Senator David Davis owns a 900-acre 
sheep farm in Georgia. 
Representative Pacheco, of California, 
an anti-land monopolist., has taken an indefi¬ 
nite leave of absence from Congress, on ac¬ 
count of his wife's illness. 
Senator Windom's wealth has been gained 
since 1875, when he invested all his spare 
money in Colorado town sites. The result 
was that lots for which he paid $50 one sea¬ 
son sold for $1,500 the next season. 
U. S. Treasurer Gtlfillen, who has pur¬ 
chased 5,000 acres of land in Florida, will 
have other persons associated with him, and 
during the conrng yesr will plant no fewer 
than a thousand acres with orange trees. 
Bbisbjn Walker sold the Washington Re¬ 
public a few years ago, paid his debts, and 
with $20 in his pocket started for Colorado. 
He now on ns a large ranch and is said to be 
quite wealthy. His money was made in land 
speculation in Denver. 
Ex Governor Stanford is exercising his 
mind over the most important irrigation 
scheme yet heard of in California. He pro¬ 
poses to build immense reservoirs in Lytle 
Creek, Santa Ana aud Mill Creek canyons 
aud to store all W inter water that can be 
gathered. By a system of aqueducts and 
minor ditches the plains of Sau Bernadino, 
Pomona and Riverside may thus be flooded. 
GREAT SAVING FOR FARMERS 
A large proportion of the diseases which eanse 
human suffering result from derangement of the 
stomach, bowels, and liver. Area’s Cathartic Pills 
act directly npm these organs, and are especially de¬ 
signed to cure the diseases caused by their derange 
ment. Including Constipation, Indigestion, Dys¬ 
pepsia., Headache. Dysentery, and a host of 
other ailments, for all of which tt>ey are a safe, sure- 
prompt, aud pleas >nt remedy. The extensive use of 
the c e Pills by eminent physicians in regular practice, 
shows unmistakably the estimation in which they are 
held by the medical profession. 
These Pills are compounded of vegetable sub¬ 
stances only. and are absolutely free from calomel 
or any other injurious iDgrr client. 
A Ssullercr from Headache writes t 
“Arua’s Ftli-S are Invaluable to me. and are my 
con-taut compact n. I have been & severe sufferer 
from Headache, and your PILL--are the only th ng X 
con'd look t for relief. One dose will quickly move 
my bow els and free my head from pain They are 
the most effective and tnc easiest physic I have ever 
found. It is a pleasure to me to speak In their praise 
and 1 always do so when cicoaato't offers. 
‘ W L. Paul. Of W. L Page & Bro. 
“Franklin St., Richmond, Va , June s, 18S&. 
The Rkv. Francis B. Harlowk, writing from At- 
lanta, Oa., sa> s: ' Per some years east 1 have been 
subject to constipation, from which, in spite of the 
use .if medicine o* various hinds I suffered increas¬ 
ing Inconvenience, until some mouths ago I began 
taking AVER a PILLS- They have entirely corrected 
the costive habit, and have vastly improved my gene¬ 
ral health.” 
AVer’s Cathartic Fills correct lrregularl'les of 
the bowels, st’inulate the appetite and digestion, 
and by their prompt and thorough action give tone 
and vigor to the whole physical economy.
