Slood Diseases are cured by --the persevering use of Ayer's } Sarsaparilla.
This medicine is an Alterative, and « causes a radical change in the system. ' ‘The process, in some cases, may not be quite so rapid as in others; but, with persistence, the result is certain, }wead these testimonials :— ‘* For two years T suffered from a se- * vere pain in my right side, and had other troubles caused by a torpid liver || und dyspepsia. After giving several '* medicines a fair trial without a cure, I ' began to take Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. I ' was greatly benefited by the first bottle, | and after taking five bottles I was com- a cured,’’~- John W. Benson, 70 .awrence st., Lowell, Mass.
Last May a large carbuncle broke out on my arm, The usual remedies had no effect and I was confined to my bed for _ eight weeks. A friend induced me to try || Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. Less than three | bottles healed the sore. In all my expe- ). rience with medicine, I never saw more '
Wonderful Results.
Another marked effect of the use of this medicine was the strengthening of my sight..”.— Mrs. Carrie Adams, Holly Springs, Texas.
*“T had a dry scaly humor for years, and suffered terribly ; and,as my broth- er and sister were similarly afflicted, I presume the malady is hereditary. Last winter, Dr. Tyron, (of Fernandina, Fla.,) recommended me to take Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, and continue it for a year. For fiye months I took it daily. I have not had a blemish upon m body for the last three months.’—T. E. Wiley, 146 Chambers st., New York City.
“ Last fall and winter I was troubled with a dull, heavy pain in my side. did not notice it much at first, but it gradually grew worse until it became almost unbearable. During the latter part of this time, disorders of the stom- ach and liver increased my troubles. I began taking Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, and, after faithfully continuing the use of this medétine for some months, the pain disappeared and I was completely cured.” —Mrs. Augusta A. Furbush, ifaverhill, Mass.

OCuicaco, I)., Oct. 29.—The old legal adage that an apparent attempt to suppress the truth is as powerful as its declaration had application im the Cronin trial to-day, when five members of camp 20 of the Clan- na Gac!, the hotbed of conspirators, were placed on the stand by the state. They were called to testify as to the inner work- ings of this numerous camp, but, with a single exception, the witnesses resorted to all manner of strategy to hamper the prose- cution. The men who were summoned were recording secretary John F. O’Connor, Andiew Foy, junior warden Michael J. Kel- ley, Patrick J. Ford and Stephen Calloran. They were all intensely nervous and em- barrassed. O'Connor was confused and palpably evasive. Foy was rambling and incoherent. Kelley, although more precise than his predecessors, had an amazingly | treacherous memory. Ford was more sat- |istactory to the state. His testimony, how- ‘ever, was not sensational Big Stephen 'Calloran, who was the close friend of Burke
before the assassination, and whose clean- shaven face and massive jaws bear a strik- } ing resemblance to those of the supposed ‘tenant of the Carlson cottage, proved to be ‘the only valuable witness the public prose- _cutors have yet drawn from the camp which | is claimed to have plotted the death of Dr. Cronin.
THE BMBARASSMENT OF ALL THE CLAN-Na- GAEL WITMESSES, wa: painfally apparent. They quibbled and hesitated, and made some astounding assertions for men who admitted that they were present at the now famous meetings of the camp on the nights of Feb. 8 and 22. Shorn of all verbiage, the sensational tes- timony of the witnesses showed that Begg was acquainted with Burke; that Coughlan, Cooney and Burke were close friends, and that all four were particularly interested in one another during the four months pre- ,ceding the butchery. Collaran was not a | willing witness, but it was evident that he | was not possessed of the subilety of hiscamp | colleagues who had appeared earlier in the

Your correspondent was amused to see one of the sturdy farmers of Blooming Point, Charles C. McDonald, Esq., feeding wild fowl from his hand. Three or {four bluejays have frequented Mr. MeDonala’s premises for the last four years, and are so accustomed to their ‘*‘ rations” that they alight on the head or shoulders of the do- mestics, and actually lay by a store of food for future use.
Many farmers in Lots 36 and 37 complain of injustice in the measure of potatoes and turnips, when shipping at points on the north side of East River. ‘The old tub measure of 25 gallong is still in use at these places, whereas the new measure of 23 gailons, which is the legal one, is seldom used. The ground for ¢omplaint seems to be well founded and the error should be rectified.

Dvusuin, Oct. 31.—The Irish Times says Parnell has had a conference with the speaker of the House of Commons relative to the best mode of executing his intentions at the next session of Parliament in trying to establish complicity of the Government in the attacks made by the London Times on the Parnellites.

Toronto, Oct. 31.—There will likely be ademand made upon the Dominion Gov- ernment to alter the tariffto admit estab- lishing the iron ship building industry in Canada. At present ships constructed in ,Rngiand or Scotland are admitted free. The materials for constructing such ships in Canada are subject to duties. It is said that the new shipyard of the Polsons, at Owen Sound, and the proposed yard of Doty, at Collingwood, would grow into a great industry by a readjustment of the duty.
Mapriv, Oct. &1.— Minister Gonsoles read the budget in the Cortes to-day, The revenue is 803,000,000 pesetas, slightly ex- ceeding the expenditures. The Government proposes a tariff on wheat and flour.

MINNEAPOLIS, Oct. 31.—An agent of the associated charities of this city, just return- ed from an extended trip in Pamsay Co., | Dakota, says the stories of destitution are exaggerated.
