AN IRISH BALLAD OF LIFE IN KERRY.
Tsow listen awhile the truth I will state, How those moonlighting heroes of la to mada a raid Down in Castle arm In John Curtin's place. The? entered the kitchea with ma.sks.oa their face, I And boldly demanding firearms with rifles E resented tiejr followed his son, t into the parlor in search of a sun. From the top of the stair two bullets did come, Which murdered the poor widow's darling. . A lad in the rank, a dashing young blade, With a daring young heart that never was dismayed. He levelled his rffle that ne'er him betrayed, And le!t the old bloodhound there squeliiag. They fought and they rallied through parlor and hall. Outside in the kitchen old Cnrtin did fall, But for damp ammunition we would settle them all, Which is but the fate of informers. ITU grandfather, too, I'm informed ot late. He brought totne gallows in the year "Js Four dozen of cruppers, the truth we must state. For which he waa highly rewarded; Hut the blood oi those martyrs for vengeance does call. It was heaven decreed that Cnrtin should fail, Success to the right bov that gave him the ball, God prosper him over the water! Nora and LIzze with Agnes, the three Came tumbling oown stair in the midst of the spree, With Boran that evening they -drank In fall glee. But little expected the slaughter. It's a pity the lapdogof Kenmare Estate Was not caught in tne den ; we would give him a taste Of some powder and ball that would send him in haste Far away from tormenting poor sinners. So now to conclude and finish my song, ilay those boys thai in jail be at home before loug. Those two innocent men that are In the wrong. That the Lord lie may keep them from harrum, Kot forgettisg Thady Sullivan shot through the head. May the powers above for his soul find a bed. And his loving mother is now nearly dead.

"And why, dear one," he aked impulsively ; '-why do you wish I were yon brilliant orb?" "Because," she replied, in cold, matter-of-fact Bostonese tones; "because yon brilliant orb is just 11760,971 miles away." And he faded silently out like a mist before a summer sun. New Haven Union. It is narrated recently that a small boy, one of a family of eleven, called with his father on President Cleveland. The President chatted with the child awhile, and tonally the boy asked: "Have you got any little boys?" "No," replied Mr. Cleveland. 'Nor no little girls?" "No." "Goodness gracious!" exclaimed the boy, "what a nice, quiet, peaceable time you must have!" "Washington Critic. A Good Hint. Texas Sittings.

The man who tells the truth when he says he never tasted liquor. The temperance lecturer who is willing to talk for the good of the world when there is no cash in view. The minister who gives all his marriage fees into the missionary fund. The female who doesn't think every woman but herself looks like a fright when wearing a big bustle. The lawyer who can not lie without blushing. The oldOiiaid who never cried herself to deep because she never married. A Heart Trouble. "John, dear," said the young wife, looking up from the paper she was reading, "I see that people carry chestnuts in their rockets to cure rheumatism." "Yes, dear." 'Is it customary to carry things in the pocket to cure disease?" "It depends upon whether the person afflicted is superstitious or not." "Because when sewing a button on your Test, yesterday, I discovered a quantity of cardamom seeds, cloves, coffee beans, flag root, and other things in one of the pockets. 1X you carry them as remedy? Is anything the matter with you, dear?" "Ye-es, my dear." said John, stammering and turning as red as a lobster; I I think I tare a little heart trouble." ITwrieUow," she said, as the tear came
to her eyes; "and you never told me a word about it." SOCIAL. GOSSIP.
Nature will lie buried a long time, but will revive on the occasion or temptation. The most cross-grained are by no means the worst of mankind; or the humblest in station the least polished in feeling. Gcod-nature, like a bee, collects its honey from every herb. Ill-nature, like a spider, sucks poison from the sweetest dowers. Julian Hawthorne in a recent article quoted the following bit of subtile verse, by the late Richard Monkton Miiner, which had not been published before : E. L. God kin declares in the Nineteenth Century that the American voter "listens with extreme patience to anything which has the air of instruction." It is hardly worth while to go abroad in search of hnman suffering when hundreds of women in New York, accordine to Labor Commissioner Peck, are toiling for twelve and a half cents a day. Mr. Charles Crocker has given $38,000 toward the erection of a home for the Boys' and Girls' Aid Society of San Francisco. Senator Fair gave $10,000 to buy the lots on which the home is to be built, IVesident Eliot of Harvard cheerfully says of student morality that drunkenness has decreased very decidedly, the sense of personal honor has strengthened, and that athletic sports have a tendency to combat the vices that are born of luxury and self-indulgence. A recent novelty in New York society circles was a "Dacotah Tea" given by the Linten Indian League. The special object was to obtain funds in order to increase the work of the society among Dacotah Indians. The young ladies who assisted at the table appeared in Indian costume. Indian decorations were used. "Science" presents in its current number, the report of the American Ornithologists' Union for the protection of birds, together with the alarming statement that unless immediate measures are taken to prevent the present rate of destruction, our woods and fields will soon be without birds. They plead for financial aid in order to put these measures in operation. Mis. Lamb contribues to the March number of The Magazine of American History an interesting sketch of the old Van Corslandt Manor House, accompanied by some admirable portraits and engravings of the interior. She recalls the story that the old house has a haunted chamber, and more than that, a ghostly coach and four which at intervals rattles up to the door and then dissapears silently into the darkness. The enterprising Mexican Tress Association has determined to promote the scheme of celebrating the four hundredth anniversary of the landing ot Columbus by holding a great American exposition in the City of Mexico. A monthly journal is to be Issued, which will be devoted to the advocacy of the exposition. This journal will be printed in Spanish. French, English and German, and will be distributed all over the world. But where to find that happiest spot below. Who can direct, when all pretend to know? The fchuddering tenant of she frigid zone Boldly proclaims that happiest spot his own; Extols the treasures of his stormy seas. And his long nights of revelry and ease; The naked negro, panting at the line. Boosts cf his golden Bands and palmy wine, Baj-ks in the glare, or stemä the tepid wave, And thanks his gods for all the good they gave. Suih is the patriot's boast, where'er we roam; His first, best country ever is at home. Oliver Goldsmith. Messrs. Harper Bros., lately received a letter from a lady, who wrote that she was dyinjr. and that her physicians told her she would be dead before the conclusion of Mr. Howell's story "Indian Summer," now running in the monthly. iShe was verv much interested in it and did not wish to die until she knew how the tale was going to end and she begged the editor to let her read the advanced sheet3 that she might die happy. In the Baptist Theological seminary, aj Richmond, Ya., a number of young colored nwn are studying with a View of going as missionaries to Africa. This is a fortunate circumstance in view of the fact that in the recent discussion of the affairs of the Congo mission the Baptist ministers decided that the climate makes the field dangerous for white men, but that black men can stand it. Congo is a hard held of labor, and if these voung colored brethren can work it they are brave fellows. From General Buell's "Shiloh Reviewed" in the March Century we quote as follows: "Nowhere in history is the profane idea that in a fair field fight, Providence is on the side of the strongest battalions, more uniformly sustained than in our Civil War. It presents no example of the triumjh of 15,000 or even 20,000 men against 25,000. It affords some such instances where the stronger force was surprised by rapid and unexpected movements, and still others where it was directed with a want of skill against chosen positions strengthened by the art of defense; but nowhere else. The weaker force is uniformly defeated or compelled to retire." LITTLE FOLK'S SAYINGS. A little Scotch boy, on being rescued by a bystander from the dock into which he had fallen, expressed great gratitude, saying, "I'm so glad you got me oot. What a lickin' I wad have frae my niither if I had been drooned!" "Mother," said a little girl to her parent, who takes a great interest in charitable institutions, "I wish I were an orphan." "Why so, my dear?" "Because I should see more of you, for you are all the time going to the orphan asylum." A little girl, very much excited, rushed into the parlor, which was full of company, and exclaimed: "Mamma, just think of it." "Think of what, darling?" "Our cat has a whole lot of twins and I didn't even know she was married." A Fennsylvania school-teacher gives the following from the pen of her youngest and brightest scholar, written in answer to the request: "Write in twenty words a definition of 'Man.' " It reads thus: "Man is an animal that stanas up; he is not verv big, and he has to work for a living." Philadelphia Call. In a Buffalo household in which the "Mikado" is a favorite composition, a little ?irl came down stairs the other day and asked her aunt what dreadful things she supposed her still younger Bister put in her prayers. The aunt expressed her inability to conjecture, and the shocked little maiden replied: "She says, 'Oh, Lord bless the flowers that bloom in the spring, tra la.' " Buffalo Courier. "Gran'ma," said a boy of nine yean, "how old are you?" "About sixty-six," said the grandmother. "You'll die soon, won't you, gran'ma?" "Yes, dear, I expect to." "And when 1 die, gran'ma, can I be buried side of you?" "Yes, dear," said she, as her heart warmed toward the little one, whom she folded closer in her arms. "Gran'ma," sottly whispered the little ropue, "gimme 10 cents." Clinton Bugle. Ilia Lips Slipped. Hartford Times.) Mrs. Hamilton II err 's little girl, Cookoo, went to Delmonico's dancing class, and one day little Freddie Smith kissed her. "Oh, Cookoo, I'm ashamed to think you should let a little boy kiss you!" said her mother "Well, mamma, I couldn't help it," said Cookoo. "You couldn't help it?" exclaimed her mother. "No, mamma. You see Freddie and I were dancing the polka. Freddie had to stand up close to me. and all at once his lips slipped and the kiss happened. Belonged to the Matinee. f From the Detroit Free Press. My little girl Is very fond of going to church. She is nearing the thoughtful age of six, and she asks me a good number of questions about things in general, and among
others about church-going. She found out not long since that people "belonged to churches, some to this one and some to that, and her idea seemed to be that people picked out their churches principally on account of the fine organs, or of the architectural beauties of the interior. At present I think the church that had the handsomest stained glass-windows, or the best-toned organ would secure that little girl's membership. She said to me the other day : "Papa, do we belong to a church?" "I don't think we do yet." "Oh," she answered, "1 know. We belong to the matinee, don't we, papa?" "Why, Certainly. Cincinnati Volkesfrcund.l Mother: "Ella, go to bed. Say good nieht to the governess and give her a kiss." Elia: "No, mamma. I don't want to give her a kiss." Mother: "And why not?" Ella: "Because when any one gives her a kiss she boxes their ears. Ask papa if she doesn't. CURIOUS, USEFUL AND SCIENTIFIC.
Colonel Byrne, surgeon in charge of the hospital at the Soldiers' Home in Washington, has extracted from the neck of an old soldier a ball which had been there since the battle of second Bull Run, and was well encysted. Beavers on Fall Creek, near Wellington, Kansas, have cut down 100 trees this winter, some of them eighteen inches in diameter, floated some of the logs nearly a mile down the stream, and built a complete dam across the creek. Select several cards of different colors, and in the center of each fasten by a little mucilage a small, round piece of black paper. Place over the card thus prepared a piece of thin white tissue paper. The variety of hues which the black assumes is very amusing. In his lecture before the Boston Scientific Society the ather evening Dr. Kneeland gave the latest prices for wives among the Santhal people. If the woman is young and pretty the husband must nay to her relatives from $3 to $5. Divorced women are quoted at about $1.50 and widowo at seventy-live cents each. A French journal calls attentiou to the rich oil contained in the grains of the tongyeou. a tree which grows in China. This oil is easily extracted by pressure, has a density of 0.9302, and possesses a variety of curious properties. It dries more rapidly than any other known oil, it has also the power of solidifying under the action of light and out of contact with the air. The prevention of decay in wood is said to be effectively accomplished by exhausting the air from the pores and filling them with a gutta percha solution, a substance which preserves the wood alike from moisture, water, and the sun. The solution is made by mixing two-thirds of gutta percha to onethird of parafine, this mixture being then heated to liquify the gutta percha, when it is readily introduced into the pores of the wood, the effect of the gutta percha being, when it becomes cool, to harden the pores. The green color which sometimes affects American as well as European oysters has formed the subject of a late special investigation by a microscopist at the Smithsonian Institution. He finds that it is the minute blood cells which become tinged with green, and that these tend to lodge in the heart and gills in numbers great enough to give a green appearance. The coloring matter which may be vegetable or an abnormal product of digestion, is entirely harmless, and in no wise due to a copper tincture, as is popularly supposed. SENTINELS.

A golden ashbox is a rarity, and so one finds himself interested in this bit out of Meignan's "From Paris to Pekin.' Says this writer: "I will refer to the cigar-ash receptacle, where the smokers in the salon drop the ends of their cigarettes, according to the Russian custom, after a meal, composed of a pure nugget of gold worth 1,000 sterling, and just in the rough state in which it had been found in the mine. The Crar has permitted, in an exceptional case, M. Kousnietzof to retain possession of this nugget in his house on account of the rarity of such a godsend. The proprietor of this treasure did not omit to inform me that, having had this precious receptacle for thirty years, he had lost not merely the 1,600 sterling, but also the interest 2,400 and that consequently this luxury had cost him 1,000." Sent to Prison. Special to the Sentinel. Plymouth, Ind., March 12. The defendant's motion for a new trial in the case of the State vs. David F. Shokes was overruled this morning, and the defendant sentenced to three years' imprisonment in the Michigan City Prison. He bore the sentence calmly, and was taken north on the noon tram. Every Woman Knows Them. The human body is much like a good clock or watch in its movements; if one goes too slow or too fast, so follow all the others, and bad time results; if. one organ or set of organs works imperfectly, perversion of functional effort of all the organs is sure to follow. Hence it is that the numerous ailments which make woman's life miserable are the direct issue of the abnormal action of the uterine system. For all that numerous class of symptoms and every woman knows them there is one unfading remedy: Dr.. Pierce's "Favorite Prescription," the favorite of the sex.
WHAT WARNER S SAFE GÜRE CURES,
And Why Congestion of the Kidneys, Back. Ache, Inflammation of the Kidneys, Bladder or Urinary Organs, Catarrh of the Uladder, Gravel, Stone, Drepay, Enlarged Prostate Gland, Impotency or Gen- . eral Debility, Bright' Disease. WHY? Because it is the only remedy known that has the power to expel the uric acid and urea, of which there are some 500 grains secreted each day as the result of muscular action, and sufficient if retained in the blood to kill six men. It is the direct cause of all the above diseases, as well as of heart disease, rheumatism, apoplexy, paralysis, insanity and death. This great specific relieves the kidneys of too much blood, frees them from all irritants, restores them to healthy action by its certain and soothing power. IT CURES ALSO jaundice, enlargement of the liver, abscess and catarrh of the bile ducts, biliousness, headache, furred tongue, sleeplessness, languor, debility, constipation, gall stones, and every unpleasant symptom which results from liver complaint WHY? because it has a specific and positive action on the liver as well as on the kidneys, increasing the secretion and flow of bile, regulates its elaborating function, removes unhealthy formations, and, in a word, restores it to the natural activity, without which health i3 an impossibility. IT CURES ALSO Female Complaints, Leucorrhaa, Displacements, Enlargements, Ulcerations, Painful Menstruation, makes Pregnancy safe, prevents Convulsions and Child-Bed Fever, and aids nature by restoring functional activity. WHY? All of these troubles, as is well known by every physician of education, arise from congestion and impaired kidney action, causing stagnation of the blood vessels and breaking Gown, and this' is the beginning and direct cause of all the ailments from which women suffer, and must as surely follow as night does the day. WHY Warner's Safe Cure is acknowledged by thousands of our best medical men to be the only true blood purifier, is because it acU upon scientific principles, by striking at the very root of the disorder by its action on the kidneys and liver. For, if these organs were kept in health all the morbid waste matter so deadly poisonous if retained in the body is passed out. On the contrary if they are deranged, the acid3 are taken up by the blood, decomposing it and carrying death to the most remote part of the body. WHY 93 per cent, of all diseases which afilict humanity, arise from impaired kidneys, is shown by medical authorities. Warner's Safe Cure, by its direct action, positively restores them to health and full working capacity, nature curing all the above diseases herself when the cause is removed, and we guarantee that Warner's Safe Cure is a positive preventive if taken in time. As you value health, take it to avoid sickness, as it will at all times and under all circumstances keep all the vital functions up to par. We also guarantee a cure and beneficial efTect for each of the foregoing diseases; also that every case of liver and kidney trouble can be cured where degeneration has not taken place, and even then benefit will surely be derived. In every instance it has established its claim. AS A BLOOD PURIFIER, particularly in the spring, it is unequalled, for you can not have pure blood when the kidneys or liver are out of order. Look to your condition at once. Do not postpone treatment for a day or an hour. The doctors can not compare records with U3. Give yourself thorough constitutional treatment with Warner's Safe Cure, and there are yet many years of life and health assured you. WANT THE BALLOT. Chicago Ladies Demand That Their Nain be Placed Upon the Registry Roll. Chicago, March 10. An interesting feature of the registration under the new city election law yesterday was the attempt of several members of the Englewood Women's Suffrage Association, and the Wonian's Rights Club to have their names entered upon the books in order that they might vole on election day. The first, attempt was made by Miss Dr. Adeline A. Rowe, In company with Miss Bassett, seventy-six years old, who voted in Minneapolis and Massachusetts, in school elections, and Mrs. Pellon. Together they walked to the polling place of the Sixteenth Precinct and stated their desires. The Judges informed them that under law women were disqualified. Miss Rowe contended that under the constitution of the United States they were citizens. She then quoted Article 4, Section 2, of the constitution, and Article 4, Section 1. of . amendments, to sustain her claim. The election Commissioners were telephoned to, and they instructed the Judges to obey the law. Unsuccessful in their attempt, the lady suffragists returned to their homes. At the Fifteenth Precinct a party of comely matrons and maidens, led by Dr. Alice Stockham, President of the Woman's Rights Club, demanded that their names should be put upon the roll. They met with the same refusal, and retired without argument. Dr. Rowe was seen soon after the refusal to allow her to place herself on record. She said that she did not claim the right under the State of new elestion law to register or vote, but under the Constitution of the United States. She did not expect to be successful. Thtj had nothing to complain of, for really all that was intended was to make a test case and carry the matter to the Supreme Court. "The State law is wrong," she continued, "and must be changed." Mrs. Stockham said that a meeting would probably be held in a short time to decide upon a further course of action, and adopt some plan of making up; a test case. "We have dragged our skirts in the dirty mire of politics," said the energetic President of the woman's rightrrs, "and I can not see that we are any the worse for it" She did not claim that the Government would be any better by reason of women voting, but it was their right under the law, and she hoped the society would keep at it until their aim was achieved. An luipottant Arrest by Chicago Pollcemen. Chicago, March 10. The police made an arrest yesterday which resulted in the finding of an unexpected treasure, and will probably lead to important developments. For some time past they have been looking for one James Ryan, who is described as a variety actor, petty thief, etc Yesterday evening he was arrested as he was leaving a pawn shop, in company with a well-dressed young man, who said his name was Charles E. Monell, Both men were taken to the Harrison Street Station and searched. Nothing of note was found on Ryan. Monell had a new gold watch in his pocket, and exhibited such marked signs of uneasiness over the searching process that he was literally stripped to the skin. For defense against the inclement weather he wore three undershirts, and between two of them had secured a pouch containing $33 in gold coin. After removing all of Monell's clothing the officers found tied around his . body a small sack made of a silk handkerchief, which was filled with, ft rich
lot of diamonds, sapphires and other precious stones. Some of these gems were set in new gold bands, but most of them were loose. When asked to explain how these valuable stones came into his possession, Monell made several contradictory statements. First he claimed to have bought them in New York; then he said he was an actor and had purchased them at various times from brother professionals who were in hard luck, and finally that he had secured them at a bargain in San Francisco from a man who had just arrived from Australia. The police found that Monell had pawned a new gold chain worth $50 for $5. From this and the fact that the setting of the jewels found on Monell's person were new, the police argue that the whole lot was stolen from some jewelry store. Several dealers in precious stones were !called in to appraise the rind, and placed the value at $3,500 to $1,000. Monell is about twenty-seven years old, wears a small dark moustach, and uses his tongue with remarkable fluency. Both men are held to await investigation which will be instituted.
live Men Killed by the Explosion of a Tug; In Boston Harbor. Boston, March 10. The tug John Market left her berth at "T" wharf at G:30 o'clock this morning and started down the harbor in search of vessels desiring her services. There was a large number of persons on the wharf who watched the boat steam away. Just as she arrived off Long Island an explosion occurred on board, the noise of which was plairlv audible in this city. The boat was blown completely to atoms, and her crew of five men were instantly killed. The crew consisted of Captain Cyrus A. Nickerson, who resided on avenue 37, London street, East Boston ; engineer.George Crocker; Frank Crocker, fireman ; Albert D. Smith, cook, and James Hodkins, deck hand. The bodies of the captain and engineer were recovered by tugs that were erasing in the vicinity. They were brought here and taken to the morgue. The boat was built in Philadelphia about twelve years ago and plied in Philadelphia waters until eight or nine years ago, when she was bought by Captain Nickerson, a man named Sprauge and another person. 1'rosecntiDg Graveyard Insurance Companies. Colcmeus, O., March 13. The State Insurance Commissioner is engaged in making war on what he terms the graveyard insurance companies of the country, which are doing business in Ohio contrary to law and without having be?n admitted to do business in tue State. He has succeeded in having quite a number of the ofliceri and agents of the companies bound over, and by tbe aid of the Attorney General is pushing them to close quarters. The latest arrctst is that of J.

Attempted to Kill Her Child. Lafayette, Ind., March 13. Mrs. Belle Evans, a young married woman, has suddenly become insane. In one of her freaks she concieved the horrible idea ot oäering a sacrifice, and seizing her four-months'-old infant, undressed it, and was about to carry out her intention when the fortunate arrival of her father-in-law put a stop to her plans. She then gave the child to Mr. Evans, Sr., since which time she has not asked about it. She has become violent at times, and the doctors have ordered her kept in custody until papers can be obtained for her admittance to the State asylum.- It is a very sad case. Pim Archer In the Fountain County JaiL. Washington, Ind., March 13.

Judge Hefiron has ordered him to be kept there until some other arrangements are made for his safe keopiDcr. He will likely be taken to the State Prison South to await his trial, which wiU be in Orange County, as Lynch's confession shows that the crime was commited in that county instead ot Martin as before reported. The only one of tbe murderers now at larjje is Bill Jackson, who Lynch says is somewhere in Missouri. Sudden Departure. Special to the Sentinel. Shelbyville, Ind., March 9. Ed Gaylor, who has been working in a saw mill at Morristown, twelve miles north of here, skipped out very suddenly the other day, and after his departure it was discovered that he had committed a criminal assault on Alma Shackles, a little orpan girl, nine years old, living with her uncle in Morristown.

Some of the Tributes to the Memory or the Late Vice President. Although more than three months have elapsed since the demise of Indiana's statesman and beloved sou, Vice Tresident Hendricks, memorials are still being received by Mrs. Hendricks from all parts of the country. Among the most recent testiraqnial3 to his worth is a memorial from the New York Pjoduce Exchange, elegantly bound in moroco, and printed in script type; also one adopted by the Detroit Board of Aldermen, in an elegant gilt frame 2x3 feet. It refers to the sterling character of the silent statesman in the most expressive langua;e. Handsome memorials with costly mountings have also been received from the Ohio Club and the Cincinrati Council. Besides there are beautiful testimonials from the United States Senate, the citizens of Meriden, Miss. ; Cook County Democratic Club; Young Men's Democratic Club, Albany, N. Y.; Houäe ot Representatives of South Carolina; Robert Emmet Club, Sacramento; Cook County National Veteran Association ; City of Cheyenne: Territory of Arizona; Citizens of Stanton, Mass.; Democratic Continental Club of Philadelphia; Mexico Board of Trade; Democratic Legion, Buffalo; Angonquin Club, Chicago; Atlantic Chamber of Commerce, and National Democratic Clab, Cook County. Mrs. Hendricks has received a photograph of the interior of a hall in Columbus, Kan., heavily draped in mourning in honor of the distinguished dead ; also, a picture of the Government building in Grand Rapids, Mich. A center table in one of the parlors in the Hendricks residence is covered with letters of condolence and pieces of poetry, which Mrs. Hendricks prizes highly. She expresses her heartfelt thanks to all of the persans from whom she has received these testimonials, and has endeavored to inform each an 1 every one of this fact by letter, although it is a tremendous task. Pimples, Boils, And Carbuncles result from a debilitated, impoverished, or impure condition of the blood. Ayer's Sarsaparilla prevents and cures these eruptions and painful tumors, by removing their cause; the only effectual way of treating them. Ayer's Sarsaparilla has prevented the usual course of Boils, which have pained and distressed me every season for several years. G. Scales, Plainville, Mich. I was badly troubled with Pimples on the face; also with a discoloration of the skin, which showed itself in ugly dark patches. No external treatment did more than temporary good. Ayer's Sarsaparilla effected A Perfect Cure, and I have not been troubled since. T. Yf. Boddy, River St., Lowell, Mass. Iwas troubled with Boils, and my health was much impaired. I began using Ayer's Sarsaparilla, and, in duo time, the eruptions all disappeared, and my health was completely restored. John R. Elkins, Editor Stanley Observer, Albemarle, N. C. I wa3 troubled, for a Ions time, with a' humor which appeared on my face in ugly Pimples and Blotches. Ayer's Sarsaparilla cured me. I consider it the best blood purifier in the world. Charles II.

Best in thcarlcL We are now enabled to offer a Volume after volume lias been written about the character of HAMLET, PBINCE0F DENMARK. Artists have pictured it, poet have rhymed it, and actors have portrayed it upon the Ktasce and made themselves famous, but not, until now. has Ruch a truo aud artistic picture beeu offered at a prlco within the reach of all. In the foreground of the en?ravln? in seen Hamlet, in "inky cloak aud suit of solemn black." He stands close to fair and lovely Ophelia, the one he loved, but put away from his heart that he might let nothlug interfere with his motives of revenge- In this thrilling picture tliemj two form a study by themselves. Ophelia, Clingen? to Hamlet and her eyes raised to his, in wonder and fear for the passion CXfressed in his face, for while his face is urned toward her he is pointing to the play on the stage, and his countenance shows that the storm of passion is racing in his soul. On the mimic stasre is the cloaked and hooded murderer seen dropping "the cursed helenon" in the brother's ear with careful and malifrnant steadiness. Between Hamlet and this stage sit the puilty pair the Kin? and Queen. The Kln with every muscle ready to help him flee from before the sight, yet not daring to stir; the queen, with clenched hands, seeing only Hamlet and imploring him with her eyes to know what It all means. Thus three distinct groups are brought out with marvelous skill by the engraver, who haa made this picture so fine that Ft is worthy a place in the most elegant home.
