Far into the night Jane patched and con- trived, with that new, wonderful hope guiding her fingers. She even produced one or two faded ribbons, relics of wedding finery, and sighed as she pinned them, on, thinking how faded, too, was the face aboee them. The day was hot, and they left their home early, "so's to git our money's wuth," said Jim. The children huddled around their mother, almost stupified with admira- tion at the street parade. " Jes' wait !" insinuated Jim. From the summit of the great pavilion to a point within a few feet of the ground a rope was stretched, and a wonderfully - apparelled female began to descend the perilous causeway. . Jane watched with painful absorption. " I'm glad it's over," she said. But Jim has disappeared. " Pap'e gone to git us in,' said one of the children. There was a crash of music inside' the tent ; the crowd began to stream inward ; the field was deserted, save for a group of men gathered around a table, hitherto con- cealed from Jane's bewildered eyes. She saw her husband. " Go tell pap it's time fur us to go in," she said, and, breathless, watched the child speed on his errand. He returned alone. " Pap's treacin' the crowd," said the boy, his words drowned in a vociferous burst of applause from the tent. " Stay here," commanded Jane, a..1 went towards the hilarious group. " Come, Jim," she said, coaxingly, " an' take us into the show." " I'll be along—plenty o' time," answer- ed her husband, with benignant good ham - or. But he was deaf toher repeated entreaties. She stood silent, watching him till the last dime was spent. Then she went back to the children. Something in her face awed them, and they only whispered among themselves. " Your pap's drunk, and the money's all gone,".said Jane, with an air of indiffer- ence, and sat down on. the grass again. The people were streaming out of the tent ; the crowd was dispersing. One of the animal vans drew near. Jane crept to the driver. " Mister," she said, in trembling tones, •' won't you let the children take a peep ? They never saw nathin' in their lives." " Boss wouldn't let me," answered the man, yet not unkindly. A white monkey thrust its paw through the slats of the cage. The children were in ecstasies of delight. The driver started his horses. " Come, children, let's go home," said Jane. It was dark when they reached the cabin. A whippoorwill sang from the thicket, and. its wail was to Jane Sheplas the knell of hope.—[August Lippincott's. ou go to the earest?" e ; but there is darling." midday now ; before you. thatman now the acts to nen- iter, I want Ville ze lady 'hose or a (generous to a —"Bring as avy on 'ern.,, e the supposi, tamed with - menet both nal morality fry princes GRAPPLING WITH A MANIAC. A Physician's Short But Fearful Expe- rienee in an Ambulance. Hospital physicians have sometimes the most thrilling adventures, as the one re- counted to me by a member of the profes- sion will show, says a writer in the Phila- delphia Inquirer. " A call for an ambu- lance and a physician came in•late the other night, and as I was on duty I hurried to the spot, which is one of the dreariest in the outskirts. of the city." he said. "When I arrived at the place I found a man in the most terrible detirinm I ever saw. The po- liceman and myself managed to get him into the ambulance and strapped him to the floor. I then got in with him and started for the hospital. " We were well on our way - and the prisoner was quiet, when suddenly, with a terrific effort, the madman burst the straps which held him to the floor and sprang at me. I cried to the driver to hurry and en- tered into a conflict with my assailant. It was horrible. Twice he almost overpow- ered me, and once his fingers were fixed in my throat. I shook myself free and finally managed to pin him to the floor with my knees on his breast and my fingers grasping his windpipe. " All this time the ambulance pitched and tossed like a ship in a storm as the driver went at a full gallop through the streets. Some 10 minutes after I had mastered my= antagonist we arrived at the hospital. The maniac and myself were dragged out more dead than alive, but the memory of that 10 minutes is one of the most horrible things in my whole life." Corns !

And the dnetors—some of them are between you and us. They would like you to think that what's cured thousands won't cure you. You'd -believe in patent inedieine if they didn't profess to cure everything—and so, between the experi- ments of doctors, and the experiment of patent medicines that are sold only because there's money in the "stuff," you lose faith in everything. .And, you can't always tell the prescrip- tion that cures by what you read in the papers. So, perhaps, there's no better way to sell a remedy, than to tell the truth about it, and take the risk of its doing just what it professes to do. That's what the World's Dispensary Medical Association, of Buffalo, N.Y., does with Dr, Pierce's Golden Medical Diac.overy_ and Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription.

After Two Years ofSnRering She Has Fully Regained her Health, and Tells Her Story That Others May be Benefited— The Testimony of a Leading Druggist. From The Halifax Critic. Camille Flammarion, the great French astronomer, in his new story " Omega : or The Last Days of the World," which is now being published in the Cosmopolitan Magazine, gives the press of the future a very hard hit. Whether or not the great astronomer may be right in his view of the press of the 24th century, one thing is cer- tain, the world of to -day is more largely -indebted to the press for efforts to promote the highest civilization, than to any other human agency. Great discoveries in all 'ranches of scientific research are chronicled ly on the blood supplying its life-giving with a faithfulness that enables the multi- qualities, by assisting it to absorb oxygen, that great supporter of all organic life. In this way, the blood becoming " built up," and being supplied with its lacking constit- uents, becomes rich, nourishes the va- rious organs,stimulating them to activity in the performance of their functions and thus eliminates diseases from the system. shows that these pills are an unfailing speci- fic for all diseases arising from an impover- ished condition ofthe blood, or from an im- pairment of the nervous system, such as loss of appetite, depression of spirits, an- tenda, chlorosis or green sickness, general muscular weakness, dizziness, lose of mem- ory, locomotor ataxia, paralysis, sciatica, rheumatism, St. Vitus' dance, the after effects of la grippe, all diseases depend- ing upon a vitiated condition of the blood, such as scrofula, chromic erysipelas, etc. They are also also a specific for the troubles peculiar to the female system, correcting irregularities, suppressions and all forms of female weakness, building anew the blood and restoring the glow of health to pale and sallow cheeks. In the case of men they effect a radical cure in all cases arising from mental worry, overwork or excesses of any nature. These pills are not a purgative medicine. They contain only life-giving proporteis, and nothing that could injure the most delicate system. They act direct. tudea to enjoy to the greatest extent the benefits accruing therefrom. The news- papers of our land have for many months past contained accounts of miraculous cures effected through the agency of that mar- vellous medicine known to the world as Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People. A large number of these stories have been published in the• columns of The Critic, and have no doubt been read by the majority of our readers with full assurance of the truth- fulness thereof, and yet we imagine there have been a few who have doubted, and who have not been so much interested in the experiences of people miles away from. Nova Scotia -as in those of their own prov- ince. Now, however, The Critic can give an account of a perfect cure, the facts of which we can guarantee as being true in every particular. One day some time ago, some members of The Critic's staff were discussing in the edi- torial sanctum the merits of Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, of which so much is being beard nowadays, when one of the company said, " By the way, did you ever hear of a cure anyway approaching the miraculous being effected by -Pink Pills in Halifax ?" " No," confessed the others, " we never. did. Of course there have been many cases in which the medicine has undoubtedly been very beneficial, but hardlymiraculous." "Well," said the first speaker, " you know Robert Ainslie of this city, do you not? His wife was one of the sickest women in Halifax at one time, and is now hale and hearty and gives all the credit to Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Keeping this conversation in mind, one of our reporters having a little leisure time one afternoon last week, called upon Mrs, Robert Ainslie at her hone 26 Blowers street, and after making known his errand, was invited into the comfortable sitting room and was cordially welcomed by Mrs. Ainslie, who said she was only too happy to make known to others the wonderful prop- erties of the medicine which had done her so much good. "How long were you ill, Mrs. Ainslie ?" asked the reporter. "I was taken with a severe attack of pneumonia, some two years ago," said the lady," which lasted for about three months, and left me a wreck of my former self. Just seventeen weeks from the time I was first prostrated until I could put my foot on the floor, and even after I was able to walk about I was but a shadow of the woman I had been. "Death of the nerves," was the name the doctors gave the disease from which I was then suffering, and indeed it seemed at one time that I would not be long for this world. Pale, thin, weak and emaciated, I was but an object of pity to all who saw me, and a source of much anxiety to my family and friends. While in this condition I travelled throughout the province, hoping thereby to regain my health. I visited the Spa Springs at Mid- d'eton, drank the mineral water and took the baths, but all to no effect. Finally I was advised by a friend, who herself had been greatly benefited by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills, to try this wonderful remedy. Although I confess, I had little faith in this or any other medicine, I purchased a box of the celebrated Pink Pills and began taking them according to directions, and tcok box after box, until I had taken eight, when I found I was becoming fat, and as I was then in excellent health I took no more and have since then been well and strong." Mrs. Ainslie's story, although given in her own words, conveys but a faint idea of the faith she has in Dr. Williams' P ink Pills, to which she feels she owes her pres- ent excellent health. Mrs. Ainslie inform- ed The Critic representative that she had recommended Pink Pills to some twenty- five or thirty of her friends throughout the Province, (in which she has an extensive acquaintance), and in some cases had pur- chased several boxes of the pills in Halifax, for people living in country. places. " I understand, Mrs. Ainslie, that you yourself manufacture a medicine which is highly spoken of ?" " Yes," said the lady, " I do. My dys- pepsia cordial is well known in Nova Scotia, and even further away." This struck us as a case in which " physician heal thyself," might have been applied, but it goes to prove that Dr. Williams` Pink Pills have a power to strike to the root of disease that other atedicines, be they ever so good in their place, have not. After thanking Mrs. Ainslie for her kindness in giving us the above hearty recommendation of the medi- cine, we proceeded to interview Mr. Hamil- ton, of Messrs. Brown Bros. & Co., drug- gists, of this city, from whom Mrs. Ainslie. had purchased the Pink Pills. This course was taken not that we in the least doubted ,. the statements made by Mrs. Ainslie, but simply to satisfy any sceptical ones among the readers of The Critic, who, not being. acquainted with the lady, might feel that they would like assurance made doubly. sure. Mr. Hamilton said he remembered Mrs. Ainslie when she purchased the first box of Dr. 'Williams' Pink Pills. -She was then much debilitated and had been very ill. He also rememberedher coming to him whenshe had taken a half dozen boxes and testifying both by her words and appear- ance to the good they had accomplished in her case. Mr, 'Hamilton stated that there were more of Dr. Williams' famous Pink Pills sold by his firm than any other medi- cine, and that they were very frequently. hearing from their customers of the won -- dean' beneficial onderfnlbeneficial results of the treatment.

Bear in mind that Dr. Williams' Pink Pills are never sold in bulk, or by the dozen or hundred, and any dealer who offers substitutes in this form is tryingto defraud you and should be avoided. The public are also cautioned against all other so-called blood builders and nerve tonics, put up in similar form intend- ed to deceive. They are all imitations, whose makers hope to reap a pecuniary advantage from the wonderful reputation achieved by Dr. Williams' Pink Pills. Ask your dealer for Dr. Williams' Pink Pills for Pale People and refuse all imitations and substitutes. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills may be had of all druggists, or direct by mail from Dr. Williams' Medicine Company from either address, at 50 cents a box, or six boxes for $2.50. The price at which these pills are sold makes a course of treatment compara- tively inexpensive as compared with other remedies or medical treatment. Quack Advertisements Are a nuisance and we think it behooves publishers to examine into the merits of many articles puffed up in their columns. We do not deny that many meritorious remedies are properly to be classed under this heading. Take the hundreds and thousands relieved from severe suffering by the use of Poison's Nerviline ; would it not be unreasonable to expect them to con- demn that far-famed remedy ? Now we know for a fact that Poison's Nerviline is without exception themost powerful, pleasant and certain remedy in the world for pain. It cannot fail, for it goes right to the bottom of pain, penetrates to the nerves, soothes them into quietness, and affords prompt and permanent relief. An Enormous Diamond. The Daily Telegraph says ; —The largest rough diamond that has ever been found in Africa, weighing 670 carats, has just been reported in London. It was found in the Jagersfontein mine, and is a blue -white stone.

The following clever composition wen re- cently submitted by Geraldine Hell,, eleven years old, to her teacher, Miss Judith Put- nam, of the M. W. Fuller School, Chicago: "My home is high up on the mountain side where I often hear the hunters' guns when they shoot at the animals which roam o'er the mountain, and I can see the happy mountain goats frolicking on the cliffs near by, out of the enemy's reach. "I am very massive for Icover forty square miles of surface and in one place I am five hundred feet deep. I am as pure as crys- tal an :I. glitter and sparkle most radiantly in the sun. "I was formed by layers Of snow packed very closely upo.i each other. When I first began to grow I started on the top of the mountain, but when I got rather large, I started on a journey to the valley below. I have grown to such a size -now that I move on my way about a distance of two inches in a year: I sometimes grow very weary in my descent, for often great bowlders get on my back to take a side, and then I have a rough path over which to travel. I general- ly bring everything that is in my way along. "I have strained so hard that there are great cracks or crevasses in my sides, and most wonderful caves. The sunlight play- ing in these with beautiful colors of blues and greens awakens the most profound ad- miration from the people who come from all parts of the world to see me. They always say, that they never saw anything like the blue in the caves; it is so blue that I feel very proud when I hear them talk. ."The bowlders and rocks that have come down the mountain side with me,form what is called a moraine, and growing all over it is found the -beautiful white and purple Scotch heather. People often amuse them- selves by picking flowers, and then pierc- ing my sides with a sharp iron point which is on the end of a long stick which they carry to get pieces of me to eat.

I received such quick and permanent help from it that whenever we have had Throat or Bronchial troubles since in our family, Boschee's Ger- man Syrup has been our favorite remedy and always with favorable results I have never hesitated to report my experience of its use to others when I have found them troubled in like manner."
