The Huron Expositor, 1896-11-20, Page 61 SPECIFIC FOR SCROFULA. "Since childhood,, I have been afflicted with scrofulous boils and sores, which caused me terrible suffering. Physicians were unable to help me, and I only grew worse - under their care. At length, I began _to take AYER S Sarsaparilla, a n d very soon grew bet- ter. After using half a dozen bottles I was completely CHITCI, so that I have not had a boil oi; pimple on any part of my body for the last twelve years. I can cordially recommend Ayer's Sarsa- parilla as the very best blood -purifier in existence" — G„ T. RErrmAnT, Texas.

HE RELATES THE NARROW ESCAPE OF HIS DAUGHTER. Weakened -and Run Down by the Oppres- sive Climate of India she Returned to • England -When her Father followed he Found her in a Serious Condition. From the Hampshire Independent. There is nothing :more interesting than the talk of our brave defenders, who have. served their Queen and .conntry in far- dis- tant lands. To talk with an Indian officer, hearing his reminiscences and adventures, is what those who have enjoyed it always ap- preciate. Consequently (writes a special re- porter- of the Hampshire Independent) I was delighted to 'receive instructions to in- terview Lieutenant -General Shaw, who has wen histspurs in India, and is now living, with hie family, in handsome retirement, at St. Panl's Vicarage, Shanklin, Isle of Wight. I had grasped the "bell -pull and given it one tug when the door opened, and the General stood before me. You knew he was a soldier at once. His manly, upright bearing, his smile, his pleasant voiceall told you that you stood in the presence of one of Nature's gentlemen; but, alas! he held a time -table, and I felt that the in- terview must needs be short. However, he ushered me in and at once put me at my ease by his affable conversation. "I am afraid," he said, 'that .you have, come a long distance ; but let me know the • precise object of your visit." I explained to the General that I was most anxious, with his consent, to obtain some personal explanation as to the -narrow escape I had heard one of his daughters had recently experienced. At last he brightened visibly. "You must know," he said, " I'm just a bit of an enthusiast on this point; but the tale is very short. My daughter came home from India, • <---‘-7:7'-'-"-na I je,le 4444;-.1 1 •\. • 100. — --e ' • , ri His Testimony Right to the Point -Cured by Dodd's Kidney Pills, BBIDGEwkrEit, N. S., November 16th. - (Special) -No business- man is better or more favorably known in this part of Nova Scotia than Mr. John S. Morgan, tinsmith, of this town. For eighteen years he -suffer- ed from one stage to another in the progress of kidney disease, but without help until he got hold of Dodd's, Kidney Pills. He tells the story in his own words; and says: "It comrnenced with backache about eighteen years ago, with lameness and.' pain in my limbs. • "I was under the doctor's care •several times, and took several remedies aside from doctor's medicine, but gradually name to be badly crippled up. "In the autumn Of ninety-four 1 began to run down in flesh and strength rapidly until I was about forty poimds under my usual weight. I was t hen•in constant misery from rheu- matic pain and the dread of passing urine, which was of a very dark color and caused me the most intense misery. . I yea ized my danger, but from something I read about Dodd's kidney Pills 1 made up my mind to use them, and commenced at once. • "I have used twenty boxes, have regain- ed my weight and. I am now as strong and well as ever before in any life. . "When I commended mine Dodd's Kid- ney Pills I was entirely unfit for the duties. and enjoyments of life,,and they have saved and prolonged it, I tient my testimony may be the means of doing good to others." • Real Nice. " I hear that your daughter, Mamie, is married, Mrs. Trott." " Yes, she is ; and she's got a real nice man." • " Oh, has she ? " "Indeed she has. I've been makin' them a little visit. and I tell you he does everything to make home pleasant for " That is good of him." "Ib is so. He gits up of a morning and builds the fire and gits his own breakfast and makes Mamie a '-cup of coffee and fetches it toher bed ey'ry morning before he goes down town." " Indeed?" " Yes, and of a Monday he gets the washing all started_a,nd some of , the things on the bee before Mamie is out ofi bed." - "That's nice for Mamie." "Ain't it, though? And that man sines ev'ry bit of the sweeping and marketing and he never bothers Mamie about his:hitt- tons, but jest sets down and sews tdiein on himself." "That saves Mamie a good deal." . - " 1 guess it (lees. Then when he comes home at night he does up all the supper dishes, while Mamie sets in the parlor ,and rocks or lays out in the hammock. I tell you, he's an,awful nice man. , He ain't go- ing to let Mamie kill herself worein'. Ile's real nice." • IN THE DARK VALLEY.. , "Dodd's Kidney Pills have Saved My Life " This is said by Thousands—Prevention the Safest. "In the valley and shadow of death "— " Given up to die." There are many thous- ands of such living in Canada to -day who say : " Dodd's Kidney Pills have saved my life." Nomatter to what stage the disease may have come, do not despair. Thelidurnph of Dodd's Kidney Pills has been won in ex- actly such fights for life. People make mistakes, andjump to wrong conclusions; doctors themselves don't al, ways know. It is much safer to take Dodd's Kidney Pills than to take chances. Of course these grave cases have simple begin- ninge, and that is the timethat a single box prevents, which is better than curing, • School Reports. • No.2 HAY. -The October report Of School Section No, 2 Hay, is as folloWs.i Names are in order of merit .Fifth, -J.

She had rheumatic and neuralgic pains; she was perfectly bloodless, listless and in a generally weak and pros- trate condition. A doctor was seen, but she remained absolutely colorless, was in great wretchedness and suffering from anaemia or bloodlessness. She had a kind of fever'nervous headache, and She had Elkind-of fever, nervous headache, other pains. Well, I, heard , of De.. Wil- liams' Pink Pills for Pale People. My daughter took Some, and the first box had,e, marvellous effect. She regained her color, lost her pains, and became altogether differ- ent. She -had quite a glow upon her. She went on taking the pills, and I am glad to tell you that she recovered completely. I have recommended Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, to all with whom I came in coutact, and all who take them derive great benefit there- from. ,"I have a sister at Jersey, and she has taken them ,for a very long time, and has always recommended them to other people, and found them to do a great deal of good to all to whom she has recommended them; and I myself when I have heard of people being ill, --have taken them or sent them some of these -pills." . Dr. Williams' Pink Pills directly enrich - and purify the blood, and thus it is that they are so famous for the cure of anaemia, rheumatism, scrofula chronic erysipelas,and restore pale and sallgc>va complexions_ to the glow of health; Tlahr are also a splendid nerve and •spinalqpie, and have cured many cases of paralysis, locomotor ataxia, neuralgia, St. Vitus' dance and nervous headache.

There is an Irish 'porter employed in a large commission house in New York, one of the kind that will make a witty eply to any sort' of question. He is very fond of expressing his views in general and has: great admiration of his arguments.. If be fails to get a listener he will talk to himself in lieu of something better. A member of the firm being annoyed one day at his con - Stant muttering which he was unfortunate enough to hear, sent for him. " See here, John, did it ever occur to you that your constant talk and i- muttering is a great annoyance to people that happen to be around ?. Why on earth do you chat- ter away to yourself anyhow ?" , " Shure I have two reasons fer doin' that." " Two reasons ! Well, what are they ? " One of them is that I loik.e to talk to a sensible man and the other is that I loike to near a sensible man talk." • Sandy and the Telephone.

After some conver- sation regar&ing_the alleged grievance the factor returned to the outer room to give Sandy his subordinate's reply. The farmer, however, was not satisfied, but demanded to see the under -factor that he might have it out with -him in his chief's presence. "See him ?" exclaimed the factor; you can't see him, he's not here." "Na here," roared Sandy, who had never seen a tele- phone, " na here !

The Church of Irlela,nd Temperance Visitor ' print e the following allegations of a well-known Spanish journalist :— We already knew that the Spanish na- tion is the most sober nation in the world. The return which the gov_ernment has just presented' to the Cortes determines the mat- ter in a solemn, official, irrefutable manner, 'which excludes every kind of controversy. England raises in revenue from this source, £20,000,000 ; Russia obtains even more, £26,750,000 ; France secure -3 £12,620,000; Germany, :C7,120,000 Holland,:E20,800,000; Belgium, £1,320,000 ; Spain a little more than ;£60,000. Let it not be said that this consolatory inferiority arises from our gov- ernment obtaining the smallest revenue from this source. Even if, without burdening alcholic beverages with a heavy tax, our consumption is less than other nations, it is not hard for Spaniards to understand that it - would be still less -if our Finance Ministers were to increase the burden on this article; none of them have.done this, as they see it would result in failure. Finance ministers are gond, and best of all, in refusing to im pose a taxa if thetax offrrs no probable re- turn. LetItussia and England make the experi- ment -Of increasing their taxation on alcholic beverages, to see if the number of consumers would decrease. These foreigners will do without food and clothing, if necessary, but to do without drink -no, never ! Sobriety, especially in drink, is one of the distinctive Spanish qualities. Here we are spared the sight of people dragged through the streets by the dozen in the most advanced state of intoxication—a pic- ture frequently seen outside of Spain. Drunkards 'abound in France, Germany, Switzerland, and in almost all European na- tions, but in England and Russia, drunken- ness has taken- colossal proportions, which those who have never left Spain cannot easily imagine. - Walk on any Sunday through the streets of an English port, and you will see on all sides tottering groups of sailors, who sup- port one another, and, to say the least, ob- struct the path. Pass through London on the evening of a bank holiday and walk by St. James', where you will see, supporting one another in rows, those Life Guards,who, a short time before were shining resplend- ent in their brilliant uniforms. This does not happen among the poor alone, but it is to be seen among people of good social standing. While 1 was staying in England, in one of the first hotels, during a cold and rainy night, as there was no temptation to go out, I went after dinner to the smoke -room, where about thirty gentle- men were seated at a number of tables: No ladies were present, for in good Eng- lish hotels the ladies sit in a ladies' dra,w- ing-roore. I had scarcely entered when I observed a gentleman, who had been reading a news- paper before several empty glasses, suddenly roll on the flo r. 1 asked the waiter who aerved me to raise the man from the ground. The waiter replied, " We fish them all up together." .. He had no sooner spoken than another guest, who was playing cards with some friends, leaned forward, and fell as if dead. The indifference was so great that his friends continued playing without throwing a glance at him. Afterwards another fell at the opposite side of the room. Soon an- other, a little later another ; at last, about 11:30 p. m., more than twenty lay' drunk upon the floor. -Then the manager arrived, followed by all the waters. Two of -them raised the first man they met, and when the manager recognized him he shouted, "Take -him to No. 7," and they .carried him -there. .Another corpse raised himself and cried to the manager, "Take me to No, 12." And in this manner all the drunken men who lay on the floor were carried to their rooms. I felt deeply shamed, as, passing through the richly decorated corridors, I retired to . my room. . We will not speak of Russia. It is diffi- cult to say which of the two countries has the " record" for drunkenness. On Sunday evenings in Moscow, it shows as if there had -been a great 'battle; the Kremlin is sur- rounded by the bodies of drunken men ; there are streets :you cannot pass through -without having to leave the footpath every instant. A great .portion of the land of Russia, in some districts, is sown with ani- seed, from Which -the cheap brandy consum- ed by the people is made. The greatest Riesien fortunes are made by distillers. Even the intelligent hard-working Swiss suffers much from this plague. The Gene- van gendarmes are chiefly engaged in arrest- ing drunkards: "Good business," we once said to them when engaged in thie task. " As you please," they .replied, " if we had not this to do Gur occupation would be gone. We are rightly proud of a people among whom drunkenness is a rare exception. The Spaniard does not drown his misfortunes in drink, he bears them without clouding his mind and brain. Who despairs of a people that possesses to such an extent the virtue of sobriety? A people always master of itself, no matter what its present misfor- tunes may be, has the future in its -power. There is no great enterprise of which it is not capable. There is no glory of which the most sober and virtuous people is not worthy. • • -Miss Etta Lake, Parkhili, Ontario, says: I' have used Dr. Laviolette's Syrup of Tur- pentine for a sevs3re cough.

These short bicycle skirts are certainly a great leveler," said the South Side ma'is as he looked out of the car window at a passing wheelwoinan. ""Especially for a some- what nearsighted man," he somewhat ir- relevantly added.

Her gray skirt just reached where her boot tops would ordinarily have been. - She wore very high and nicely rounded tan shoes, however, and her feet and ankles looked decidedly trim and shapely. She -wasn't riding, but had her wheel on the sidewalk, pushing it along. The vision was such a charming -one,from the Tamb'Shanter hat to the very boot heels, that I lingered a little.

Above the two front wheels is a tank, which contains clean water that may, of course, be heated if necessary. The water is supplied to rotary brushes at the botOm of the machine, and these, revolving in an opposite direction to the motion of the Ma- chine itself, scrub the floor. The dirt and water are carried into another tank over the two back wheels.. The wiping appar- atus consists of an endless band of absor- bent material made eapecia ly for the pur- pose.
