not even perceived by far the

three million mites that measures the
earth's increased nearness, is a distance
of which we can form little conception.
By measuring the sun’s diameter from
day to day throughout determining the year, we relative have
the means of the
distances of the sun from the earth. In
this way the shnjK! of the earth’s orbit
was found out. The earth moves fastest
at perihelion, for the sun’s attraction his is
then strongest, and the greater at
traction the faster she moves. This is
proved by measuring the ecliptic. sun’s apparent Thus,

ft$tna^ An interesting speed, question connected with
perihelion is the reason why we do not
have our hottest weather when we are
nearest the sun. It is because it occurs
. in the northern winter when the sun's
rays fall obliquely upon the earth and
give comparatively little heat, though of mid- it
is probable that the severity
winter is tempered by the benignant the in
Alienee. The reverse takes place doubtless, in
Southern hemisphere, where
the occurrence of perihelion increases
the midsummer heat. This Australia theory and no
counts for the fact that in
Southern Africa the temperature in
winter is higher than in oorro .ponding
latitudes north of the equator. The
earth's perihelion is, therefore, an in
ten-sting topic for study to those who
would understand flic play of some of the
great forces that rule the worlds in
space, for the same Jaws control the
movements of the smallest planet and
the largest sun.— Providence .Journal.

arsaparilla
Is a compound of the virtues of sarsaparilla,
ztillingia, mamlrake, yellow dock, with tha
iodide of potash and iron, all powerful life-sustaining blood
making, blood-cleansing, and
elements. It is the purest, safest, and in
every way the most effectual alterative medi¬
cine known or available to the chemistry public. have The
sciences of medicine and
never produced so valuable a remedy, nor
one so potent to cure all diseases resulting
from impure blood. It cures Scrofula, and
all scrofulous diseases, Erysipelas, Pimples Rose,
or St. Anthony's Fire, Blotches, Boils, and
Face-grubs, Pustules, Salt Rheum,
Tumors, Tetter, Humors, Ulcers, Sores,
Scald-head, Ringworm, Mercurial Disease, Neu¬
Rheumatism, and Irregu¬
ralgia, Female Weaknesses
larities, Jaundice, Affections of the
Fiver, Dyspepsia, Emaciation, and
General Debility.
By its searching and cleansing qualities
it purges out the foul corruptions derange¬ which
contaminate the blood, and cause
ment and decay. It stimulates and enlivens
the vital functions. It promotes energy and
strength. It restores and preserves health.
It infuses new life and vigor throughout the
whole system. No-sufferer from any disease
which arises from impurity of the blood need
despair, who will give AVer’s Sarsacarim.a
a fair trial. Remember, the earlier the
trial, the speedier the cure.
Its recipe lias been furnished to physicians
everywhere ; and they, recognizing its supe¬
rior qualities, administer it in their practice.
For nearly forty years Ayer’s Sarsapa¬
rilla has been widely of used, millions and it of now people pos¬
sesses the confidence
who have experienced benefits from its mar¬
vellous curative virtues.
