Cures Others

Will cure You, is true statement OF tho
action OF AYERS Sarsaparilla, when
taken for diseases originating in impure
blood; but, while this assertion is true OF
AYERS Sarsaparilla, as thousands can
attest, it cannot be truthfully applied to
other preparations, which unprincipled
dealers will recommend, and try to inn
pose upon YOU as "just as good al
Ayers" Take Ayers Sarsaparilla and
Ayers only, if you need a blood-purifier
and would be benefited permanently.
This medicine, for nearly fifty years,
has enjoyed a reputation, and made
record for cures, that has never been
equaled by other preparations. AYERS
Sarsaparilla eradicates the faint of he
reditary scrofula and other blood dis.
eases from the system, and it has, deser-
vedly, the confidence OF the people.

MONEY IN CIRCULATION.

Acting Secretary OF the treasury Nettieton
has written letter 10 Representative Turner,
of Georgia, who asked tho Department for An
explanation Of certain discrepancies mentioned
by Senator Kyle. of South Dakota, in a recent
speech, as existing between reports made by
Secretary Window Is to the volume OF money
in circulation. and similar reports made By
Secretary Foster
Gen. Neitloton in his report says that Sena-
tor Kyle enormously contFasted Secretary
Windows amounts for Oct. Of each year from
1879 to 1890 with Secretary Fosters amounts
for July OF the same years. which difference of
the months in the dates, he says accounts for
tho alleged discrepancies. Senator Kyle was
aiso wrong, the Acting Secretary says. in COM
pairing March ]. 1875. with July ], 1873; but in
this instance the report OF Secretary Window
included the gold coin then in the United States
less amount in the Treasury. while the report
of Secretary Foster included the gold. except
S25, 100000 in circulation on the Pacific Coast.
Mr.. Nettleton adds that Senator Kyle was in
error in saying that the 100 notes were legal
tender for their face value. those notes having
been negotiated simply ss loan and being in
no sense legal tender.

One of the novel features proposed for the

the Republic was decided upon at meeting of
the Committee on Naval Reunions last week.
The Chairman of the Committee, Capt w. 81.
Michael, Clerk of Printing Records of the United
States Senate, who has record as a soldier in
the 11th Iowa. and as an officer of the Mis-
sissippi River Flotlla, has conceived the idea Of

White Lot. where all the other Reunions will
be held, and will be 240 feet long, and so placed
on tho south side of the White Lot elipse that
the bow of the vessel will point north, toward
the White House. It will, Of course, be built
mainly of wood, will have four guns, and over
addresses at the Reunion will be delivered
from the poop deck, while tho berth deck will
be occupied with hammocks for the accommo-
dation of the guards. The headquarters of the
