VANITY OF MEN.
“Who buys them asked a re
porter in a Kearney street ‘notion
shop, pointing to a lot ot tiny
pocket mirrers, with nail-cleaners,
toothpick and comb, all complete.
“I suppose you think the ladiee
are out best cusiouiors, said the
‘notion’ man, “but it is not so

matter much how /hey look,” he
said, “whether they are apes or
A polios, i hey want a pocket mir

every hour or so to some seciet
place to admire themselves. Talk
of the vanity of women! Indeed
It pales, sir; it fades awAy into in

‘‘Could you mention— not f> i

dividual satisfaction—the name
of some of these purchasers?”
The no l ion man locked grave.

“But there are different degree*

“No sir there is but one degree,

“When, as a matter of fact, you

KING’S EVIL
Was the name formerly given to Scrofula
because of a superstition that it could ha

Tubercular Consumption, and varl
ous other dangerous or fatal maladies, are
produced by It.
Ayers Sarsaparilla
Is the only powerful and always reliable
blood-purifying medicine. It Is so effect -
ual an alterative that it eradicates from
the system Hereditary Scrofula, aud
the kindred poisons of contagious diseases
and mercury. At the same time it en
riches and vitalizes the blood, restoring
healthful action to the vital oreans and
rejuvenating the entire system. This great
Regenerative Medicine
Is composed of the genuine Honduras
Sarsaparilla, with Yellow Dock. Stil
linyia, tie lodides of Potassium aud
Iron, and o Vr ingredients ot great po
tency, carefully and scientifically com
pounded. Its formula is generally known
to the medical profession, and the best
physicians constantly prescribe Ayer’s

For all diseases caused hv the vitiation of
