Sick Headache

is complaint from which many suffer
and few are entirely free. Its cause
is Indigestion and sluggish liver, the
cure for which is readily found in the
use of Ayers Pills. ~
"I have found that for sick headache,
Caused by disordered condition of the
stomach, Ayers Pills are the most re-
liable remedy."-Samuel G. Bradburn,
Worthington, Mass.
"After the use of Ayers Pills for
many years, in my practice and family,
1 am justified in saying that they are an
excellent cathartic and liver medicine
sustaining all the claims made for them.'
w. A. Westfall, M. D., V. P. Austin
& N. W. Railway Co., Burnet, Texas.
"Ayer's Pills are the best medicine
known to me for regulating the bowels,
and for all diseases caused by a dis
ordered stomach and liver. l suffered
for over three years from headache, in
digestion, and constipation. l had no
appetite and was weak and nervous
most of the time. By using three boxes
of Ayers Pills, and at the same time
dieting myself, 1 was completely cured"

How to Make Lasting Roads.

am more encouraged to think shall live
to see better roads than ever before. There
is much useful advice in all the papers. Some
road districts have little fruitful rivalry
with each other, but the thing that promises
to do most to revolutionize roadmaking is
the stone crusher. In the adjoining town of
Sweden, Monroe county, they have had
stone crusher about three years and have now
finished as much as fifteen miles of road
The roads where the crushed stone is laid
were formerly almost impossible IN fall and
spring now team can haul as much in-the
worst time in spring as in summer, and are
so hard that q loaded wagon will crush small
stones, and where the stone track is worn
smooth and washed off by hard shower it
looks like mosaic-work. The crusher in
Sw eden in three years has cost but a trifle
for repair. In the town beyond Sweden they
bought crusher that would crush larger
stones, but it is laid up for repairs too often
and won't do so much work as the kind they
use in Sweden by long odds. The town gets
all the stone it wants free, and money is rails
ed by tax to hire men and teams to haul the
stone to the machine, and they are crushed
and spouted on to wagons furnished by the
road districts. In Sweden they say limestone

. Uneasy.

"Uneasy lies the head that wears crown"
One wonders that the czar of Russia does
not follow the example of Charles Y. and free
himself from life of continual apprehension.
Is the life worth living which must be sus-
tanned by such precautions as those narrated
below? Yes, if thereby one serves his gener-
alton. London Truth says
1t was given out that he would be the
guest of the German emperor at the Marble
palace, Potsdam, and when all kinds of ex-
pensive preparations had been made there, he
decided he would be safer in Berlin, and q
large sum was expended in arranging for
his reception at the Schoss
Finally. only one day before the emperor
arrived, Count Schouvalof received a tele-
gram from Copenhagen to intimate that his
majesty would alight at the Russian embassy
and the message was quickly followed by the
arrival of the imperial workmen, seven in
number, who now go in advance of the en-
peror whenever and wherever he travels.
There are two carpenters, two masons, two
Iocksmiths and a foreman. They most care
fully examine the chimneys. locks, flooring
walls and furniture of the house which the
emperor is to occupy, and his own apart
ments are subjected to most rigorous search.
The chimneys are objects of special atten-
ton, and every f1ue which leads to room
which the emperor is likely to enter is
thoroughly barred both top and bottom, and
as if these precautions were not sufficient,
police agents from St. Petersburg patrol the
roof both day and night. .l..

How Postage Stamps are Made.

The design of the stamps is engraved on
steel, and, in printing, plates are used on
which 200 stamps have been engraved. Two
men are kept busy covering these with colo
red inks and passing them to man and a
girl who print them, with large rolling hand
presses. Three of these little squads are en-
ployed all the time. After the sheets of pa
per, containing 200 printed stamps, have
dried enough, they are sent into another room
and gummed. The gum used for this pur-
pose is made of the powder of dried potatoes
and other vegetables, mixed with water. AT
ter having again been dried, this time on lit
tie racks famed by steam power for about an
hour, they are put between sheets of paste
board and pressed in hydraulic presses capa-
BILE of applying weight of 1000 tons.
The next thing is to cut tie sheets in two,
This is done by girl with large pair of
shears, cutting by hand being preferred to
that of machinery, which would destroy too
another squad ofworkers, who perforate the
paper between the stamps. Next they are
pressed once more, and then packed and Ia
beled and slowed away to be sent to the var
ious offices when ordered. If single stamp
is torn or in any way mutilated, the whole
sheet of 100 stamps is burned:
Not less than 1000 are said to be burned
every week from this cause. The greatest
care is taken in,counting the sheets ofstamps
to guard against pilfering by the employees;
and it is said that during the past twenty
years not single sheet has been lost in this
way. During the process of manufacturing,
the sheets are counted eleven times
