Success in life depends upon the liver"
Is the way Chas. Lamb, the poet and punster,
put il. Medical science has proven, that
nine-tenths of the ailments OF living have
their origin in the liver, and in constipation
caused by its arrangements. Keep the liver
lively and all will be well. Modern science
points out Cascarets as the only perfect,
gentle, positive liver regulator fit to be used
in the delicate human organism. All drug
gists sell Cascarets l0c 25c, SOC and we rec
ommend them most heartily.

ELECTRICAL FLASHES.

Among recent patents IS one for
self-restoring annunciator, which, aft
er displaying the signal for a short
tire, automatically restores itself with
out the aid of an attachment.
There is a bill in the United States
senate providing that all overhead cleo
trio wires in the District of Columbia,
within fire limits, be removed within
one year from the passage of the act.
1t is said the Third Avenue Railroad
company of New York intends to adopt
electric traction on all it's existing lines
and on others to be built. The conduit
trolley system will be used. The i'm
provements contemplated will cost sew
eral millions of dollars.
Among the latest electrical patents
granted is one for a polarized signal
bell, which permits the calling currents
of other bells to pass through without
own predetermined signals, which are
of varying current strength.
According to the Electrical Review,
the Gil lamps used to illuminate a part
of the Fourth avenue tunnel in New
York city have been supplanted with
incandescent electric lights. Groups of
lights containing five globes are placed
at intervals of every so feet, while at
the Thirty y-eighth and Fortieth street
stairways red lamps indicate the exits.
A 10S-mile electric transmission plant
is reported to be under consideration in
southern California. The undertaking
involves the erection of dam across
the Kern river in Kern county, Cal,
and the construction of line TO convey
the high tension current to Los Angeles.
The Kern river drains an area of some
2,345 square miles. and total of about
$4,000 horsepower can be obtained. A
pressure of 10000 volts is proposed for
transmission. While this is exceptions
ally high. the dry atmosphere and nfre-
quent rainfalls warrant its adoption
! The dam will form storage reservoir
with volume of about 1871 100000
gallons. or the equivalent of $4,000
aere-feet. Should the project be car
ried out. it would be by far the longest
electric power transmission line in the
world.

When a father writes that yours is the

the medicine SO praised, cured loved
daughter Of disease and restored to her
the eyesight nearly lost. The best med
icine In the world Tor you is the mediciue
that cures you. There can't be anything
better. No medicine can do more than
cure. That Is why John S. Goode, of
orrick, MO-, writes in these strong terms;
"Dr. Ayers sarsapariila Is the best med
ieine In the world. My daughter had a
relapse after the measles, due TO taking
cold. She was nearly blind,and was obliged
to remain in a dark room all the time.
The doctors could give her no relief; one
OF them directed me to give her, Ayers
sarsaPaIilia. Two bottles cured her COM

a common experience to have DR.. Ayers
Sarsaparilla prescribed by physician.
II is a common experience TO see " COM
plete cure" follow the use OF a few bottles
OF this great blood purifying medicine.
Because, il is specific for all forms OF
blood disease. If disease has its origin
in bad or impure blood, DR.. Ayers Sars-
apariia. acting directly on the blood. re-
moving its impurities and giving to IL
yitalizing energy, will promptly eradicate
the disease,
The great feature of DR.. Ayers Sarsapa-
rilla is the radical cures that result from
its use. Many medicines only suppress
disease they push the pimples down
under the skin. they paint the complexion
with subtle arsenical compounds, but the
disease RACES in the veins like pent.up
FIRE, and some day breaks out In vol
canic eruption that eats up the body.
Ayers sarsaparilla goes to the root. II
makes the fountain clear and the waters
are clean. 1t makes the rod good ard
the fruit Is good. II gives, Nature the
elements she needs to build up the brok e "a
