‘Best of All
Cough medicines, Ayer’s Cherry Peo. toral is in greater demand than ever.’ No preparation for Throat and Lung Troubles is so prompt in its effects, so agreeable to the taste, and so widely known, as this. It is the family medi- cine in thousands of households.
“T have suffered for years from a bronchial trouble that, whenever I take cold or am exposed to inclement weath- er, shows itself by a very annoying tickling sensation in the throat and by difficulty in breathing. I have tried a great many remedies, but none does so well as Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral w always gives prompt relief in returns of my old complaint.” — Ernest A. Hepler,
Inspector of Public Roads, Parish Ter- re Bonne, La.
‘I consider Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral a most important remedy
For Home Use.
¥ have tested its curative power,in my family, many times during the past thirty years, and have never known it to fail. It will relieve the most serious affections of the throat and lungs, whether in children or adults.’”?” — Mrs. E. G. Edgerly, Council Bluffs, Iowa.
“Twenty years ago I was troubled with a disease of the lungs. Doctors afforded me no relief and considered my case hopeless. I then n to use Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral, and, before I had finished one bottle, found relief. I continued to take this medicine until a cure was effected. I believe that Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral saved ay. life.”” — Samuel Griggs, Waukegan, Il.
“Six years ago I contracted a severe cold, wu settled on my lungs and soon developed all the alarming vom toms of Consumption. I had a coug night sweats, bleeding of the lungs, pains in chest and sides, and was so
rostrated as to be confined to my
d most of the time. After trying various prescriptions, without benefit, my physician finally determined to give me Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral. I took it, and the effect was magical. I seemed to rally from the first dose of this medicine, and, after using only three bottles, am as well and sound as ever.” — Rodney Johnson, Springfield, ILL

Winter CarnivaL.—We have received a very compactly arranged and neatly printed pamphilet-programme of the carnival to be held in Montreal next month. The festivities will begin with the opening of the toboggan slides on the 4th Feb., and will close on the evening of the 9th with hockey and skatiag matches, toboganning, snow-shoe club dinner, and grand fireworks display and illumination of ice palace and public buiidings. In addi- tion to the programme, the pamphlet contains an interesting sketeh of Montreal and a good deal ot other information.

Strupip.—Canada’s Comic Paper, Grip, is at times spicy, but often obtuse. In its last issue it gives the ‘‘ Portrait uf Sam Fee, the eminent Chincse Engineer of the Marine De- partment, under whose auspices the new steamer for the P. E. Island service was brought from the Old Couatry.” It is evi- dently intended for Mr. McElhinney, yet the likeness and intention are so indiscernible that it would have been better had Mr. Bengough given an explanation like unto the small boy
who, when drawing a rude dwelling, never failed to write underneath ‘This is a house.” ccbiiasadiieadeisct Boston’s WeaitH.—The Bosten Herald
each year publishes a statement of the taxes
Jlevied on individuals and corporations, the
figures given in which are carefully taken from the books of the assessors. The list published a few days ago shows that more than $200,000,000 of peisenal property is taxed, and more than $563,000,000 of real estate. The actnal amount of wealth in the city is, of course, only faintly indicated by the $200,- 000,000 of personal estate which the assessors found. Large sums are invested in untaxable bonds, and great sums are undoubtedly con- cealed, while still other vast sums, partly re- presented by the $!00,000,000 which are an- nually paid in dividends to Bostonians, are invested in other States and taxed there. —_——__—_—____++ +9 —_____—— Personal,

Rising from the obeisance with which he accompanied the words, he said, boldly :
‘**Cholula should be the grave of the invad- ers. The whole population should strike them in the narrow streets where they can best be assailed. Shut up in some square {or temple, ra, will Gght them for us, and win. But would not trust the citizens alone. In sight of the temples, so close that a conch could summon them to the attack, I would encamp a hundred thousand warriors. Better the desolation of Cholula than Tenoch- titlan. If all things else failed, I would take to the last resort; I would call in the waters of Tezcuco and drown the city to the highest azoteas. So would I, O king, if the crown and signet were mine,” serene looked from the speaker to the
ake.
** The project is bold,” he said musingly; ‘* but if 1 failed, my son?”
‘* The failure should be but the beginning of the war.”
‘* What would the nations say?”
‘*They would say, ‘ Montezuma is still the great king.’ If they do not that——”
‘* What then?”
“Callon the teotuct!, The gods can be made speak whatever your policy demands.”
‘** Does my son blaspheme?” said Monte- zuma angrily.
“* Nay, [ but spoke of what has happened. Long rule the good god of our fathers |”
Yet the monarch was not satisfied. Never before had discourse been addressed to him in strain so bold.
‘* They see all things, even our hearts,” he said, turning coldly away. ‘Farewell. A courier will come for you when your presence is wanted in the city.”
And so they separated, conscious that no healing had been brought to their broken friendship. As the canoe moved off, the ’tzin knelt, but the king looked not that way again.
.
CHAPTER IIL.
LOVE ON THE LAKE,
““What can they mean? Here have they been loitering since morning, as if the lake, like lianguez, were a place for idlers. As I love the gods, if I knew them, they should be punished |”,
So the farmer of the chinampa, heretofore described as the property of the princess Tula gave expression to his wrath ; after which he returned to his employment; that is he went crawling among the shrubs and flowers, pruning-knife in hand, here clip- ping a limb, there loosening the loam. Emerg- ing from the thicket after a protracted stay, his ire was again aroused.
“Still there! Thieves, maybe, watching a chance to steal. But we shall see. My work is done, and I will not take eyes off them again.”
The good man’s aiarm was occasioned by the occupants of a canoe, which, since sun- rise, had been plying about the garden, never stationary, seldom more than three hundred yards away, yet always keeping on the side next the city. Once ina while the slaves withdrew their paddles, leaving the vessel to the breeze; at such times it drifted so neai that he could see the voyayeurs reclining in the shade of the blue canopy, wrapped escaupils such as none but lords or distinguished merch- ants were permitted to wear,
The leisurely voyageurs, on their part, ap- peared to have a perfect understanding of the light in which they were viewed from the chinampa.
“*'There he them.
The other lifted the curtain, and looked, and laughed.
Ah! if we could send an arrow there, just near enough to whistle throrgh the orange- trees. Tula would never hear the end of the story. He would tell her how two thieves came to plunder him ; how they shot at him; how narrowly he escaped———”’
‘*‘And how valiantly he defended the gar- den. By Our Mother, Io’, havea mind to try him !”
Hua!pa half rose to measure the distance, but fell back at once.
‘No. Better that we get into no difficulty. We are messengers, and have these flowers to deliver. Besides, the judge is not to my liking.”
‘* Tula is merciful, and would forgive you for the 'tzin’s sake.”
“T meant the judge of the court,” Hualpa said soberly. ‘‘ You never saw him lift the golden arrow as if to draw it across your por- trait It is pleasanter sitting here in the shade, rocked by the water,”
‘* And pleasanter yet to be made noble and master of a palace over by Chapultepec,” Io’ answered “But see! Yonder is a canoe.”
** From the city r’
** Tt is too far off; wait awhile.” |} But Hualpa, impatient, leaned ‘over the side |and looked for himself. At the time they were up in the northern part of the lake, lat least a league from the capital. Long, | regular swells, something like those of the sea when settling into calm, tumbled the sur- |face ; far to the south, however, he discerned ithe canoe, looking no larger than a blue-wing- ed gull. | ‘It is coming ; I see the prow this way. Is | the vase ready ”” | *‘* The vase! You forgot ; there are two of | them.”
Hualpa looked‘down confused.
‘*Does the ’tzin intend them “ula?”
Hualpa was the more embarrased. | “Flowers have a meaning’; sometimes they | tell tales. Let me see if I cannot read what ithe ‘tzin would say to Tula?” | And Io’ went forward and brought the vases,

both fo:
, and, placing them hefore him began to study
each tlower.
** jo,” sail Hualpa, ina low voice, ‘* but one of the vases is tine 'tuin’s.”
‘* And the other?” asked the prince, looking up.
Hualpa’s face flushed deeper.
**The other is mine. Have you not two sisters 7” :
Io's eyes dilated ; a moment he was serious, then he burst out laughing.
‘**I have you now! Nenetzin—she, too, has 'a lover. | The hunter never found himself so ata loss ; he played with the loops of his escaupil, and
