fourd
that it involved all three. He
said Say, what in - have you got in
that carpet bag Of yours?' The countryman
shrank back in his seat, while half grieved,
half fearful expression spread across his
good natured face. 'l-I-well-I only got a
a-couple O. skunks in it, he stammered. 1t
tran.pired that he had caught two skunks
and decided that the best way to get them in
to the city was to put them into his carpet
bag and check it to Albany. OF course, as
it was checked, Mac couldn't throw it off, so
he tied it by string between the cars and
left it there to bump along over the ties and
air itsef. | don't advise anybody to men
ton this little episode to Mac unless prepar-
ed to encounter spell of stormy weather"

A TwO-FOLD GRIEVANCE
Claimed BY Striking Street Car Men
in Chicago.

CHICAGO, Oct. 8.
The north side street car conductors and
drivers decided at four, this morning, to 60
out on a strike next Saturday morning. The
vote was 400 to I. The grievances of the
men are two-fold. They oppose the set-car
system and demand increased wages.
BY the set-car system 10 meant schedule or
time table, by means of which the men
claim to be actually on duty for 10
hours, while they are only paid
for IL hours. The hours Of work
under it are changed daily, SO that they have
no regular time for sleeping or eating, and
their health is consequently impaired.
They demand 81 cents an hour and an
agreement that they shall not be compelled
to work more than 10 nor less than hours .
day.
The conductors, drivers and eripmen en-
ployeo on the north side lines, number about
700 Over two-thirds Of the city's popula-
ton is dependent upon these two railway
systems for the transportation to and from
their homes. Nearly 100 are employed on
the west end lines.

The Gallant Generosity OF Southener
to Former Foe

The following touching little romance
shows how the old spirit of sectional hatred
has. with the lapse of years, softened into a
more fraternal feeling Some time since =
letter from Major in the Confederate ser
vice was received in the Secretary of States
Office inqulring for the whereabouts of a
certain Lieutenant belonging TO the Fourth
Maine regiment. The writer stated that on
the 3rd of july 1868, during the battle Of
Gettysburg the officer sought for had given
up his sword in surrender. Since
the end of the late war he
had made many vain endeavors to find the
owner of the weapon, and now sought the
aid of the State from which he came. The
communication was handed 10 the Adiutant
General who after many inquiries succeeded
in locating the lieutenant in question and
Informed the confederate officer of his ad-
dress. The southerner Immediately returned
the rusty sword which he had kept so long,
and a friendship has sprung up between
the two veterans which promises to be life
long.
Strangely enough the x-Confederatc is
located in II northern state while the Union
lieutenant is physician in the south.
