Ague Gure
Is a rurelr vecetable litter and powerful
tonic, and is warranted a speedy and cer
tain cure for Fever and Ague, Chills and
Fever, Intermittent or Chill Fever, Re
mittent Fever, Dumb Ague, Periodical
or Ifilious rever, and all malarial ais
orders. In miasmatic districts, the rapid
pulse, coated ton.tie, thirst, lassitude, loss of
apietite, pain in the back and loins, and cold-
no of the spine and extremities, aro only
premonitions of severer symptoms which
terminate in the a?ue paroxysm, succeeded
by hiyh fever and proluse perspiration.
It is a 8tartlinjf fact, that quinine, arsenic,
and other rtoisonous minerals form the basis
of most of the " Fever ami Ague Prepara
tions," "Specifics," Syrups," and "Ton
ics,- in me lnarKet. toe preparations maue
from these mineral poisons, although they
are palatable, and may break the chill, do
not cure, but leave the malarial and their
own drujr poison in the system, producing
quinism, dizziness, ringing in the ears, head
ache, vertigo, and other disorders more for
midable than the disease they were intended
to cure. Ayer's Ague Cike thoroughly
eradi. ates these noxious poisons from the
system, and always cures the severest cases.
It contains no quinine, mineral, or any thing
that could injure the most delicatei patient:
and its crowning excellence, above its cer
taint v to cure, is that it leaves the svstem as
free from disease as before the attack.
For Liver Complaints, Ateb's Agcb
Cl ke, by direct action on the liver and bil
iary apparatus, drives out the poisons which
produce these complaints, and stimulates the
system to a vigorous, healthy condition.
We warrant it when taken according to
directions.

No organ of thought or action can be employ

Mr. Jaies I. Fellows : Dear Sir : During
the past tw years I have given vour Com
pouud Syrup of Hypophosphiteo a fair though
somewhat severe trial in my practice, aud am
able to speak with confidence of its effects. In
restoring persons suffering from emaciation and
the debility lollowing Diphtheria, it has done
wonders. 1 constantly recommend its use in all
alTfCtiuus of the throat and litugd. In several
cases considered hopeless, it has given relief,
and the patients are fast recovering ; among
these are Consumptive and old Bronchial sub
jects, whose dis ases have resisted the other
nodes of treatment. For impaired digestion,
and In fact for debility from auy cause, 1 know
of nothing equal to it. Its direct effect in
strengthening the nervous system renders it
suitable for the majority of diseases. lam sir
yours truly, Wm. S. Howe, M. D. '
Note. It is only the intlepeHitcut.ir-U-ro.it-el
and mj IHxh Phyxiclanx who can afford to
prescribe this remedy. E.xwrience ha- pioved
this. The highest class medical men in every
large city where it i- known, recommend it.

Scriptural ScapeffoaU.
In famous sanctnary an insurance secretary.
Very cool and calm and wary, heard his pas
tor preach and pray ;
And this piou-i person wondered at deuuueia
tions thundered
' 'Gainst some wretches who had blundered.
in a long forgotten day.
And had sadly gone astray.
Then he thought: Our well-paid preacher,
like a careful sort of teacher,
Speaks of sinners out of reach, or sins that
may be out of date;
But he never hurts our feelings by unseemly,
harsh revealing
Of the modern style of stealings, unJei
which the rich and great
Rob the people or the state.
Tis as it should be, surely; we aro for re
ligion, purely,
And can listi n qui'.e demurely to the oft-ro
pea ted tale;
For wo have no part or lot in thoseold sinners,
rank and rotten.
AYho so scandalously got in scrapes that
ought to fill the jail;
Cultured minds default or fall.
Some disciples have recorded different du
that the Lord did
When he scorned the rich and sordid, and
tmheld the moor and meek;
When he scourged the money-changers, and
explained to Jewish arrangers
Foiuts about the sort of dangers that will
make the rich men squeak
When the heavenly land iftey seek.
But the present dispensation sees a vast ex
aggeration
In the harsh denunciation that is written as
the Lord's.
Now the rich man is in favor, salt that loses
not its savor,
Whe i the marble-cutter's graver his sue
cessful lifo records.
And his heirs divide his hoards.

"Such a bargain, Aunt Fanuyl Lay
asitle your work and express your au
mi i .it inn. Haifa dozen ol" these met
tv linen collai'8 for one dollar! So
nicely scolloped and stitched; just the
tiling lor the mornm";, are tlicy notr '
Exactly, Julia. They arc a very
desirable 'addition to your bridal
wardrobe. Hut 1 cannot but regret
thai they are not higher priced.
Why. Aunt Fiinnv! vou astonish
nie.. I had no idea that you were one
of those ladies who think nothing
worth having unless it costs an extrav
agant price."
"And vou are much in error if you
think so now, Julia. But in looking
at your cheap collars my sympathy is
called forth for the poor seamstress,
whose weary fii!rcrs performed the
task which was to procure her a
wretched subsistence."
"Oh, it is all very true. Aunt Fanny
and I am sure I pity the poor workers
as m nc h as any one; but as long as
this evil exists I may as well reMp this
benefit of it. You know that it is an
ill wind that blows nobody good."
Aunt Fanny phook her head gravely
as fchc replird :
You sjeak li-h.ly, Julia. May
you never have reason to know the
mi tiering which springs from this want
of union of the interests of the em
ployer and employed. But enough of
this. Let u- speak of your approach
ing marriage. Tell me when the wed
ding is to take place, and all about it."
"In two short weeks. I am to be
married at my guardian's, of course.
You know he does not quite approve
of the marriage ; or, at least, he would
prefer that we should wait until Hen
ry is established in business; but I
have coaxed him into good humor.
You know he might as well submit
with a good graoc, for I shall be eigh
teen on my wedding day, and my lit
tle property comes into my own ha:i.!..
So we shall begin life in tiie style
which we intend (o keep up a hand
some house, well furnished, and in a
ulcasant Dart of the city. You shuke
your head, but you will see that it
will all end well. And now say
will you grant the earnest request of
Henry and myself, and' make your fu
ture home with us? I shall need an
adviser, and you shall be my second
mother."
"My dear child! your kindness
brings tears to my eyes. Bnt I cannot
accept your invitation at least not at
present. A few days ago I received
an urgent request from an aged rela
tive in England to como to her and be
her companion and friend for the re
mainder of her life. She is wealthy,
but lonely in her rich- 8, and being
nearly blind, is much dependent on
the kindness of those around her. At
pivsent there are none but servants to
administer to her wants. She wa3 the
sister of my own dear mother, and I
feel it to bo my duty to go to her and
do what 1 can for her comfort. I sail
in t lie next steamer. "
"Before the wedding? Why, Aunt
Fanny, you will not leave us so soon?"
"My prayers will be with you and
yours, dear Julia, but it is necessary
that 1 hasten my departure as much
as possible. Do not forget your old
friend, and in the midst of your hap
piness sometimes remember the words
of advice which she has so ofteu spo
ken.' With many tears the young maiden
bade adieu to one who, though in re
ality no relative, had long been a val
ued friend.
Julia Howard had become an or
phan iu early childhood. Her father's
dying charge placed her under the
caro of a person who in man)' respects
was worthy of the trust, and had well
performed the duty which devolved
upon him. ,
At seventeen 6he became attached to
Henry Lawrence, a young man of good
family and unblemished character.
Her guardian heartily approved the
connection, but, as Julia stated to
Aunt Fanny, preferred that the young
couple should wait until Henry was
established iu business; but this pru
dent advice was not followed,
Henry's prospects were good Julia
had a few thousands. Why not begin
the world at once?
So on the very day when, by pecu
liar coincidence, the bridegroom was
twenty-one and the bride eighteen,
they stood at the altar and plighted
those holy vows which bound them
together for weal or for woe.
All was sunshine then. The pres
ent was delightful, and the future bore
me rainbow tints of hope.
Years casscd ere the dart- rlnnrU rf
adversity gathered around them; but
alas! they did gather, and the bright
sunlight faded away until scarcely one
beam found its way to those once hap-
We will pass over the train of mis
fortunes which had at length reduced
the young couplo and their two chil
dren to absolute poverty aud want.
Imprudence in their style of living,
failure in business, long and severe ill
ness, were the producing causes.
Unaccustomed to self-control, or to
the denial of selfish gratifications, Ju
lia was ill prepared to bear t lie rigid
system of economy which was now
necessary. She became irritable and
morose, and. thoughtlessly added many
a drop to the bitter cup which her
husband was drinking.
"Is there no hope of your obtaining
the situation with Mr. Markham
which you mentioned some days ago?"
she Mi.'denly asked, as her husband
rose from their frugal meal, one cold
morning iu the early part of winter.
"None at all," was i ho reply. '-Tho
present clerk has decided to rem -tin.
But even my present situation is bet
ter than nothing. Turee hundred will
keep us from starving."
"Jt were better lo die, Henry r than
to live in this way. Life has just all
its charms for mo, and 1 would gLully
be at rest." , '
"But our children, Jiil'ii. Think of
them, and keep up yyurjjuurajie a- tit
tle longer. The day umycjfr Utwi

"Never, never!" Mjc yrtxftoilj
brought this upon me. My g'"

"Aud do yottreally rcgret,it1 Julia?
We may regret the inipru3eiice.in our
former style of living, ami we may
sorrow for the misfortunes which have
come upon us; but we need not repent
of our niarrhge."
"Was not that the cause of it all?
was (he bitter reply. -
Deeply grieved, the husband turned

an hour or two before the usuA. time
for his return, Henry was borne into
the house by two men, and the tiuhap
py little family were told than an ac
cidentil fall upon the ice had resulted
in a broken leg, ihe last drop seemed
to have been added to the already
briniming cup.
From the night of agony which fol
lowed, Julia was a diirerent, aud, in
some respects, a better woman.
Hither o there had been a lingering
feeling of pride which had prevented
her from coming forward at her hus
band's side to struggle against, the
misfortunes which had come upon
them. She had shrunk back despair
ing and powerless.. Now she wa3
roused into energy.
Something must be done, anl, with
the consciousness of what devolved
upon her, came an earnest prayer for
strength a looking upward which
was not her wont.
Nothing presented itself to her
mind but plain sewing, and this she
was well aware would afford them but
a miserable pittance. Still, it would
be better than nothing. An applica
tion was at once made to a kind neigh
bor, and through her influence work
was speedily obtained.
Often when her employers would
urge her to abate a few pennies on the
usual price, and assure her that it was
for her interest to work cheap, she
would sigh deeply as she remembered
her own fecling3 in former days, and
the truth of Aunt Fanny's words
forced itself upon her mind. The suf
ferings proceeding from tho want of
unison of the interests of the employ
er and the employed were now her
own.
And where was Aunt Fanny during
thi3 lapse of years? Faithfully and
unwearicdly had she performed tho
duties which she had taken upon her
self. The task was now ended. That
aged relative to whose wants she had
ho long administered, had at length
gone home. Once more Aunt Fanny's
heart turned to her native lan 1.
Friends of her earlier years rose before
her, and she longed loiucctthcm again
face to face. The few necessary arrange
ments were soon inide, and ore many
weeks had passed hc,Jiad once more
crossed the broad ocean, and was wel
comed with kindly greetings by many
whom she had known an I loved.
Oiie of her first inquiries was for
Julia, for it was very long since she
had heard from her.
News of the failure of Mr. Law
rence in business had reached her, and
rumors of various undefined misfor
tunes had from time to time came to
her knowledge, but not one word of
direct information. The mother of
Julia had been a very dear friend, and
Aunt Fanny felt a yearning tenderness
for her child.
So sho sought out and called at her
homo.
That day had been a discouraging
one for Julia more so than ih;i il.
A little exertion had brought on
Henry's fever again, and the physician
who was summoned to attend him
had spoken in si nng terms of the Ab
solute nccvTwiy for pcrlcct rest and
freedom !ri.i ctcitcuien. How ra
this pussiidu when, hour after hour,
he must iieupja his i..c and Rec iii
wife toiling beyond her s.n ngtli lot

and Julia absolutely trembled as sho
thougiit of the sufferings they must
undergo should this means of support
be cut off.
Some kind neighbor had advised
her to apply at a collar manufactory
near by, where many women and
young girls found constant employ
ment Sho had done sb with success,and at
the moment that her old friend enter
ed, she was gazing mournf!illyuion a
dozen collars which she had taken up
on trial. They were nicely stitched
by a sewing machine, a-i 1 he had en
gaged to bind them and make three
button holes in each for the small sum
of one cent apiece. "A st-irving priee,"
she murmured to herself, and then
seemed lost in a sad reverie, fr.nn
which she was aroused by the oft
voice of Aunt Fanny.
Julia looked up iu surprise, but in
an instant her wonder was turned into
joy; and twining her arms around
Aunt ranny's neck, she soubed like a
little child.
Composure was at len jrih restored.
and then there was so much to tell and
to be told that the,goo4 lady look oil"
her bonnet and said she should make
herself unite at home, and pass the eve
ning with thein.V '"
-Yo;i cannot be at home here," said
Julia, because it is not pretty enough
for home." -
Bat to this Aunt Fanny answered :
"Home is wherever we find those we i
love. It matters littlo in what place
we find them. So this is my home for
the evening. And now, Julia, as your
husband needs attention, just give me
your work and I will sew for you.
My thimble is in my pocket as usual.
You see I retain my old habits."
"You are still the same dear Aunt
Fanny," was the reply.
"Here is my work to bind these
collars. Do you remember our conver
sation tho day that I purchased thoso
cheap collars? Every word of it is
fresh in my mind. I was very thought
less then but oh! Aunt Fanny, I
too have now had a peep behind tho
scenes."
"You have, indeed, my poor child.
But now to your husband, and when
ho is comfortably arranged we will
sit together by his bedside and have a
quiet chat."
Tho events of years were soon talked
over, and ere Aunt Fanny rose to bid
them good night she said :
"And now, my dear young friends,
I am ready to accept your former in
vitation and become an inmate of your
family."
"Oh, Aunt Fanny," exclaimed Ju
lia, "we have no longer a home to of
fer vou. This is tho hardest trial of
all!'"'
"Listen, my child. I am becoming
in ti nn, and shall oon need the care
which I have bestowed upon others.
There are none who seem nearer to me
than yourself. My means are amnle,
for my generous relative has added
largely to my little fortune. We will
look for a suitable dwelling, and you
will be to mo as affectionate children."
Tears were her only answer, but
these were sufficient to speak the feel
ings of the heart
In after years neither party had
cause to regret this arrangement.
Closer intimacy only served to en
dear them still more to one another.
In tho midst of her happiness Julia
forgot not tlio use of allliction, and
would often feelingly refer to her peep
behind the scenes.

Biscouraging a Youth.
Detroit Free Press.
A citizen whoso best weight never
exceeds 120 pounds, was the other day
buying a couple of hens of a farmer
on the market, and before the bargain
wa3 any where near concluded the two
became quite fiiendly, and the farmer
said he had something on his mind to
commuuicatc. One of his boys had a
passion "for thsatricals and was desi
rous of becoming an actor. The idea
was so strong in him that ho had be
come worthless around the farm, and
the father was in a peck of trouble to
know how to turn the boy's attention
from the fool-lights to the plow-handles.
"S'pose I send him to you, nnds'pose
you make fun and ridicule him mid lei
him sec how .foolish it is?" suggested
the father, and the citizen agreed. As
the result of their planning the boy
walked into the citizen's place of busi
ness, on Congress street east, the next
morning. The father had called him a
boy, but he weighed about 1G0 pounds,
stood nearly six feet high, and had a
pair of hands n3 large as a chrouio of
the Yoemite Valley. His arrival was
expected, and after a few words about
the weather the citizen queried :
"So you think you would make an
actor, eh?"
"Yes, I kinder think so," was the re
ply. "What line would you take?"
"Well, I kinder like tragedy."
, "Tragedy! Why, you couldn't suc
ceed in tragedy! Look at your hand!
Look at thoso feet! Bemeinber your
voice! You'd be hissed off. the stage.
Don't never hink of tragedy."
"How would I do in a drama?"
asked tho boy.
"Not at all, in the first place your
ears are too large. Then your liccls
stick out too far. Then j our hands
would hide half the other actors.
Don't try the drama, for you will be a
dead failure."
"Could I do any thing in comedy?"
"Not a thing. The sight of you in
comedy would be tho same as the sight
of a hearse on the stage. All the fa
cial expression you have is behind the
cars."
"I've thought some of beinga nigger
minstrel," observed tho boy after a
lon-r silence.
"That's the worst of all. I tell you,
boy, you'd better stick to the farm.
You are not cut out for an actor, and
you want to drop the idea."
"Couldn't I act as usher?"
"No, 6ir; you are too stiff in tho
knees 9
"Couldn't I take tickets?'
"Never. Your hands are too big for
that work."
"Couldn't I shift scenes?"
""No. You are too big and un
wieldy." There wasa long and painful silence.
Then the boy rose u p and said :
"Well, I'm bound to go into theat
ricals. If I can't be anything else I'll
be the feller that stands at tho door to
raise a row, and I'll begin on you!
Come over here!"
He hauled the adviser over the table,
clutched him by the small of the back
and spun him around, slammed him
against the wall and dropped him to
get a better hold. Then Hamlet sud
denly demanded in a loud voice:
"Caitiff I do you declare that I can
not act?"
Then the Ghost dodged around the
table and replied :
"No, I don't! You arc all right you
area splendid actor you can't help
but win!"
"And you'll tell me father so?"
"I will you bet I will!"
"If you don't !"
Here Hamlet scowled his fiercest,
the Ghost jumped behind the stove,
vowing he'd even pay $50 for a priva.e
box on the night of the debut
"Tis well!" said Hamlet, and he
went over ou' the market lo sec if he
could sell three pecks of onion sets foi
cash down.

"The Literary Success of the Century.'''
An eminent English authority le
cently pronounced Scribner's Monthly
"the greatest literary success, f the
century." The New England Journal
of Education says: "America may well
be proud of such a magazine." The Il
lustrated London News considers it
"one of the marvels of the day." Tho
London Illustrated (Fenny) Paper has
this to say: "With its inimitably fin
ished gems of drawing and engraving,
It is the wojr and admiration of tho
art-world."
.The April number just issued ends
the 19th volume, which is exception
ally brilliant. The New York Evening
Post, ILartford Courant, and other pa
pers, speak of the series by Eugene
Schuyler on "Peter the Great," as "the
most notable evtnt in modern maga
zine literature." The style is so simple
and yet so graphic that it interests not
only men of letters but the young, and
Is read as a text-book in the schools.
It is understood that the causes and
beginnings of Nihilism in IJussia will
be traced by Mr. Schuyler in the course
of his narrative.
Rev. Dr. Eggleston writes of Mr.
George W. Cablo and his story, "The
Grandissimes," in Seribuer; "If Cable
can hold that gait, the rest of us who
write American stories must surren
der to him. What a superb piece of
work it is !"
Scribner's is the only American pe
riodical that has as yet established a
large circulation abroad; the edition
in England being 10,500. It now en
ter upon its second decade, and tho
work-is winning a second hundred
thousand at home. It3 readers to-day
are estimated at half a million.
The publishers of Scribner announce
that all new subscribers after this date
who take the back numbers, beginning
November last, will receive instead of
the six unbound numbers the bound
volume. November, '79, to April, '80
(containing all of "Success with Small
Fruits," and the opening chapters of
"Peter tke Great," "The Grandissimes,"
and "Louisiana"), without extra
charge. The subscription price is S4.00
