Be Sure

TO ask for Ayers Sarsaparilla, II you
are in need of a aBlood-puritier - the
only certain and reliable remedy for
pimples, blotches, and all other erup-
tions of the skin. AS an Alternative,
Ayers SarsapariIIa,
after a trial of nearly half century, is
universally conceded to be the best ever
discovered. 1t is agreeable to the taste,
and, being highly concentrated, only
small doses are needed.
An old lady Of eighty, Mrs. Mary c.
Ames, of Rockport, Me-, after forty years
of suffering from humor in the blood,
manifesting itself in Erysipelas and 9TH
er distressing eruptions on the skin, at
last began the use of Ayers Sarsaparilla,
and, after taking ten bottles, she is now,
she says, "as smooth and fair as ever"
Leander S. Mcdonald, of Solely ST.,
Charlestown, Mass, suffered greatly
from Boils and Carbuncles, and for
nearly two months was unable to work.
A druggist advised him to take Ayers
Sarsaparilla, after using two bottles of
which he was entirely cured. He has
remained in good health ever since.

such defects. 4 colony having a good

colonies sttnag at all times and furnish
with good, fertile queens. Carelessly
leaving honey about where bees can pet

will incite robhing, and the weak and de

disposition TO protect themselves, rob3ing
may be checked by simply contracting
the entrance. But il the inmates make
no resistance whatever, large sheet or
covering of light cloth may be thrown

George Keenan, contributes to the May
Century an illustrated description of his
trip across the Lssian frontier, aud the
following extract shows what the author
and the artist found when they reached
the boundary. A picture Of such scene
as the one described here forms the front
ispiece of the number. eve sprang out
of the tarantas and saw, standing by the
roadside, q square pillar ten or twelve feet
in height of succeed or plastered brick,
bearing on one side the coat of arms Of
the European province of Perm, and on
the other that of the Asietic province of
Tobalsk. II was the boundary post of
Siberia. No other spot between St, Pet
ersburg and the Pacific is more full of
painful suggestions, and none has for the
traveller a more melancholy interest than
the little opening in the forest there
stands this grief -consecrated pillar. Here
hundreds OF thousands of exiled human
beings-men, women, and children;
princes, mobiles, and peasants have bid
den good bye forever to friend, country,
and home.
mo other boundary post in the world
has witnessed so much human suffering,
or been passed by such multitude OF
heart broken people. More than 10000
exiles have travelled this road since 1873,
and more than half million since the be-
ginning OF the present century. As the
boundary post Is situated about halfway
between the last European and the first
Siberian etape, it has always been custom
airy to allow exile parties to stop here for
rest and for last good. by to home and
country. The h 3sian peasant, even when
a criminal, is deeply attached to his native
land; and heartrending scenes have been
witnessed around the boundary pillar
when such party, oyertaken perhaps by
frost and snow in the early autumn,
stopped here FOR a last farewell. Some
gave way to unrestrained grief; some
comforted the weeping; some knelt and
pressed 'aeir faces TO the loved soil of
their alive country, and collected little
earth to take with them into exile: and a
few pressed their lips to the European
side Of the cold brick pillar, as II kissing
good bye forever to all that is symbolized.
at last the stern order 'Stroi5a"
Form ranksN from the under officer of
the convoy put an end to the rest and the
leave-taking, and at the word Of March'
the gray coated troop Of exiles and con
yicts crossed themselves hastily all to
gether, and, with a confused juggling Of
chains and leg letters, moved slowly away
past the boundary post into Siberia"

good deal of amusement is furnished
this spring by the wife OF a certain Sen
ator who always calls her husband

ing big and burly and not very nice about
his person, but she seems to think it is
pretty pet name, and uses The term of en-

whether she speaks of him to others,

so frequently that when Darling" Is re-
ferred to now everybody knows who is
meant.

said to another Senator'S wife the other

attend one of those hOrrid committee
meetings What dreadful things they

ing says if it wasn't for his committee
work he could spend lots of time with
me."3
The other Senators have Caught on, +"
so TO speak, and now seldom allude to
their colleague by any other in his
absence of course. One Senator came
very near making a bluudor the other
day by using it at the wrong time. He
entered the committee-roOm little late,
and "a he took of his coat and gloves,
looked around the table, at which haif-a
dozen or more Senators We're seated, and
asked:
where's DarlingW
There were some frantic gestures to
ward a book case at the other end of the
room, and the late conner blushed deeply
and looked alarmed. Darling was be
hind a maprack, where he could not be
seen, and if he overheard the remark be
showed no sign.

How Western Man Baited a Barbed-Wire
Fence and Hade Big Haul.
Iowa Falls Register
Mr. Thomas had a large farm on the
Missouri bottoms near Sioux City, 1t
was all fenced with barb wire, there being
two miles of such fencing on tke place.
He happened in Sioux City just about the
time that the gorge M the river had
damned the water TO such prodigious
height, Foreseeing that when the gorge
broke it would be likely to raise the
water to such an extent as to flood his
farm, he rode hastily home and made
preparations accordingly. His stock and
all that was movable was transferred to
higher ground. Then he aud his hired
man proceeded to impale small chunks of
meat on every barb of that wire fence.
II was big Job, but it was finished just
as the river began TO cover the lower
pasture lot. For twenty.six hours the
water stood five feet above the top of the
highes5 fence post and when il receded
the most remarkable sight sight WAS re-
vealed. From every barb, except three,
Of that two miles of fencing, hung a fish.
There were pickerel, bass, pike, suckers,
and every other Imaginable variety. A
simple calculation will show precisely the
size of the haul. 1t was five wire fence,
each wire having thir;y-six barbs to the
rod, making, as any school boy can tell
you, total of 1920 barbs to the two
miles of foncing. There were three barbs
that had caught nothing, SO there we're
only 115,l97 fish, Perhaps the most re-
markable part of the story is to come.
From that day to this in all parts Of the
Missouri river there have been caught
just three fish, the exact number that
didn't get caught on our friends barbed-
wire fence.
