“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 80 well as Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral which always gives prompt relief in returns of my old complaint.” — Ernest A. Hepler, ot of Public Roads, Parish Ter- re Bonne, La.

‘IT consider Ayer’s Cherry Pectoral a most important remedy

For Home Use. ;

ZT 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 began 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 my life.”— Samuel Griggs, Waukegan, Ill.

‘Six years ago I contracted a severe cold, which settled on my lungs and soon developed all the alarming sym toms of Consumption. I had a cough, night sweats, b poding of the lungs, pains in chest and sides, and was so

rostrated as to be confined ed 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, Til.

THE DAILY EXAMINER.

OCTOBER 25, 1889.

The Tylodendron.

Ir is now more than twenty years since, with a youthful companion, we spent the afternoon of a summer day on the breezy shores of St. Peter’s Island. We were no geologist then, but there was the same charm in the wild rocky shore, and the sunlit wave, and the breeze, and the $foam that there is to-day, and with keen delight we explored the treasures of rock and reef. Among other things we picked up what appeared to be the fossilized washed out of the brown, rocky escarpment, at whose foot it lay. We carried it home as a_ boyish treasure, and added it tu our store of un- accountable things in the attic. Here we paid it many a visit, examining it over and over, vainly endeavoring to understand its character. We read much on geolog cal subjects, but the books threw no light on this peculiar specimen. At length a bright idea struck us. We took our speci- men down from its dingy lair, and made a clear and accurate drawing of it, and sent the drawing to the great Professor (now Sir William) Dawson. He suggested that it might be the limb of an ancient pine tree. And there the matter rested for years. In

the meantime, this class of fossil was being

diligently studied in the extensive Permian fields of Europe by the indefatigable Weiss and others, who discovered that it gener- ally represented only the pith of coniferous trees. When Sir William became acquainted with this fact, he wrote to me to search for more perfect specimens of Tylodendron (for such the fossil was now called) on the Island. Ac- cordingly, during the present summer, I de- voted some time to this object.

At Gallas Point, Tylodendra arefound as small cylindrical shaits of brown flint, an inch and « half in diameter, their surfaces sculptured with regular interrupted ridges. Usually these are seen knocking about the grey sand beach; but ina fresh rock-slide from the cliff, | found one enclosed in the mass of a large fossilized trunk, showing that it was but the enormous pith of a good sized tree. After this discovery I visited the brown cliffs on the southern shore of St. Peter’s Island. At the eastern point where the waves have worn the rock into

/hecad.« sarin tewraces, the prostrate, branching trunks of fossil trees are seen imbedded in the rocky floor. From an acyuaintance with the wood of Tylodendron, we can identify them as such; ard here I had an opportunity of observing both the /external appearance of,the stems and the general mode of growth of the trees. On towards the lighthouse the massive grey beds are all streaked and patched with purple, where the organic acids have de- posited manganetic and iron oxides. These patches are often very hard, aad fragments of purple rock pave the beach out to low water mark, In this breccia are seen endless fragments of the stems, limbs, and twigs of Tylodendra. But they are only fragments—chips and splinters from the ruthless axes of time. It was among these splinters that I found the foliage of the ancient tree. A nice speci- men it was—a twig with a number of pinnate leaves attached, all § en- closed in an iron clay nodule. By splitting open some grey beds, beautifully preserved twigs were exposed showing clearly the bases to which the leaves were attached, and the circular marking, where the fruit was borne. Here also was discovered the fruit, consisting of a globular capsule con- taining four angular seeds. These were in such a state of preservation, that when first disturbed they rolled out of their shell per- fect in formas the brown nuts gathered from among the autumn leaves of our wood lands.

It wasalong hunt. Twenty years of waiting, studying and searching. But now the ancient beauty stood before us in all its perfection,a realjtreasure of forest loveliness restored from the wrecks of a long-lost creation. A majestic trunk, several feet in diameter, clothed with a ridged and furrow-

ed bark, raised aloft far extending arms ‘that ramified by simple

forking. The younger branches were covered with large

leaves. These clothed the whole a rich and peculiar drapery which made it the most elegant conifer of the ancient Per- mian forest.

Plenty of Heirs, but No Estate. A Pittsburg, Pa., despatch says: There are 1200 people in Western Pennsylvania | and Ohio who for several years past have considered themselves the heirs of Colonel Henry Baker, a Philadelphia revolution- soldier. He was said to have died, leaving lands and money now estimated at $500,- ,000, and an association was formed and attorneys retained to look up titles and secure the fortune. The lands were said to be located in Philadelphia, 200 of the 600 acres being in Fairmount Park. Rosy reports were sent to the heirs and about $10,000 was paid to the lawyer in fees. Recently W. J. Jordon, an attorney of this city, and W. H. Swoger and A OC. Case- bier, twu of the heirs, searched the re- cords at Washington, Harrisburg, and Philadelphia, only to tind that there had never been a Colonel Henry Baker at Phil-

adelphia, and there was no Baker estate. C. B. VV maPaP Set) | Philndetphin lawyers and newspaper re-
