is the best cure for Indigestion, even

silver complaint and indigestion
made my life burden and came near
ending my existence. For more than
four years suffered untold agony, was
reduced almost to a skeleton, and hardly
had strength to drag myself about. All
kinds OF food distressed me, and only
the most delicate could be digested at
all. Within The time mentioned several
physicians treated me without giving re-
iiut. Nothing that I took seemed to do
aEy permanent good until I commenced
the uso OF Ayers Sarsaparilla, which
has produced wonderful results. Soon
after commencing 10 take the Sarsapa-
rila | could see an Improvement in my
condition. My appetite began to return
end with it came the ability to digest
ri the food taken, my strength inn

duties. Tie medicine has given me q

The House Republicans Succeed in Bring
ing it Up for Passage
The previous question was ordered in
the house Monday on the international
copyright bill, 103 toss. This indicates
the passage of the measure by the
house. 1t is new bill, reported from
the committee on patents last session by
Mr.. Simonds, and will have to go to the
senate, where its friends are assured of
its final passage, The copyright men
here are feeling very much elated over
their success.
The proposition of the bill is to per-
NIT foreigners to take American copy
right ON the same basis as American
citizens in three cases First, when the
nation of the foreigner permits copy
right 10 American citizens on substan-
TALLY the same basis rs its own citizens;
second, when the nation of the foreigner
gives to American citizens copyright
privileges similar to those provided for
in this bill; third, when the nation of
the foreigner is a party to an interna-
tional agreement providing for reciproei-
ty in copyright, by the terms of such
agreement the United States can be
come a party thereto at its pleasure. A
subsidiary but important proposition of
the bill is that al books copyrighted
under the proposed act shall he printed
from type set within the United States,
or from plates made therefrom.
