Dr. Joy—Details of the double Tragedy at Chalfin Bridge. INDIANA. Fatal Result of Criminal Carelessness in Handling Gunpowder. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. liOGansport, Oct. I.—A terrific explosion ocjurred this morning at Bringhurst, caused by the criminal carelessness of a man named T. A. Kerne, of the firm of Shanklln & Kerns. Benjamin Britton went into the store and called for ft quantity of powder. The small can from which the explosive is retailed was empty, and Mr. Kerns picked up a full keg of twenty-five pounds, unscrewed the top, and, while pouring it out, the ashes from a cigar that he (Kerns) was smoking ignited the powder, and the result was a terrific explosion, completely wrecking the entire stock of goods, breaking all the glass and queenswaro, and every window, both up and down stairs. Mr. Kerns was burned beyond recognitior. in the face and body, and his right arm was broken below the elbow. Mr. Britton is quite severely burned in the face, but will recover after suffering excruciating agony. Kerns died to-night. Suicide at Greensburg. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Greensburg, Oct. I.—George Curran, aged . twenty seven, late on Wednesday evening called at the drug store of Talbott & Moss and bought fifteen cents worth of morphine, saying that he wanted something to induce sleep. Afterward he was seen at two saloons, at one of which he said to a visitor, “I am in distress; I have only two dollars. Can't you get met a pass to Cinsinnati? I can get home from there.” His home was at Corning, O. Later he was at the depot restaurant, where he took a glass of milk, and after drinking most of it put something white—prooably morphine—in it and drank it down, saying, “I am in a worse box than I ever was before; I am going to take this, and I hope to God 111 never wake up again. The best dose I could take would be a No. 38 Smith & Wesson.” About midnight he went to the Hotel Seitz and was assigned to Room 39, on the fourth floor. Nothing more was heard from him until last night, when, failing to answer a call, the clerk forced an entrance into the room and found Currao almost dead. A physician was called but he died before his arrival. In his pocket was found a sheet of paper on which he had begun to write a letter, but all that was* legible were the words “Good-bye, Sally.” Two telegrams to-day from relativesdirected the body to bo kept until to-morrow. Curran was a blacksmith, apd formerly worked at Harris City, this county.

The Late Rev. Dr. Joy. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Greencastle, Oct. I.—This afternoon the remains of Rev. Dr. Joy, who died yesterday, were taken to Grand Rapids, Mich. Brief religious exercises were conducted at the resilenee of T. S. Nelson, in which Drs. Martin, *&ee, Zaring and Bowman, of thi3 city, participated. The latter and Dr. Gilbert, of Indianapolis, a former associate of the deceased, made sympathetic remarks. Drs. John and Ridpath, and Messrs. Birch and Darnell, the first representing the faculty of the university, and the others the church, accompanied the family. Dr. Jey leaves a widow and one son, who in less than a week after their departure return to their home in Michigan, so greatly bqreaved. The officials and members of College-avenue Church have done all in their power to show their regard for their pastor, and to comfort and support his almost broken-hearted widow. The whole community has been greatly moved by one o! the suddest events that has ooeurred here for many years. Two or three friends from Grand Rapids, Mich.. and Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Smith, of Indianapolis, who were married by Dr. Joy in Kalamazoo, when he was there, were present at the funeral. A I.unatic’s Imaginary Crimes. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Wabash, Oct I.—Last night Sheriff Bossier Walter, of this city, left for Troy, N. Y., where he will take into custody Frank E. Stevens, formerly engaged in the manufacture of pipe organs, in this city. In 1882 Stevens and Miss Lora Stephenson, a popular young lady of this city, were married, ar.d they subsequently visited the Pacific coast, SteveDS, embarking in business in San Francisco. A year ago, while laboring under temporary insanity, he confessed numerous crimes, including grand larceny and bigamy; but the authorities, believing him deranged, refused to place him under arrest He and his wife afterward came East, and while he went on to Troy, N. Y., she took up her abode with her mother in this city. Stevens has repeatedly written her, and, as proof of his condition, he subscribes himself, “Esra, the Empire, the Church, the King.” He will be removed to the asylum on his arrival. Mr. Stevens is a handsome man of forty-eight, a |ne musician, and of pleasing address. He has traveled extensively, and is known all over the United States. A Democratic Failure. forrespondence of the Indianapolis journal. Lagrange, Sept. 30.—The grand Democratic rally for the opening of the campaign in Lagrange county was a complete failure. For several weeks the Lowry Democratic sheet has announced a grand rally, to be addressed by W. R. Myers, Secretary of State; J. C. Nelson, nominee for Lieutenant-governor, and Robert Lowry, “the soldiers’ friend.” The weather was all that could be wished for. Our agricultural fair was in session to attract people to town, but by actual count by one person, there were seventyseven in the auditorium and six in the gallery. Another person a short time afterwards counted frut seventy-three. While Lowry was doing the wind-work, Henry C. Stanley, the Democratic nominee opposing him, was around among the business men making acquaintances and good impressions. K. of P. Drill Prize Brought Home. tpeelal to the IndianaDolis Journ*’ Kokomo. Oct I.—Capt Henry C. Davis, of U. R, No. 6. K. of P., of this city, has just received from the Red Cross Division, of Cleveland, 0., the SSOO prize won by No. G at the Cleveland tournament in 1883, and over which a good many criticisms have been made. While the Kokomo champions were disappointed at having to wait so long for this honorably-won prize, they feel that a good deal has been said unjustly of the Red Cross Division, and they now believe the Cleveland Knights have acted honorably and iu good faith in the whole matter. Minor Notes. Vincennes is now lighted by electricity. Rush county hogs are succumbing in large numbers to cholera. The attendance at the Jay county fair on Thursday was 21,000 persons. Mrs. Marla B Woodworth has commenced a Series of revival meetings at Muncie. Three card-monte sherpers swindled Thomas Spears, a wealthy farmer residing near Columbia City, out of $1,750. At Austin, Thomas Miller died from injuries received iu a runaway accident. He was about twenty-four years old and unmarried. The Review-Democrat, published at Anderson, %as been purchased by ex State Senator Hillirass. of Huntington, father of the last reaistrictng bill While Mrs. Jane Lucas, of Rushville, was carrying a tray of coffee Saturday, to be served t the county asylum, she accidentally let it

fall, spilling the contents all over her eighteen-months-old child. It lived m agony until Thc:-s----day morning, when it died, Anna Salmond, of Colnmbus, aged twelve years, caught her left arm between the palings of a fence, in running out of a gate, and broke her arm above the elbow. Thomas Cleary, a tramp printer, was arrosted at Lafayette, yesterday, for the theft of a suit of clothes and a gold watch from a room-mate at Terre Hante on Wednesday night. Fire at Columbus yesterday totally destroyed a tenement-house, the occupants narrowly ing with their lives. Loss. $400; insurance, SSOO, in the German Mutual, of Indianapolis. Jacob Miller, a wealthy merchant of Tiosa, has been sued for slander by the Misses Ella and Martha Phillips, in SIO,OOO. He charged them with being implicated in the theft of two shawls from bis store. A jury has been secured in the Strunk trial, at New Albany without a challenge. Consid erable interest is manifested in the case, and among those who are in attendance at court is Dr. Charles L. Hoover, father of the murdered man, and who also received a wound at the time of the killing, from which he now goes on crutches. On Wednesday night Joseph Brown and Eugene Curry, both farmers, who reside near Vevav, had a fight about politics. Brown drew a knife and seriously cut Curry in thirteen places. Curry is in a precarious condition, but it is thought he will recover. He was taken home in a spring wagon, and Brown made good his escape. On Sunday, Oct. 10, Rev. J. H. Ford, of New Castle, will dedicate the new Methodist Episcopal Church at Lynn. This building is after the church extension plan, No. 5 A. E., and is one of the most beautiful and convenient church buildings in eastern Indiana. All former and adjacent pastors and presiding elders have been invited, and a pleasant time is anticipated. Asa passenger train was nearing Orleans, on Tuesday evening, a farmer’s team of two horses and a heavy wagon took fright and started across the track. The engineer managed to stop within ten feet of them, when they started straight up the track over cross-ties and over two cattleguards, running a distance of two miles, receiv ing only a few scratches, and the driver was but slightly hurt. Engineer Thomas McDowell, of the Lafayette water-works, tendered bis resignation to Superintendent Gore last evening. The resignation was in anticipation of a request by the Board of Water-works Commissioners. McDowell will be superseded by Elias Schuessler. This is another feature of the recent water-works board squabbling, in which Harry Moyer was superseded by Charles Gore as superintendent. Near Columbus, on Thursday, four bridge carpenters were carrying a heavy timber on a trestle work which was under water, when one of their number, August Voglesong. stepped on a half-inch spike, which passed entirely through his foot To loose his bold would have been death to all of them, and for fifteen minutes h stood with the spike penetrating his foot, at the same time ]iftmg his share of the timber. His condition is precarious.

ILLINOIS. Details of the Recent Startling Double Tragedy at Chnlfln Bridge. Waterloo, Oct I.—Further particulars have been received of the double tragedy at Chalfin Bridge, Monroe county. Eddie Clark was only seventeen years old and Melissa Fults not yet fifteen. She was still wearing short dresses, and was nothing but a girl in her actions, and he was still a boy. a razor never having touched his face. The girl’s brother, Chris, jr., was married to the boy’s sister Effie, and the two families were on the best of terms, and lived on adjoining farms. Eddie and Melissa weut to the same school, recited in the same classes, and always walked home together. Eddie lived nearly a mile further from school, but on the same road. A year ago they became very much attached to each other, but during the summer vacation they were not much together, and when school opened again, a few weeks ago, Melissa was a different girl from what she was a few months before. She told, him that she was not old enough to have a lover. Her mother had told her so, and she did not want him to bother her any more. From this moment the boy’s whole character was changed. He told some of his comrades that he was going to kiU Melissa and himself, but they only laughed at him. and no one thought he would attempt anything of the kind. In the afternoon he stopped Melissa as she was walking home from school with several other children, and said: “Melissa, you remember what I told you at Maysville?” and without waiting for an answer he drew a pistol from a pocket and fired at her. Twice he fired in quick succession, and the poor girl dropped dead with two bullets in her head. The other children ran away screaming, and the maddened lover knelt beside the corpse of his sweetheart, kissed her forehead, and then putting the pistol to his own head, fired twice and fell by her side in a dying condition, both balls having entered his brain. He lingered five hours before dying, but never recovered consciousness. The funerals were held together to-day. Brief Mention. A large rattlesnake was killed within six feet of the door of a school-house at Fletcher. Children were playing all around it when it was discovered. Walter Bretz, an eiglit-year-old boy of Springfield, found an old musket in a closet. It was loaded, much to the boy’s surprise. He lost a thumb and two fingers. A monument to the memory of the Stephenson county soldiers who fell in the Black Hawk war was dedicated on Thursday at a point nine miles from Lena. The remains of twelve soldiers and two civilians were buried at the foot of the shaft. On Thursday night incendiaries fired the large barn of Alexander Lagow. a wealthy farmer living near Russellville. The barn, six mules and horses and a large quantity of farming machinery was destroyed. Loss, $3,000; insurance, S9OO. The Northwestern Mutual Aid Association of Bloomington had the body of Joseph Wanner exhumed on Thursday, after it had lain five months in the crave and four weeks in the Illinois river. They expected to avoid the payment of a $2,500 life claim, it is said, maintaining that the drowned man was not Wanner. The task was given up, as the body wan unrecognizable. Ownership of Market Quotations. Chicago, Oct., 1. —Judge Bagiev this morning dismissed the motion for an injunction preferred by the New York and Chicago Grain and Stock Exchange against the Board of Trade and the Western Union Telegraph Company to restrain them from withholding telegraph reports of the market quotations. The court held that the Board of Trade has certain powers granted it, among which are the right to control and govern its members in their use of the privileges which they enjoy as such. It also has discretion in controlling the manner in which the quotations on its floor are distributed to the public, and the ruling prices on the board cannot be demanded by outsiders. The court went on to say that, from his understanding of the case, the complainants were asking that the Board of Trade be compelled to discriminate against its members in furnishing quotations on the outside simultaneously with their adoption on the floor, and thus deprive the members of tho board of the privileges they possess over outsiders in becoming members of the board and contributing to its support This is the latest development of the proceedings instituted when the board ordered the removal, a vear or more ago, of the “tickers” from the bucket-shops. Removal of Chief-Justice Chase's Remains. Columbus, 0., Oct. I.—The remains of the late Chief-justice Chase will be removed from ■Washington to Cincinnati, Oct. 14, when services will be held in the rotunda of the Capitol in this city. It is expected that short addresses will be delivered by Justice Stanley Matthews and ex-Governor Hoadly, and the religious service will be conducted by Bishop Bedell, of Ohio. The remains will be accompanied West by judges of the United States Supreme Court and friends of the deceased, and will reach Columbus on the morning of the 14th. It is expected that the service may be concluded in timo to proceed to Cincinnati the same day. Halford Sauce kept by A l grocers. Ask for it

TUB BUSINESS OUTLOOK. Bradstreet’s Figures Show a Continued Increase in tlie Volnrne of Transactions. New York, Oct L— Special telegrams to Bradstreet's point to a volume of general trade quite equal to that reported in late weeks with a satisfactory inquiry and demand. The movement of staple goods is increasing in the Southwest and West, while in Kansas the demand is reported better than in a corresponding period in any preceding year. General trade is quiet at San Francisco, and at New Orleans it has been checked, owing to tho approach of the close of the month, as well as to the scare produced by prediction of an earthquake. The bank clearings at thirty cities, especially wired Bradstroets, point to an unmistakably full volume of commercial transactions, speculative and otherwise, exceeding in the aggregate the late exhibits. The week's total is $994,620,369, as compared with $968,003,869 last week, and with $842,099,225 in the closing week of September, 1885 —a gain of 3.8 per cent, on the week, and of 6 3 per cent, aeainst the like week last year. The activity in the stock market, as well as investments made owine to anticipated October disbursements of interest and dividends, are largely responsible for the increase. The gross earnings of fortythree railways for the third week in September, as reported to Bradstreets, aggregate $4,155,486, against $3,950,290 in the like week of 1885. The earnings of forty-four roads, from January 1 to date, are $134,088,126. against $123,427,600 last year, again of $10,660,526 during nine months past. The New York stock market was strong and advanced irregularly, with several reactions, though the temper of the market was generally bullish. At the close fears of danger to the trunk line pool from the dissatisfaction of the Pennsylvania road caused a more timid feeling. The transactions of the week were 2,653,233 shares, against 3,395.329 last week. Bonds were strong; the transactions were $9,867,500, against $10,035,600 last week. Money was firmer and rates were manipulated as high as 10 and 15 per cent., though the bulk of business in call loans was at rates varying from 5 to 8 per cent. Prices of dry goods have been sustained—in some lines of cottons advanced —and the demand is good. The wool market continues vef*y strong, as manufacturers are buying with more freedom. American wool prices are said to be lower than foreign. The quarterly reports of visible grain and flour stocks to Bradstreet’s show heavy increases since July, and indicate that both wheat and corn have been heavily marketed. The September cotton report announces a moderate improvement in condition, owing to favorable weather. The domestic iron trade continues active, and prices are very firm. An advance for next year is probable. Finished iron is about l-10c higher per pound. Authracite coal is fairly active at the ordered advances, but petroleum, hog products, wheat, Indian corn and sugar are lower. The heavy receipts of grain, large visible supplies and conservative attitude of foreign buyers are responsible for lower prices. New Orleans advices point to a 25 per cent, reduction in the Louisiana sugar crop. Easier London markets, with slow demand for refined sugar, have resulted in the lowest quotations on record.

The A. S. Gage & Cos. Failure. Chicago, 111., Oct. I. —The 6tore of A. S. Gage & Cos., was reopened at 10 o’clock this morning by the assignee, who, under the order of Judge Prendergast, will conduct the business for the benefit of the creditors pending a settlement of the affairs of the embarrassed firm. There was a rush of customers, and beyond the prevalence of inquiries which the sales people found it difficult to answer, business was carried on as usual. The liabilities and assets have not yet been scheduled, but the former are estimated at SBOO,000, and the latter at over $1,000,000. Among the ascertained liabilities are the claims of the First National Bank, for $97,000; Messrs. Bloomingt’nal, of Pbiladelphia, for $30,000; H. B. Claflin & Cos., of New York, for $21,000; J. V. Farweil & Cos., of Chicago, for about $20,000; Ojafee& Pinkus, $25,000; Potter, Lovell & Cos., $55,000; E. S. Jaffrey Cos., $11,000; Isadoro Cohnfield & Cos., $6,000, Weil & Dryfus, $3,000; Martin Ryerson, SIO,OOO. A. S. Gage will appear in Judge Prendergast’s court next Wednesday morning, when he will be expected to answer any questions which the creditors may ask. The assignee hascommenced to take an invoice, but does not expect to have it completed for a week. There are no preferences in the assignment, but the parties who own stock in the building applied to the courts to-day for the exemption of their goods. Two bills in chancery were filed in the Superior Court this afternoon on behalf of certain Eastern creditors, seeking to make Mr. Ryerson. one of the special partners of the firm of A. S. Gage & Cos., liable as a general partner, on the ground that the law respecting special partnerships had not been fully ob served. The agents of Lestinne & Tabb, silk manufacturers of Paris, will petition the County Court to-morrow for the return of a large number of astrachan cloaks which were received at Gage’s store on the morning of .the failure. There is now in the custom houses $25,000 worth of imported goods on which Gage is unable to pay the duty. In connection with one of the suits entered against the firm to-day is a bill asking to have set aside the confessions of judgment. the assignment and attachments. In lieu of these it is requested that a receiver be appointed. Receiver Appointed. Special to the Indianapolis Journal. Champaign, 111.. Oct. I.—The Champaign Twine and Bagging Company went into the hands of a receiver to-day. The company has a paid-up capital of SIOO,OOO, and assets of $150,000, with debts one-half as much. A. H. Bryan is receiver. A Novel Parade at St. Louis. St. Loui3, Oct. I.—St. Louis has had many magnificent processions, but nothing has eclipsed the novelty and weird beauty of the wheelmen’s illuminated parade, which took place to-night on the asphalt streets of the West End of the city, over a route nearly three miles in length A dense throng of people ereeted the the parade, and despite the efforts of the police, the crowd filled the streets in some places so that only a narrow path was left for the cyclers. Headed by a brass band the 350 riders rolled up the streets, two flambeau clubs on wheels, carrying red torches, lighting up the line, which was about a mile long. Sauads of riders representing animals, demons and cowboys, formed a varieeated collection, while some of the special bicycle and tricycle floats were marvels of illumination. The State officers of the League of American Wheelmen, under whose auspices tho parade was given, have been asked to repeat it during the fair next week. Miss Cameron Wants Protection. New York, Oct. I.— David Debensaude, husband of Violet Cameron, was up in the court of Special Sessions, this afternoon, charged with having threatened the life of his wife. He denied he had ever made any such threats as those charged, and stated that his only object in coming to this country was to protect his wife’s honor? This afternoon Miss Cameron was upon the stand. She testified that she was married to the witne.-s some years ago, in Italy. She was to appear in the Casino next Wednesday, but had been threatened. She had seen the defendant but once, and that was outside of Deimonico’s. The witness admitted that she had been charged with adultery with Lord Lonsdale, but that the suit had been withdrawn. She refused to answer further questions on that subject. Debensaude was held for examinatioaon Monday on the charge of threatening to shoot his wife. He was unable to procure bail and was locked up. An Astonishing Display of Nerve. Youngstown, 0., Oct. I.—Fred Kruest, an industrious, skillful shoemaker of exemplary habits, left bis home this morning, stating to his wife that he was going to a leather store to purchase stock. He returned about noon, and acted very strangely. Not until then was it discovered that he had shot himself. Placing a revolver in his mouth, he had sent a bullet into

his head, the ball ranging upward and lodging in the brain, back of the right ear. While in some part of the city—where is not known —he had attempted suicide, and, with a ball lodged in his head, had walked through the streets and reached his home without his condition being discovered. This afternoon he became unconscious, and his death is expected at any moment A Commendable Nomination. National HepttblTcan. One of the most commendable noraioatiens thus far made by the Republicans for Congress has been that of Gen. Alvin P. Hovey in the First district of Indiana. General Hovey is in all respects admirably fitted to make a useful and prominent member of the lower house. He is a thoroughly trained lawyer, and has occupied a seat on the Supreme Bench of his State. He was a gallant soldier in the late war, attaining the rank of major-general. He is an experienced diplomatist, having held the post of minister to Peru for several years, and is well informed in Spanish-American affairs. He would be a valuable addition to the judiciary, military or foreign-affairs committee. The people of the First Indiana district will do themseiveß a real service by sending General Hovey to Congress, and greatly improve the character of their usual representation in that body. Religious Enthusiasm Gone Astray. Philadelphia Telegraph, Os course it was a beastly, uncivilized proceeding for certain heathen Chinese in the province of Se-Chuen to massacre Methodist missionaries because the Catholic archbishop of Chun-King outraged native and heathen sensibilities by using yellow tiles in his new cathedral; but when we remember the case of that Hindoo at Ocean Grove, last summer, who was sent to Freehold jail on a charge of blasphemy, because he declared that there wasn’t any use in sending Methodist missionaries to India, we cannot but reflect that the characteristics of religious enthusiasm are pretty much the same in all countries and all conditions. The Popular Opinion; Boston Transcript. “What is the greatest work of creation?” asked the teacher; and little Johnny, whose mind was still full of the Odd fellows’parade, promptly responded: “The drum-major.” Design for Colfax’s Statue. Soon after the death of the late Schuyler Colfax, the Grand Lodge, I. O. O. F., of which he was a distinguished member, appointed a committee to secure funds for the erection of a suitable monument to his memory. The committee has succeeded in raising a considerable amount, and recommended the awarding of the contract. Accordingly the executive committee, composed of Rev. J. W. McQuiddy, Theo. P, Haugheyand Mrs. Henrietta Despa began a careful examination of desigus, which resulted in their awarding the contract for the monument to Mr. A. A. McKain, of this city. Mr. McKain’s design is for a bronze statue of Mr. Colfax, set on a Barre granite pedestal. The pedestal will be triangular in shape, symbolizing the fundamental principles of the order—friendship, love and truth. In the die will be placed a bronzed medallion of Rebekah at the well. The monument is to be completed by the Ist of next May. The lodge has not yet determined on a location.

Suffering from the Law’s Delay. Mrs. Mary A. Humphreys, who was arrested nine mouths ago on the charge of continuing to draw a pension as a soldier’s widow after she had been married, has since been in jail, unable, as she claims, to get a trial. She says that she paid to J. J. Walsh, who is the Democratic candidate for joint Representative from Marion, Hancock and Shelby counties, the sum of S4O to act as her attorney, but that he has 6ince given no attention to her ca:" She afterwards engaged Judge Logan, and g& i him a mortgage for $l5O on her farm in Tennessee. Tiring of her prolonged imprisonment, s;ie addressed a letter to President Cleveland, teldng him about her case and appealing to him fcr aid. She received a kindly letter in reply, telling her to address tho Attorney-general, but she was advised bv hen-gpunsel that it would be improper to do this. Tho deputy district attorney is credited with saving that the woman should have been tried long ago, but he gives no explanation of why this has not been done. The Y. M. C. A. Corner-Stone Ceremonies. Rev. G. L. McNutt yesterday received a letter from Bishop Huntington, of Philadelphia, accepting the invitation to be present at the ceremonies attending the laying of the corner-stone of the new Y. M. C. A. building on the 14th inst. Dr. McPherson, of Chicago, will also be here, and other distinguished persons are expected. Gapen’s Check Still Unaccounted For. Deputy Treasurer Richard Conner returned yesterday, and, very much to the disappointment of State Treasurer Cooper, is not able to furnish any information in regard to that S6O- - which, it is claimed, P. M. Gapen, as trustee of tue Insane Hospital, turned back into the treasury. The combination, proportion and process in preparing Hood’s Sarsaparilla are peculiar to this medicine and UDknown to others. JUNSRALJiCnriCE. WALLACE—The funeral of Horace E.

They are invaluable. For some years I was a victim to Liver Complaint, in consequence of which I suffered horn General Debility and Indigestion. A few boxes of Ayer's Pills restored me to perfect health. —W. T. Brightney, Henderson, W. Va. For years I have relied more upon Ayer’s Pills than anything else, to Regulate my bowels. These Pills are mild in action, and do their wprk thoroughly. I have used them, with good effect, in cases of Rheumatism and Dyspepsia.— G. F. Miller, Attleborough, Mass. Ayer’s Pills cured me of Stomach and Liver troubles, from which I had suffered for years. I consider them the best pills made, and would not be without them. —Morris Gates, Downsville, N. Y. I was attacked with Bilious Fever, which was followed by Jaundice, and was so dangerously ill that my friends despaired of my recovery. I commenced taking Ayer’s Pills, and soon regained my customary strength and vigor.— John C. Pattison, Lowell, Nebraska. Last spring I suffered greatly from a troublesome numor on my side. In spite of every effort to cure this eruption, it increased until the flesh became entirely raw. I was troubled, at the same time, with Indigestion, and distressing pains in The Bowels. By the advioe of a friend I began taking Ayer’s Pills. In a short time 1 was free from pain, my food digested properly, the sores on my body commenced healing, and, in less than one month, I was cured. Samuel D. "SYhite, Atlanta, Ga. I have long used Ayer’s Pills, in my family, and believe them to be the best pills made.— S. C. Darden, Darden, Miss. My wife and little girl were taken with Dysentery a few days ago, and I at once began giving them small doses of Ayer’s Pills, thinking I would call a doctor if the disease became any worse. In a short time the bloody discharges stopped, all pain went away, and health was restored. Theodore Esling, Richmond, Va. tt ' Ayer’s Pills,® Prepared by Dr. J. C. Ayer Sc Cos., Lowell, Mass.
