The New Arithmetic.

frowsy-headed boy, of the character erally denominated ‘* tough, ”, recently Wreered a grocery store when the following scene occurred:

*- Have you any taffy ?”’

‘« Yes.

‘* How much a pound ?”

** Ten cents.’

** Gimme it.”

The taffy was duly done up and handed

over when the urchin, having just spied a bunch of fire-crackers, suddenly queried again:

* How much for the squib?”

** Ten cents a bunch.”

** I'll take them instead of the taffy.” All right.”

Having received the fire-crackers, he weighed them, smelled them, winked hard with one eye, and, putting them in his pocket was making for the door, when the shopman stopped him with:

t you hav’nt paid for these

sé 7 rey, there,

crackers ** Well, I gave you the taffy for them.” Yes, bus you didn’t pay for the taffy.”

* Well, dida’t I give it back again ?’’—and off he went

Tableau— By the time the grocer had the think figured out the boy was several blocks away.

uc LITTLE uréative LIVER Qvuerts PILLS.

BEWARE OF IMITATIONS. ALWAYS ASK FOR DR. PIERCE’S PELLETS, ON LITTLE SUGAR-COATED PILLS.

Being entirely vegetable, they op- erate without disturbance to the system, diet, or occupation. Put up in glass vials, hermeti- cally sealed. Always fresh and reliable. As a laxative, alterative, or purgative, these little Pellets give the most perfect satisfaction.

SICK HEADACHE,

Bilious Headache, Dizziness, Constipa- tion, Indigestion, Bilious Attacks, andall derangements of the stom- ach and bowels, are prompt- ly relieved and permanently cured by the use of Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Purgative Pellets. In explanation of the remedial power of these Pellets over so great a variety of diseases, it may truthfully be said that their action upon the system is universal, not a gland or tissue escaping their sanative influence.

“is offered by the manufactur- ers of Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy, for a case of Chronic Nasal Catarrh which they cannot cure.

SYMPTOMS OF CATARRH.—Duili, heavy headache, obstruction of the nasal passages, discharges falling from the head into the throat, sometimes profuse, watery, and acrid, at others, thick, tenacious, mucous, purulent, bloody and putrid; the eyes are weak, watery, and inflamed; there is ringing in the ears, deafness, hacking or coughing to clear the throat, expectoration of offensive matter, together with scabs from ulcers; the voice is changed and has a nasal twang; the breath is offensive; smell and taste are im- paired; there is a sensation of dizziness, with mentai depression, a hacking cough and gen- eral debility. Only a few of the above-named symptoms are likely to be present in any one case. Thousands of cases annually, without manifesting half of the above symptoms, re- sult in consumption, and end in the grave. No disease is 80 common, more deceptive and dangerous, or less understood by physicians,

By its mild, soothing, and healing properties, Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Kemedy cures the worst cases Of Catarrh, *‘coid in the head,”

“Untold Agoi..” from Catarrh.”

Prof. W. HAUSNER, the famous mesmerist, of Ithaca, N. Y., writes: “‘ Some ten years ago I suffered untold agony from chronic nasal catarrh. My family physician gave me up as incurable, and said I must die. My case was such a bad one, that every day, towards sun- set, my voice would become so hoarse I could i In the morning my coughing and clearing of my throat would almost strangle me. Ry the use of Dr. Sage’s Catarrh Remedy, in three months, I was a well man, and the cure has been permanent,”

THOMAS J. RusniIna, Esq., 2902 Pine Street, St. Louis, Mo., writes: “1 was a grees sufferer from catarrh for three years. At times I could hardly breathe, and was constant!y hawking and spitting, and for the last eight months could not breathe through the nostrils. I

She isarow eighteen years and sound anf henrty.”’
