camp near Chalcis, In Syria, just as be
was about to lead an army OF Arabs
against Constantinople. lie had emp
tied two baskets OF eggs and dgE.
which he swallowed alternately, and
the repast was finished With marrow
and sugar. In pilgrimage to Mecca
the same caliph had eaten with inpu.

the grapes of Tayef.

Stimulate the Blood.

Brandreth's Pills are the great
blood purifier. They are laxa-
tive and blood tonic, they act equally
on the bowels, the kidneys and the
skin, thus cleansing the system by
the natural outlet of the body. They
stimulate blood 50 as to enable ma
ture to throw off all morbid humors
and cure all troubles arising from
an impure state of the blood. One
or two taken every night will
prove an invaluable remedy.
Each pill contains one grain Of
solid extract of sarsaparilla, which,
with other valuable vegetable pro-
ducts, make it a blood purifier Of
excellent character.
Brandreth's Pills have been in
use for over a century and are sold
in every drug and medicine store,
either plain or sugar-coated.
