The tester consists of iron case about ten inches long and six On the top of the case is a scale and intlicator to mark the strength of the pull, which is made by means of a handle at the end of the case.

tefore the tester will work, however, a cent has to be dropped into a slot at the side. The idea of dropping the cent in is that it overbalances a lever which checks the springs if not lowered. This machine is the property of Mr. John Burns, steward of the Heather Belle.

Tue Hyers Sisrers.—Speaking of a recent performance of the Hyers Sisters Comedy Co., which opens at the Lyceum on Friday next, the Halifax Chronicle says: The Hyers Sisters Comedy Company made their first appearance in the academy of music last night to a fair audience. The piece presented was the ‘* great moral drama, ‘ Out of Bondage, by Rev. Joseph Bradford, D. D., of Boston; a realistic picture of Southern life before and after the war.” There is no plot in the piece, it evidently being designed entirely to give opportunity for the introduction of the solos, chorouses and specialties, some twenty pieces in all being rendered. The singing was good, both im the solos and chorouses, most of it toa marked degree. The performances by the Hyers sisters were much above the ordinary, both of them having highly cultivated voices, which they use to advantage. — A second perform- ance will be given to-night.

Mr. Stavert, during his brief stay in Moncton, has made many friends among the business people of the town and his removal will he regretted.

This medicine-is an Alterative, and causes a radical change in the system. The process, in some cases, may not be quite so rapid as in others; but, with persistence, the result is certain. lead these testimonials : —

‘* For two years U suffered from a se- vere pain in my right side, and had other troubles cau by a torpid liver and dyspepsia. A¥ter giving several medicines a fair trial without a cure, I began to take Ayer’s Sarsaparilla. I was greatly benefited by the first bottle, and after taking five bottles I was com- pletely cured.”’—Johnn W. Benson, 70 Lawrence st., Lowell, Mass.

Last May a large carbuncle broke out on my arm. The usual remedies had no effect and I was confined to my bed for eight weeks. A friend induced me to try Avyer’s Sarsaparilla. Less than three bottles healed the sore. In all my expe- rience with medicine, I never saw more

Wonderful Results.

Another marked effect of the use of this medicine was the strengthening of my sight."—Mrs. Carrie Adams, Holly Springs, Texas.

“‘T had a dry scaly humor for years, and suffered terribly ; and, as my broth- er and sister were similarly afflicted, I presume the malady is hereditary. Last winter, Dr. Tyron, (of Fernandina, Fla.,) recommended me to take Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, and continue it for a year. For five months I took it daily. I have not had a blemish upon my body for the last three months.”—T. E. Wiley, 146 Chambers st., New York City.

‘*Last fall and winter I was troubled with a dull, heavy pain in my side. did not notice it much at first, but it gradually grew worse until it became almost unbearable. During the latter part of this time, disorders of the stom- ach and liver increased my troubles. I began taking Ayer’s Sarsaparilla, and, after faithfally continuing the use of this medicine for some months, the pain disappeared and I was completely cured.’’ — Mrs. Augusta A.
