Ayer's Sarsaparilla has been curing people right along for
nearly 50 years. That is why it is acknowledged to be the
sovereign Sarsaparilla. It is the original and the standard,
The record of the remedy is without a rival,—a record that
is written in the blood of thousands, purified by its power.
"I nursed a ladywlto was suffering from blood poisoning and must
have contracted the disease front her; for I had four large sores, or ulcers,
breakout on my person. I doctored for a long time, both by external
application and with various blood medicines; but in spite of all that I
could do, the sores would not heal. At last 1 purchased six bottles of
Ayer's Sareeparilla, thinking I would give it a thorough trial. Before the
six bottles had been taken, the ulcers were healed, the slain round and
natural, and my health better than it had been for years. I have been
well ever since. I had rather have one bottle of Dr. J. C. A;er'a Sar: apa-

It was late at night and an owl had
screamed on the roof.

"Yes, madam, it is a fatal mistake to
neglect your teeth. I lost a great deal
of money through an oversight of that
very sort. 1 had a rich uncle who prom-
ised to make me his heir. He went to
sea. During a sudden storm he fell over-
board, and a shark at once grabbed him.
My uncle was a stout man; the shark
was old. Moreover, he had never taken
care of his teeth, and they were wretch-
edly poor. In short, he couldn't hold on
to my uncle, who kicked himself loose
from the man eater and was picked up
by a boat."
"But how did you lose the money?"
"My -uncle lived long enough to alter
his will. Oh, that neglectful shark!" -

"It is probable," said the man who
knew something about such matters,
"that he got in the neighborhood of
$14.50."

people who held that he overestimated
the inventor's share. -Chicago Post.

GRATITUDE TO DI:WEY.
President 11icltinley's Message to Congress
Recommending Distinction.
Washington, 11'Iuy 10. -Fitting tribute
was paid by Congreus.yesterday to Com-
modore Dewey for tho magnificent vic-
tory he achieved in the battle of Manila
Bay.
A message from the President was
read, recommending that a vote of thanks
be extended by Congress to Commodore
Dewey and the gallant officers and men
of his command. Without a word of de-
bate and without a dissenting voice, the
Senate and House agreed to the resolu-
tion, carrying into effect the recommend-
ation of the President. Senator Lodge
presented and the Senate passed a resolu-
tion authorizing the President to present
a sword to Dewey and medals to officers
and men under hien who wore in the
battle at Manila. It appropriates $$10.000
for the purpose.
COMMODORE DEWEY,
By His Brevity and Race Kinship With
Naval Heroes of the Past Wins the
Thunderer's Praise.
London, May 10. -The comment on
the battle at Mauila, as the details come
in, is universally flattering to Commo-
dore .Dewey and tho American Navy. The
Times says: "The destruction of the
Spanish fleet was complete, a's complete
as any achievement recorded in naval
annals, Commodore Dewey showing him-
self worthy alike of the great traditions
of the United States navy and of his kin-
ship with the rano that produced Nelson."
The Standard remarks: "Commodore
Dewey has evidently taken as his model
for despatch writing that.laoonio British
sailor of famous memory who reported a
decisive naval victory thus: `Engaged
enemy yesterday. Captured ships es per
margin.' '
Tho Daily News says: "Commodore
Dowey's despatches, in their concise-
ness and modesty, are in accordance with
the best naval traditions. Tho battle
establishes a record among contests of the
kind, for one of tho combatants destroyed
the whole fleet of the other without bim•
self suffering any loss whatever. The
victors oarriod the whole job through in
a thoroughly workmanlike manlier. It is
especially worth noting that the discipline
of the American ships is reported to have
been perfect; for many Spanish authori-
ties and some independent critics thought
this might be a weak point on theAmer•
loan sido. The excellence of the Amorioan
Mottos and the superiority of the marks-
manship are likely to be a permanent
factor in this war. Tho chief lesson which
the battle of Manila enforces is what
everybody knew before, namely, that
under modern conditions of warfare, no
amount of porsont{l bravery can possibly
make up a deficiency in weight and large
metal.
Expecting News.
Washington, May 10: --Naval oiitoials

The Situation at Milan.
Rome, May 10.-A despatch was re-
ceived by the Premier, Marquis di ltu-
dini, yesterday afternoon, from Lieut. -
General nava•Beocar's, nommanding the
Third Army Corps, with headquarters at
Milan, where the most serious rioting
occurred, saying all is quiet, and adding
that the stores are ro opening.
Despatches from Naples say disturb-
ances have occurred at Antrod000, seven
and a half miles from Civius Ducale, the
rioters raising shouts for a civil war.
Disturbances are also reported to have
taken place at Aronaccla and at Monte
Calverio. At the hatter place the troops
intervened and a rioter was killed and
two soldiers were injured.
ONE THOUSAND KILLED.
Milan in the Throes of Revolution for
Two Days -Calvi Now Reigns.
London, May 10. -Tho Milan corres-
pondent of the Daily News, telegraphing
Monday, says:
"Calm reigns again. This being so, it
can do no harm to say plainly, though
it is by no moans certain the words will
reach you, that for the last two days this
city has boon in throes of revolution, with
all its horrors and all its sadness.
"It is extremely difficult to speak with
accuracy as to the member of killed and
wounded; and any estimate, in view of
the conflicting statements current, can
only approximate the truth. It may be
said at once that the casualities were
many times more numerous than could
at first have been believed, even by spec-
tators of the bloodshed. Probably it
would not be exaggerating to fix the
number of deaths as little short of one
thousand."

WHEAT FORTUNES,
Some or the Fortunate ones In the City!
of Montreal W. W. Ogilvie Clears
a Million Dollars.
Montreal, May 10. -Tho merchants
1esterday were counting their profits in
the venous wheat transactions of the
past tour weeks. It appears that besides
the tremendous net .gains of the two big
milling concerns, several small fortunes
have boon made as well.
Mr. W. W. Ogilvie is said to have had
1,500,t.a10 bushels 0f wheat ou hand, and
stands to make not less than $7b0,o00, or
perhaps a round million. These concerns
write oil two profits, the first on the
wheat and the second on flour. -
It also looks as if Mr. Robert _Meighen,
the ever -active and far-seeing President
of the Lake of the 'Woods Millin]; Cam •
pang, would. have to tell hie directors at
the next annual meeting that the soring
rise of 18115 had netted then[ from $300.-
000 to 8750,000 clear profit.
Mr. Hugh Mclennan comps next on
the lift, with a handling of a lntlli33
bushels of wheat, and profits an,nel ':i1g
to almost a quarter of a million dollar,.
Dante Rumor also says that Mr. Alex
MOFee has come out right side up to the
tune of from $130,0110 to $30,000.
Mr. A. G. 3Icl3ean has also scored
profits to the extent of 91 i,000, and, as
with the rest, no one appears to be sorry
for the talengarrian's good luck.
Mr..7ames Carruthers of Montreal and
Toronto has also had exceedingly good
fortune in wheat and oats, and a well -
versed gentleman chalked down $215,000
as the amount Mr. Carruthers had made.
Messrs. Bartlett, Frasier & Co. con-
stitute a Chicago firm, but they do their
shipping hero, and their profits will turn
out to be from $30,000 to $40,000.
Messrs. Lohrke & Co. have also made
about $20,000.
Messrs. Crane & Baird make very
little noise, but those who know say they
have not made a Dent less than $x5,000,
but perhaps $80,000 would be nearer the
mark.
The profits of the above-named firms
have been made in legitimate institu-
tions, delivery having, been made in all
cases. There have, however, boon several
cases of clear speculation where the dealers
came out on the right side.
Messrs. J. & C. Warrington's profits
in yesterday's rise alone reached $10,000,
while their total gains will not be a cent
less than $40,000
The Messrs. Warrington are cheese
dealers, but they take a shy at the Chi-
cago wheat pit at times. This week they
have made a bull's eye every time.
They Went Through the Ice in a Defile
Near Crater Lake.
San Francisco, May 10. -Word has
reached here that on Monday last the lee
covering a stream in a defile near Crater
Lake gave way under the passing throng
of 1 londikers and more than a soore of
men were precipitated into the water and
drowned. Dr. J. P. Frizoil of Los Ange-
les, who brings the news, passed the
scene only a few hours after the calamity
occurred. It was on the other side of the
summit, between Linderman and the
Long Lake, at a coin t in the canyon
some 14 miles above Stonehouse, where
an ice slide over a mountain stream has
been utilized as a path tor sleds. A num-
bor of men.were advancing in almost un-
broken rank, each hauling a heavily
laden sled, when there was a sudden
crash: The ice opened for 30 feet or more
land in an instant twenty-two men, with
their supplies, were whirled down and
under the surface of the stream to drown,
without oven the chance of battling for
life.
