Washes and ex- ternal applications are of no avail. The poison must be thoroughly eliminated from the system by stimu- lating the action of the liver and kidneys, which organs have become s!usgish and inoperative, thereby throwing upon the skin the unnatural work of cleans. ing the system of its impurities. What is needed is Ayer's Sarsaparilla—the best of blood medicines. “My face for years was covered with pimples and humors, for which I could find no remedy till I bean, totake Ayer's Sarsaparilla.

That About King Kalakaua Wanting to Sell the Sandwich Islands, Mr. H. A. P. Carter, minister from Hawaii to the United States, will leave the city tonight for San Francisco to consult with King Kula~ kaua on the subject of the relations between the two countries, He expects to be gone three or four weeks.

THE ANNEXATION IDEA RIDICULOUS. “He will not leave the Pacific coastat all. T have received word from him that he would be glad to see me and talk matters over and Igo tonight.
