Failing Health Ten years ago my health began to fell. I was troubled with; a distressing Cough, Night Sweats, 1Veakness, and Nervous- ness.

I have used Ayer's Sarsaparilla, in my family, for Scrofula, and know, if it is teken faithfully, that it will thoroughly eradicate this terrible disease. I here also prescribed it as a tonic, as well as an alter- ative, and must say that I honestly believe it to be the best blood inediefne ever compounded.—W. F. Fowler, D. D. S., M.

I was under. the care of various physicians and tried a great many kinds Of medicines, but never obtained more than temporary re- lief. After taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla for a short time, my headache disappeared, and my stomach performed its duties more perfectly. To -day my health is com- pletely restored. —Mary Harley, Spring- field, Mass. I have been greatly benefited by the prompt use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla.

A physician once attended a patient who was suffering froma severe fit of indigestion. He found the Mind of the num in as great a chaos as his stomach.

"Oh, well," said the dear old doctor, "don't worry; it's there; it's- there fast enough.

"Clear and shining as the day," was the enthusiastic answer, "you were right, doctor." "And ,the matter with you, sir, was your stomach," was the sly rejoinder. If we carefully examine our mental states, we shall find that they rise or fall, become large or noble, or belting and cramped, as the body reniaine healthy and vigorous, or enfeebled and abnormal.

We have faith in the doctors, and expect that a drug will effect what we 'etre too indolent to do by following the simplest laws of health.

There are two tirnes in the day when thislis especially beneficial—in the morning, after a light breakfast, and Wore supper or dinner at night. Indoor life makes us lazy; and when that feeling of weariness and languor steals over us we want to stay in the house, curled up in some easy chair. But this is a dangerous thing to. do; this is the time of all times when we ought to be out of doors exercising vigorously. What if it does tire us? It will be a healthy weariness from which we may soon recover, and which is far preferable to that nerve weariness which drives all hope of rest far away. Riding and driving are good exercise, but hardly to be compared with walking. Prac- tice walking suitably dressed, and with thick -soled boots, beginning with a short distance and gradually increasing it. 'Even those delicate m bodymay finally be able to accomplish, very readily, half a dozen miles on a stretch, with short and frequent rests.

DOWN IN A CRATER. During Deed none in Ike Sew Zealand Volcanic Region. In the Hot Lake district of New Zealand scientific and sight seeing expeditiops have just penetrated to the very centre of the seat of the recent velcanie eruptions, and the accounts furnished to the press prove the terrific nature of the convulsion. Some of the parties have ascended Mount .lara- were, and have found that an • immense crater has been formed, from -which fis- sure some five chains in length extends for many mile,s in a southernly direction. The whole of the bed of Lake Rotomahana. has been transformed into a gigantic mud cal- dron, or, in fact, into a cluster of volcanic craters, the sites of Te Tanta, (the White Terrace), and Te Otukapurangi (the Pink Terrace) being occupied by mmiature but powerful volcanoes from which are emitted tremendous clouds of steam and occasional eruptions of mud and boulders, which for the most part fell back in the seething ori- fices. An inspection of the devastated country is an extremely periled undertak- ing, as mud avalanches are continual oc- 1currences, and the volcanic: slime is so tena- cious that an individual would be hopeless- ly entombed if his companions were unable to promptly extricate him. Walking in this mud proves very exhausting work, and the gannents become so quickly clogged with ' mud that first boots, then socks, and finnily ' the legs of trousers have to be abandoned to ; make locomotion possible.

Would it not be well to follow suit? We may not be able to join the Ap- palachian Club, but we can form clubs of our own—clubs of one, if need be. Along with the matter of walking comes that of other forms of physical exercise. Walking developes the • lower part of the bbdy much more than the upper. Some form of light gymnastics is necessary to strengthen the chest and arms. Dumb -bells or clubs will accomplish this. Better still, Dr. Forrest's "Home Exercises." This is simply a number of weights fastened to a rope running over a pulley, with handles at- tached. With this arrangement all the movements of lifting, pulling in and out, the "swimming stroke," etc., combo easily prac- ticed. Twenty minutes with this, twice a day, will .produee a wonderful effect for this exercise is especially good on stormy days when walking must be omitted. Much rr ore might be said on the question of exercise. It is not only a good thing, but a vital necessity, if the individual weuld be well. and were frequently in imminent clanger of perishing, and it was only through the per- sonal bravery of a half caste Maori, named Arthur Warbrick, that effective measures were eventually taken to rescue them from their dangerous predicament. This Arthur Warbrick subsequently descended into the crater on the site of the Pink -terrace, and his foolhardy feat is thus described by a local paper :—" We walk across a small stone strewn plateau, and before us lay a yawning chasm with precipitous sides. It was apparently about 80 yards wide at the top, and steam issued from countless cre- vices in the bottom and sides. Warbrick crawled cautiously to the edge, and lifter a minute's examination, declared that, though there was great risk of the sides of the chasm falling in, he would descend. A rope about 130 yards ling was produced, and made fast to an alpenstock, driven firmly into the mud, and Warbrick lowered himself over the precipice. To guard against the fumes of the sulphur and other gases which might possibly be met with at the bottom, he tied a handkerchief over his nostrils, and in a second or two a cloud of steam hid him from the gaze of the anxious watchers on top. The vibration of the rope showed that he was still pursuing his perilous descent, but presently the rope slackened and a cheer of " All right" came out of the steam. Then the cloud cleared away for a moment, and the intrepid halfcaste was seen standing at the bottom of the chasm. WAIST DEEP IN THE STEAMING MUD Tan MunplqUal.. ,9.ir, Eav. MA. Hapooeit A PROHAIMION IIJAnTY11. Bsiasvsts TO DE FouS(P, Public feeling is cryetallisinssagaiast John Arensdorf, the brewer, who is accused Of having murdered the ROY'. PeOrge C. Had- dock of Sioux City, Iowa. 'The eXpoenres respecting the mysterious disappearance of Henry Peters,' the brewery driver who par- ticipated in the conspiracy, end the sense,- tional suspicion of the neighbors that he was killed to insure his silence, made a pro- found impression, These facte had never been published, and they set the eoliDludidty to thinkin<,se NOW the almost universal verdict outside of the ealoon element is that Arensdorf will have great diffieulty in se- curing an acquittal unless he turns up the missing man, . Of the two men Who were seen running across the bridge toward the brewery after Dr. Haddock fell Peters was certainly one. " Wee Areusdorf the other ?" everybody is now asking, and ..inasmuch as 'Peters's absence can only lie explained by the brewery people, and is not, the answers can be surmised. • • Peters was an itinerant German, weak of character, and poor. 'There ,is every. reason to believe that he would have confessed if arrested, but he was never materially sus- pected of complicity until Leavitt turned state's evidence Then it was .eomi found that he had not been seer' for six weeks. Investigation does not relieve the suspicion of foul play. TwentY dayis'after the assas- sination he paid his board bill. That very night, tit a late hour, the neighbors heard an angry brawl at the rear of the brewery. It ended. suddenly, ' Peters never agadu re- turned to his boarding house, and the fol- lowing day a newdriver appeared on the brewery wagon. His effects were never claimed. He is said to have had a small de- posit of savings at one ef the banks, but the cashier decline's to deny or confirm the re- port. The brewery officials are very angry at the disclosures made, and claim that Peters left because his wages were reduced. They are unable to explain why he did not take his trunk and valise. Arensdorf says of the disappearance of Peters: "Peters had been taiking about leaving for some thne. When the injunction business commenced he made up his mind he would be out of a job here and would quit and get a job somewhere else. I had no fuss with him.. One Saturday, about Aug. 20, I think I spoke to him about the horses' shoulders being sore. I told him that the team had never had sore shoulders before, 1 1. • 1 to know so d that much as he did about horses should attend to them. He did not say anything, he went ; to the office and said be wanted his money. 'He got it and went away." Mrs. Sarah Wallace, who lives opposite the brewery, says: "It was the evening' of Aug. 24. I know that was the date because I wrote it down next morning. It was a hot night, and I got up and sat by the open window of the window upstairs. A little after the clock struck 10 I heard two men talking loud in the brewery. They seemed to be quarreling and made a noise like a lot of dogs. From the noise they seemed to come together, and then one of them said "Oh !" twice so loud one might have heard him as far as Pearl street. Then I heard 'groans that sounded fainter and fainter. After all was quite three men came out of the east door and walked to- ward the street. They were talking, and one of them stepped on a little dog; and the dog ran away yelping. The men walk- ed back into the brewery and called the dog Mrs.in. "Wallace says that the next morning she spoke to Mrs. Van Dugan about the noises in the brewery, and that Mrs. Van Dugan, who then lived next door, said that she and her husband had heard them. Joseph Taylor, a next-door neighbor Of Mrs. Wallace, says : "I can't tell the date. It was quite awile after the Haddock murder I was awakened by a noise. 1 at first thought that it was a charivari party. I Iwent out, and the noise had quieted. I heard two groans. They seemed to 'coine from the brewery. I listened awile, and, ' not hearing anymore, I went in and went to bed: The next day Mrs. Wallace told 'me what she had beard." , I Mr. Taylor said that the evening before he heard the groans he saw Henry standing on the beer waggon at the east door. He seemed to be quarreling, with seine one in - and round him played fumaioles and mud volcanoes. His nonchalance amid such ter- rifying surroundings induced others of the party to follow his example and descend. into the crater." Soon after these adven- turous spirits had ascended out of the crater a violent earthquake shoals was experienc- ed, and in a moment the place was enshroud- ed in dense volumes of steam. Then the , crater commenced to vomit forth columns of l heavy black smoke, and this was followed .New.

Every deer and window was fast, no vielence had been used, and the aeuteet detective was baffled. That la,' while the merchant wits firm in his belief that the house had been rohbed by outsider, the detectives emild find no evidenCe to - sustain him'. On the contrary, everything went to show that someilninate of the house WILS the offender. Besides the merchant and his wife, there was E4 clerk in the store, the wife's sister, a colored cook, and two colored servants. These three colored people rapt over the kitchen, far away, and could not for a mo- ment be suspected. The clerk had been in the merchent's employ for several years, and the only other one was a relative. It was therefore • nreoseDioa TO SUSPECT ANY ONE, end so no arrest was made. The incideot Ayes of course the talk of the family for the • next fortnight, and it had not yet been ,ownortihiett. when not -her surprise was sprung Again the merchant awoke at his usual hour to find that lie had'beenMysteriously . viiiited. again:. A roll of ills amounting to $185 had been taken from his trousers poc- ket, and the gold watch which he had bor. reived of his sister-in-law that very day was gone. Again the doors and windows were found all right, and agaiu the detectives were 'called in. This time they declared that one of the colored maids was the thief. She was questioned and cross-questioned, but no clue Was obtained, and in her indig- nation at being suspected of such a crime she left the house. The other servants would have gone, mo, had they not been frankly told that the merchant would as soon suspect his own wife as them. The clerk naturally felt embarrassed over the situation, and insisted on occupying a room at the store. Matters ran along for about three weeks, when one night SHORLTY AFTER MIDNIGHT, the merchant was awaxenea oy the voice of his sister-in-law, and he sprang up to find his wife absent. It was explained that she had gone down stairs, and the husband hastily threw on his clothes and set out to find her. It seemed that the sister-in-law secretly cherished a suspicion of one of the. servants, and each night after the last rob- bery, had been the last one to go to bed. : She had stretched a thread across the upper ; hall in such a way that it must be broken by any one passing. and the breaking must alarm her. he was asleep when the signal Icame, but she got to her door in time to see the half-dressed wife descending the stairs. j The merchant found the kitchen door open, ; and he spent a quarter of an hour looking around before 1 LOSS OF MEMORY.. THE METHOD BY WHICH IT CAN' RE- GAINED., The loss of memory in the aged is a fam- iliar example, . says, Dr. M. L.

One of the worst features of such cases is the fact that an old person is not for is long time after decay has begun aware of it. am now treating a case of los of memory in a per- son advanced in years, :who did not know that his memory had. failed most remark- ably, vigorous effort to bring it back again, ang o -with partial success. ic methodpursued is to spcnd hours daily one in the morning and one in the evening, in exercising this famdty.

HIS WIFE WAS DISCOVERED. She then came from the direction of an open field, and though he spoke to her, ex- pressing his amazement at her actions, she passed by him without a word, her eyes wide open and looking straight ahead. He followed her into the house and upstairs, and she went straight to the bed and cover- ed herself up, and in a moment was as quiet as any sleeper. That it was a case of somnambulism there could be no doubt; that she was the burglar seemed to be certain when the merchant in- spected his clothing and found that he had again been robbed—this time of about $40. The wife was not awakened, and next morn- ing, when told of her adventure, she could scarcely credit his words. She could not remember of having had any dream about money or burglars, nor had she the remotest idea of how far she went from the house, or in which direction. She had pulled on her stockings and shoes before going out. These were inspected, and three or four burrs were found clinging to the stockings. NEAR A HOLLOW STUMP on the commons, and fully a quarter of a mile from the house was a large burdock. , Th.e. merchant egamined the stump, and there, carefully wrapped in a piece of bur- I lam, were his two watches and the lost money. The wife could not remember ever having noticed the stump, and she had cer- tainly never gone within fifty feet of it in ' her waking hours.. On two other occasions within the nextinoiith she get up and wand -1 ered over the house in her sleep, seeming to be in search of something, but not finding it. The habit of mania, or whatever it may be ' termed, then left her as suddenly as it came on, and she was not known -to walk again exoept in her waking senses "Mr. Hardup, it's a pity you couldn't follow the earth's example," said Mr. Cash - by to an impecunious frind.
