This medicine, for nearly fifty years, has enjoyed a reputation, and made a .ecord for cures, that has never been Equaled by other preparations. AYEU’S Sarsaparilla eradicates the taint of hereditary scrofula and other blood diseases from the system, and it has, deservedly, the confidence of the people.

AVER’S Sarsaparilla
“I cannot forbear to express my joy at the relief 1 have obtained from the use of AYEU’S Sarsaparilla. 1 was atllicted with kidney troubles for about six months, suffering greatly with pains in the small of my back. In addition to this, my body was covered with pimply eruptions. The remedies prescribed failed to help mo. I then began to take AYEU’S Sarsaparilla, and, in a short time, the pains ceased and the pimples disappeared. I advise every young man or woman, in case of sickness resulting from impure blood, no matter how long standing the ease may he, to take AYEU’S Sarsaparilla.”—H.E.Jarmann, Sd William st., New Y'ork City. •

Mr. Chun is a merchant of Canton, lie is said to be one of the richest men in China. The Chinese government was very wroth when the act excluding its citizens from landing on American shores was passed by congress and in reply to President Harrison’s invitation to take part in the fair sent back a curt refusaL Mr. Chun heard about this and was grieved to think that his country would not be represented in any way at the fair. Ho called on Charles Seymour, the American consul at Canton, and talked the situation over, and finally decided to shoulder the burden of making China’s exhibit himself. Mr. Chun convinced Consul Seymour that he would represent his country creditably, and the consul cabled to Chief Fearn to save space for Mr. Chun. Ho assured the officials that the Chinese millionaire would spare no money to have the industries of his country properly shown. It is expected that the Chinese exhibit will be confined almost exclusively to manufactures hall. Mr. Chun intends to concentrate his efforts to show what the manufacturing industries of that country are doing. Ivory carving, silk fabrics and numerous decorative articles will form the principal cxbibft, on which Mr. Chun expects to spend thousands of dollars. The ricli Chinaman is not prompted by patriotic motives alone in making this lavish outlay at the fair. He is the senior partner and financier of one of the largest mercantile houses in Canton and by means of the exhibit expects to draw the attention of the American buyers to his house. Mr. Chun is something of a tourist and when he goes abroad travels in royal sty la, His face is familiar in some of the largest mercantile establishments

In the chapter of communities in his last work Sir John Lubbock repeats in a pleasurable understandable way his own researches with ants and bees. With not less than one thousand species of ants there are no two having the same habits. We are just finding out how long lived ants arc. He lias had working ants seven years old and a queen ant lived in one of h’s nests for fifteen years. He is certain that the ants of each community recognize each other. Sir John divided one community and kept them apart for a year and nine months, at the end of which they at onee recognized each other, “and were perfectly friendly, while they attacked ants from a different nest, although of the same species.” Sir John made his ants drunk with whisky and left them to their friends. The tipsy ones had nothing to say, but their friends knew them and dragged them off to their homes, where the besotted ones were watched over until they were sober. There were stranger ants among the inebriates, and the community took them and pitched them into the water. Thus it is evident that they “know their friends even when incapable of giving any sign or password.”

I’lntds In History.
There are lid existence to-riay about one hundred elan pflaids, of which about half are the Highland tartans. The other half are modern variations jvoduced by Lowland families for their identification, as certain ambitious persons to-day buy up or think up a fine coat of arms. The plaid oftenest seen on the streets to-day is the Gordon plaid. This is the blue and green and black plaid, with a single yellow liar. It must not be confounded with the blue and green and black with the white bar, which is the Lombard plaid; or the blue and green and black with the double yellow bar, which is the plaid of the Campbells of Hreadelbane; or the same plaid, with the single red and double white bar, which makes up the Colquhoun tartan. What a risky tiling it was to bo born at all in those days when it might cost a man his life not to know the difference between two bars of white and one bar of yellow in the tartan of any stranger he might meet on the wayside. The Gordon plaid has a famous history from back in the almost legendary days of Malcolm 111., when Richard of Gordon slew a monster in the Morse and got a big grant of land and a title for it.
Fish.” The fish, which are kept in a clear pool in the rear of the building, much resemble common dace or chub, but the old sheik who has charge of them says that they are really the reanimated souls of departed Moslems of high renown. One, a large black fish, the king of these piscatorial oddities, is said to seldom show himself, but the others may be seen in thousands. The old sheik, who must be of a theosophical turn of mind, says that during the Crimean war many of the older fishes went off under the sea to Sebastopol to fight the Russians, and that hundreds of them came back badly wounded. The people of Tripoli believe that anyone so indiscreet as to eat one of these fish would instantly die a horrible death. This superstition has been rife for years. 2\s long ago as 1855 Dr. Jessup, the American consul at Tripoli, caught some of them and cooked and ate them. He pronounced them as coarse and unpalatable food; otherwise unharmful.

KISSING THE BOOK.
Jurymen nud Witnesses Still Sworn In the old Fashion In England. Ignorance of the provisions of Mr. Hradlaugh’s oaths act of 1888 is, I suppose, responsible for the fact that hitherto jurymen and witnesses have never, or hardly ever, exercised the power they possess of demanding to be sworn in the Scotch fashion, with right hand held aloft, instead of by “kissing the book,” says London Truth. However, now that attention has been called to the matter in the press, the dirty and dangerous osculatory method of administering the oath appears likely to be superseded by the more seemly and Scotch practice. A juryman was sworn in the latter way at Liverpool assizes recently, and at Fulton police court a doctor objected, “on sanitary grounds,” to kiss the Testament which was handed to him. If court ofiicials were instructed to ask each 'witness or juryman in which way he would be sworn the nasty custom of “kissing the book" would soon be a thing of the past.

Bearded women have existed in all periods of the world’s history. Even Herodotus, the “Father of History,” gives us an account of one Hedasnes, “who lived above Halicarnassus,” a priestess of Minerva, whose chin regularly budded with a large beard whenever any public calamity impended. [See Herodotus, hook L, page 75.) Hartel Garetji, a woman of Copenhagen, had a beard reaching to her waist.
