THE ART EXHIBIT AT PARIS

French Love of Display Allows Huge fc'cenic Works to Overshadow Others. A Critic Points Out the Failing in the Various Schools Represented and Theorizes a3 to the Causes That Produce Them. Germans Trj to Please the American Commissioners by Feasting Them. Difficulty in Getting Information About the Samoan Treaty The Jajuc Cooks A&in Before the Parnell Commission; ART AT THE EXPOSITION. ACDiscriniinatlng; Critic Who Describes the Good and IUd Point of the Exhibit. Pari, May 22. A few observations may le added to what I cabled. ou last Saturday about tbe art department of the exposition. In failing to repress the obvious inferiority of merely imitative art, tho management has weakened a great exhibit. As a result tho exhibit has acquired an artificial magnificence by the profusion of hnge scenic works, many of them as largo as the itinerant Munkacsys and Verest,chagins, not possessed of greater intrinsic merit, but generally superior in purely decorative quality and essential dramatic strength. How positively these so-called ' historical audsceuic compositions dominate the entire exhibit may be conjectured from the fact that they are nearly half of the vhole number of works exhibited. Hearing to true art tho same relation that I'roude's historical writings bear to'history; i having in history only the tolerated placo .of the historical novel in iiction, having dimensions without dignity, professing veritableness, but lacking authenticity, and sacrilicing facts to the exigencies of of grouping, color-schemes and mcro ellectiveuess, they arouse the wild admiration of neophytes and win tho applause of those to whom color and action, apart from any ' higher value m point, are awesome. Many 'Of-tho works, primarily designed only for .the decoration of public edifices, are wholly above this censure, and have not been probably cannot be surpassed in the accomplishment of their end. It is true that some of tho huge canvases are devoted ostensibly to sacred or moral -themes. Hut whether great or moderate in superficial measure the religious works are not spiritual. They never melt the soul nor bend the knee. Even when a Hcnuer paints a cruciflxiou he hangs upon the cross a flaccid, common-place figure. His Saint Sebastian is meek, but not licavenly. Thero are dozen crucifixions or illustrations of the life of Christ in tho various national exhibitions. Not one of them possesses a spark of divinity. The religious 'themes are painted exactly in tho ame way as tho profane themes, exclusively from the objective. Not one incates, by the sucret, of the effort, that .the artistt believed in his subject, or felt lor what it represents a warmer glow of ove than for tho hat on his dashing cavalierortbo "wooden shoe on the foot of his peasant. Mythology still holds captive the sculptors, but the painters have preferred to lodge their muse in modern life. Only thirty-two works are on them, and .drawn from Hellenic or Komau literature, and these are generally employed with lineclleet. The cattle painters are rare. The exhibition contains no successors to Troyon, while sea and mountain no longer -command devotees in the art of France. There is not one good mountain study, and only thirty-three in which the sea is studied for its own charm. In none of these is its grandeur ever attempted. A striking feature of the exhibition is tho space given to what has been happily called the journalism of art, the depiction of transitory but actual episodes that enter into the notation of progress. Especially is this to be observed in relation to medieine and surgery. The auecdotage of the age constitutes also favorite material. The life at the time is presented with vigor, nicety and ' truth, but, as a rule, from the flippant and vivacious wa of seeing even the serious. The landscapes are tho most numerous -after the Kcenic compositions. They are. as a rule, superbly painted. The treatment of light from the front of the subject is the principle which has informed every work descriptive of nature. The painter no longer studies nature from within her seclusion. That immortal charm of Italian landscape of tho highest class; that spell which awoko in the breast of Constable and gave a landscape art to England, and, while the artist lived, established, in spite of national prejudice, the truest landscape school of France the principle of insight has fled from "the landscape painting of the dav. The new principle is outsight. The word is as new as the principle, but it is as verifiable. Whether he paint nature in tho rose of tho dawn or the pensiveuess of twilight: 'whether he sek her face in tho passion of noonda3 or the tranquillity of the stars, the French painter must have her close to liis eyes; ho must touch her with his hands, Jiis lips must sweep herforehead. He gives lis landscapes, therefore, whoso feature, by the very excellence of its artianhip, arouses in us more deliirht than tho theme itself. We forget the great mother in the absorbing talent of her son. The popularity of even spurious Corots and Kousseus is better understood when one discerns how utterly lied is the poet from the ateliers of France. Fact uro is tho god of the age. Passivity, beautiful indifference of sentiment, stillness without repose, or action instant, and theatic dnimato the.se admirable landscapes. Their superlativeness wears one's powers of appreciation to the very bone. Hunger and thirst for tho older school bcrnm?f rnnsnminrr. One crosses the threshold of tho galleries of the i.ouvre to rest one s snirit in tho landscapes of Claude Lorraine, a

half dozen of whose works possess more than a thousand "pleinaire" achievements. 1 here ism the French sculpture more, or less f this worship of execution, but itisnot so despotic and exclusive as in the painting. Indeed, many of tho sculptures are not so noble in ideality as thev are admirable in design. That perfect definition of arthigh imagination combined with splendid execution as laid down by Phillip (iilbert Hammerton. describes only in half tho art of France. Hut let it bo ungrudgingly declared that it is the vital art of the rigc, and that as imagination appears to bo dead or in a trance the world over, in literature, as well as in art, the world is beholden to France for nearly all that is valuable in the arts of design as they are now practiced. Next in uniformity of excellence, as well as in preserved individualism, comes tho art of Holland. Its influence is seen struggling with that of Franco in tho little group of German works, pathetic in tho meagerness of their number and the suggestion of the cause of their inefficiency ns i a national representation, but possessing genuine ami great virtue, both in theme and treatment. Scandinavian art tfiows something of this strule also, but the influence of Paris is paramount. Fully half the painters whose works are in the sections designated Sweden. Norway. Denmark, Switzerland and tircece study and paint in Paris. Hut tho art of Holland rises abovo tho influence of the French, and, while equal in facture, is in many instances superior in ideality. Helgium presents a laTgr number of works than anj other foreign country, and, while their excellence is not so uniform, the. art of the country must be rated lully abreast of that of France in variety of suliject. while it is superior in cattle paintinir. The English exhibit contains the most illustrious names since the time of Turner. lint it is difficult to reconcile, its landscape art with the rich legacy left by that master and his compeer. The employment of Constable in his fathers business that of a miller no doubt directed his observation, as is claimed, to the fitndy of clouds, as it was his special dntr to watch the changes of tho wind-mill. In the days when ho was painting it might have been said that, given the same lr.ndscnpe, the Dutch artist would have made th wind-mill the center, and Milor1inatc his composition to it: the Erer. ctinian would have made the miller's daughter the center, and introduced a city gallant with seductive address and fashion

able attirr, and tho English painter would have subordinated the wind-mill and tho family to tho beauties of the earth, and tho powers ol the air. All this is changed. Tho Dutchman linds themes more suave, without sacrificing aught of tho vigor of his forefathers. Although not their equal as a colorist, the Frenchman linds interest in landscapes without either wind-mills or gallants, and the English landscape of today i yielding involuntarily to the reign of the Frenchman, and has given back to France a larcer domain than Napoleon surrendered at Waterloo. Maiu-.aket E. Sullivan.

A HOUND OP FEASTS. Germans Vie with Each Other In Entertaining: America's Samoan Commissioners. LI Kit LIN, May SI. In addition to the hard work which the American commissioners to the Samoan conference lay out for themselves each day they are obliged to give up considerable time to social duties in tho gay German capital, and every night when they are not entertaining gnest3 at their rooms at tho Kaiserhoff they are sure to be at some dinner given in their honor 03- somo distinguished resident of Berlin. During the past week two notable dinners Avero given for them the tirst on Wednesday, by Sir Edward Malet, tho English embassador, and the other on Friday night, when Count Von Holstein, one of the German Secretaries of State, gave some of them a banquet, which for menu, wines and the character of its guests, is said never to have been eqaled in Berlin. The wines were of tho rarest vintages, and, indeed, most of them arc unpurchasablo now. Among guests wero Count Waldersee, the Von Moltke's successor; Count Von Wedell, tho Emperor's aid; Mr. Win. Walter Phelps,. Mr. Kasson, Count Eulenberg. and many other representatives of political and social rank. Count Von Holstein visited the United States somo thirty years ago, and was so kindly received by friends of Mr. Phelps that he has been most lavish in his hospitality here to that gentleman and his colleagues during their sta3'. The American delegation occupies an entire floor of tho Kaiserhof hotel. Each member has his private bed-ruhm and working-room adjoining, and in tho center of tho Miito is a largo and handsomely furnished room which, during the day, is used as a reception-room for formal visitors, and in the evening as a common diningroom. The workroom of each commissioner is beseiged day and night by newspaper men representing London and American jouruals, but thus far their success in getting news of tho proceedings of the commission has been confined to what they have been able to get in the form of indignant denials from tho German oflicials. Their method has been to concoct some story, which, if true, would bo so injurious to German interests that the German commissioners have felt compelled to deny it, and this denial generally forms the basis of voluminous dispatches. Tho Samoan conference will not meet again for several days. Tho commissioners have agreed to the questions at issue, and have drawn up a protocol. This has been telegraphed to the governments interested, and it is expected that replies will be received by wire. On their arrival a linal formal sitting will be held. GENERAL FOREIGN NEWS. One of the League Hooks Which Justin McCarthy Knows No thin About. London, May 31. Mr. Keid, of counsel for the Parnellitcs, stated before the Parnell commission to-day that thirty of tho league books would be produced before tho commission. Mr. Lock wood, also of counsel for the Parnellitcs, produced a book, which is alleged to have been Mr. Justin McCarthy's pass-book. The book covered the period extending from November, 1SS0. to May, 1S87. Among its entries was one of a check for 100 paid to Byrne. Mr. McCarthy took the stand and informed the court that the book had never been in his possession, and ho did not know before that it existed. Hard to Get .Justice Against Royalty. LONDON.May SI. The magistrate to whom reporter Simms applied for a summons for the Duke of Cambridge, and Police Inspector Robinson, whom he charged with having assaulted him during tho review of tho lire brigade at Whitehall on Saturday, refused to grant an order for their appearance. Mr. Simms has, therefore, applied to the conrt of Queens bench for a mandamus to compel the magistrate to issuo the order. Tragedy Near Dublin. Dublin, May 31. Mr. John H. Lawler, manager of the Ballymena branch of the Provincial Bank of Ireland, and Mr. Murray, the assistant manager, have been shot dead on a road a short distanco from Ballymena. It is supposed that Murray shot Lawler and then committed suicide. The crime has no connection with agrarian troubles. Gen. Hyppolite Now the Ruler of ITaytl. London, May 31. A cable dispatch has been received in this city from General HyPPlite, the insurgent leader of Hayti, 6aying that he has defeated President Legitime, captured Port-au-Prince, tho capital of that country and proclaimed himself provisional president. Cable Notes. . The Cunard Steamship Company and the Oceanic Steam-navigation Company have secured the coutracts to cany the outward British mails. Twelve thousand men are still on a strike at Saarand, Germany. They have asked the Emperor to receive a deputation of them. Several tribes in Morocco have rebelled against tho Sultan. Tho rebels have made prisoners of a number of ofliccrs, and threaten to kill them. Emperor William will decorate and appoint deputy Hamniacher a councillor of state as a reward for his mediation between the mine-owners and tho strikers. The civil marriage of Prince William, of Hohenzollern, and. Princess Marie, of Bourbon, occurred at the villa of the Countess of Trapani, at Baden Baden, on Monday. Mr. William O'Brien, member of Parliament, who was rccentlj released from an Irish prison, has gone to Nico to recuperate his health. A friend has placed a villa at his disposal. Tho earthquake reported on Thursday was also experienced m many towns on tho main land of both England and France. Among the places included are Portsmouth, Havant. Cherbourg, Havre, Kouen, Granville and Caen. No damage was done anywhere. Corruption Charges In Rhode Island. Newport, K. I., May 31. In the General Assembly this morning a report from, tho committee 011 elections concerning tho Block Island briber cases was read. Tho report stated that seventy-five to one hundred men were bribed to vote for John G. Shellield. jr., (Republican), who holds the seat, and that i" to 1(X) were paid for votes. The corruption revealed 03' the re I port was almost impossible to believe. 1 ho republicans made counter-charges against the Democrats of similar proceedings. With tho report was a resolution that Sheflield was not legale elected, and not entitled 10 his seat in the House, and that Christopher E. Chamrdin was entitled to the seat held hy Sheflield. The House voted 10 to 21 to continue (he matter to the January session. The committee ou sjecial legislation reported an act calling a convention to prepare the Constitution, and it was immediately passed by ono majority. Learned a Lesson In Electricity. ; OwKNsuor.o, Ky., May 31. At McKlroy's Cut. on the Owenshoro vfc. l-Yrilvillo railroad, the workmen had drilled eight holes, eighteen feet deep, which were charged with giant powder, .lack .Mefiuire. the bo.ss, ijred the blasts with a batter", and two of them failed to go oil. After a few minutes he went to the place and picked up the wires with his hands, which were w et. and the two delinquent blasts were discharged. McGuire was instantly covered with several feet of Fand and stone, and James Logan was thrown back against a bank and buried. The workmen commenced digging and in a few minutes released Logan, who was badly hurt. McGuire was found afterward, still alive but badly bruised, and ho will probably die from internal injuries.

CRONIN'S CLOTHES FOUND

Thev Arc Discovered Buried in the v Ground, Deeply Stained with Blood. Bis Name Attached to One of the Garments, and the Others Readily Recognized Other Police Developments Yesterday. Chicago, May 31. Dr. Cronin's clothes have been found, and another link forged in the chain of evidence that surrounds the murder. Tho lirst clew was obtained l3' the finding of the drawers 03" Sol. Hamburger ami Eddie Bresch. two little boys of Lakeview. Louis Hamburger, the thir-teeu-j'ear-old brother of the firstnamed lad, then notified the police, and conducting Lieutenant Schuettler to the mouth of the Fifty-ninth-' street sewer, instituted a search,! which resulted in tho unearthing of tho murdered physician's pants, coat and undershirt. They were buried over a foot underground, and were only discovered by probing in the sand with sharp sticks. The, shirt boro the name of tho unfortunate doctor, and the other articles were readily recognized as portions of his apparel." The pants, in places, were deeply stained with blood. Strange to say, however,, the physician's vest was missing, and in its place vasa vest of much coarser material, containing in the pockets five pennies and a cigar. This garment presumably belonged to ono of the murderers or accomplices. For this reason the police are making every effort to suppress the discover, hoping that Cronin's vest may be discovered in tho possession of one of the murderers. Considerable importance is attached to the fact that when the drawers were lirst discovered 03 the little boys, a couple of strangers appeared on tho 6pot and ordered them to destroy tho garments and throw away tho pieces. This mandato was obeyed, ami no more was thought of tho matter until the older brother was casualty informed of the circumstance. Both theso men wero strangers in that locality. The residence of the Carlsons was carefully searched by the police to-day. but nothing of a suspicious nature was discovered. Tho people of Lakeview aro demanding that tho sewer in which Cronin's body was found be searched from the catch-basin to the lake. They think it possible his tool3, hat and overcoat might be discovered in it, but as tho aparturo is only throe and onehalf feet in diameter tho police aro chary about facing the dangers of sewer gas. It is probable, however, that tho sewer will bo. to-morrow, thoroughly Hushed at least. It is reported upon apparently reliable authority that a blood-stained spade was also discovered near tho spot where tho clothing was found, but tho police givo this as emphatic denial as they h-ve tho many other important discoveries which were subsequently substantiated. Contrary to general expectation, tho" grand jury occupied itself to-day with routine business instead of taking up another branch of the Cronin case. This was duo to tho fact that Statc's-attorney Longenecker has not jret made up his mind whether ornot it is desirable to complicate the investigation by going into the alleged perversion of tho physical-force fund. Lawyer W. J. Hynes, with whom, it is said, tho murdered man left valuable papers, giving full details of what he had learned regarding the conspiracy against his life, had a long conference this aftemou with Chief Hubbard, butnoinfonnation was vouchsafed 03 either man regarding its nature. Before leaving the City Hall, however, Mr. Hynes said that he was now more convinced than ever that the conspiracy was tho work of individuals, and not of the Clan-Na-Gael as a body. He believed that the men under arrest were im-. plicated in the murder, but that they were not tho heads of the conspiracy, and may not have been tho actual murderers. Ho was not satisfied with the conduct of the case by the police, and would not be until the criminals were arrested and the guilt fastened upon them. The chief is said to have expressed the emphatic opinion that there was no evidence on hand that would , warrant any additional arrests, especially of the "suspects" on which tho batteries of Dr. Cronin's friends have been directed. The city detectives, however, are still follow-; ing up a number of leads, promising and unpromising, and some of which may result in additional arrests at any time. Local members of the Irish Land League express considerable satisfaction with the action of the Philadelphia committee on refusing to postpone the July convention, as suggested by President Fitzgerald. They say that the order is not identified in any way with tho recent tragedy, except that its members abhor tho crime and deploro the untimely end of the victim, and that the postponement of the convention by conveying a different impression might have worked great harm to the cause of Ireland. Ex-Detective Coughlin. P. O. Sullivan, the ice man, and Frank Woodruff were formally arraigned in Judge Williamson's court this afternodn on tho charge of murdering Dr. Cronin. They were hurriedly brought into court through the passage-; way leading from the jail, at a time when very few spectators were present. Counsel for the prisoners had not been notified of tho intended action, but Lawyer David, who represents Sullivan, happened to be in court at the time. All three pleaded "not guilty," and David made the stereotyped motion to quash the indictments, but no date was set lor argument. After each of the three prisoners had been furnished with a copy of the indictments against him, they were taken back to jail. All three looked anxious and careworn, although it was apparent that they were trying to preserve a cool exterior. An etlort was made this morning to manufacture a sensation out of the arrest of a man variously known as "Williams" and "Mac," and who was taken by tho police from a West Side lodging-house. It was gravely stated that he knew all about the crime, and that it would probably be developed that he was the man that nailed down the carpet in the Carlson cottage. Chief Hubbard knocked this storv in the head to-night- Williams, ho said, had not the slightest connection with the mystery, and ho was eimply being held at the Des-plaine8-street station pending his return to the Bridewell, from which he escaped some time ago. Mack is alleged to have told the following story: On tho 2d day of May ha was working for a Mrs. Wilson, on North Ashland avenue, scarcely a block from tho Carlson cottage. Mack was putting in screen windows at the time. While at work a lady, whoso name he understood to be Mrs. Dudley, came in and began to talk .with Mrs. Wilson. Mack was in the same room and ho overheard every word. Mrs. Dudley, who is a stout, fleshy woman, was talking very bitterly against a physician who had attended her husband. Mack says ho heard tho namo "Dr. Crouin" mentioned, but he did not know whether the phvsician complained of was the Cronin referred to or not. Mrs. Dudley seemed very much excited, and frequently made the remark, in great spirit, "I will get even with him." Mrs. Dualey said that she was working in an orphan as3Tlum, ou Burling street, but that she was going to leave the asylum, and that she daily expected to go to live with her two brothers in a cottage near l3 Mrs. Dudley pointed in the direction of the Carlson cottage in referring to tho placo sho was going to niovo into. At the Chicago Nursery and Half-orphan Asylum, on Burling street.it was found that a Mrs. Dudley had been there, but had since gone away. It is believed that Williams is one of the men who rented the Carlson cottace; that he is a carpet-layer by trade, and that ho laid the carpet in tho cottage. "What a Hostler Says About the Horse. , Omaha, Neb., May 31. Charles Soule, an hostler, now in the employ of Charles Mentor, on Davenport street, talked of tho Cronin murder to a reporter this afternoon. He was employed in Jim Cummings's barn, at No. 142 Madison street, Chicago, prior to his coming to Omaha. He was working there on tho night Cronin was murdered, . and states that about 2 o'clockiu the morning, or somo time after midnight, Woodruff drove up to the barn with the famous white horse that has been written 60 much about, and is supposed to have drawn tho ria which carried Cronin to his death. Woodruff said he wanted to leavo tho horso there over night, and would call for it in tho morning. Soule did not get up at the time, but the next morning found the white horse in his section, 11a cleaned him off;

fed and watered him, and Woodruff called about noon. "Is that horse all right!" asked Woodruff as he approached Soule. "I don't see anj'thing wrong with him," replied Soule. "Well, if anyone bad offered meSlOfor the entire outfit last nisht, he could have had it. I had a hell of a time with the beggar. In fact, 1 believe I would sell him pretty cheap this morniue." Soule took it for granted that Woodruff wanted to sell his outfit pretty badly, but at that time, of course, did not know an3thing about the murder. Woodruff then drove away, and was never seen again 03 Soule, as the latter left for Omaha two days later. Inquiries made rhow that Soale did leave Chicago at that time, and his statement is considered correct. Starkey to I5e Extradited. ' ' Chicago, May 31. Tho extradition of William J. Starkey has been determined upon. Aside from tho circumstances which have been regarded as tending to his connection with Cronin's death, there is said to be some new matter implicating him in actual guilt. Tho State's attorney has, it is said, been reluctant to attempt the extradition because of tho clear relief into which it throws his refusal to ask for Starkey's return, when Inspector B3rnes had the fugitivo under arreat in New York ten da3s ago. The extradition . papers must go through much red tape here, passforward, subsequently, through the hands of the Secretary of State of Illinois, aud then through the Department of State at Washington. In a recent Chicago case it took eight days before service could be obtained in Canada. If Starkey should be disposed to llee tho chances ot his arrest are not by any means promising. TELEGRAPHIC BREVITIES. Four children were severely injured in New York, yesterda3 by a heavy sign, which was blown from tho roof of a building. Ono received a fractured skull, and the others scalp injuries. - J. S. Elder, fifty years of age, was found dead, yesterda3 in bed, at the Central Hotel, Cincinnati. Ho was a traveling salesman for a carriage firm in Troy, N. V. Tho cause of his death is unknown. Rev. Wm. L. Gage, who is said to reside at Hartford, Conn., jumped from a fourthstory window of the Orthopaedic Hospital, in Philadelphia, yesterda3 and died a few hours later from his injuries. Mr. Gago came to the hospital for treatment for insomnia. Prof. F. J. Frawley, who disappeared mysterious' from Buffalo, on April 29, and afterwards turned up in Chicago, where ho was suspected of complicity in tho plot to assassinate Dr. Cronin, is discovered to have defrauded the American Business College, in Buffalo, of which he was principal, of nearb $.00. . . Tho annual report of the State Bank committee, of New Hampshire, will show that the savincs banks of the State have S23.633.000 invested in Western loans, an increase of $918,400 over last year. Tho report will also show that tho number of depositors is 144.b34, of whom 120,034 have more than $1,000 to their credit. Failure of a Machinery Firm. Chicago. May SI. George S. WTormer & Sons, of Chicago, Detroit and St. Louis, dealers in machine' on commission, mado assignments simultaneously in those cities to-dat the assignee in each case being Jas. M. Arnold. The main house is at Detroit. The liabilities of the Chicago house aro $",7,000; the assets only $12,140. "Poor business for a number of years, a struggle against hope, and being weighed down by a poorby-managed concern in St. Louis, was what caused tho failure," said W. W. Gnrle3 the attorney in the case, to-day. "The assignments wero made Bimultaneousby. in order to give the creditors of all the houses an equal chance." The largest creditors of the Chicago houao aro tho National Bank of America, of Chicago, $13,000; the Krie City iron-works, of Erie, Pa., $12,049; G. S. Wormer, Detroit, $11,2S5. St. Louis, May 81. Referring to the assignment of G. S. Wormer &. Sous, of Chicago, Detroit and St Louis, to-day, Mr. W. A. Shaw, tho representative of Mr. Arnold, the Chicago assignee, who was found in charge of the store tofjjtha'''firm here this afternoon, said tho assertion that the mismanagement of the St. Louis house was partly, tho cause of the failure was a mistake. He added: 'The house here is managed by Mr. Wormer himself. It was paying all its bills, taking caro of its paper and doing a nice business. The Chicago house is the one which will have to close." Defended Himself with a Pitchfork. Des Moines, la., 'May 31. A telegram from Mount Auburn reports brief particulars of a White Cap outrage which occurred near there on Wednesday nightt and in which several persons were fatally injured. The victim was a farmer, and his barn was burned down. Being driven out by the Uames he defended himself with a pitchfork, wounding several White Caps. All parties implicated are under arrest except the wounded. Death of Michael O'Donnell. Michael O'Donnell, thirty years of age, ex-superintendent of police, died at his home, No. 2C0 South West 6treet, last night at 9 o'clock, of consumption. His health began to fail aboi i a year ago, and since that time 1 e has been gradually growing worse. For several months he has been nnablo to attend to his duties as clerk of the Criminal Court. Mr. O'Donnell camo to America when a youth. During tho last ten years he has held quite a number of places of trust, and at the last city election was defeated for City Clerk. Ho was well known in Irish circles, and had his health not failed he intended to visit Ireland this summer. His wife died a little over a year "agoIany a' Life TJ AS been saved by the prompt use of A Ayer's Pills. Travelers by land or sea are liable to constipation or other derangements of the stomach and bowels which, if neglected, lead to serious and often fatal consequences. The most sure means of correcting these evils is the use. of Ayer's Cathartic Pills. The prudent sailing-master would as soon go to sea without his chronometer as without - a supply of these Pills. Though prompt and energetic in operation, Ayer's Pills leave no ill effects ; they are purely vegetable and sugar-coated ; the safest medicine for old and young, at home or abroad. " For eight years I. was afflicted with constipation, which at last became so bad that the doctors could do no more for me. Then I began to take Ayer's Pills, and soon the bowels recovered their natural and regular action, so that now I am in Excellent health." Mrs. C. E. Clark, Tewksbury, Massachusetts. "I regard Ayer's Pills as one of the most reliable general remedies of our times. They have been in use in my family for atfections requiring a purgative, and have given unvarying satisfaction. We have found them an excellent remdv for colds and light fevers." W. R. Woodson, Fort Worth, Texas. For several years I have relied more upon Aj'er's Pills than upon anything else in the medicine chest, to regulate my bowels and those of the ship's crew. These Pills are not severe in their action, but do their work thoroughly. I have used thetn Tvith good effect for the cure of rheumatism, kidney troubles, and dyspepsia." Capt. Mueller, Steamship Felicia, New York City. 'I have found Ayer's Cathartic Fills to be a better family medicine for common use than any other pills within ray knowledge. They are not only very effective, but safe and pleasant to tako . qualities which must make them valued by the public." Jules nauel, Perfumer, Philadelphia, Pa. Ayer's Pills, PREPARED BY Dr. J. C.
