What makes you look that way? There
certainly must he some good reason for it. If
your tongue is coated, if you are bilious, if
your head aches, if your food rests heavy on
your stomach, and if you are constipated,
then the whole trouble is with your liver.
What you need is a good liver pill, an easy
liver pill, a purely vegetable liver pill. You
need a box of Aycr's Pills, that's what you
need. These pills cure constipation, bilious
ness, dyspepsia, and siek headache.
2r* conlN a box. All druggists.
* I always keep ;i l?ox of Ayer's Pills on hand. There Is no pill
iln-ir equal lor a liver regulator. Long ago they cured mo of liver
complaint and chronic constipation."?-S. L. Sl'ELLMAN, Columbus,

He thinks he lives, but he's a dead
one. No person is really alive whose
liver is dead. During the winter
most people spend nearly all their time
111 warm, stuffy houses or offices or
workshops. Many don't get as much
exercise as they ought, and everybody
knows that people gain weight in
winter. As a rule it is not sound
weight, but means a lot of flabby fat
and useless, rotting matter staying in
the body when it ought to have been
driven out. But the liver was over
burdened, deadened?stopped work. There
you arc, with a dead liver, and spring is the
time for resurrection. Wake up the dead!
Get all the filth out of your system, and get
ready for the summer's trials WMf>rfcan, clear blood, body, brain Iree lrom bile. horc?
is dangerous and destructive unless used in a gentle persuasive way, and the right plan
is to give new strength to the muscular walls of the bowels, and stir up the liver to new

I they say, llio mountain was illumined
in a wonderful manner under ilie in

The upper part of it seemed to be ,111

f roin t lie "Star of I lay."
One evening, altera day of rain that
liad washed all the dust from the moun

lion was greater than usual, and I-lalh
er Tor Maat decided to seek the ejeae;

the highest peak. (>.sss feet above ihe

The only explanation t>f the increased

the rain washed nwav all particles that.

WANTS TO SELL HIS BODY.
Contortionist Want* a Customer for III!
()or|i*e.
Although by no cleans desiring to
&hulllc off this mortal coll, Walter
Wont worth wants to soil his body. Ho
lias done it twice already in hit? life
time, and now. although in his seven
ty-fifth year, he is looking about for
another purchaser, and if he finds one,
lie thinks he has a good clianee of sur
viving him. too. says the New Yqrk
Herald. Walter is what is ordinarily^
called a "freak." II.; is a extortion
ist, and tlie queer things he does With
his legs and his arms, and even ?bU
fepinal column, are enough (o make
the eyes of the ordinary person bulge
out to a dangerous extent. F.ven physi
cians are puzzled at the curious way
in whleh he handles himself, and it
was a doctor who lir.st sugge.ied to
Wentworth the idea of selliV* h?s
body. It was Just sixty years afA that
Wentworth ran away from his home
near Detroit, Mich., to ride race horses.
Then he joined a traveling circus and
went the whole,>vorld over. With all
his knocking about and the seventy
five years he carries, lie is just as live
ly and supple as a 15-year-old boy. It
was while he was being exhibited In
Detroit in 1870 that tie got a chance to
sell himself. Dr. Cowo was greatly in
terested in him. and offered $100 for ?
his body after be had done with It,
for dissecting purposes. Wentworth
Jumped ?t the offer; tho money was
paid down. The doctor, however, con
veniently died within a few months.
Wentworth came to .New York five
?jyearsgater, and was able on the trip
to persuade I)r. H. L. Wilder of the
Kings county hospital to take stock
in Uim at the same, price, a case of
getting in on the basement floor if Dr.
Wilder should live. He thinks Dr.
Wilder will be unable to fill his part ?
of the contract. Ho Is therefore anx
ious to find somebody else who wili
invest in him. *
It was observer! at I ho first per form j
an?-e of Sonsa's band In IIitr Ainerk.ifi
section of the Pnrls Exposition that
the enthusiasm of the great nudl?nc?^
of American* that gntbu^d tn hPRT-lf
did not break all hountfl&^intll the
? Cake Walk" and other ratf-tune piece*
"were played. Then the American col- $
onj became delirious. It rianc*! nmf-r;
whooped and demanded enc?#es nttiil %~-i
the band was exhausted. The Frenc*- ?
DW prtmut couldn't POdemtapd *' ' j
