"For two years I suffered from Sc
we're pain In my right side, and had
other troubles caused by torpid liver
and dyspepsia. After giving several
medicines q fair trial without cure, l
began TO take Ayers Sarsaparilla. l
was greatly benefited by tho first bottle,
and after taking Hvo bottles | was com
pletely cured. - John w. Benson, 70
Lawrence ST., Lowell, Mass.
Last May large carbuncle broke out
on my arm. The usual rein&liss had no
effect aud was confined to my bed for
eight weeks. A friend induced me to try
Ayers Sarsaparilla. Less than three
bottles healed the sore. In all my expe-

Wonderful Results.
Another marked effect OF the use OF this
medicine was the strengthening OF my
sight" = Mrs. Carrie Adams, Holly
Springs, Texas.
"I had dry scaly humor for years,
and suffered terribly; and. as my broth
or and sister were similarly afflicted, l
presume the malady Is hereditary. Last
winter, DIR. Tyron, (of Fernandina,
Fla,,) recommended me TO take Ayers
Sarsaparilla, and continue II for year.
For FIVE months took IL daily. l have
not had blemish upon my body for the
last three months" 1T. Il. Wiley, li8
Chambers st., New York City.
"Last fall and winter was troubled
with a dull heavy pain in my side. I
did not notice 1t much at first, but IL
gradually grew worse until It became
almost unbearable. During the latter
mart Of this time, disorders Of the stom-
ach and liver increased my troubles. l
began taking Ayers Sarsaparilla, and.
after faithfully continuing the use OF
this medicine for some months, the pain
disappeared and l was completely
cured" = Mrs. Augusta A. Furbush,

using professional terms, as do, and
ordering them ''blind in both eyes"

that he wants them fried on either

the formula, only using the word

comes back and brings back my order.
She asks Mr.. Riley again how he wants

81 never saw such clear water in my
life as there is in the harbor Of Port au
Prince" said naval officer to Wash
ington Star reporter. "When the sea
is calm one can see the bottom, four
teen fathoms down. The water that
comes into the harbor is all clear, as it
flows down over coral beds While
going up the harbor we used to fill
beer-bottle with water to make it
heavy, and throw it straight ahead Of
the, ship. When we passed the spot
where it struck we could still see it go-
ing down, away below us. The only
fish I'M the harbor is the gar fish, long
slim fellow like the pike, with a sharp,
hard beak that won't take hook.
They used to hang around the ship in
schools. The only way to get them is
TO shoot them with rife. As they lay
on the surface of the water by the
ships side they offer very fairmark. I
There was one immense tiger shark
that used to come nosing around, and
we thought that we'd dose him up. So
we loaded great piece of pork with
bottle Of gunpowder, and fastened an
electric fuse to it, connecting 1t with
the battery on the ship. The bait was
then hung over the stern, and his maj
esty came Waiting up to it. As soon
as he reached it, however, instead of
turning half over and causing it to dis
appear, as was his usual custom, he
began to sniff at it. Then he shot away
and acted shy, returning now and then
to smell of the pork. But he would not
bite it. Finally some one suggested
experimenting with the pork without
the powder bottle, and the shark took it
without moments hesitation. We
afterward exploded the bottle in piece
Of pork, and it threw the meat in every
direction.
I'VE have often had great deal OF
amusement out of the Jackies whenever
they caught shark. When we enter
ed harbor where sharks were plenty
there would always be hook hanging
over the stern, and it was not long be-
fore great big fellow was hauled up
to the rail. Then the old Jackies, who
had been there before, all crowded
close around the carcass with their
knives, ready to cut it up, thus keep
ing the greenhorns back out Of sight
They would have their blouses stuffed
with all sorts of things; and as soon as
the body was ripped open they hauled
the stuff out of their clothes, and, after
dipping it in the sharks blood, passed
it up to the greenies. You can imagine
their establishment when they saw a
bloody pair of shoes, or piece OF
cloth, or stained cap-ribbon bearing
the name of some other ship, come up
apparently from the body of the shark,
or course they would think at first tina
some poor fellow had fallen overheard
and had been gobbled up by the fish,
/ All the time the old Jackies would bt

smile.n

FARM And HOME.


There Is no one subject in agriculture
Which demands at the present day more
care continued and widely extended.
than the practice Of manuring. A soil
cannot be cultivated Understandings
until 1t has been rightly subjected 70
such examination as will tell us. as
nearly as any examination can tell e.
what Is necessary TO render It fertile.
A fertile soil is one that is fully SUM-
piled with the three essential and prin-
cipal elements that go 10 make up the
growth OF plants. or the less impor-
tant elements they are supplied in suffi-
Client quantity, unless il Is a remarka-
bly, thin or sandy soil, so that there is
little or no need OF anxiety regarding
anything but the three principals
nitrogen, phosphoric acid and potash.
Because soil will not produce salts
factory crops is no certain evidence
that 1t is infertile any further than is
caused by the absence OF one Of the
necessary and principal ingredients Of
plants. There may be an abundance
OF nitrogen and potash, and an entire
absence Of phosphoric acid; the two
first named arc fertilizing elements, but
third and important one is lacking; or
The combination may be changed SO
that there is an abundance OF nitrogen
and phosphoric acid, with no potash; or,
again, there may be an ample supply
OF phosphoric acid and potash with no
nitrogen. In either case one might ex-
peci TO grow a satisfactory crop about
the same that one might expect to build
a satisfactory brick house from any two
OF the three things-brick, sand and
lime-of which II Is constructed.
Now we come TO the point OF the ex-
animation OF the soil for the purpose
OF determining what, II anything, is
lacking 10 insure satisfactory crop.
At first view this may appear TO be a
difficult matter, but little considera-
ton Of the case viii dispel all doubts
In that direction. Make a little exper.
nent station Of your field By devoting
an acre divided into one-sixteenth
plats, and plant one plat with no kind
OF fertilizer; on the next use nitrogen
In some form; then upon another use
phosphoric acid; upon still another
potash; and then use the different ele.
mcnts in different combinations. Note
the growth and products Of each differ
cut plat. and a knowledge win be gain
cd by the most reliable means that can
be devised Of the actual wants OF the
soil There Is no better way, and the
outlay for material is fully repaid in
the valuable knowledge acquired
