The First Sign
Of falling health, whether in the form oi
Night Sweats and Nervousness, or In a
sense of General "Weariness and Loss oi
Appetite, should suggest the use ol
Ayer's Sarsaparilla. This, preparation
is most effective for giving tone and
strength to the enfeebled system, pro-
moting tho digestion and assimilation of
food, restoring tho nervous forces to
their normal condition, and for purify.
in?, enriching, and vitalizing the blood.
Failing Health.
Ten years ago my health began to fail.
I was troubled with a distressing Cough,
Night Sweats, Weakness, and Nervous
ness. I tried various remedies pro
scribed by different physicians, Dut
became so weak that I could not go up
stairs without stopping to rest. My
friends recommended me to try Ayer's
Sarsaparilla, which I did, and I am now
a3 healthy and strong as ever. Mrs.
E. L. Williams, Alexandria, Minn.
I have used Ayer's Sarsaparilla, in my
family, for Scrofula, and know, if it is
taken faithfully, that it will thoroughly
eradicate this terrible disease. I have
also prescribed it as a tonic, as well as an
alterative, and must say that I honestly
believe it to be the best blood medicine
overcompounded. W. F. Fowler, M. D.f
D. D. B Greenville, Tenn.
Dyspepsia Cured.
It would be impossible for me to de
scribe what I suffered from Indigestion
and Headache up to the time I began
taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla. I was under
the care of various physicians, and tried
a great many kinds of medicines, but
nover obtained more than temporary re
lief. After taking Ayer's Sarsaparilla
for a short time, my headache disap
peared, and my stomach performed its
duties more perfectly. To-day my
health is completely restored. Mary
Harley, Springfield, Mass.
I have been creatly benefited by the
prompt use of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. It
tones and invigorates tho system, regu
lates the action of the digestive and
assimilative organs, and vitalizes the
Diooa. it is, without aouDt, me most
reliable blood purifier yet discovered.

Villard to Have Control of The Oregon
and Transcontinental.
Henry Villard's extraordinary
career, with the remarkable vicissi
tudes of fortune he has experienced,
will in all probability reveal still
another change next month, when
he will once more be placed in
control of the Oregon and Trans
continental company. He or
ganized the company in 1881 and
was forced to retire irom control
iu the autumn of 18S3, when re
verses came thick and fast upon
him. His plan is, to elect a suffi
cient number ot his friends to con
stitute a majority of the board of
directors of the company, after
which tho directors will elect Mr.
Villard president of the corpora
tion.
For some time past a syndicate
has been quietly working to obtain
control of th 6tock of this oom
pany. It is claimed that, out of
the total stock issued, 400,000
shares, the syndicate holds fully
300,000 shares. Sidney Dillon,
the present president, will retiro,
but will be retained by tho board
of directors in Villard's interest, as
will also W. S. Bull. It is also
said Mr. Villard arranged to take
care of the floating debt of 3.
000,000 which hung over tho pro
perty as a perennial menace, and
that financially all will move
smoothly. It is intimated that tho
Villard party also succeeded in
obtaining a majority of tho stock
of the O. R. & N. Co., and that
after the election it will pass into
the control of Mr. Villard.
When reverses cf fortune struck
Villard, compelling him to retiro
from both companies as well as his
pet road, Northern Pacific, he wont
to Europe. It was then generally
believed he was a ruined man.
This was in August, 1884. In
October, 1886, he returned to this
country, apparently with plenty
of means. It was said he had come
back as the representative -of a
powerful German syndicate to in
vestigate and operate in American
securities. He opened an office in
the Mills building, he rented tho
magnificent Tiffany house at the
corner of Seventy-second street
and Fifth avenue and he once
more became a familiar figure in
New York.
Villard's career had beer pictur
esque. He was born' in SpyT
on tho Rhine in 1835. He was
graduated from tho Gynasium
there in 18o2 and came to this
country in 1853. For a while he
remained in New York, but in
1853 he went to Chicago; thence
he went to St. Louis and finally
settled in Bellevue, 111., where he
had relatives. There he commenced
the study of the law, but began
writing for tho German papers.
Meanwhile he studied the English
language, and in 1858 ho began
his career as a newspaper writer
iu that tongue. He took an active
part in reporting, the famous cam
paign iu Illinois between Lincoln
and Douglas, and in 139 was sent
by the Cincinnati Commercial to
write a series of articles from tho
west. In the national campaign
or 18G0, when Mr. Lincoln was
elected president, Mr. Villard, by
reason of his acquaintance with
Lincoln, was detailed by a West
ern paper to accompany him
through the campaigu. Then he
became a war correspondent, and
in I860 married Miss Garrison,
daughter of William Lloyd Garri
son. Then ho went to Europe during
the Austro-Prussian war for a
New York paper. On this trip he
fell in with some German capital
ists who wore interested in Ameri
can securities. They sent him
here to look after their interests.
While acting in this capacity he
locked horns with Jay Gould in the
Kansas Pacific fight, in which he
had a second receiver appointed
and ultimately conquered, getting
his backers $1.10 for their secrities,
when Gould originally offered to
pay 40 cents on the dollar.
This brought Villard to the front
and he was then sent to look after
interests in this 6tate. He identi
fied himself with Northwestern
interests and was phenomenally
successful until his North
ern Pacific venture, which,
after he had completed the
task of building the road, brought
ruin about his head. In early
years, and as a poor, struggling
boy, Mr. VillarSwas known under
the name of Heinrich Hilgard, but
after he obtained a foothold as a
newspaper man he changed it to
Henry Villard, under which name
he reaped and lost one immense
fortune, and now seems to be in a
fair way to gain another.

A CRUSADE.
The constant'increase of intemper
ance and fancy drinking is fast disin
tegrating society, and good people
are getting discouraged. Now there
is a great excitement over a new and
tasteless plant just discovered, that
makes a man strong and vigorous,
removes nervous exhaustion . and
nervousness from -women at once,
leaving no reaction. They call it
Moxie. Tho drug stores say its sale
is stupendous, and all classes take it.

it, and it is an admirable detonse against ma
