A resident of the city must of necessity either make more or live on lees than the man who lives in the country, Food and clothing may be purchased as cheaply in the city, of course, but the farmer may raise many necessities, while the resident of the city must buy everything. Be must pay exorbitant rent, or if he buys land, the high price paid and the taxes will nearly equal rates of rental: he must buy the water he drinks, the wood he burns, he must•even pay a garbage man for removing the ashes; he must' buy fruit, vegetables and meat at double the price the farmer receives for them;. be must buy high priced clothing in order to keep up with the times; he secures little sunshine, less frean air,and lives under a nervous pressure that early breaks down the system and undermines his health. The tarmer on the other hand, is likely o at least have health, fresh air, sunshine, ;ood wholesdme food and appetite, and .sill live longer.—San Francisco, 8-d ring is full of terrors to all whose oon- ititution is not able to resist the sudden ,hanges of the temperature and other in- +alubrities of the season.

I became weak, nervous, was unable to look after my interests, and manifested all the symptoms of a de- cline. I took three bottles of Ayer's Sarsaparilla, began to improve at ones, and gradually increased my weight from one hundred and twenty-five to two hundred pounds. Since then, I and my family have used this medicine when needed, and we are all in the best of health, a fact .which we attribute to Ayer's Sarsaparilla.

If a Stan who owns a farm upon which be can make a living and who has a good wife and Family is not happy, he would not be, were he in hnainess in acity, where the chances for sucoosa are not so great and where the sanitary conditions are -never so goodas they are in the country. A resident of the city must of necessity either make more or live on lees than the man who lives in the country, Food and clothing may be purchased as cheaply in the city, of course, but the farmer may raise many necessities, while the resident of the city must buy everything. Be must pay exorbitant rent, or if he buys land, the high price paid and the taxes will nearly equal rates of rental: he must buy the water he drinks, the wood he burns, he must•even pay a garbage man for removing the ashes; he must' buy fruit, vegetables and meat at double the price the farmer receives for them;. be must buy high priced clothing in order to keep up with the times; he secures little sunshine, less frean air,and lives under a nervous pressure that early breaks down the system and undermines his health. The tarmer on the other hand, is likely o at least have health, fresh air, sunshine, ;ood wholesdme food and appetite, and .sill live longer.—San Francisco, 8-d ring is full of terrors to all whose oon- ititution is not able to resist the sudden ,hanges of the temperature and other in- +alubrities of the season. To put the ,yatem in condition to overcome these vile, nothing is so effective as Ayer's Sar- saparilla. Take it now. The Wallaceburg Herald recently offered aprize of a gold fountai i pen for the best humorous composition written by a boy or girl under 16 years. It was won by Arthur Clancy, son of Mr James Clancy, P: M. The remains of Mrs James Wheliban, who died in Port Austin the.other day, were brought to Lucan and interred in ,ruduc F>u townbhap.

OVERWORK —nMUCED— Nervou's Prostration Complete Recovery by the Use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla " Some years ago, as a result of toc close attention to business, my health failed. I became weak, nervous, was unable to look after my interests, and manifested all the symptoms of a de- cline. I took three bottles of Ayer's Sarsaparilla, began to improve at ones, and gradually increased my weight from one hundred and twenty-five to two hundred pounds. Since then, I and my family have used this medicine when needed, and we are all in the best of health, a fact .which we attribute to Ayer's Sarsaparilla. I believe my chil- dren would have been fatherless to -day had it not been for Ayer's Sarsaparilla, of which preparation I cannot say too much."—H. O. Hixsot;Y Postmaster and Planter, Whard's, S. C.
