Wonderful Results,

Another marked effect of the use of this
medicine was the strengthening of my
sight. Mrs. Carrie Adams, Holly
Springs, Texas.
81 had dry scaly humor for years,
and suffered terribly and, as my BROTH
er and sister were similarly afflicted, I
presume the malady is hereditary. Last
winter, DR.. Tyron, (of Fernandina,
Fla, recommended me to take Ayers
Sarsaparilla, and continue it for year
For five months / took it daily. / have
not had blemish upon my body for the
last three months. 7. Z. Wiley, l46
Chambers St, New York City,
"Last fall and winter was troubled
with dull, heavy pain in my side. l
did not notice it much at first, but it
gradually grew worse until it became
almost unbearable. During the latter
part 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 1 was completely
cured. Mrs. Augusta A. Furbush,
Hayerhill Mass.

Mr.. THOS. LODGE, of Wheeling town
ship, who who went to Loudon county,
Va, early in May and returned recently,
reports that all the time he was over
there but two days were suitable for
outdoor work. The ground was so wet
that plowing and planting could not be
done Since his return home he has had
a letter from brother, who reports such
constant rains as to render the situation
serious. Streams were never before so
high, and Jupiter Pluyius continues
pouring water upon the earth. The
farmers have lost all hope of producing
any other crop than grass.

THE address of Hon. B. X. Bruce to
the colored conference in Mississippi is
thoughtful and clear. He views the fu-
tire of the race in the United States
with hope, while frankly acknowledge
ing its diScouraging aspects. The col
ored people, he says, are uneducated,
poor and dependent: their advancement
is impeded by prejudice, and Yet there
is cheerful proof in their progress in the
last thirty years, that by outstanding
their resources and patiently, wisely
working to the end, the time will come,
perhaps soon, when in every part Of the
Union their social and political rights
will receive just and peaceful recogni-
ton from all. Mr.. Bruce does not as
sumo that the President has any special
Southern policy, but takes it for granted
that he will insist on constitutional OBJ
legations and the impartial execution OF
the laws in every state, and, in provid
ing aids to his Administration, will moi
fail to recognize capacity and integrity
among colOred men.
