Sarsaparilla

"I cannot forbear to express my joy at
the relief I have obtained from the use
of AYERS Sarsaparilla. Twas afflicted
with kidney troubles for about six
months, suffering greatly with pains in
the small of my back. In addition to
this, my body was covered with pimply
eruptions. The remedies prescribed
failed to help me. I then began to take
AYERS Sarsaparilla, and, in short
time, the pains ceased and the pimples
disappeared. advise every young man
or woman, in case of sickness result
ing from impure blood, no matter how
long standing the case may be, to take
AYERS Sarsaparilla. "-H. L. Jarmann,

Cures Others

Will cure You, is a true statement of the
action of AYERS Sarsaparifla, 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 as
Ayers" Take Ayers Sarsaparilla and
Ayers only, if you need blood-purifer
and would be benefited permanently.
This medicine, for nearly fifty years,
has enjoyed a reputation, and made q
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.

A Moman,s wit.

The other day, says a correspondent
from Alsace, while l was on my way
from NJ. to T., found myself in COM
pany with four gentlemen, each of whom
was smoking. The train stopped at an
intermediate station, and a lady was on
the point of entering it. Being nearest
the carriage door, and observing that she
carried basket, | FASTENED to help her
in with it. Take care" said the lady,
II have six pounds of dynamite in that
basket, which am taking to my hus-
band in stone quarry" The train then
sped on. Quick as lightning the gentle
men exchanged chances and threw their
cigars out of the window. All looked
horror stricken as they glanced first at
the frau and then at the basket.
My thoughts conjured up visions Of
the destruction of the Cafe Very in Par
is. My nominations were suddenly dis
turbed by a shout of Station o." yelled
ont by porter The frau rose slowly
from her seat and stepped out upon the
platform. A sigh of relief came from us
all. Thank heaven" said one. trem-
bled as / handed out the basket, with its
dangerous contents. "Thanksw said the
woman. Thanks! You need not look
so scared, There are only some dainty
morsels of food inside for my husband,
but your smoke was so vile"

and walled, "Oh, dear, kind God, makeme
good, and make me patient, and clever,
and wise-clever and wise" She by
there quite still, with her head @l the
marble, and | saw a tear fall from the
eyes of the lovely goddess and glisten in
the girls dull hair like moonstone.
The little gray student lifted up her head
pitifully and looked up into the sweet,
grave, but (alas! for herr sightless eyes.
IL am not beautiful like YOU" she
moaned pathetically, "but Twill be pa
tient and good"
One morning | heard soft laugh be-
hind me, and then the Boys voice. He
passed me with tall. fair girl. They
passed in front of a bust of Socrates.
80 You don't think much of him." she
said reproachfully.
NO. Why should T." said the Boy.
But he is philosopher and a great
man." she urged.
The Boy looked straight into her eyes,
But he didn't know you, sweetheart"
he said, putting strong arm round her
Don't you know by this time that for
me all art, all knowledge, all philosophy
is bound up in single word-you-who
are love and philosophy and all art and
beauty incarnate;"
There was a tremulous silence for few
minutes. Only Venus and l heard the
deep, quick breaths coming from the hud-
| died little figure concealed behind a pill
lar. The Boy and the fair girl passed
out, she leaning on his arm and looking
half roguishly, half tenderly up to him.
1t was then that / looked around for
the little gray student. She seemed
stunned. After a minute she pushed
back her easel, rose to her feet and came
forward, cropping with her hands in a
blind, bewiliered fashion, then fell prone
at the foot Of the Venus. And the sun
shine hickered lovingly down ON the
shabby, gray hnsy and the rich mosaics
on the floor
Some one came in few hours later
and carried her away gently. She has
never returned.
No, don't blame the boy. 1t wasn't
anybody's fault in particular, He was
kind to her because he couldn't help it
he was as sympathetic as the tenderest
woman, and much too good and simple
souled toplay with her feelings, 1t was
just one of those cases where nobody
knew"

Ms'iouna, Of the deepest source OF tears,
The charm is thine; cen in thy mirth doth
dwell
Some inspiration from that sOmber well,
Where only in reflection JOY appears.
Thine eyes are like two lustrous midnight
spheres,
And In them all the storms Of passion swell,
Until, obedient to some sudden spell,
Loves star CLEANS softly and all heaven clears.
Actress, enchantress or whate'er thou art,
BY what strange power dost thou upon the
stage
The one soul seem where real emotions rage,
And we but mines who coldly play part?
Only by thee such miracles are done,
Rare Duse, thou whose heart and art are one.

"H.igh" Game,

DR.. Wynter Blyth, the medical officer
of health for Marylebone, is the sworn
enemy of high game, on the perfectly
consistent ground that no valid distinc-
ton can be drawn between decomposi-
ton in the rabbit and the same process
in the hare. If one be injurious, he OBJ
served, so must be the other, and though
he does not venture to suggest the prose-
cution Of vendors of game under the SAN
itary laws, he does not hesitate to de-
scribe this culinary eceentricity as a
filthy and disgusting habit" His argu-
ments, however, are double edged. Adj
hitting that decomposing rabbit is fully
as injurious as highly favored pheasant,
we are at liberty to argue that, as the
consumption of high game is seldom fol.
lowed by toxic symptoms, the prOhibi-
ton i'll respect of decomposing meat gen.
orally is unnecessary.
Common experience seems to show
that the products of ordinary decompo-
sition, at any rate in its earlier stage,
are destroyed or rendered inert by cook
ing; otherwise the mortality among the
disciples of Lucullus IN the upper classes
would be phenomenal. The danger lies
presumably i'll the fact that decompos-
ing animal tissues afford a suitable me-
dunn for the autocultivation of bac-
terra other than those of decomposition,
the toxic products whereof may resist
the influence Of a high temperature. We
are loath to believe i'll of practice
which, if asthetically Objectionable, is
hallowed by centuries Of apparent i'm
punity.-London Medical Press.

RAILROADS IN THE TROPICS.

1t Is Hard to IIeop tho Growing Foliage
from DocomlnS IN Obstruction.
Apropos Of the projected Pan-Amer-
lean railway, it is to be noted that not
only is the first cost of railway con-
Gtruction in tropical countries very
heavy, but tho annual maintenance of
way is expensive to n degree which
cannot be appreciated by those who
have no experience in this connection.
The Antioquia railrond in Colombia,
says Charles p. Ycntman in the Engi-
neering Magazine, cost in single
year, for repairs of track and bridges,
S2,2G0 per mile. The Cauca railroad,
in the came year, cost S3,s37 per mile.
These two roads nre in Colombia and
arc sometimes mentioned either as
future feeders of the Pnn-American
railroad, or parts of it's main line. On
the Anticquia road. if the undcr~ro,vth
were cut ut the beginning Of the rainy
season, less than two months rain was
sufficient to form IN arch of green trees
thirty feet high leaning over the track
80 as to shade it completely.
The constant change from dryness in
the day to soaking moisture ut night,
even in the dry season, would soon
ruin The best of timber, but nature fur
niGhcs q still quicker means of getting
rid of it, in the shape of an nnt or
wood-louce, which is careful not to mar
tho outside of his domicilc, but will
patiently honeycomb the inside, until
what looks like solid 12x12 stick is
but ehcll from 1S to n inch thick,
filled with dust and ants. The native
timber suffered go much from the in
roads of those pests that, upon hear
ing that yellow pine was used in Pan
nma to avoid them, o trial Of it was
made on the Antioquia road. Georgia
pine had to be shipped by way of New
York, ut cost of nearly 500 per 1000
feet, board measure, when put in place.

Pillar OF Beauty.
"Was there ever woman mason?"
eyes. one. and only one. It was
found that she couldn't keep n secret.
And SO it has been ever since that a
woman has nothing to tic TO- to mako
her eligible TO masonry"
This was the reply of Robert Walton,
of Rugby, Tenn, who is member
of Alhamb-a Temple in Chattanooga,
says the Cincinnati Star.
'"This woman, then, was a member
of the first lodgc?"
"She was. She was the grand junior
warden and pillar of beauty. With the
worshipful master she resided in q
beautiful garden, that has come down
III history as the most beautiful SPOT
III which human beings ever lived and
loved. With the worshipful master
she was warmly interested in building
up an ideal lodge of FREQ Masonry.
But in an evil hour one appeared ut
the outer wicket. He was fallen ma
son. One who had fallen into tho
uttermost depth, and was forever dis
graced. But he was most cunning of
speech, and he prevailed upon the
beautiful grand junior warden and
pillar Of beauty to let him in. She did
SO. The world knows the rest of the
story. The first woman had broken
her VOW, and let in one who of all
creatures was the last to expect recog-
milton and favors because of his fallen
estate. And so the first lodge was cor
rupted because of a woman, and woman
has never since been received as
member in masonry. The first lodge
was thus broken up, and the worship
full master and the fair grand junior
warden and pillar of beauty were ex-
pclled from their beautiful paradise.
But though woman has never been ad-
mitted since, she has redeemed herself
Us helpmcet to rnasons of all times
and degrees, and has come to be recog-
niZed Us his peer in all the virtues and
activities of life, md men worship ut
her Ghrinc of purity and beauty. God
bless woman, and, though we cannot
have her in our lodges, what would we
do without her?"

WOuntlins Deer.

AS chicken, duck and geese hunting is
about over for the season, and the nim-
rods arc preparing to tear their clothes
off brush hunting for deer, few notes
from robservient hunters may not come
amiss at this time. In this section, two
out of every three deer killed by hunters
are never found. In buckshot hunting
with shot gun the percentage is even
doubled. Let any one who doubt this
take stroll along deer range, and see
the decaved carcasses laying around in the
brush clumps, after the hunting season is
over. If hunters would follow up more
carefully the trail of the stricken ueer,
even though no blood is first noticed near
where the animal was shot, many of them
will be found but few yards away
Deer can be fatally wounded, yet leave no
blood along its trail.
