Constipation
Demands prompt treatment. The re-
sults of neglect may be serious. Avoid
all liarsh and drastic purgatives , the ;
tendency of which is to weaken the
bowels. The best remedy is Ayer 's
Pills. Being purel y vegetable, their
action is prompt and their effect always
beneficial. They are an admirable
Liver and After-dinner pill , and every-
where endorsed by the profession.
" Ayer 's Pills are highly and univer-
sally spoken of by the people about
here. I make dai ly use of them in my
practice. " — Dr. I. E. Fowler , Bridge-
port , Conn.
" I can recommend Ayer's Pills above
all others , having lone proved their
famil y. " —J. T. Hess, Leithsville, Pa.
" For several years Ayer 's Pills have-
been used in my famil y. We find them,
an
Effective Remedy
for constipation and indigest ion, and
are never without them in the house."'
— Moses Grenier , Lowell , Mass.
"I have used Ayer 's Pills , for liver
troubles and indi gestion , during many
years , and have always found them,
prompt and efficient in their action. " —
L N. Smith , Utica , N. Y.
" I suffered from constipation which:
assumed such an obstinate form that I
feared it would cause a stoppage of the
bowels. Two boxes of Ayer 's Pills ef-
fected a complete cure." — D. Burke ,
Saco, Me.
" I have used Ayer 's Pills for the past
thirty years and consider them an in-
valuable family medicine. I know of
no better remedy for liver troubles ,
and have always found them a promp t
cure for dyspepsia. " —Ja mes Quinn , 90
Middle St., Hartford , Conn.
"Havin g been troubled with costive-
ness, which seems inevitable with per-
sons of sedentary habits , I have tried
Ayer 's Pills, hoping for relief. I am
glad to say that they have served me.
bett er than any other medicine. I
arrive at this conclusion only after a.
faithful trial of their merits. " — Samuel.

SCIENTIFIC SCRAPS.
According to the naturalists wasps re-
Btt«mber the locality of their nests just
ninety-six houra.
In a gallon cf sea water there are
1880 grains of salt, besides some mag-
nesia, iodine, and bromine.
The heads of the Cambridge studen ts
have been measured, showing that the
average brain capacity of a first-class
man is 244.56 cubic inches. The capa-
city of tho ordinary pa33 man's head
measures 237.33 cubic inches.
Spiders rarely cause any trouble with
bees. Strong colonies are fully able til
repol them should they enter the hivp.
All webs about tho entrance should ba
brushed away, or bees will be caught
and devoured.
Electric nflo3 are the latest. Instead
of the ordinary percussion firing de-
vice, a dry chloride of silver battery and
a primary coil will, so it •we? lately
stated before the American Institute,
fire the riflo 35,000 times without re-
charging.
One of the human foot prints found in
volcauic rock in Nicaragua several years
ago is describod by Dr. D. G. Brinton
as being 9 1-3 inches lon e, three inchss
wide at the heol and 4 1-2 at the to?.
The apparent length of tho foot itself u
eight inches. Dr. Briaton considers the
footprints genuine, but is uncertain
whether they are so an cient as has been
supposed.
Dr. Paulinis mentions an epidemic of
diphtheria, in 1884, which followi d the
arrival of a flock of turkeys in Skiatos,
one of the Grecian isles, whero no case
of the disease had previously been
known for thirty years. Some of the
turkeys were sick, and it is believed
that the diphtheretic germs were con-
veyed from them through the air to the
first human Victim.
Plants are injured by parasitic fung i
in various ways. They are deprived of
nourishment, growth is abnormall y ac-
celerated or retarded , causiag distor-
tion ; not only are green par ts affected ,
but roots, stems, buds, flowers and
fruit ; leaves and fruit fall prematurel y;
decay is produced in ripe fruits before
and af ter reinoval from tha plant, and
valuable plants receive injury from
those of less value by ordinary infec-
tiOD.
A new artificial silk is said to have
been prepared at Lyons, Franco, by M.
de Chardonnet. The process consists
in adding to an etherized solution of
nitrated cellulose (the base of gun-cot-
ton) a solution of perchloride of iron,
and to this mixture a little of a solution
of tannic acid in alcohol, when the
whole is poured ia a fino jet into water
acidulated with nitric acid. The fluid
thread becomes consistent, and is
drawn off, driod and wound. Tho Bub-
stance is supple, transparent, silky in
appearance, and very strong. Tho
color is gray or black, but may bo
changed to suit.
A petroleum engine now being ex-
hibited in England is attracting much
attention. Ia a tank in the bed of the
engine is placed the petroleum, which
is forced through a pipe into a compart-
ment where the oil is convjrted into a
fine spray by means of a blast of air.
The spray passes into a chamber, and,
coming in contact w.th an electric spark
obtained from a small battery in the
rear, motive power is at once supplied.
In construction it is said to be compara-
tively simple, and tho engine works
with admirable regularity. The piston
requires no oiling, tho petroleum vapor
supplying the necessary lubrication.
Points by a Plumber.
"If you want a point or two about
cleaning waste-pipes without sending
for a plumber," said a retired member
of the fraternity to a New York Tele -
gram reporter who was complaining of
the trials of hou3e-owner3hip, "just lis-
ten to me.
''If I were still in tha business T
would not givo away what I am going
to tell you now, but a3 I'm out of it
I do not see why I may not help a
friend.
"One of the most frequent and try-
ing annoyances," he continued, a3 he
flashed his $600 diamond ring at the
reporter, "is the obstruction to tho free,
quick outlet of the waste water of the
wash-basin, the bath-tub and kitchen
sink. This is caused by a gradual ac-
cumulation of small bits of refuse ma-
terial, paper, rags, meat bone,or grease,
which check and finall y entirel y stop
the out-flow of waste, and then the
plumber is called to removj the stop-
page with his force pump. Sometimes
this is accomplished, but often the pipo
has to be cut, and there U greit incon-
venience and expense.
"Ju3t before retiring at night pour
into the clogged pipe enoug h li quid
soda lye to fill the 'trap,' as it is called
—or the bent part of the pipe just be"
low the outlet. Be sure that no water
runs into it until the next morning.
During the night the lye will convert
all the ofllal into soft soap, and tho first
current of water in the morning will
wash it away and leave the pipe as cleaa
as new. See? This is practical chem-
istry, yet few chemists would ever think
it of."
Opals Not Uulncky.
A man who makei a stul y of stones
and precioua things tells me that the
superstition about,the opal isdying out.
People are getting over all that non-
sense, he said. The blac'
.c cat sup rsti-
tion has vanished, and why not the
opal? He says he has had several calls
for opals recently, some of the callers
reversing the old superstition by saying
that they want tho opal so as to change
their luck. There is also a new way of
setting diamonds for the caw. by which
the stones are never still t x :«pt when
they are out of the ears. By this new
setting the diamonds tremble with every
pulsation of the ear, thu3 giving them
additional lustre. Even a stone that is
oflE-color will shine up to good ad-
vantage when thus arranged.—[Chicago
