I at once started, and am pleased to state three boxes effected a o °triplet° mare, and I heartily recommend it to anyone suffering from Catarrh." • Horseless Carriages. The horseless carriage is making a bold effort to get included in the category of in- ventions that have- come into practical use in this century, which will probably be knonn in history as the Century of Inven- tion. Of course, there is still a disposition in some quarters to laugh at the innovation. But that is nothing. We ourselves or our pontemporaries have laughed at a whole host of things, which at their first introduc- tion was sufficiently odd to be provcoative of mirth ; and it is not yet a century since our fathers or grandfathers ridiculed the idea of travelling in vessels propelled by steam, or in trains drawn by engines with the same motive power. Tennyson, with the foresight for which poets are proverbial, long ago foretold the time, when the heav- ens will be filled with "commerce, argosies of magic sails," and when the nations will have "airy navies grappling in the:central blue." That time has not yet come—the secret of flyieg is nearly as much a mystery as ever; but, as regards locomotion on land, such progress has been made that in the not veey distant future we may all be able to travel in our own hornless carriages. In some parts of Europe, it is reported, the new vehicles have become popular and com- paratively cheap, and the novelty having worn off they are now being employed in a practical way. Here they are still regarded as curiosities, and the bad state of many of She roadways in and about New York are an obstacle to their immediate introduction into common use, but the bicyclists are everywhere exerting their influence to get concrete paths laid down'and thus, as well as in other respects, may be said to be pav- ing the way for a form of conveyance in which it will be more dignified and comfort- able to ride than sitting astride a wheel. The horseless carriage gives promise too of being of unlimited upe for businees purposes. One company in Brooklyn, it is stated, is even now engaged in constructing one for a large departmental store at a cost of $2,000, and if it Is satisfactory the understanding is that the concern will take fifty more. The working expenses it is reported are only fifty cents a day, which' is much less than it would cost to keep horses to drive the vehicle. • THE BEST OF RESULTS Always Follow the Use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Two Cases in Which They Restored Health and Strength After All Other Means Had Failed—What They Have Done for Others They Will Do for You. FROM TIIE COLBORNE EXPRESS. There are few if any people in MurraY. township, Northumberland county, to whom the rime of Chase is not familiar; Mr. Jacob Chase, who has followed the occupa- tion of farmer and fisherman and fishdealer, is especially well known. He has been a great sufferer from rheumatism, as ell his neighbors know, but has fortunately suc- ceeded in getting rid of the disease. To a reporter he rave the following partieulare. I had been a sufferer from rheumatism for upwards of twenty years, at times being confined to the house. At one time I 'was laid up for sixteen weeks, and during a por- tion of that time was confined to my bed, and perfectly helpleas. I had the benefit of excellent medical treatment, but it was of no avail. I believe, too, that I have tried every- medicine advertised for the cure of rheumatism, and I am sure I expended at least $200 and got nothing more at any time than the merest temporary relief. At last I was induced to give Dr. Williams' Pink Pillea trial, and from that time I date my good fortune in getting rid of the dis- ease. I continued using them for several months'and daily found that the trouble that had made my iife miserable fpr so many f, years was disappearing, and t last all traces of pain had left me and I as oared. I say cured, for I have not since had a re- currence of the trouble. - As proving the diversity of troubles • for which Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are a cure it may also be mentioned that they restored Mrs. Frank Chase, a daughter-in-law of the gentleman above referred to, to health and strength after all other meatus had apparent- ly failed. Mrs. Chase says :---41' I earl scarce- ly tell what niy trouble was, for even doc- tors could not agree as to the nature of it. One said it was consumption of the stomach, while another was equally emphatic in de - daring that it was liver trouble. One think I do know, and that is for years' was a sick woman. I know that I was afflicted with neuralgia try blood was poor, and I was subject tc: depressing headaches. My appe- tite was not good at any time and the least exertion left me weak and despondent. A lady friend who had been benefitted by the use of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills advised me to try them, and as the"' had also cured my father-in-law, I determined to do s�, and I have much came for rejoicing that I did, for you can easily see that they have ;made a wellevoman of me. I took the pills stead- ily for a couple of months, and at the end of that time was enjoying the blessing of good health. It gives me much pleasure to be able to bear public testimony to the value of this wonderful medicine." 1 Dr. Williams' Pink Pills cure by going to the root of .the disease. They renew and build up the blood, and strengthen the nerves, thus driving disease from the sys- tem.

LIT ISDEN & WILSON, SEAFOI011 : GENTL 'MEN : I think it is only fair to tell, You that I believe your "Royal Glyoerated Balsam 'of Fir" once saved me from going into a decline. I suffered from great pain in the lungs and bronchial tubes, and was reallyealtaid that I was to be a victim to that kiread consu ption. I was advised to try, and, did get a bottle of your Balsam, and it cured me entire y in a short time. I believe it is the; beat medicine for such troubles Shat can be got.Signed—DUNCAN CAMPBELL, Wa:lton. Another writes: :The "Glyeerated Balfour' of Fir" I gotirom yon proved to be the best cough medicine I ever had in my life. I never had anything to equal it. I was distressed by a very bad cough,' which had hung on hut for abieut three weeks, preventing my sleeping at nights. I only used one-third of the bottle, and am now ,completely cured. Signed—ANC US McDERMID. - -. - Another writes: Will you please send me halt i 4 dozen bottles of Balsam of Fir per express, at once. A bottle of this has been in my possession for some time.
