Why is it every sarsapnrilla
which tnes to sell itself, ranges
itself against Ayer's as the stand
ard ? Why is it that all have to
olFer extra inducements bUruer
bottles, fancy wrappers, cheaper
priej anything, everything, but
thu one inducement of quality V
has never been equaled by any
cheap imitation of it, and quality
tells, just as blood tells.
II is tne standard.
"I have sold Ayer's Sarmpnrilli for more
than twenty-fivo years, anil hao never
heard anything but word? of praiso from
my customers ; not a single complaint has
ever reached mo. A preparation must
possess groat merit to maintain such a repu
tation. I believe your sarsapnrilla to bo
the bst blood purifier that has ever been
introduced to tho general public. I often
hear other nnnufacturers say that this is
"a3 good as Ayer's," but no one ever yet
heard it said that Ayer's was "as good as
any other kind. They always set Ayer's up
as tho standard of excellence." S. F,

By the clever maneuvers of Maltre
Laborle nnd Maltre DeMange, the lat
ter, who knew very well that he was
breaking the law, got In a statement
that the reason that he objected to the
Dreyfus trial was thnt Dreyfus had
been convicted on a secret document
handed to his Judges without Its being
communicated either to the prisoner or
to himself. He ought to have waited
till the question wns put to him by the
Judges, who would, of course, have re
fused to put it, but did not do so, and
got In a quiet mals oul before he could
be checked.
Hy a similar maneuver on the part of
Maltre Clamenccau he was able to state
that what Maltre de Sales wanted to
say two days ago was that he had
dined with one of the Dreyfus Judges,
und had been told by the latter that
they had convicted Dreyfus on a Becret
document.

Wilkesharre, I'a., Feb. 14. The Mar
tin trial on Saturday developed little
new evidence. One Important witness,
however, was alary Kohler, who was

they heard the strikers were marching

their houses be broken Into. 31 r. nr-
mnn finally made her uunllfy this chim
nslnB evidence by tho statement that
the people were nlso afraid that the
deputies were Eolnc to shoot.
A liiont Important, witness was John
J'etruska, 11 huckster. He testified:

people. He had a revolver, and pointed
It Into the people's faces. I was four
steps awav from him. Suddenly he
disappeared, and the shooting began.
The miners were doing nothing when
the sheriff pointed the pistol in their
faces. One man pushed his arm with
the pistol away and the sheriff dlsap
