Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. TO begin
with, they're the smallest, and the
easiest to take. THEY'RE tiny, sugar
coated ant-bilious granules, scarcely
larger than mustard seeds. Every
child is ready for them.
Then, after they're taken, instead of
disturbing and shocking the system,
they act III mild, easy, and natural
way. There's no chance for any reac.
ton afterward. Their help lasts. Con-
stipation, Indigestion, Bilious Attacks,
Sick or Bilious Headaches, and all
arrangements of the liver, stomach and
bowels, are promptly relieved and per
manently cared.
They're put up in glass walls, which
keep them always fresh and reliable,
unlike the ordinary pills in wooden or

And they're the cheapest pills you can
buy, for they're guaranteed to give
satisfaction, or yOur money is returned

CosNfENDABLE ENTERPRISE The
Southern Churchman of last week sent
out with its regular edition hand
some siSteen-page quarto special pre-
MUM supplement, full of illustrations
and neatly and artistically printed.
The Churehman for nearly three-score
wears has been a welcome visitor in
households all over the country. 1t is
ably edited and deserves all the popu-
larity and prosperity it enjoys. For
twenty or more years the Glrchman
and the GAZETTE were published in
the same building, and the recollections
ofthose years when both were mem
bers of one household are still green
in the hearts of all employed upon the
two papers; and now, though miles are
between US, the cordial feeling of old
fingers, and naturally causes the GA
ZErrE to rejoice with its old friend at
all the blessings it is receiving after its
years of patient work for the welfare OF
the Communion it represents and the
good of the world at large.
