Food, when it sours on the stomache,
becomes innutritive and unwholesome.
It poisons the blood, and both mind
and body suffer in consequence. What
is needed to restore perfect digestion is
dose or two of Ayers Pills. They
never fail to relieve.

1t is great mistake to suppose that
simple tonic gives strength; it only
stimulates the stomach to renewed ac-
ton. To impart real strength, the blood
must be purified and enriched, and this
can only be done by such a standard

To go through life with high pur-
pose brings out the best OF youth and
manhood. Money, fame, position,
influence may come. But the noble
impulse to turn them all to others
good comes with them, and every
year marks the practical difference
between one whose only thought in
life is of being successful, and one who
is thinking of being successful, in
that station of life to which God has
called him. The one, as matter of
habit, looks over everybody with
whom he comes in contact, wonder
ing how far he can use him for his
own purposes. The other is trying as
he can to see how he can use himself
for others and for mankind. The re-
cord that the first named class makes
is that of self-seekers. The record
that the others make is that of a noble
manhood Bishop Nichols.

George and Henry Grafton, to fill

WHAT THE CUNEIFORM INSCRIP-
TONS ARE REVEALING.

The task of deciphering totally un-
known characters appeared indeed to
be hopeless one, and yet it was sue
cessfuIly accomplished. At the be-
ginning Of this century, Georg Fried
rich Gro tefend of Hanover Ger
many discovered the key that was
destined to unlock the mysteries of
cuneiform writing. Still the obstacles
were great that beset at every step
the plucky band of pioneers who
struck out in the path opened by
Grotefend. From laboriously spell
ing out each word, like a child learn
ing the alphabet, the decipherment
gradually advanced, until to- day
scholars read an ordinary cuneiform
inscription with almost the same ease
as a page of Hebre in the Old Testa-
ment. In some respects the decipher-
ment of the cuneiform Inscriptions
was attended with even greater diff
culties than the reading of the Egyp-
tan hieroglyphics, but the two
achievements are to be reckoned

the human mind.
AS a result Of the decipherment Of
the material stored up in European
museums though far from exhaust
ed,-the general course of events and
the internal development of Babylon
la and Assyria have become clear. We
have quite complete histories of
number of Assyrian kings who up to a
short time ago were known only by
name. The lists of the occupants of
Babylonian and Assyrian thrones are
now virtually complete, onward from
the fifteenth century before our era.
We know now far more of Sennach-
crib and Esarhaddon than we do of
their contemporaries, Hezekiah and
Manasseh of Judea; of earlier times
we have at least as copious records as
of the early days Of Greece and Rome;
and if the hopes of the present are
fulfilled, in another fifty years our
kno Wedge of Assyria and Babylonia
bids fair to rival in completeness what
we know Of the middle ages.-Ceatury.
