B m makes a clean sweep of all diseases that begin in the blood. What other medicines drive in Ayer's Sar saparilla drives out. Where other medicines make a surface show of health by cleansing- the skin, Ayer's Sarsaparilla lays the foundation of health by cleansing the blood. It is conceded that of all diseases the larger portion have their origin in impure blood. Cleanse the blood and you cleanse the skin. Foul blood cannot make a fair body. The shortest way to a sound body, a clear complexion, and a vigorous life is to purify the blood with Ayer's Sarsaparilla., . SO years Moran, Mary Gaughn, Wlnnlo Haggcrty, U. Kelly.

Relief At Hand Had He Only Known Whore to Look for It. Let ub, my good friends, always fcttlt our tools to tho work to be dono. Wo dd not trim our nails with broadswords or carvo statues with adaes. Now a word Is a tool, Just as a hoe In, or a razor. The figure of Liberty on v. quarter of a dollar Is impressed thero by a machine made for the purpose. By tho same token words worn In vented to Imprint thoughts und Ideas on the minds of others. And every word or expression has a currency meaning of Its own so long np we re frain from using them In a slack or careless way. Just ns the lord mayor's coach, or one's own best clothes nre not intended for every little trumpery occuslon, so great words should be .vserved till the tlmo comes when nothing clso will do. When a man singes his whiskers by Hhe islovenly handling of a lighted match, wo do not rouse up the lire de partment. Now the word "excruciating" Is one of the strongest words in the English language. It tingles with sharp sig nificance ns a black cat's back snaps with electricity on a frosty night. Only shallow people will take liberties with this word. In our ordinary talk It does not come properly Into play once a year; and rightly so. For It nlludes to a kind of mental or physical suf fering that we desire to avoid think ing or speaking of. If the root mean ing of the word "excruciating" escnpes you for a. moment look it up in the dictionary. It Is a .word with a pedl gree, and its ancestors have supped with horrors since men began to make history. Tho question then that you and I have to settle Is, whether Mr. George H. Simpson employed this dignified and exclusive word justifiably when ho said: "I was troubled twelve years with much pain In the small of my back. So continuous was it that I ceased to take pleasure In work. In deed, I ceased to take pleasure alto gether. With me life got to bo n thing to endure, not to enjoy. I am speaking within bounds when I say that at times those pains were excru ciating. "With the pains in my back I suf fered from terrible periodic headuches and profound mental depression. I was ft prey to anxiety and apprehension, the cause of which I was unable to locate or understand. Yet to look at me you would hardly have fancied my truo condition. Sometimes when ap pearing at my best and receiving the congratulations of my friends on what they were pleased to can my obvious Improvement, I still felt wretched and miserable. But nobody sympathized with me. I suppose It was because I was not emaciated or run down ns persons with dangerous diseases are commonly supposed to be. "While on this point, I may perhaps be permitted to say that affections of the kidneys, even Brlght's disease it self, often co-exist with a generally healthy external appearance on the part of the patient. The poor fellow may be within a few weeks of his death nnd yet to the unlnstructed eyo look well enough to pass for a sound man. "The secretion from my kidneys was high colored and offensive, with a con Thomas, Emily Thomas, Annie Jones, Elvira Jones, Edith Morgans, Bessie Williams, Zachnrlah Williams, Willie Amos.Arthur Amos, Haydn Price, Har rison Trethaway, Margaret Trethaway, Johnny Grllllths, Alice Walbrau and Lizzie John.

James Hughes will havn charge of the J 7.15 p. m. service tomorrow, at which siderable brick dust deposit. I cannot set forth In writing what I suffereJ and shall not try. The headaches alona I thought a sufficient punishment for such unconscious offenses In the mat ter of eating and drinking, as had brought this complaint upon me." The editor begs to Interrupt Mr. Simpson to remind him, and others as well, that In Inflicting penalties Nature never stops for a moment to consider whether tho offenses were consciously committed or not. Juries and Judges are continually moved cither by sym pathy for the prisoner or prejudlc against him. Nature Is cold as a tomb, stone, yet perfectly fair and Impartial Whether you take a dose of poison lg norantly or unintentionally, or with the purpose to commit suicide, the re sult Is precisely the same. Naturs will not push you over the cliff, neith er will she put out her hand to savn you from being dashed to pieces. Think of this when you nre tempted to meddW with her arrangements. "The cloctors," continues Mr. Simp son, "gave mo no relief, although I consulted many and followed their di rections faithfully. I do not blame them, for they did their best: and I cannot praise them as their best was no advantage to me. "It wns my custom to buy my toilet articles at the Wnlker-Hlntels Drug Co., 244 Boylston street, and ono day 1 told Mr. D. Wallace Klntels about my condition and the failure of doctor to help me. He at one suggested the use of Warner's Safe Cure. As to the virtue of this medicine, although I had heard of it, I was skeptical. I considered the advertised statements of Its merits exaggerated, yet I bought a bottle on the bare chance of its doing me good. After having taken a few doses my headaches were certain ly less frequent and less Intense. Greatly delighted nt this hopeful out come I kept on taking the medicine regularly and Improved steadily; and before long the symptoms I have named disappeared entirely. "At the date of this writing I havn been well long enough to make sure that my cure Is radical and perman ent. In spite of the pain and peril of those twelve fearful years I have today as good an appetite, as clear a head nnd ns sound a bodyns nny man In, Boston. As an Illustration of It I need only suy that the very Insurance com pany which had previously rejected me on account of an 'Incurable disease of the kidneys' has since written a heavy policy on my life. I weigh more than I used to and my flesh Is healthy and solid. I am rid of the puffiness which marks the chronic sufferer from klndney trouble. And for this trans formation I hereby acknowledge In debtedness to Warner's Safe Cure and that only." George B. Simpson, 23 Church street, Boston. AVhnt Is popularly called kidney trouble Is shown by modern Investi gation to have several forms. It Is always a dangerous and deceptive con dition, sometimes slowly and some times rapidly progressive, and liable to terminate fatally even when the Immediate symtoms seem to be least alarming. Thousands of casualties attributed to other causes are really due to diseased kidneys. The success for many years of Warner's Safe Cure In relieving and curing this subtle di sease has won for It the world-wide reputation It now enjoys. When kid ney symtoms declare themselves, do not hesitate to use Warner's Safe Cure. The risk Is not in resorting to this remedy, but In neglecting It. tho following programme will be ren dered" ' Singing "Easter Everywhere" Prayer.

Our ship goes sailing o'er the sea Securely und ut leisure. The wind blows gently through her satis And fills them to our pleasure. Above all's bright nnd full, of cheer On board naught else whatever Around about on every side The most propitious weather. But look! The sea gulls presage storml The clouds begin to gather! Tho wind Is now no more astern, It's on our bowitho rather. Wo now with effort keep our course, Tho straining masts forewarn us. The sails, howo'or, at last are furled, And there's no ficcd to mourn us. Hut tli' rudder breaks! The ship keetl o'er! She's at the storm's fierce mercy! Th waves break o'er her as aha rolls - Is sho all unseaWorthy? Hut now as neve- work the men. They speak each other gravely, They Btruggle on know not despair; They cheer each other bravely. At last they see their work's reward, No waves o'er deck are flowing. The ship Is now quite safe, because The wind has closed Its blowing. The rudder's oncij again replaced, Tho ship Is riggrd for sailing, She smoothly glides along her cours Without a thouf ht of walling, fk All this Is Dut a parabla ut this oiir earthlv ifa. It points a 'moral for the mi En,gaE ged In its dark strife F. B. BallrJ ScrantonJ Pa,, March 25, Ht'9. V
