The Harsh, drastic purgatives, once
deemed SO indispensable, have given
place to milder and more skilfun prepar-
ed laxatives; hence the great and growing
demand for Ayers Pills. Physicians
everywhere recommend them for costive-
ness, Indigestion, and liver complaints.

The legislature should take some steps

THE legislature should take some steps
this year to secure roads of legal width.
Road work will be of comparatively little
value while our country roads are prac-
tically lanes. The legislator who devises
some plan whereby the money expended
on roads will be of lasting benefit will
deserve well OF the people. OF course
they would feel like slaughtering him for
his pains, but he would be a public bene-
factor nevertheless.

1t is quite possible to come suddenly
upon Easter, or for Whitsuntide to steal
down upon ne unawares, but such special
seasons as Christmas and New Years
don't admit of any triting. No sensible
person delays until the last moment the
arrangements of his or her gift-programe.
And So as most Wisconslnltes are sem
sible, were daily receiving immense qnan-
titles OF orders. Gifts are pleasurable
things either to donate or to receive, any
time but they're doubly acceptable on
Christmas or New Years Days. They as
sure us OF fortitying aid of love and
friendship. And as gifts are symbols
of those feelings of esteem and tenderness
and ELECTION which do most honor to
human nature, the custom of bestowing
them must forever remain beautiful one;
and that the Day of the Nativity, or the
first day OF a new year should be selected
for the bestowal of such offerings, adds
Gas we've said very materially to the
warmth of their welcome.
Before we make Another announcement
in this paper Christmas will have passed,
and we shall have entered upon 1889.
Our hearty wish to all readers of these
lines is that it may be their lot to have
"a Merry Christmas and a Happy New
Year,"
Those who haven't yet received our
"HOLIDAY MESSENGER" which gives
prices of many seasonable goods, should
send for 1T at once.

looked upon them as betrothed, and
finally the son frankly told his moth
er that he had made up his mind to
get married.
The news came like thtmderclap
out of a clear sky, and the storm that
followed shook up the old aristocrat
to such degree that she threatened
to disinherit him. Nothing remain
ed but to return home as quickly as
possible and send the girl back to
her milk pans and cows. This was
done, but shortly after reaching New
York, the young man, worried by
the opposition Of his mother, was
taken i'll. The illness became so Sc
rious that his affianced determined to
hasten to his side. She called at the
house, but was refused admission.
Again and again she applied to see
her beloved with the same result,
until one day, meeting the mother by
accident, she confessed that she was
the affianced wife of her son and de-
manded to see him as a right. The
latter was now at the point of death,
paralyzed and unconscious, and the
proud aristocrat's heart relented.
Possibly it was with the hope that
the woman he loved best might be
the means of restoring him to health.
But it was too late. No sign of rec
ognition occurred, and on the follow
ing day he died.
In her grief the mother prayed
forgiveness for the wrong she had
done, and folded the country girl
to her bosom as an adopted daughter.
AS such she was received into the
family, the portion belonging to the
dead heir was settled upon her, and
in time she became central figure
in New York's best society.
Two or three years afterward she
became the wife of foreign diplo-
matist, and now vibrates between
the two continents, entertains and is
regally entertained, and occupies a
sphere to which she would, in any
event, be entitled by virtue of her
true womanhood.
