T I Thousands of persons in every trade, profession and calling: have DR. R. C. FLOWER’S Scientific Remedies. RIP VAN WINKLE. Joseph Jefferson, the great actor (whom* equal In the character of Kip Van Winkle we shall never see again), states that he visited l>r. Homer in a very low state of health, lie bad given up the stage on acoount of his health living tterly broken down. Dr. Flower entirely cured him; and he Is to day en joying the very best ol health, after having filled last season a heavy professional engagement. The two great remedies used in this celebrat* d cure were Dr. Flower's Liver and Stomach Sanative and Nerve Pills. A Railroad President’s Testimony Col. Thos. A. Scott, for years President cl* the great Penn ylvsnln K. K., said Just before his sadden death, in answer to a question “There is b**t one I>r. Flower, and It will tie a century before there Is another, and the snc medicine for Liver and "torn ach troubles, and the general system, is his Liver and Stomach Sanative. A Case Without a Parallel.

Commander Nichols— Commissioner Loring’* Accounts. Washington, Sept. 16. Lieutenant Commrnder H. E. Nichols, commanding U. S. steamer Pinta, in a dis patch to the navy department, dated Sitka, Alaska, Aug. 13, reports that since July 21. the ship had vi-ittd Howian, Wrangel, Shu kan, .Juneau and Killisnoo, making short stops at each place, and during the summer visited nearly all the principal villages in the southeastern part of Ala-ka. It was esti mated that 1500 Indians had congregated at Juncan, having come from almost every vil lage in south east Alaska. They worked in mines and cutting wood, and many of th« m had accumulated a good deal of wealth which they seemed to keep. Four of the miners, who were taken by the Pinta in May to ChiI cott. to go to the Yukon river, had returned They reported that so tar as they went they had nothing to pay. The Junac river mines (erroneously called Juna in previous reports) had not turned out as expected, though few miners are still at work. Slc practice of the Chliose in prepar ing tt»e bones of their deed fellow country men for shipment t» China, which has l* en carried on under the very nose of the city au thorities, has crested deep an I intense ex citement. The know I dge that such a mass of putre faction was lying exposed in the very heart of the cit\. shile at the same time the drain age and sewers of the city are known to be in a filthy c •ndition, has creattd a feeling of fear for the hea th of the city. After all the boxes containing the remains of the dead Chinamen were removed t the morgue, the coroner was interviewed in regard to the matter He stat d that when he arrived at the cellar in wlm h toe bodies were stored ami in which the putrefied remains, which had s ill t.* bo boiled, were lying, he set to wink t break open the boxes. There were some sixty boxes in sll. Kaeh box contained a tin case, in which, carefully wrapped in oil cloths, were a number of human bones. The smaller bones and long strips of ►kin were wrapped up in separate parcels and placed wiihm the larger ones. On the outside of each box was a label bear ing Chinese characters, giving the name of the dead person within, so that the remains c«»uld be identified by relatives in China After having opened several boxes, the cor oner concluded to si*m the whole lot and re move them to the morgue Express wagons were called for the purpose. While the cases were biing placed in the wagons, some of them rolled ofl and fell to the pav« ment. breako g open and exposing the contents. The crowd which had assembl -d up n learn ing the cause of the excitement jumped on the hones and in thnir indignation, trod them underfoot. The police quickly interposed and the loading continued without further interruption. The remains were removed to the wagon. Most of the boxes containing the remains were, on examination, found to have come from the cities in the interior of the Mate. The remains were shipped from there to San Francisco in common tea boxes. 1‘hose that came from the interior are hulled and prepared before shipment, so that no odor is perci ptihle on the route. Duly those removed from San Francisco cemeteries have flesh still on them, when hrouaht for prepa ration to the cellar. It was the intention to have shipped all those on the steamer City of Pekin, which sails Saturday next. It is ru mored that the Chinese six companies will bring an action sgiinst the coroner lor the removal ot the boxes ami remains.

The rights of labor may be hard to de fine satisfactorily, but some seem to think that they are synonymous with the riots of labor. This is a grievous error which should be corrected.—Record. A brickmaker in one of the small cities of Wisconsin pays his hands Saturday in checks on the bank. The banker tells a reporter that nine-tenths ot those checks are brought in by saloon keepers. Gen. Butler, in the America, followed the Puritan and the Genesta in Friday’s yacht race, but his time was not taken. It was just so in the presidential race last year. Thus does history repeat itself.— Ronton Traveller The Colombian authorities have made an important capture in the person of Benjamin Ruiz. This neero is a profes sional revolutionist, not intelligent enough to lead a rebellion, but just the man to execute daring deeds. He once stole the President of Panama, ran away with him in a hand-car and held the unfortunate official for a good round ransom. The supply of legal tender notes of de nominations of $6 and under is growing so scarce because of Secretary Manning’s order refusing to reissue the mutilated notes that the business interests are be ginning to bring a pressure for a change of policy. It i* a mistake for the adminis tration to attempt to deprive the people of the smaller notes, which are such a con venience to them, whether to force silver dollars into circulation, or tor any other purpose. The Sacramento River in California has become so badly clogged and tilled up with debris washed down from the mines worked in the last twelve months by the hydraulic process that passenger and freight boats can no longer reach Sacra mento City. It is proposed that the na tion shall, through Congress, pay tor the removal or the impounding of this debris. It was an appropriation of $260,000 for this pur|»ose that was condemned bv Sec retary Lincoln in thewinterof 1882-3 It was then shown that even if the miners should cease to wash the hills into the stream, it would cost $1,600,000 to do the work. One would think it would be more the duty of California to check the flow of the debris into the stream before it asks the nation to dig the stuff out at a cost ol $1,500,000. The report forwarded by a Special hand Commissioner to Gov. Ireland, of Texas, supports the grave charges recent ly made by the Galveston News concern ing the maladministration of land affairs in the State. That paper declared that foreign cattle companies were occupying 22,000.000 acres—a block about the size of Indiana—of school lands, tor the use ot which the Governor and his associates in the hand Hoard ought to have collected rent amounting to (2,000,000. In failing to do so they deliberately ignored the law, which is mandatory. It was also charged that the school tund had been robbed since 1875 of 12,500.000 acres of laud, worth (26,000,000. The State's endowment of its public school system was magnificent —ono-half of the public domain. “Fraud, forgery, corruption, and official imbecili ty.'’ says the News. As there was a minority opposed to the Niagara Reservation scheme who based their opposition mainly on the dollars and cents view of the matter, it is interesting to note some of the results. The Niagara Falls Gazette furnishes information which meets this inquiry. The International Hotel proprietors have organized a joint stock company with a capital stock of (200.000 for the purpose of improving their property and enlarging their accom modations. A new Casino with a frontage ot over 180 feet is shortly to be erected. “Business blocks are being erected and planned and many new and handsome private residences are talked off.*' Since the middle of July the number of visitors has increased many fold. Such facts as these tell their own story. As a result of passing the Reservation bill, the pros perity ol the village of Niagara Falls has been and i« to be greatly promoted. That means that there is to be a substantial ad dition Irom year to year to the taxable property of the State, and that means funds for the State Treasury. It thus ap pears that the Reservation is helping to pay for itself, in lawful money of the United States. A String: of Bright Beads. The Glittering Knick-knacks of Fashion That Catch the .Esthetic Ete. Mahdi paper—that scarlet abomination— is verv fashionable here in Paris, and four times the price it is in London. True, it has a large gold wafer stamped on the top of the note paper and on the overlapping fold of the envelope. St George and the Drag in and i other heraldic devices are chosen for the stamp, which are hardly in keeping with the name, and suit better the ‘'Dragon paper, figured all over with repetitions of this fabled j monster in pale gold or silver, the heading being, of course, to correspond. St. George I likewise appears in silver or gold on plain paper. But if the Mahdi stationery is dear, t the Pompeian outdoes it in this respect, as it does in prettiness. Each sheet is tinted by hand—marbled in various shades of terra cotta. as if by the action of time and damp. Letter paper is also to be had of a deep lapis l»zuli-biue. a soft ihi-pink, and pleasant moss-green shades, thick and rough in the edge. L'ke timepieces, thermometers are now set in various knick-knacks for the drawing-room or librarv table. Here is one on the barrel of a chased steel and carved ebony pistol. An other is to be found in the handle ot a torna hawk, or a haiberd, beneath the visor of a chased steel helmet, or it may be combined with a paper weight. Ingenuity with regard to Daper weighta is by no mtano exhausted. The white mouse fraternizes with the bronze cat, poodle and bird of earlier date. Ills friend, the country mouse, and near relation, the water rat. are there also; the former nib bling a straw, the latter sitting on a water lily leaf. A row of birds—Jenny Wrer., Cock Kobin. all our winter favorites— perching on a snow-clad branch, look won dt rlullv natural. The old magnificence of the gold thimble has fallen to zero where not wreathed with pearls or brilliants; the gold top of the crys tal scent bottle is a mass of diamonds, or a smooth knob of translucent sapphire, deep toned carbuncle, or opaque lapis lazuli. Rose leaves, trefoils, flies without feet,and the stemless flowers of the dog ruse, viulet and daisies are the must favored designs for brooches The horseshoe is as great a favorite as it was twelve months ago, if not greater.— Condensed, from the London Queen. Seals Unwelcome in San Francis co Bay. The seal is coming to be “an issue” on the Pacific Coaat The animal has always been found aronnd the harbor of San Francisco, hut of late has appeared to be more common than formerly. A commission was recently appointed to investigate whether the diminu tion of fish in the waters of the bay and har bor approaches might not be due to this fact, and their report sustains the theory. Thev estimate that there are 4000 seals in the im mediate vicinity, and that they consume 120 tons of fish a day, or 40,800 tons a year, which exceeds the weight of all the fish brought into the San Francisco market for consumption in the city and all the suburban towns. As the seal respires above water and can only stay under the water a short time, lie makes no impression on deep water fish, like the cod, rook and sea bass, but preys ex clusively upon salmon, shad, herring and other kinds of fish which feed along the shore and in harbors and rivers where there is only a moderate depth of water. The salmon fish ermen suffer most severely, the seals swarm ing around their nets hr night, biting large holes and stealing great numbers of fish in this way. The evil is already serious and threaten* to grow worse if the intruders are reallv multiplying, as is generally believed. There is a growing opinion that the seal must go, hut the practical difficulty is how he can he made to leave. The seals about San Francisco are of an inferior sort, and it is doubtful whether their skins and oil would pay f.»r the trouble of killing them, if the old prohibition upon thetr slaughter should be rept ail'd.—New York Evening Post. Continued I'rofjreNS in tlm South. The increase in the value of the annual products of Southern manufactures in twelve Stiles (omitting West Virginia) since 1880 lias been #130 000,000. This extraordinary growth in manufactures lias not been obtained at the cost of tbe agri cultural interest, and we sincerely trust that the few stalwart Protectionists of the South will not fail to point out ibis important eco nomic fact to those of our Souibern friends who are »ailing to sacrifice manufacturing in terests on the erroneous supposition that it will hen- fit agriculture. Kor example, we find that the annual value of agricultural products for these states in 1880 was #550,000,000, as against #070,000. 000 in 1885: the value of stock and dairy products was #131.000.080 in 1880, as against #109,(881,000 in 1885, while the value of the produi ts of the mines has taken a bound up ward from #7,000.(88) in 1880 to #21.(8)0,000 in 1885. If we add to these figures the rela tive values of manufactures in the respective years, we find that, in round figures, the an nunl production of these twelve states lias in crease! in value from #1.(8)0,000,000 in 1880 to upwards of #1,300,000,(88) in 1885, an in creased productiveness of $300,000,000, or 30 per cent.—Phila.

Lorain sings very well and looks very prettv. Charles W. Young makes a good dude anti a better colored politician. A Dutch comedian, Chas. Loder, ia fairly good and the audience applauded his songs. An improvement was noted in the scenerv much to the gratification of the assemblage.

There was little doubt that the Colonel was Col Morton, the tire less candidate for the post-office. After din ner the trio went to the White House and were received by the President. They had a brief interview and re turned to the hotel in high spirits and express ing great satisfaction with their visit. Tues day night they took the train for New Eng land. The President and Postmaster General General are closeted together to-night, and rumor has it that the Augusta Post Office is nearer settlement than ever before. Post master General Vilas remained with the President until midnight. When he was leaving he was asked about Col Morton's visit. “I heard to-day that Col. Morton was here,*' he replied, “but I did not see him, and that is all I am prepared to say about him or about the Augusta Post Office.”—Bos ton Journal. Congressman AIllliEen at IVortliport. Hon. S.

He believed in organization and labor unions, he said, even though their members may sometimes go too far in their zeal to benefit their con ditions- The city is benefited by such unions as the grange among the farmers, for the country gives to the city its manhood; if it did not the city would not maintain its exis tence for three generations. If you go to the city you will find that the men who do the business of the city, who carry on the com merce of the globe came from the country, where in their boyhood they breathed in an atmosphere that gave them an abundance of good health and -good courage. No danger can come from co-operation among farmers, for they cannot move their business from the, country as others can when the hour of dan ger comes. HALLOWELL. A very pleasant time was enjoyed at the golden wedding of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Hovey, Tuesday evening. Quite a Urge number of their friends were there to offer their congratulations and gifts of friendship and esteem. The presents of which mere was quite a number were of a useful kind— such as a very nice easy rocking chair, a bar rel ot flour, two tons ot coal, etc. The Hal lowell Cornet Band tendered a serenade and were invited in to partake of refreshments. Mr. Hovey wore the same wedding vest that he wore when married fifty years ago. srpF.BioR cofbt. Meptcmbcr Term. let,. Wm P. White bone lirctidlac. Tuesday*. Sept. 15th.

Dr. Car michael came to Bowdoin in 1873, from Iowa college, and the term of his service has been exceeded in length by that of only one or two of the gentlemen now on the Faculty. He has been acknowledged from the first to be one of the ablest aod foremost of the sci entic men in the State. His broad and ex tensive learning and researches hare not been without practical advantage to himself and the public aa is shown bv the valuable patents which he holds and is interested in Hi* retirement from his duties, and it is also understood from Brunswiek, causes much re gret. His place is to be for the present sup plied by Mr. C. C. Hutchins, late of Leices ter Academy* Leicester, Mass. Mr. Hutch ins is a recent graduate of the college, who has distinguished himself by his aptitude for the natural sciences and by original work of no little importance. Not a Friends’ Petition. An idea has been obtained in some places that the petition for the commutation of Mrs. Barrows' sentence is a Friends’ petition, and thus represents only their views on the sub ject. This is not in any correct sense true. Fiiends, of course, have generally signed the petition, though not more largely than some other bodies, and the most able remarks made in its favor were by a pastor of one of our Congregationalist churches. It was not start ed by any church action of any denomina tion, and is.as was advisedly expressed in the petition, a plea from the Christian women of Maine, w ho feel that the gallows is no longer in keeping with the advancement of humanity in our Dirigo State. It is hoped every church and woman all over our State may feel they have some part in this work. Lrcr A Snow Windham, Sept. 14. 1885. Business Notices. •50.00 Reward. Gardiner, Sept lf», 1885. Editor Kennebec Journal: In August la-»t I set in the cemetery at Augusta an Italian marble tablet inscribed to Adella Craig When the stone was taken from our manufactory it was finished and letend in a proper and workmanlike manner. But infromation came to me through an exulting re mark of a marbl* dealer to one of my em ployees that the capital I in Craig which was i cut in capitals on the back of the stone was dotted. Upon investigation the outrage was discovered and from the manner in which j it was done hut one accustomed to mar ble workmen’s tools could have done j it. Ot course the mere rivalry exist ing between neighboring establishments could not be a sufficient inducement to any marble firm to investigate the mutilation above stated.

YOUNG. Aug. 24,1886 wSwtt* Sailo Untrtrtrc JonrnaL Jersey Cattle. In studying the various breeds of cattle which are in lavor, more or less, accord ing to the desire, wish or taste of each in dividual possessor or breeder, there is one verv patent fact which can not escape the attention of the observer, namely, that where certain purposes have been had in view in the breeding of these different breeds, these purposes have resulted in pr.siucing certain well defined character istics and points, and in many cases these characteristics have been produced with direct loss and injury to other attributes of the breed in question, possessed by the animal before the process of elimination had been entered upon by the breeder, skillful or otherwise, as the case might be. In the Shorthorns we have an extreme and immature development of beef, common ly and frequently attended with a lowness of vitality in the Ayr-hires and Hols'eins (improperly so called) we have an inor dinate increase in the flow of the milk, in many case* pursued to an extreme—afford-1 ing merely an increased quantity at the expense ol the quality, a change which many modern agriculturists are every day more and more inclined to regard as an exceeding disadvantage. In the case of I the Jerseys, which are now and sure lo g io continue prime favoiiies, the character istics and valuable points have become part of the deer-like little animals, with out any organized or systematic effort on the part of breeders in the first place; these characteristics, namely, large milk ers, the milk being extremely rich in cream, their small f rms and docile dispo sitions have without doubt been the direct result of their natural surroundings in their island home. Accu.tomed to quiet lives and very gentle treatment, they lead luxurious lives, as compared with other cattle in other and more genial climes, and every thing has tended to the development and maintenance of the milk and butter char acteristics of this breed. That these cows have lore possessed exceptional butter and milk qualities is exemplified in (he case of what is known in the Province of Quebec as the “Canadian cow." This cow possesses many of the marked traits of the Jersey, and has, through thick and thin, through good and evil report, always been a good milker, a docile animal, the pet of the h/ibitan's youngsters,and a good mother. It shows many Jersey points and is doubtless descended from the im portations of the first and later settlers who came lrom British and Northern France. And the same type may be found throughout various parts of Europe but where different methods of feeding (in some ea*-e.s the cattle are used under the joke) and other points of difference tend to give a different result in the butter or milk yield. Tiik Island ok Jersey. The island is of hut limited extent, being about eleven miles in length and eight miles in breadth, and having an area of about sixty square miles. The farms are small the|average size being about j twenty acres The land is very fertile! and the variations of temperature are but very slight. All the heauiiful hot house I flowers, with but few exceptions, grow out of doors; the camellia, the fuchsia, the oleander anti others blooming freelv at all seasons of the year. Two-thirds of the island is cultivated in some shit|te or manner, the cultivation be ing extrenielv deserving of the name of •■high class-’ farming, us hut little ground is allowed to go to waste. The island is much cut up into small fields, which has hcen necessitated by the local law of heir ship or succession, which has divided properties up amongst numerous heirs. Kverv farmer keeps at least one Jersey. And in this genial climate the Jersey cow has lived and prospered. And he has been kept free from foreign or alien blond by legislative enactment, as the imports tion of all foreign cattle has been strictly prohibited, under very severe penalties, for nearly a hundred years. The only cattle a'lowcd n be landed are cattle from the 1st nd ol Guernsey, but these have not hitherto been in very great tavor amongst Jersey breeders, as they are too coarse boned and possess other defects not at all pleasing to him who loves the deer-like forms ol the “silver'd Jersey.” But until within the past decade, or rather score of yens, more attention was paid to the milk qualities and development than to the improvement of the form of the ani mal. Latterly the demand has been for prettier forms in combination with the butter qualities, which has led to the in troduction of handsomer animals amongst breeders, and increased greatly the Jer seys in popular favor. Some writers maintain that if we wish lo continue the improvement of the Jer sev, we should, as nearly as our oondi tiatis will allow, conform to the riruum stances ot the original breeding and treat ment. One writer states. “The Jersev eow is a product of the Island of Jersey 1 of its soil. its climate. its system of agriculture, the circumstances of iis farmers, and the needs of the dense population there concentrated.” As I have above written, the Canadian cow has preserved the marks and traits of its Jersey blood through very adverse condi tions for scores of years, and under cir cumstances entirely opposite to those of the Island of Jersev. A more pointed il lustration of the wonderful adaptability, the trueness and value of the Jersev, is within the writer’s own experience where imported .Teres?','* were termed into a herd in the cold climate of Canada, and the progenv actually improved upon the im ported ones, and under the cold winters of Canada; this was the ease with ihe St. i Lambert herd ot Jerseys, with which the writer was personally and actively inter ested from its establishment till its dis posal last year. This herd had none of the genial climate of the Island of Jer- j sey on the contrary they had the cold winters and hot summers of the Province of Quebec, and vet suffered no deteriora tion a direct improvement by careful se lection and breeding was effected. For a i tew years we were troubled with the craze for solid colors and black points, to which we yielded in a measure, though we al- I wavs held in view the improvement of milking qualities. And right here let me say that l consider a bull ealt from a good milker of far more value to the breeder j and the country at large than two heifer, caves: yet it will not bring nearly as i much money. Too much stress cannoti te laid upon the importance of bulls, es- j peoially in Jerseys: it is my strong opin ion that Jersey bulls are verv prepotent, and should 1 be purchasing heifers I would pay far more attention to the pedi gree of the bull than of the eow—H.

Pettingill Failure He Was Uxable to Flvd the Kkt m His Wife's Dress Pocket. Col. Jim Pettingill, who is a stout man and perspires a great deal, went home to bis wife the other evening and asked her where she kept the key of his valise, as he wished to pack up' a few things and take the night train for Mobile to look after some important business matters. Mrs. Pettingill told him to go up stairs in her room and he would find the key in the pocket ot her black dress, which was hanging on a nail behind the door. Poor, foolish mortal, he did not know that it was easier, as the scripture says, for the eye of a rich man to crawl through a camel than for him to find the pocket of his wife's dre-s. Blinded by his own con fidence. he took the dress off the nail, and that moment his sufferings commenced. He took a short survey of the garment as he held it. up in his left hand in order to locate the position of the pocket. His eves rested on a small opening and he thrust hi« hand into it, only to find his fin gers gliding through a kind of bottomless concern, and then sticking his arm into it up to the hilt, he observed that bis hand was protruding from an aperture on the other side This caused him to change the position of the dress, and he saw an other opening and he sounded its depths and ascertained that it was the same mys terious hole he had been in a moment be fore. This slightly annoyed him, and alter throwing off his coat and vest and mop ping the streams of perspiration from his fare, he again went in search ot the pocket. He saw a little slit on the right side, and a softer light came into his eye*. “This is it,” he murmured, and putting his hand into a shallow flounce, commenced to grope anwmd for the key, which, however, was sleeping snugly in the pocket, at least twe feet away, ret tengill got mad and began to swear through his clenched teeth. He deter mined to find the pocket or die with his face to the toe. and the next minute he commenced stabbing the dress with both hands, hiting it straight blows from the shoulder, and dancing around it just as if he was engaged in a rough-and-tumble fight. He glanced at the clock and saw that the train would start in 40 minutes, and once more he jumped for the dress with a low yell that indicated plainly that he was mad enough to match himself against a hornet. He jammed his head into the folds of the dress and commenced digging with both hands, and, the air got full of “atin bows, pieces of watteau plaits and smothered growls. While sealed in a chair resting himselt he glared at the crumpled dress lying on the floor, and ihe idea occurred to him that the only one wav to keep the pocket from dodging him was to put the dress on. He did so and then renewed his search, but his hands would slide into loops, furbelows, folds, flounces, and everywhere else except the much desired pocket. This was more than he could stand, and he determined to take off the dress and tear it to pieces, and thus discover the dwelling place of the pocket. He pulled the dress up over his head, as if divesting him self of a shirt; it got caught in his suspender buckles, and wrapped it self around his neck in a peculiar way, and he stooped forward ami tugged at it witli all his strength, but it would not give an inch, and appeared to tighten its grip around his head. It was hot. and he was smothering in its folds, and in order to release himself he beat the air with both hands and danced up and down in one spot until the window-panes rattled. The dress, however, knew that it was get ting the best of him. and would not let him go, and then Pettingill. in his rage, made a blind dash and butted the bowl and pitcher off the wash-stand, and upset the rocking chair, which prodded him severely in the ribs. The next dive, he made the bureau suffer, and cologne-bottles and powder boxes, mingling with a tin bath-tub and bird-cage, rolled on the floor. Mrs. Pettingill heard the crash, and has tening up-stairs, discovered her husband lying on the floor on his back, with his arms ami head bound up in her dregs, and kicking his legs in the air and using pro fanity of 140 degrees in the shade. She pulled him out of the dress, and he sat up on the floor and gazed at her in a dazed way, and rubbed his ribs with one hand and wiped the blood off his nose with the ot er. There was a look in his eyes which told Mrs. Pettingill that it was not the time to talk to her husband, so she merely picked up the dress, and without any trouble at all stuck her hand in a certain place and took out the key, which she handed him without saying a word. It was too late to catch the train, so Pettin gill quietly bathed his bruised head and then went to a locksmith's shop, anti when he came home he brought his valise key with him. and it was chained to a bar of pig-iron.— New Orleans Times-Demo crat. ___ Beautiful Bridal Bonn* One of our best belles, judged by an ex treme standard ot tashion, has now distin guished herself by having tour dresses made in exact semblance of four which are in the trousseau of the Princess Beat rice of England. The first is a traveling gown ot rough English cloth in navy blue, and red stripes of narrow width. The skirt has pleats down the front and the overskirt is arranged in pleats and panels that hang straight and give the effect of a redingote. The basque has a notched coliar like that in men’s morning coats and is worn with a cravat of dull red silk the back rests smoothly on thetournure and is very short. Blue braid is stitched on the edires and the buttons are blue. The Tam O'Shanter cap is of dark red cloth, with a blue quill thrust through it. The second is for yachting and tennis. It is of cream white flannelette, with turquoise blue wool inlaid in small pleats between the large box pleats ot the skirt. The pleat ed ba-que is of the white flannelette with high officer's collar and a notched collar edged with blue; the belt is also white with blue edging. A sailor hat is of roueh white straw, with blue canvas ribbon band. The third is ot dark red habit cloth, with Ottoman silk of the same shade forming the vest, and inlaid between the wide box Dl“ats ot the skirt. The basque is sharply pointed in front, short on the hips, and pleated like a habit in the hack. The s'dk vest laps over the fastening of the lining in one place, in Breton fashion, and has revers at the upper part: the officer’s collar also has silk in Iront. The English turban worn with it is of red silk laid in folds and ornamented with a gilt pin The fourth dress has a waist of navy blue webbing, with blue serge skirts aDd trimming of crimson and blue blocks. The false skirt has a pleating of the blue around the bot tom and the serge is laid over this severe- ly plain on the front and sides, with all' Good health depends largely on the condition of the liver. This organ is easily affected because of its sluggish circulation. When it becomes disordered, stagnant blood accumulates in its venous system, causing it to discharge inert or bad bile. Many forms of disease result from its imperfect action, which deranges all tbe digestive and assimilative organs, and. tbrough these, impairs almost every function of mind and body. There is no Better way to insure tbe proper action of all tbe apparatus necessary to health, than to aid the stomach and liver by tbe occasional use of Ayer’s Pills. E. A. Robinson, lot School st., Lowell, Mass., says: “For a number of years I was stationed iu the tropics; and, while there, suffered much from torpidity of the liver and indigestion. Headaches and nausea disabled me for days at a time, and it was only by the use of Ayer’s Pills that 1 obtained relief. 1 know them to be tbe Best Cathartic Pills. They stimulate the appe tite, assist digestion, and leave the bowels In a natural condition." John H. Watson, proprietor University Hotel, Chapel Hill, N. C., writes: For twenty years I was a sufferer with sick headache. I began taking Ayer’s Pills, and quickly found relief. I have not bad an attack of head ache for years, and attribute my freedom from it to the use of Avert Pills." Jared Agnew, LaCrossc, Wix., writes: “I was cured of a grievous attack of Erysipelas by using Appetite readen the partaking of needful bodily sustenance a matter of pleasure. When ever the appetite fails, you may be sure the stomach and liver have become de ranged, and need to be corrected by the use of Ayer’s Pills. C. Danly, Belton, Texas, writes: I have taken Ayer’s Pills for vsrious affections arising from de rangements of the liver and digestive organs, and find them to be a powerful corrective.” If your Health is impaired a good cathartic medicine may aid vou. Miss M. Boyle, Wilkesbarre, Pa., writes: I use no other medicine than Ayer’s Pills. They are all that any one needs.” Dr. W. J. Talbot. Sacramento, Cal., writes: “The curative virtues of Ayer’s Pills commend them to all judi cious practitioners.” Dr. Charles Alberts, Horicon. Wis., writes: Last year I pro cured from you the formula of Avert Pills, and have since prescribed them with decided benefit.” No poisonous drugs are Found in the composition of Ayer's Pills. Dr. A. A. Hayes, State Assaver, Boston, Mass., certifies: I have made a careful analysis of Ayer’s Pills, with the formula of tbeir preparation. They eoutain the active principles of well known drugs, isolated from inert matter, which plan Is, chemically speaking, of great importance to their usefulness. It insures activity, certainty, and uniformity of effect. Ayer’s Pills contain no metallic or mineral sub stance, but the virtues of vegetable reme dies in skilful combination.” Ayer’s Ayer’s Pills, Pills for twenty days.” These Pills have been most successfully used in treatment of obstinate eases of Dropsy. taken in connection with Ayer’s Sarsapa rilla, have effected thousands of wonderful cures.
