k Marvelous Story
TOLD IN TWO LETTERS.
FROM THE S0N:Torcktter,r
" UtntUmen: My father resides at Olovor,
Vt, lie has been a great sufferer from Scrof
ula, and the Inclosed letter Mill tell you what
a marvelous clfcct
Ayefs Saraaparilla
hs had In his caso. I think bis blood musk
havo contained the humor for at least ten
years ; but It did not cbow, except In the form
of a scrofulous sore on the wrlet, until about
Ave years ago. From a few spots which ap
peared at that time, It gradually spread so as
to cover his entire body. I assure you he was
terribly altllctcd, and oii object of pity, when
he began using your medicine. Now, there are
few men of his age who enjoy as good health
as he has. I could easily namo nfty persons
who would testify to tho facts In his case.
Yours truly, Vt'. M. Phillips."
FROM THE FATHER:
a duty for me to state to you tho benefit I
havo derived from tho uso of
Ayer s Sarsaparilla.
Six montln ago I was completely covered with
n terrible humor and scrofulous sores. Tim
humor caused an Incessant and Intolerable
itchliij, and tho akin cracked so as to cause
the blood to flow In many places whenever
1 moved. My sufferings were great, and my
life a burden. I commenced the use of tho
S Alts ATARI LLA in April last, and hare used
It regularly slnco that tlmo. My condition
began to Improve at once. Tho sores havo
all healed, anil I feci perfectly well In every1
respect boing now ablo to do a good day's
work, although 73 years of ago. Many Inquire
what has wrought such a cure In my case, and
I tell them, as I havo hero trlod to tell you,
Avr.r.'a Sajisapamlla. Glover, Vt, Oct
21, 1332. Yours gratefully,

THE OLD FRONT D00II.
I remember Hie time when I used to sit,
A happy nu. thoughtless boy,
When lather caino homo from his work at
last.
And 1 was llred of my tov i
I remember the lime, atii noiio more sweet
Shall t know foi evermore,
When 1 sat at the eve by my mother's side,
On the sill of the old Trout dour.

Aud list to their toying talk,
While the crickets chirjied aud the firo (Ilea
bright
Flew oyer the'garden wall,
And often would lather tell the ta!ox
uf the lime, lonj years before.
When he led Ins bride to a hnppy home,
Over tho till of tho old front door.
I remember when graudfutber failed and
died,
And eighty years old wos be,
And well I knew that never ngnln
IIo would riiloine upon his knee;
And though but a gay and thoughtless boy
I wept, and my heart was soro
Vhetf I saw them bear lit six slowly out
O'er the sill of the old front door.
It Is mony a weary day since then,
And I, too, am old and gray:
But the tears mine croivdikg into my eyes
When I think of the long past (lav :
And 1 only hope that whatever end
Fate may have for mo in store,
I shall puss unco more, ere 1 pass away,
O cr the sill of the old front duor.
The Two T)!i,wns
I was completely worn out, over-woik-
e3, tho doctor said, uml decided to take
a much needed vaottion. I Rlauced
around with n, dissatisfied air. ut tho ar
ticles of yirlu I had prised 1,0 highly,
inuiyof which lind cokt me more than
-oue meal, thinking how stupid I had been
working and Btarving myself merelv to
gratify an ubsurd (uuey for rare bits ol

of wrk i'bt'Bm with so much enthnsi
asm bad proved tin utter fulluro. I
could cnuctive beautiful idtai, but bad
uifVer succicdcd iu placing them ou
cany.is?.
So far I bad iked out a miserable) ex-
hteuce; dreaming v.iin dreams about my
lincreated works; ftediug my too vvid
iinngiu,iiion and starving my corporeal
g-'lf until my mi.sernhlu body was 1,0 thiu
that it could scarcely lifleot n nbadow.
I cursed late alter the orthodox fa&biou,
doolaring I would abandon my nrl, give
up all 1'ooliiU aspirations mid lum boot.

Au hour later I was slandiug iu the
Erio deput, without liny definite ide. cs
to wberUJlfdiould go, whun a geulleinaii.
holding alltlloglrl liy'the inimll'citnio
along and purchased licktts fur a station
about eighty miles dUtaut. Ium unable
1 1 say why I concluded to go to the same
place, but Mippoao the "destiny that
sh ipes our ends" sent mo there.
I took a seat iu the car, and anon fell
into ouo of my old reveries, from which
1 did not nwakeu until I reached my des.
ttn.illon. Hastily picking tip my (raps,
I oiitt.d tho car, nud saw the gfulcmau
nud child hlunding on the platform.
There was not ft vebielo of nnv kind in
sight; nothing but n loug Mrelch of dus
ty roads and perhaps half a dcziu farm
uuuim so.mereo wiueiy apart 1 ap
proached tho strauger to inqnira if there
was a hole! within walking distauce, and
wa-i informed that the nearest nluce
wloie I could obtain lodgings was ubout
ten miles away.
I slated that my stopping at tho bla
tliitf was due to au idiotic habit of miuo
trusting to chnuce "The bubit has fre-
ipieully led mo into unpleasant predict.
ineuts.nnd this is only one more instance.
However, I "m glad to Hod n companion
la miaery, I concluded, with u lugubri
mis smile.
"I expected some oue to meet us, but
I Suppose tboy did not rec.-ive my letter,
ho observed, "I could tnsily walk to the
farm, but it U too far lor tbo child, and
I do not like to leave her alono while 1
go in srarcb of a wagou."
"You can appoint mo ber fjuordhui
rno irsi., nud perhaps jour Jehu will
drivo me to the village."
He billowed my suggestion, nnd n few
m imcnts Inter was plodding along the
Itiity road, wbilo the child aud I were
sailed contentedly uuder a tree looking
ut nn illustrated paper I bad stuck iu
my pocket.
I have a knack of making friends with
children and dogs, and iu a short tlmo
wo were dialling ns familiarly as if we
were old acquaintances. The little
duiuxel informed me that ber name was
Llda Allynr, and the gentlunau was Inr
papa. She had been at school iu tl c
city, nnd was going to spend the sum
mer with cr.indtna and Aunt Mat I in.
She hadn't any innmm i.nl lenst papa
always said so when she naked nboutlur.
1'irbaps sbo was dead, but she dilu't
know, becaiiKo Ihey would never let her
talk about ber mamma.
Nearly two hours elapsed before Mr
Allyn? came back iu a farm wngou; tbeu
be explained that when beriuobut the
farm be found bis sitter bad goue to the
Tillage .for the null, and bo was obliged
to await btr return
"Jfow, Mr. Conway, since fate has
ihrotu us together, acd yea lmvercn
dered ine a real airvice, I beg you will
go with us and spend Hie night nt my
mother's. To-morrow I will drivo you
to the village."
The imitation was tendered with
heirty earnestness and beiug both tired
nnd hungry, I gladly avail-d in self ol
it. During Iho drim lie told me that be
