Only the Scars Remain, "Among the many testimonials which I in regard to certain medicines performing cures, cleansing the blood, writes HENRY HUDSON, of the James Smith Woolen Machinery Philadelphia, "none impress me more than my own case. Twenty years ago, at the age of 18 years, I had swellings come on my legs, which broke and became running soresu Our family physician could do me no good, and it was feared that the, bones would be affected. At last, my good old mother urged me to try Ayer'a Sarsaparilla.

I took three bottles, the sores healed, and I have not been troubled since. Only the scars remain, and the memory of the past, to remind me of the good Ayer's Sarsaparilla has done me. I now weigh two hundred and twenty pounds, and am in the best of health. I have been on the road for the past twelve years, have noticed Ayer's Sarsaparilla advertised in all parts of the United States, and always take pleasure in telling what good it did for me." For the cure of all diseases originating in Impure blood, the best remedy is AYER'S Sarsaparilia Prepared by Dr. J.

The UemarkaMe Operation of a Surgeon on a Noseless Alan.

The achievements of American sturgeons in bold and extraordinary operations have long been the wonder of the world, but now from the other side of the Atlantic comes a story which shows that the old country is waking up a bit in the art of engrafting living human flesh. A young man has put his finger to his nose, and it remains there permanently. A few mouths ago whose nasal organ was missing as the result 'of an accident, called at Charing Cross hospital, London, with the request that the surgeons would supply the deficiency, artificially or otherwise. He expressed himself as willing to undergo any sort of treatment by which his disfigured face might be made fairly presentable and not absolutely repulsive to bis best Sunday summer girl. Mr.

Bloxam, the senior surgeon, took the interesting case in hand. First the amputated finger of another patient was carved and fashioned to the semblance of a nose and then securely grafted on the face. But it was found that this mutilated digital appendage had not survived its cutting It vas "dead" and failed to take fresh root. The noseless man, nothing daunted, thereupon agreed to the surgeon's suggestion that one of his own (the patient's) fingers should be cut off to furnish a nasal organ, but in order that the finger should not be wasted in the event of this operation being unsuccessful it was only half amputated. The patient's arm being incased in plaster, for four weeks he held his own live finger to his face in the hope of its taking root.

This it did. The portion which was still "attached to his hand was then cut-through and-soon adhering firmly to the Although, minus a finger, the young man now has a new nose of his own flesh'and blood. The transferred cartilage has been so manipulated by clever Dr. Bloxam that its original identity is entirely lost, and the further process of shaping it is now being proceeded with.

Weather Report preceded by 1'ght rains in the eastern portion of the State. Warmer Wednesday. Two Little Moons of Mars. The two moons of Mars, Deimos and Phobos, were observed at the observatory at Flagstaff on Sept. 10.

Deimos, the outer one, is the smaller, being, it is estimated, about six miles in diameter, while its companion is slightly larger, some seven miles in diameter, the entire surface of either of them being not more than the area of some great farms in the far west. The possibility of seeing such small objects so great a distance is a triumph of modern optics, they "being observed at a distance of more than 40,000,000 miles. A homo comparison would be the seeing of a two inch ball at a distance equal to that between Boston and New Transcript.
