Sick Headache

ISa complaint from which many suffer
and few are entirely free. It's cause
Is Indigestion and a sluggish liver, the
cure for which Is readily found in the
use Of Ayers pills.
81 have found that for sick headache,
caused by a disordered condition Of the
stomach, Ayers Pills are the most re-
liable remedy. Samuel q. Bradburni
WOrthington, Mass.
"After the use of Ayers Pills for
many years, in my practice ana family,
j am justified in saying that they are an
excellent cathartic and liver medicine
sustaining all the claims made for them.

TOM BENTnN,S VIEW


Nn0W freceueuNs
IV.M u. 40 phVaaslDhia North lmeric1n.
Congress has wasted a good deal Of
valuable time in useless eulogies Of
members this year They are vain and
empty forms of showing sorrow. Iwent
down to the House one afternoon, and
there was Speaker pro teu. in the
chair reading a newspaper, while two
men were present in the chamber One
was standing up reading a speech, while
the other was busily engaged in writing
and had a roll Of manuscript on his desk,
Soon the first man finished his essay
and left The other then arose and
spoke. The House consisted then Of
the one man, who was talking TO a lot
Of House employees and the man In the
chair, who seemed to be bored to death.
As a Democrat in the gallery said,
Even Reed couldn't have counted a
quorum present. " 10 has been sug
rested that Il would be a good idea to
put mp a tablet bearing the last words
of Tom Benton on this subject Benton
the day before his death sent to a fellow
Congressman this letter, which appears
in the records Of Congress under the
date Of April 8, 1858;
To my old friends address myself to say
that I'm the event OF my death here ! desire
that there shall not be any notice Of 10 In
Congress. There is no rule OF either House
that will authorize the announcement OF
my death, and III there were such a rule
should not wish it to be applied IN my case,
az being contrary to my feelings and CON
viciions long entertained, as shown I'm q
note to q speech Of Mr.. Randolph on the
occasion Of the death Of Mr.. David Walker,
published in the "Abridgment Of Debates, -
volume vi, 500. The request of Mr. Walker
there recorded and the remarks Of Mr.. Ran
dolph express entirely my sentiments and
convictions. should, therefore, any Of my
kind friends in either House make It neces-
sary to do so, | trust you TO make known
my express wish and desire that the event
remain unnoticed IN Congress. Your old
Tennessee friend, THOMAS II. BENTON.
Perhaps It is hardly necessary to say
that no time was wasted by Congress In
eulogy of Tom Benton.

Why 80 Many Wax Matches Are Mah'
ufaetured In Italy.

uiaetuEed IN AIAlys
From Tobacco.
ThelItalian cigar is said to be a ma
tional institution. II IS about eight
inches long with a straw down the
centre, and its chief peculiarly lies in
the fact that while the manufacturer
appears 10 have exhausted all the fer
tile resources of his nature In making II
so that il will not light, the smoker, on
the other hand, is equally patient aud
clever IN overcoming these difficulties.
The method Is TO first extract, with a
firm, straight, strong pull, the thin
Piece of grass within the straw; a side
pull will break It. or, If the cigar Is
too tightly held, the same thing will
happen, aud you must try the other end,
OF take q fresh cigar Once getting
II out, the cigar must be held in a slant
ing position toward the flame and pa
tiently and steadily pulled at until the
end IS burned down far enough 70 let
the smoke travel Of itself up the straw
and into the mouth.
To do this effeCtually twelyer parlOr
matches is a low average, aud profanity
is regarded a term Of endeaTment
rather than a sOlecism in consequence.
his accounts tOr the enormous guam
tity Of wax matches for sale on every
street At the restaurants they consid-
eralely serve a candle with the cigars al
dessert, and at the side Of this Is fixed a
small silver wire rest, on which the
cigar is placed with tue end Ia the
flame. SO that by the time the dessert
is finished the cigar is burned far
enough down 10 smoke, and the blue
wTeaths viii be issuing from the straw
end as from a chimney. They are
called Virginia cigars what they are
made of Is a mystery even TO those who
made them, the distinctive character Of
their aroma can be sworn 10 after long
years. and they are smoked by the mill
lion in restaurants, theatre and streets,
the only thing capable of competing
with them In odOr being the equally

From the station agent
Many queer stories are told Of the
wanderings Of freight cars and the trials
of car accountants in keeping track Of
the equipment Of their road. An in.
cident given in the Marquette Mining
journal relative to the subject Is worth
reproducing

bic down a precipice and thus become
lost. but here such a thing could not
happen. The subject Of the mystori-
Gus car grew upon his mind to such an
extent that he determined TO find that
car or perish in the attempt. Accord.
ingly he went few weeks ago to a
station, at which place the car was last
heard from, and started after the truant
box car.
Coming down the line to a point but
a few miles above lshpcming, he went
in on a branch 10 a mine that IS a small
shipper, and where the track Is not
kept open in the winter. Getting a mile
or so out on the branch he suddenly
ran into No. ASS. Upon investigation
he found that farmer who lived In
the vicinity had been, and was still,
using the car as a barn, there being six
horses In the car at the time. II Is need
less to say that the track was ploughed
out the next Sunday, and the farmers

An Argument In AhNof OF AuNertthiuE

Arguing advertising the other day
with one OF the brightest Of Eastern
manufacturers / had Just commenced
10 train my sklrmish batteries upon him,
when, like Davy CrOckett's coon, "he

a contributor to the JejcelleFs' Weekly.
He had more to say In favor of adyer-
Using than had, but of course gave
him up as lost. for as a salesman recog-
nizes a nOn-buysF, when the latter
praises his goods, so ! at once surmised
that our Eastern friend was not perpaTed
Just then to give an advertisement.
But he told a good story which ought
TO 90 on record. An advertising
agent called upon the head Of an old
and prominent firm That gentleman
received him politely, but informed
him that his house had no occasion
whatever for advertising, as II was well
known and had done all the advertising
that was requisite in its earlier days.
Indeed responded the agent. 80
