For more than four years I suffered untold agony, was reduced almost to a skeleton, and hardly bad strength to drag myself about. . All kinds of food distressed ono and only the most delicate could be digested at all. Within the time mentioned several physicians treated me without giving re. lief. Nothing that I took seemed to do any permanent good until I commenced the use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla, which bas produced wonderfupl results. Soon after commencing to take the Sarsapa. villa I could see an improvement in my condition. My appetite began to return and with it came tho ability to digest all the food WWI, to etrengtll Im- proved eadlt .day, and after a few months of faithful attention to your directions, I found myself a well woman,=able to attend to all household duties.

Pennington, df Chicago, the king of air -ships and aerial adventure, is again to the front. In three weeks' tulle a great hum..n bird, it is claimed, will sweep over the city in the direction of New York. with a great spoon„wheel whir/lug in front, two twirling tans ou either side, great flus on its back and to the side ; at the back au air rudder that steers to starboard and port, and be- low it a wide, thin slab that flaps at will lilt° the tail of a crawfish with the colic, and guides the ship up to dizzy heights or lowers it to thik level of lumbering locomotives and conveyances of a slow:'r speed . The redivivus of the Pennington air ship takes place at Chicago Heights. Here the air -ship com- pany has forty acres of broad, ex- pensive meadow -land, where there is plenty of room to boost the great artificial hawk, and to avoid any casualties if the wonderful artifice should go to darting about delirous• ly iu the manner of a lopsided kite. The Pennington Company has just finished its first building. Itis a queer, tall structure, paiuted rod, and is the only building on• earth devoted exclusively to the ivanufac- (Ore of air -ships. It covers 32,000 feet of floor surface and has the most wonderful, stupendous doors ever constructed. 'These doors are 58 feet high and 38 feet wide. A SEVENTY FIVE .MILE GAIT. The gigantic portals will be swung aside and the great inflated cylinder, that is to perforate the atmosphere at seventy five miles an hour and give the comtnon fowl of the air the hiccoughs as it rushes by, this great pot-bellied flamingo will be ushered out and sent up into air and headed for Now York City with a spirit of confidence that will make every railroad monopolist iu then land declare himself insolvent forthwith. The air ship factory is just coin. pleted and has many interesting sights within its walls. The main portion ie the Gargantuan berth of the groat buoyancy chamber, or in• fluted cylinder, which is 125 feet long with a mean diameter of 38 feet. In another shop is the car, which is aluminium metal, with cush• ion seats filled with hydrogen gas, and weighing altogether but 235 pounds. The dame sized car con- structed of ordinary material would weigh 1,880 pounds. Everything is relatively light. Tho great fin on the back is hollow aluminium] filled with hydrogen gas,and those to either side aro similarly made. The horizontal rudder, which raises or lowers the ship, in the manner of a bird's tail, and the perpendicular rudder which steer® it, are alao of aluminium and very light. THE MOTOR POWER. The motor powea consists of two bea.atiful little engines of alloyed aluminum. These engines each consist of four cylinders with four piston rode attached to a single cen• ter and acting with reciprocal power. Hydrogen gas is exploded by an electric spark. One engine weighs a minimum of forty five pouuds and has a maximum capacity of fifteen horse power. • These engines drive the great wheel of four spoons that bores through the air auger - like and draws the ship with it, while tho little fans to the sides elevate the ship or lower it. Everything is as light as possible, and all the different portions of the airship are at present in course of oonalt notion. "In about three or four weeks said. Tdward t!. ranaingtoa in his of toe yeetal,day►' • 41 a.hali iiaye the eilip completed, 1 Will RAI rap to Qhicago the Brat day and land on the Lake Front. �,'hera 1 shall set out for"New York City, thence to New Qrleane and over to the Pacific ooaat, and from San Francisco back 17 Chicago." Mr. Pennington said this with the nonohatanoe of a man who is talking about eroeaing the atreot. There is absolutely no doubt in hie mind but the airship will sail with- out a hitch or a falter. 1118. PENNINGTON SANGUINE OF 9U0 - ORBS. In his mind there are no "ifs" and "buts." The ship will sail. That is all there is about it. Mr. Pennington bus opera nine year of hie life to make the ship as it will appear shortly. He has studied every work, artiole, and magazine under the sun on aerial navigation, and has combined all the superior points of others' machines and elini ratted all the hindrances in the leuiungton air•ehip. The hydrogen gas in the great bloated pickle is not intended to raise the ship, but simply to render its weight nil. The little fano ort the side do the elevating, and the great wheel in front draws the ship forward, The present buoyancy chamber will lift two tons and a half. The oar attached immediately beneath will carry ten passengers. The airship theoretically is perfect. Every possible mechanism to lighten it and to overcome gravity and to lessen the atmospheric currents has been secured. Still, human credulity stands aghast when it is asked to put .a simple trusting belief in the claim that any man has ingenuity enough to rival the festhery creatures of the air. --- ------ A PERFECT COOK. A perfect cook never presents us with iudige.tible food. There are few porieot cooks and consequently indigestion in very prevalent. You can est what you like and as much as you want after you use l3urdock 13!uod Bitters, the net Ira) epeciti, for indigestion or dyspepsia in auy form. —Last week Mr. Wm. Trotter, stove•dealer, of Galt,. received in the way of trade, a second hand stove, which it is safe to say, is the oldest iu this section of the country. The stove was the property of Mrs. Wells, who resides on the McAlis- ter farm, IIespeler road. It is a square box stove, with an old fash ioned Dutch ° oven on top, and weighs nearly 700 lbs. Its sides are ornamented with the British coat of arms, and the ends with Prussian eagles. It bears neither date, nor maker's mime. In con- versation with Mrs. Wells our re- porter learned that her mother was born at Sugar Loaf Hill, U. C., in 1797, and was married to Jonathan Baker at "Little York” (now Tor- onto) then a mere hamlet, in 1817. Mrs. Wells' parents purchased the stove and a "grandfather" clock from a man, Oho had some years previously emigrated from Johns• town, Pennsylvania, paying there- for farm produce to the value of $155. The stove was at that time an old one, and it is quite likely was made before the Revolutionary war.. Mrs. \yells still •retains the ()lock, and would not part with it on any consideration. BABY WAS SICK. Dzaa.SIns,—My baby was sick with diernccet, and everything we tried fail- ed. But on trying Dr. 1''owler'e Extract of Wild Strawberry we found it gave prompt relief and very soon cured him completely. Mas J.4114 CLARK, Bloom&cid, Out. —A serious stabbing affray took place at Wroxeter the other day. W. Johnston perhaps, fatally stab- bed J. H. Cameron, who is keeping a boarding house in the Grand Central Hotel. He formerly occu- pied Johnst,on''s hotel, and there has been a•go,pddtsalof dispute between the two Hien over rent and furniture. On Thursday last about noon John- ston went to Cameion's and pressed for the payment of some furniture with Mrs. Cameron. During the dispute that ensued, Mrs. Cameron got a horse whip and proceeded to lay it prettty freely on to Johnston. M. Cameron came along to this time and ordered Johnston ofl' the premises, saydng that if he did not go off' he, Cameron, would help him off. It result - e1 • in a tussle, during which Johnston drew a knife and stabbed Cameron two or three times, hitting him in the breast and bringing the knife down to the left side, making two deep gashes in the lower part of the stomach. One wound is considered dangerous, but the other is more trifling. Cameron's hand was also badly cut. Dr. Smale was quickly on the spot, and immediate- ly ordered the arrest of Johnston, which was done at once. Mr. F. S. Srott being here at the time im- mediately put him under arrest, and put him under the care of Constable Paulen, who, rafter the magistrate's trial on Thursday evening, took hien to Goderich on Friday morn- ing to await his trial at the assizes. Mr. Cameron is as well as can be expected. The outcome is not known, but hie prospects are good so far for recovery.—E.rposilor correspondence.

The following is an exoot copy .of ti dood- went which is said to have linen found among the ancient manuscripts sent by Publius Lentulus, President of Judea, to. the Roman Senate "There lives at this time in Jude.a a man of siugular character, whose name is Jesus Christ.

"His forehead 1s smooth and his cheeks without a spot. His nose and mouth are formed with exquisite symmetry.

He is very modest, temperate and wise. What- ever this phenomenon may be in the end, he now seems to be a man of strange beauty and divine perfection, in every way surpass- ing the children of men."—Philadelphia Press. Is the Speech of Mau avid Monkeys the Same ? Prof. R. L. Garner, who has made many interesting experiments to determine the lan mage of monkeys and who has now gone to Mica to study the speech of the great apes as well as of the native Truman beings in the interior, has published many inter- esting accounts of our simian kinsmen. In the Forum for August he sums up the scien- tific results that he has obtained thus far in his original and interesting investigations of the origin of speech, and explains the nature of the experiments that he has gone to Afri- ca to complete. Prof. Garner's work was made passible only by the discovery of the pliOnogra h, which !to maintains is yet a very crude instrument for his use. He has so analyzed the speech of monkeys and of man as to convert the sounds of one into the other, and thus he thinks he has deter- mined the identity of them. He has gone far enough in his experiments to ask the interesting question, Does this not prove along the line of phonographic develop• mont our descent from monkeys ? 1-fo ex- plains in detail how by the use of the phono- graph lie has taken human sound and anal- yzed it, and found that its constituent parts are the sauce as the constituent parts of the speech of lower animals, particularly o` monkeys. The scientific value of these ex- periments has been attested by all who have made original investigations into the origin of language, including Dr. Alexander (1. Bell and Prof. William I). Whitney. "The present state of the speech of monkeys," says Mr. Garner, "appears to have been reached by development from a lower form. Each race or kind of monkey has its own peculiar tongue, slightly shaded into dia- lects, and the radical sounds do not appear to have the same meaning in different ton- gues. The phonetic character of their speech is equally, as high as that of children in a like state of mental development, and seems to obey the same laws of phonetic growth, change, and decay as human speech. It appears to me that their speech is capable of communicating their ideas t..at they are capabable of conceiving, 011, measured by the mental, moral and social status, is as well developed as the speech of man measured by the same units. In con- clusion I would say that since the sounds' uttered by monkeys perform all that speech performs, is made of the same material, produced by the same means, acts to the same ends and through the same media, it is as near an approach to speech as the mental operations by which it is produced are an approach to thought. If it can be shown that tliese mental feats are not thought, the samol process of reasoning could show that these sounds are not speech. If man derived his other faculties from such ancestry may not his speech have been acquired from such a source? If the proto- type of man has survived through all the vicissitudes of tirne, may not his speech likewise have survived? If the races of mankind are the progeny of the simian stock, may not their language be the pro- geny of the simian tongue ?" Assistance for browning Persona. Everybody may he called upon to afford assistance to drowning persons while the doctor is being sent for, and Prof. Laborde's simple method for restoring breath when all other means have failed deserves to be uni- versally known. Our Paris correspondent tells us that the other day at a watering - place In Normandy two bathers, a young elan and a boy, who were unable to swim, went out of their depth and disappeared. They were, brought 00 shore inanimate, and were taken to the village, Two doc- tors were sent for, but the young man gave no sign of life and they aieclared he was dead. M. Laborde, who was fishing at half an hour's distance, came up as soon as he heard of the accident. He ex- amined the body and frmnd that the ex- tremities were cold aurd the heart had stop- ped. Then taking hold of the soot of the tongue he drew it violently forward, giving a succession of jerks in order to excite tho reflex action of the breathing apparatus, which is always extremely sensitive. At the end of a few minutes a slight hiccough showed that the patient was saved. In addition to the usual restorative means, Prof. Laborde, in extreme cases, rubs the cheat with towels soaked in hot and nearly boiling water, although the skin is blistered by this. Inland Cities, Ghent, in Belgium, is built on twenty-six islands, which aro connected by eighty bridges, the city having as many canals as streets. Amsterdam, in Holland, a city of ten miles in circumference, is mostly built on piles driven into the sandy subsoil, but the flowing of the tide and the debris of the. Ainstel River has made ninety islands and the city has more canals than streets. The watery ways are traversed by over MO bridges, so that Amsterdam has earned the designation of the Venire of the North. Venice is built on eighty islands, great and small, which are connected by 400 bridges. There is not a carriage in the city. St. Petersburg is built on a peninsula and two islands, connected by several large stone bridges, and in snntmer by numerous bridges of boats, which, however, are re- moved at the first frost.—Boston Globe.

A0 IDAHOAN EATEN ALIVE IN THE PRESENCE OF HIS INVALID WIFE. William Easton, aged 65, of Boise City, Idaho, was eaten alive by two cinnamon bears -last week . He heard his hogs squealing, went out with a whip and struck at a black snout sticking out between two rails of the pen. A sudden snarl apprised him that he had encountered a bear instead of a hog and started to leave the pon to get a rifle. Before he had sue ceeded in getting over the fence a male bear ran around the pen and seized him by hie right leg. He screamed with pain and the animal released him. As quickly as his wound and his age would permit Easton hobbled to a smoke -house and tried to crawl through a win• dow. The bear pursued him and, seizing his hip, commenced to ravenously tear the flesh. Agonizing screams issued from the old man's lips. His invalid wife wheeled herself to a window, and when she saw what wag taking place she, too, commenced to shriek. Her husband, already terribly wounded, cried out : "Do not make a noise or you will be killed." A moment later he fell to the ground and another bear, a half- grown cub, joined the first animal in tearing at the prostrate roan. Mre. Easton, almost transfixed with horror, could do nothing to assist her husband. She heard him moan : "0, Lord, help me to bear this death. 0, God protect my helpless wife." At this point she became uncon- scious, and when she revived sire could see only fragments of her husband's body and clothing, while the bears were frolicking in the orchard. Four hours later Eas- ton's hired man came in from a hunt. He heard the wife's hor- rible story, and after a little search be found Mr. Easton's head, spine and thigh bones, but no other portions of the body. The poor man's face was not badly scarred, but his ears had been eaten off. The bears were speedily killed. BUSINESS ANNOUNCEMENT.
