Experience will decide the proper dose in each case.

For Constipation, or Costiveness, no remedy is so effective as AYER’S PILLS. They insure regular daily action, and re- store the bowels to a healthy condition.

For Indigestion, or Dyspepsia, AYER’S PILLS are invaluable, and a sure cure,

Heart-burn, Loss of Appetite, Foul Stomach, Fhatulency, Dizziness, Head- ache, Numbness, Nausea, are all relieved and cured by AYER’S PILLS.

In Liver Complaint, Bilious Disorders, and Jaundice, AYEK’S Pritts should be given in doses large enough to excite the liver and bowels, and remove constipation. Asa cleansing medicine in the Spring, these PILLs are unequalled.

Worms, caused by a merbid condition of the bowels, are expelled by these PILLs.

Eruptions, Skin Diseases, and Piles, the result of Indigestion or Constipation, are cured by the use of AYER’S PILLS,

For Colds, take AYER’S PILLS to open the pores, remove inflammatory secretions, and allay the fever.

For Diarrhea and Dysentery, caused by

sudden colds, indigestible food, etc., AYER’S PILLs are the true remedy. . \' Rheumatism, Gout, Neuralgia, and Seiatica, often result from digestive derange- ment, or colds, und disappear on removing the cause by the use of AYER’S PILLS.

Tumors, Dropsy, Kidney Complaints, and other disorders caused by debility or obstruction, are cured by AYER’sS PILIs. |

butt of his whip. The summons brought) a sleepy cotter to the door.

‘My good friend,’ said the Major, ‘can you tell me how far it is to the next inn ?”

‘Eh? It be about zeven miles, zur, was the answer, in the broad Yorkshire dialect of the district.

‘Seven miles!’ exclaimed the Major, in atone of deep disappointment ; ‘and my horse is already blown! My good fellow, can’t you put him somewhere, and give me abed? I will pay you liberally for your trouble.’

‘Eh! gooduess-sakes |’ said the rustic. ‘I be nought but a ditcher. There be noa plaze to put the nag in, and there be ovly one room and one bed in the cot. ‘What shall I do?’ cried the Major, at his wit’s end.

‘l’ll tell ’ee, zur, said the rustic. ‘There bea voine large house on the road, about a moile vurther on. It’s noa an inp, but the Colcnel zees company vor the vun o’ the thing—’cause ho loikes to You must a heard ov him—Colonel Lawrence—as used to be a soger once.’

‘Say no more,’ cried the Major. ‘I have heard of this hospitable gentleman, and his having been in the army gives me a sure claim to bis attention. Here’s a crown for your information, ry good friend.’

The Major rode off, feeling an exhil- aration of spirits which soon communi- cated itself tothe horse. A sharp trot of a few minutes brought him to a large mansion, which stood by the roadside. Withont dismounting he plied the large brass knocker till a servant in livery made his appearance.

‘Is your master up?’ asked the Major.

‘I am the occupant of this house,’ said a venerable gentleman, making his ap- pearance at the hall door.

‘Tam a benighted traveler, sir,’ said the Major, touching his hat, ‘and come to claim your well-known hospitality. Can you give me a bed for the night? ’

‘I cannot promise you a bed, sir,’ said the host, ‘for I have but one spare bed in the house, and that happens to be in a room that does not enjoy a very pigeing reputation. In short, sir, one room of my house is haunted, and that is the only one, unfortunately, that I can place at your disposal to-night.’

‘My dear sir, said the Major, spring- ing from his horse and tossing the bridle to the servant, ‘you enchant me beyond expression! A haunted chamber! The very thing—and J, who have never seen a ghost! What luck!’

The Colonel shook his head gravely.

‘I never knew a man,’ he said, ‘to pass a night in that chamber without regret- ting it.’

Major Hill laughed as he took his pistols from the hobitar pipes. ‘With these friends of mine,’ he said, ‘I fear neither ghost nor demon.’

Colonel Lawrence showed his guest into a comfortable parlor, where a sea- ‘coal fire was burning cheerfully in a grate, and refreshments most welcome to a weary traveller stood upon a table.

The Major’s attention was drawn toward a charming girl of twenty, the daughter of the Colonel, who graced the table with her presence. Never, he thought, had he seen so beautiful, so modest and so lady-like a creature ; and she, in turn, seemed very favorably im- pressed with the marly beauty and frank manners of their military guest.

At length she retired. The Colonel, who had found a listner, was inclined to prolong the session into the smal! hours of the morning, but fiuding that his guest was much fatigued, he felt compelled to ask him if he would not like to retire.

Major Hill promptly replied in the

4 thousand boxes, /to the door and rapped loudly with the| Second door, but a heavy table placed

across completely barricaded it.

He threw himself into an arm-chair before the fire, and amused himself with building castles in the air, and musing on the attractions of the fair Laura, the host’s daughter. He was far enough from thinking of spectral visitants, when a very slight noise struck on his ear. Glancing inthe direction of the inner door he thought he saw the heavy table glide backward from its place. Quick as thought he caught up a pistol and challenged the intruder. There was no reply—but the door continued to open and the table to slide hack. At last there glided into the room a tall, grace- ful figere robed in white.

At the firsc glance the blood curdled in the Major’s veins; at the second he recognized the daughter of the host. Her eyes were wide open, aud she ad- vanced with an“assured step; but it was very evident that she was asleep. Here was the mystery of the White Phantom solved at once. ‘The young girl walked to the fireplace and seated herself in the arm-chair from, which the soldier bad

just risen.

She raised her left hand, and gazing on a beautiful ring that adorned one of her white taper fingers, pressed it repeat- edly toher lips. She then sank into an attitude of repose, her arms drooping listlessly by her side.

The Major approached her and stole the ring from her finger. His action disturbed, but did not awaken her. She seemed to miss the ring, however, and after groping hopelessly for it, rose and glided through the doorway as silently as she had eutered. She had no sooner retired than the Major replaced the table, and drawiug a heavy clothes press against it, effectually guarded himself against a second intrusion.

This done, he threw himself upon the bed, and slept soundly till a late hour of the morniog. Afier performing the duties of his toilet>-he was summonod to breakfast, where he met the Colonel and his daughter.

‘Well, Major, and how did you pass the night!’ asked the Colonel, avxiously.

‘Famously,’ replied Hill. ‘I slept like a top, as I told you I should.’

‘Then, thank heaven, the spell is broken at last,’ said the Colonel; and the White Phantom has vanished.’

‘By no means,’ said the Major, smil- ing; ‘the White Phantom paid me a visit last night. and left me a token of the honor.’

‘A token |’ exclaimed the daughter in a breath,

‘Yes, my friends, and here it is.’ And the Major handed the ring to the old gentleman.

‘What’s the meaning of this, Lanra”’ exclaimed the Colonel. ‘This ring I gave you last week.’

Laura uttered a faint cry, and turned deadly pale,

“The mystery is easily explained,’ said

father and

the major. ‘The young lady is a sleep- walker. She came into my room before

I had retired, utterly unconscious of her actions. I took the ring from her band, that ¥ might be able to convince you and her of the reality of what I had witness- ed.’

The major’s business was not pressing, and he readily yielded to the Colonel's urgent request to pass a few days with bim. Their mutual liking increased upon better acquaintance, and in a few weeks the White Phantom’s ring, in- scribed with the names of Merrit Hill avd Laura Lawrence, served as a sacred symbo! of their union for life.
