The Teacher
Who advised her pupils to strengthen their minds by the use of Ayer’s Sar- saparilla, appreciated the truth that bodily health is essential to mental vigor. For persons of deiicate and feeble coustitution, whether young or old, this medicine is remarkably beneficial. Be sure you get Ayer’s Sarsaparilla.
‘‘ Every spring and fall I take a num- ber of bottles of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, and am greatly benefited.” — Mrs. James H. Eastman, Stoneham, Mass.
“I have taken Ayer’s Sarsaparilla with great benefit to my general health.” ~ Miss Thirza L, Crerar, Palmyra, Md.
‘““My daughter, twelve years of age has suffered for the past vee from —
General Debility.-
A few weeks since, we began to give her Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. Her heaith hag Ga improved.’”’— Mrs. Harriet H.
attles, South Chelmsford, Mass.
“About a year ago I began using Ayer’s Sarsaparilla ,a8 a remedy for debility and neuralgia resulting from malarial supers thearmy. I wasina very bad condition, but six bottles of the Sar- saparilla, with occasional doses of Ayer’s Pills, have greatly improved my health. I am now able to work, and feel that I cannot say too much for your excellent remedies.’’—F. A. Pinkham, South Moluncus, Me.
“My daughter, sixteen years old, is using Ayer’s Sarsaparilla with good ef- fect.’’— Rev. Graham, United Brethren Church, Buckhannon, W. Va.
“ IT suffered from
Nervous Prostration,
with lame back and headache, and have been much benefited by the use of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. I am now 80 years of age, and am satisfied that my present health and prolonged life are due to the use of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla.”’—Lucy Mofiitt, Killingly, Conn.
Mrs. Ann H. Farnsworth, a lady 79 years old, So. Woodstock, Vt., writes : “After several weeks’ suffering, from nervous prostration, I procured a bottle of Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, and before I had taken half of it my usual health returned.”

THE FAIR GOD.

By Lew Wallace. Ce a CHAPTER XI.
(Continued. ) Leaving the Otompan to engage the Othmies, the fierce Tezcuvan assaulted the Tlascalans, an encouster in which there was no equality; but the eyes of Tenochtitlan were upon him, and at his back was a hated rival. His an- _ tagonists each sent an arrow to meet him; but ashe skilfully caught them on his shield, _ they, too, betook themselves to the maquahwit/, Right on he kept, until his shield struck itheirs; it was gallantly done, and won a ‘furious outburst from the people. Again | Montezuma sat up, momentarily animated. ‘“* Ah, my lord Cacama!” he said, if your | brother's love were but equal to his courage, I would give him an army.”
ee ee eae" ; Ail the gods foretend!” replied the jeaious prince. ‘* The viper would recover his fangs.”
| ‘Lhe speed with which he went was all that , saved [ztlil’ from the blades of the Tlascalans. Striking no blow himself, he strove to make way between, and get behind, so that, facing abouts to repel his returning onset, their backs would be to the ’tzin. But they were wary and did not yield. As they pushed against him, one, dropping his more cumbrous weapon, struck him in the breast with a copper | knife. spectators,

all else, he ran and, with a great cry, threw himself upon the body.
The Chalcan was as exultant as if the achievement had been his own. Even the prouder souls under the red canopy yielded their tardy praise; only the king was silent.
As none now remained of the challengers but the Tlascalan occupied with Iztlii’—none whom he might in honor engage—Guatamo- zin meved away from the Othmies; and as te went, once he allowed his giance to wander to the royal platform, but with thought of ove, not wrong.
The attention of the people was again directed to the combat of the Tezeucan. The death of his comrades nowise daunted the Tlascalan; he rather struck the harder for re- venge; his shield was racked, the feathers in his crest torn away, while the blades were red with his blood. Still it fared but ill with iztlil’ fighting for himself. His wonnd*in the breast bled freely, and his equipments were in no better plight than his antagonist’s. The struggle was that of the hewing and hacking which, whether giving or taking, soon ex-

hausts the strongest frame. At iast, faint with loss of blood, he went down. The Tlas- calan attempted to strike a final blow,
but darkness rushed upon him; he staggered, the blades sunk into the sand, and he iolled beside his enemy.
With that the combat was done. The chal- lengers might not behold their ‘land of bread” again; nevermore for them was ham- mock by the stream or echo of tambour anongst the hills.
And all the multitude arosé and gave way vo their rejoicing ; they embraced each other,

The YTezcucan disengaged himself, and, maddened by the blood that began to flow } down his quilted armour, assaulted furiously. | He was strong, quick of eye, and skilful; the | blades of his weapon gleamed in circles around his head, and resounded ayainst the shields. j At length a desperate blow beat down the! guard of one of the Tlascalans; ere it coull be | recovered, cr Iztli] avail himself of vantage, there came a sharp whirring through the air, and an arrow from the ‘tzin pierced } the warricr’s heart. Up he leaped, dead be- | fore he touched the sand. Again Iztlil’ heard | the acclamation for his rival. Vithout a pause, he rushed upon the surviving Tlascalan, as if to bear him down by stormy dint.
Meantime the combat of Tlahua, the Otom- pan, was not without its difficulties, since it | was not singly with the young Othmi.
** Mictlan take the old man!” cried the Lord Cuitlahua, bending from his seat. ‘I thought him done for; but, see! he defends, the other fights.”
And so it was, The Otompan struck hard, but was distracted by the tactics of his foe- men: if he aimed at the younger, both their shields warded the blow; if he assaulted the elder, he was in turn attacked by the younger; and so, without advantage to either, their strife continued until the fall of the Tlascalan. Then, inspired by despairing valor, the boy threw down his maquahuiti, and endeavored to push aside the Otompan’s shield. Once within its guard, the knife would finish the contest. Tlahua retreated ; bat the foe clung to him—one wrenching at his shield, the other intercepting his blows, and both carefully avoiding the deadly arch- ery of the ’tzin, who, seeing tlie extremity of
i 1 the Acd- i
the danger, started tothe rescue. Ali the people shouted, ‘“‘The ‘tzin, the ‘tzin!”
Xoli burst into ecstasy, and clapped his hands. ‘‘There he goes! Now look for something !”’
The rescuer went as a swift wind; but the clamor had been as a warning tothe young Othmi. By a great effort he tore away the Otompan’s shield. In vain the latter strug- gled. There was a flash, sharp, vivid, like the sparkle of the sun upon restless waters. Then his head drooped forward, and he stag- gered blindly. Once only the death stroke | was repeated ; and so still was the multitude that the dull sound of the knife driving home was heard. The ’tzin was too late.
The prospect for the Aztecs was now gloomy. The Cholulan and Otompan were dead ; the Tezcucan, wounded and bleeding, was engaged in a doubtful struggle with the Tlascalan ; the ’tzin was the last hope of his party. Upon him devolved the tight with the Othmies. In the interest thus excited Iztlil’s battle was forgotten.
Twice had the younger Othmi been victor, and still he was seathlesss. Instead of the maquihuitl, he was now armed with the jave- lin, which, while effective as a dart, was ex- cellent to repel assault.
From the crowded seats of the theatre not a sound was heard. At no time had the ex- citement risen to such a pitch. Breathless and motionless, the spectators awaited the advance of the 'tzin. He was, as I have said, a general favorite, beloved by priest and citizen, and with the wild soldiery an object of rude idolatry. And if, under the royal canopy there were eyes that looked not lov- ingly upon him, there were lips there mur- muring soft words of prayer for his success.
When within a few steps of the waiting Othmies, he halted. They giared at him in silence; then the old chief said tauntingly. and loud enoagh to be heard above the nvise of the conflict at his side:
‘‘A woman may wield a bow, and, from a distance, slay 4 warrior, but the maquahuit! is heavy in the hand of the coward, looking in the face of his foeman.”
The Aztec made no answer; he was fami- liar with the wile. Looking at the as if against him he intended his first attack with right hand back he swang the heavy weapon above his shoulder till it sung in quickening circles; when its force was fully collected, he suddenly huried it from him. The old Othmi crouched low behind his shield: but his was not the form in the tzin’s eyes; for right in the centre of the young victor’s guard the flying danger struck. Nor arm nor i shield might bar its way. The boy was lifted isheer abovethe body of the Otompan, and | driven backward as if shot from a catapult. | Guatamozin advanced nofurther. <A thrust of his javelin would have disposed of the old Othmi, now unarmed and helpless. The ac- i clamation of the audience, in which was bleut ‘the shrill voices of women, failed to arouse his passion. :
The sturdy chief arose from his crouching ; ‘he looked for the boy to whom he had so late- lly spoken of home; he saw him lying out- atretched, his face in the sand, and his shield, | so often bound with wreaths and garlands,

| MENT, lcure any case of Tetter, Salt Rheum, Ring-
demanding god ; but all the time the audience saw only the fortunate hero, standing so calmly before them, the dead at his feet, and the golden iight about him.
And the king was happy as the rest, and talked gaily, caring little for the living or the dead. The combat was over, and Quetzal’ not come. Mualox was a madman, nota prophet; the Aztecs had won, and the god was propitat-
;ed ; so the questioner of the morning flattered
himself !
‘Jf the Othmi cannot fight, he can serve for sacrifice. Let him be removed. And the dead—— But hold !” he cried, and his cheeks blanched with mortal pallor, ‘*Who comes yonder? Look to the arena—nay, to the people! By my father’s ashes, the paba shall perish! White hairs and prophet’s gifts shall not save him.”
While the king was speaking, Mualox, the keeper of the temple, rushed within the wall of shields His dress was disordered, and he was bareheaded and unsandalled. Over his shoulders and down his breast flowed his hair and beard, tangled and unkempt, wavy as a bilow and white asthe foam. Excitement flashed from every feature; and far as his vision ranged—in every quarter, ou every platferm—in the blood of others _he kindled his own unwoated passion.

The Government of Newfoundland.
It has been announced that Sit Terence O’Brien, governor of Heligoland, will succeed the present governor of Newfound- land, who is to be transferred to a more tropical colony. Governor Blake, who preceded Sir George Des Voeux in New- tuundland, accepted a transfer to the Bahamas. It appears says the St. John Sun, that the the governorship is not con- sidered desirable except to Newfoundland people, while.a native governor is not acceptable to the citizens. Sir Terence O’Brien, ‘the new appointee, has been occupying a position of no great eminence, his late colony beinga little rock four iundred acres in extent, inhabited by ibout two thousand fishermen, who do not speak English WHeligoland has lost its importarice asa military position, has uo garrison andis chiefly known as a place where some Hamburg folk go for bathing. The governor enjoys an allowance of £300 a year, which is one-tenth of the revenue of the colony. Sir Terence G’Brien will doubtless welcome an appointment gto a colony of 200,000 peuple, where he will have an official residence in a considerable city and receive an allowance of $12,000 Since the people of Newfoundland protest- ed against the appointment of one of their own most prominent men, they will not complain if the Imperial government is not able to get able men for the position.
