The Good Old Times.

The Good Old Times.
"Then times were good,
Merchants cared not a rush
For any other fare,
Then Johnny cake and mush.'
But now times have changed, and the
plain and simple fare of the forefathers is
done away with. Patent flour, and high
seasoned food, and strong drinks, have TAX
en- its place, and, as result, dyspepsia, i'm
pure blood, and diseases of the stomach,
liver and lungs are numerous. This great
change has led one of the most skillfull ply
sicians of the age to study out remedy for
these modern diseases, which he has named
his Golden Medical Discovery" DR..
Pierce in this remedy has found cure for
Dyspepsia, Bronchitis, Asthma, Consump-
ton, in its early stages, and oliver Com
plants"

rHs AArIoNs Library.


sonethInr About Its Thousands ami ThOa-
sands of Books OF Every Kind.
Our national library is a huge triple
room in the west front of the Capitol
building, and holds more than 600, 900
volumes in its capacious shelves.
Imagine an immense chamber, along
each side of which run large alcoves of
ironwork. Within these a~lcoves, which
are large enough TO contain two peo-
pie, are four walls of books. Above
these small chambers are iron galleries,
one rising above the other until the
roof is reached. And each one is load
ed down with thousands upon thou
sands of volumes.
Every available space is occupied by
dusty tones. yet in this seeming confu-
Hion there is admirable order. The
location of every book is kept, and a
visitor calling for a certain author is
kept waiting only a few moments.
Children under sixteen are not al
lowed in the library, yet part Of it is
ievoted solely 70 children's literature
aud fairy tales.
Many are the quaint and curious
books preserved ON these shelves. one

and the Scriptures of the Christians
