The whole transaetion is now ,

now why bonds lacking cer- i

nsalnble.
This is a correct solution of one
f the most interesting puzzles .
t the age. If Mr. Benjamin had '
ved it would not have been giv- \

frees the giver of the iu>rmation
from the necessity ol

Warren Lelund,
whom everybody knows as the successful
manager of the
Largest Hotel Enterprises
of America, says that white a passenger from
New York on board a ship gobig around Capo
Horn, In tlia early days of emigration to California,
be learned that one of the officers of
the vessel had cured himself, during the Toyof
ao obstinate disease by the oet of j
Ayer s Sarsaparilla.
Since then Mr. Lulakd has recommended
Aveh's SAnsAFAKiLLA in many similar
oases, and he has never yet beard of Its fail*
tiro to effect a radical cure.
Somo years ago one of Mr. Lst.axi>'b farm
laborers bruised bis leg. Owing to tbe bad
state of bis blood, an ugly scrofulous swelling
or lump appeared on tbe injured limb. Horrlblo
itching of tbe akin, with burning and
darting pains through tbe lump, made life
almost intolerable. Tbe leg beeamo enormously
enlarged, and running ulcers formed,
discharging great quantities ot extremely
offensive matter. Ko treatment was of any
avail until the man, by Mr. Lelakd's direction,
wu supplied with Avail's 8absafahill
a, which allayed the pain and Irritation,
healed the sores, removed tbe swelling, and
eomplately restored the limb to use.
Mr. Lbiaxd has personally used
Ayer's Sarsaparilla
for Rheumatism, with entire mcoees; and,
after careful observation, declares that, In
his belief, there is no medicine in the world
equal to It for the cure of Liver Disorder*,
Gout, be effect* of Ugh living. Salt
Bhrtm, dsns, Kruptlons, and aH the
Tar ions forma of blbod disease *
We have Mr. Lblakd's permission to Invite
all who may desire farther AtUonM in
to the extraordinary curative powers of
A Yen's 8iturA)ULU to see him personally
either at his mammoth Ocean Hotel, 4
Long Branch, or at the popular Leland Hotel,
Broadway, 87th and 28th Streets, New York.
Mr. Lklabd's extensive knowledge of the
?ooddono by this unequalled emdieator of
