= In the spring, hundreds of persons
suffer from boils, carbuncles, aad other
eruptiye diseases. These are evidences
that the system is trying to purge itself
of impurities, and that it needs the pow

Ayers Sarsaparilla.

same time sore temptations press you VI
every hand. Shall the temptation
destroy the opportunities? Have th'
manhood to resist them. Let the money
you possess be turned to all the immenst
advantage which it gives you, and mo-
allowed to work out your destruction
Use it for your self development physi
cslly, mentally, morally, and for the
good of others and the glory of God
Then You will be able to hold your OWL
in the struggle which shall come with
your poor neighbor. Otherwise you
must go down, for in that contest it is not
so much money that counts, but strength
-of body, Of mind, of soul.
You rich fathers, how are you using
your money with respect to your boy ?
Has he free access to your pile to spend
it in any way that he sees fit. Then that
pile will rapidly diminish, and will have
nothing to show for it, but languid body,
and hollow eyes, and painted nose, and
weakening mind, and diseased soul. Are
you boarding it up to leave him when you
die? Then ten chances to one it will 60
faster than it came, and when that is all
gone, his health will be gone, his intel.
lect, what little he inherited will be gone,
his character will be gone, his usefulness
will be gone, his friends will be gone,
and he himself will be gone-to the dogs,
or may be, literally to the devil. Lay it
up in his head. Put it in his character.
Use it for making man out of him.
Then, whether you leave him a cent or
not, he will be able to make his way in
the world, and perhaps win honor, fame,
even wealth. The investment which will
pay the biggest interest in the end is the
few thousand dollars put in the educa.
ton of your boy, if the education be the
three.fold one of body and mind and soul.
Try it.
You poor young men, despair not in
your poverty. 1t is not an unmixed
evil. Ifithas the effect, by throwing you
upon yourself, of developing your re-
sources, it was but a blessing in disguise
which God sent to you. You are not
necessarily at a disadvantage in the strug-
gle Of life with that rich young man.
The chances are rather in your favor.
But it all depends on you. Success will
not come Of itself by any law of fate.
You have got to dig for it. But are you
ready for the battles Are you prepar.
ingyourself? When the trumpet sounds,

She was Osslfled.

Elizabeth Bnrride Bullock, daughter OF
Mr.. Bepjaman Burride of this city, who
died on Tuesday and was buried to-day,
was sufferer from strange ailment.
She was, so to speak, in an almost COM
plete state of ossi6cation for the past five
years, and her jointshad become stifened
SO that it was impossible for her to live.
She was a most intense sufferer from the
pain attendant upon the advances of the
disease. The contracting and drawing
of the bones and cords of the body was
agonizipg. To see the frightfully distor-
ted and emaciated remains of what was
once beautiful and perfect woman
would give, only a partial idea of what
Mrs. Bullock suffered.
The lady was rs years old at the time
other death. When 13 years of age she
was plump girl, attendant upon the
Washburn street school here.
One day, with other playmates, she
climbed tree in the neighborhood of
school, and was dared to jump from one
of the branches. This she did, breaking
her collar bone and iDjuring her right
knee. A swelling appeared on the inside
of the knee which troubled her more or
less as the years advanced. In 1873
medical aid was first called in to treat
her for her knee, the pain from which
had grown to be quite severe, she having
caught cold in the member while skat-
ing.
She married in 1874. Some years
later her bones began to stifen and
trouble her come. Five years ago the
Joints became hardened and ossifed and
she was helpless.
Her teeth were drawn out from the
upper jaw and both jaws set. Physicians
inserted piece of thin wood between
the lower set of teeth aud the gums to
keep the teeth from ipjurlng them. II
was about three months after the first
appearance of the rigidity Of the bones
before the body was completely affected
Her health was completely undermined.
and for the last FIVE years she has baen
failing gradually from day to day. The
effect can be realized when from strong
healthful woman weighing 10S pounds
she faded away to almost mere skeleton
weighing only thirty pounds when shs
.died.
Her joints not only had hardened bu
the cords of the body contracted and drew
them into all manner Of shapes. Th'
hip Joint on the right side was complete
ly out of the socket and protrudet
frightfally. The left limb was drawn al
out of shape, as were the hands and head
She subsisted on food prepared for her
She fed herself, tooth in the lower Sc
being removed to admit the nourishment
Her right hand was motionless, but he
left she was able to guide little. Sh
was thus enabled to write some. Sh
read easily and talked readily to the tim
of her death.
| For the past three years Mrs. Bulloc
resided with her father in this city. Sh
was patient and was never known t
complain. The only similar case, an
then it is not in such marked degree
this, is that of Jonathan Bass, the ossi6e
man of Lewiston, this county. Bass
perfectly rigid, but has not the contra
ton of his joints. Mr.. Bullock's diseas
is called chalky rheumatism, and man
other names pertaining to diseases of th
hone.

| medical agent has yet been discovered
which can stay the disease. There are
some which assist recovery when the diet
is properly restricted, but they are
comparatively valueless unless that is
done. While IN some diseases the
treatment demands modification in
diet and diminution in quantity, there
are many in which ajudicious increase
is necessary. In ipfammatory conditions
of all kinds in which the starvation
treatment was formerly employed, the
general principle now recognized is to
encourage and maintain a healthy con-
dition of the body by nourishment. If
insufficient food is given, the blood soon
becomes unfit in its vital and physical
properties for the healing process OF
nature.
So. since all diseases tend to weaken
and wear out the system, to feed the
patient is one of the first Importance.
While they exist, what is needed is to
"restore the life that is being drained,
build up the tissues that are being
wasted" As sign of medical progress,
physicians largely substitute food for
medicine in the treatment of disease, and
without doubt upon the valuable thera'
peutic effects of food they will in the
future more than ever depend. As has
been said twenty-five years ago old
fashioned drugs were counted by thous'
ands, our elegant pharmaceutical
products by tens, dieteic preparations by
units. If the change goes on in the next
J. two decades as rapidly IS it has in the
/ last two, the coming century practice VII

ascends from one hill to another Of fame,
of honor, Of usefulness, or of wealth, his
ambition rises and his horizon broadens.
He has the foundation of health, of
