Mrs. Salllo Snydor, daughter of Col. J.

ful Illness of two wooks. She leaves a

There was a pitiful sight on tbo streets
last Wednesday. It was tho coldest day
of the season aud biting winds were
blowing. On a pallet in a smsll wagon
lay a middle aged man. Rheumatism
had destroyed tbo power of hin limbs
and he was belog drawn from door to
door begging.
It was said that he had left at homo a
wife and ten children depondout on tho
obsrltablo for bread.
There woro no indications of fraud
about the man and ids sad story was
probably true. It was a very oU/eotlye
appeal to tbo liborabty of passers by.
Whether it was anybody's duty to help
the man is another affair. Disregarding
the lact that tho follow who was pulliug
him about was halo and strong and
might have boon toiling for his friend
instoad of.assisting him in bogtdng, the
question ot tho wisdom of oncouraglug
mondloaucv comos up.
We are taxed to support poor-houses
aud the country is full of refuges for tho
unfortunato. If a man starvos it is hiH
own fault. If we glvo to ouo beggar,
though apparontly tho most deserving,
do we not oncourago others? And aro
qot a largo percentage, of beggars
frauds?
We beliovo that It Is wrong in prinol
plo to give to beggars and that if tho pub
lic would discouutcnanco them that
thoir mluorios Would Und plenty of ro
liof in tho places provided by law.
In cases whoro a man asks help to get
on his feot again, wlion ho is burned out
for instance, it is different und his
neighbor ("neighbor" in tho scriptural
sonso) should lend a hand.

'THEY ALL SAY
Tnat for purifying the bjtoou, strengthening the appetite, re
moving that tired feeling, and building up the system, Ayer's
Sarsaparille? is the best. No other blood medicine is so rapid
in its effects nor so permanent in its results. .
" I was ri preat sufferer from a low
condition of UM Mood and general de
bility, becoming finally so reduced that
I rras tiMtvt for work. Nothing that I
did for the complaint helped mo so
much as Ayer's S n aparilln. a few bot
tles of which restored me to health and
th. 1 take every opportunity to
recdmmeod this tuedlolrie in similar
oases." ? V. Evfck, U East Mala st.,
OttilllCOtke, Ohio.
"Sometime ago I found my system
entirely run down. I had i\ feeling of
constant fatlguu and languor and very
little ambition for any kind of effort. A
friend advised mo to try Ayer's Sarsapa
rilln. which I did with the best results.
It lui3 c'.ono me moro good than all
O?jer medicines I have ever used."?P,

"My constitution Is naturally delicate,

atid languid that I was unable to per
form my work, which Is mental. A fine
eruption, which gave much trouble and
distress, made Its appearance on my
skin. The physicians' proscriptions
proving of no avail, l was Induced to
try Ayer's Sarsaparilla, and soon my
strength returned and my sklu resumed
its natural appearance For a tonlo,
blood-purifier, and general health
restore r, I can heartily recommmid
Ayer's Sarsttparllla." ? Miss Maggie

"Ayer's Sarsaparilla has a well-deserved
reputation In this locality for restoring to
healthy, vigorous action tho vital organs
of tho body when they havo become weak
ened or exhausted. I havo used it hi my
family for this purpose, especially after
the system had become depleted from
malarial attacks."?Charles C. Hamilton,
Bmberson, Texas.
"After years of experience as a druggist,
during which time I have seen, handled,
and heard of blood-purifiers almost with
out number, 1 can conscientiously say that,
tor genuine merit, I regard Ayer's Sarsa
parilla as without a rival. This medicine
has always inspired and deserved confi
dence, and at no time has It ever had so
great a hold upon tho public as at tho
present day."?Gcorgo Lhmott, Dispensing
