~ There is no

that of a healthy,

VjSßbSf" IB bust aJ ’ rollick-
t'-^-^\ ~inK bab y- 11 i s a
rwm<i! sight entirely too
AagHflb. fSr infrequent. Too
often the baby is
< -*~~ puny and peevish
and the mother sickly, fretful, and nervous.
The woman who neglects to take proper care
of herself and who therefore suffers from
weakness and disease of the organs of wo
manhood cannot be healthy and amiable.
Her children will be puny and ailing and
happiness will pass by on the other side.
There is no reason why every woman should
not be the healthy, happy mother of robust
and playful children if she will take the
proper care of herself. Proper care means,
first of all, proper medicine for her ailments.
Dr. . Pierce’s Favorite Prescription will
make any woman strong and well in a wo
manly way. It cures all weakness and dis
ease of the distinctly feminine organism. It
prepares a woman for motherhood. It in
sures the health of the baby. It makes
parturition easy and nearly painless. Over
90,000 women have testified to its virtues
in writing. Druggists sell it and have no
substitute “just as good.” The druggist
who tries to force something else upon you
is not an honest man. He is trifling with
your life and happiness for the sake of a
greater profit to himself.
Mrs. F. E. Forgey, of Carns, Keyanaha, Co.,
Neb., writes: '• I write to you again concerning
my daughter, Mrs. I). Billings. She has taken
two bottles of 'Favorite Prescription' and two
of‘Golden Medical Discovery.’ She thinks the
medicines did her a world of good, she was con
fined the I.sth of February. Was sick about
three hours, and now has a ten pound daughter.
She got along nicely afterward. She says she
never felt so well. She looks well and her com
plexion is clear."'
The modern business world won’t stand
still or loiter to wait for the man who suffers
from headaches, biliousness mid dyspepsia,
caused by constipation. Dr. Pierce’s Pleas

TO MOTHERS OFJARGE FAMILIES.
Mn. Plnkluun'i Advice Free.
In this workaday world few women
are so placed that physical exertion
is not constantly demanded of them in
their daily life.
Mrs. Pinkham makes a special appeal
to mothers of large families whose work
is never done, and many of whom suffer
and suffer far lack of intelligent aid.
To women, young
or old, rich or poor,

w Pinkham, at
the first approach of weakness, may
fill your future years with healthy joy.
Mrs. A. C. Buhler, 1123 North Al
bany avenue, near Humboldt Park,
Chicago, 111., says: “ I am fifty-one
years old and have had vwelve children,
and my youngest is eight years old. I
have been suffering for some time with
a terrible weakness; that bearing-down
feeling was dreadful, and I could not
walk any distatice. I began the use
of Lydia E. Pinkham’s Vegetable
Compound and Sanative Wash and they
have cured me. I cannot praise your
medicine enough.” •
“Traveling Libraries”—Mrs. Eugene

Matteis to Uome Up-
Several matters of great importance
will be brought up before the convention
and it is expected that the discussions
which will follow will attract attention
all over the state. One of the discussions
will be on the appointment of a state li
brary commission. A bill to create such
a commission will be brought before
the next general assembly for its third
reading, and as no opposition has devel
oped, it is more than likely that it will
be passed. It is probable that resolu
tions will be adopted at the coming
meeting in Macon favoring the bill and
asking its adoption by the general as
sembly.
Another important matter will be the
discussion over the advisibility of having
a training school for librarians at the
Georgia Normal and industrial college-,
On this question Miss Wallace recently
directed a letter to the trustees of that
institution in which she clearly demon
strated the advisibility of such a step.
One of the feature of the coming
meeting will be the address by Miss L.
E. Stearnes, of the Wisconsin state li
brary commission, who comes south for
the special purpose of aatending the
meeting. Miss Stearnes is a well known
and efficient library economist and her
address will be looked forward to with
much interest.

MAKE UP TIMK.
Iron Horses Try Their Speed on the Rail
* Below Dalton.
Yesterday the Southern and Western &
Atlantic trains that arrive in the city at
12:55 -p. m. had a race below Dalton,
says the Chattanooga News of yesterday;
that is, they both arrived at the long
stretch of track that run parallel for four
miles,, at the same time, and both were
late, so they tried to make up time. The
Western & Atlantic tram had seven
coaches, while the Southern only had
four. Faster and faster went the two
trains until the lighter Southern train be
gan to walk away from the other. The
passengers grew enthusiastic and the
sporting blood of the American warmed
up to the occasion, while lusty yells rent
the air and sounded above the rattle of
the trains.
It was one of the prettiest races that
has been seen for some time. It wasn’t
exactly a race, either, just the making up
of lost time, the roads having forbidden,
and the only thing the engineers can do
is to make up lost time.
In the run yesterday the passengers
yelled like Indians and each would have
given two barrels of bacon to win, like
the old woman on the steamboat, who
said she was opposed to racing, as she
was a member of the church,, but that if
the captain was in a hurry, she bad a
barrel of nice fat bacon on deck that he
could use if he run out of coal.
Yesterday the Southern train, being
the lightest, made up their time the
quickest and run into Dalton just about
three minutes before the Western & At -
I antic train.

THE ROME TRIBUNE. WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 1897
MARCH BEGINS TODAY
Flftb Infantry From Fort McPherson En
Route to Chickamauga.
THEY WON’T PASS THROUGH ROME
Line cf March is By Ktng.ton, Dalton, Ring
gold and to ParK-Parlc Full of
Soldiers.
This morning the Fifth Infantry from
Fort McPherson, near At lanta. will be
gin the long march to Chickamauga
National Park. .
Nearly 600 soldiers will be in line and
these, with the officers and the long wa
gon train, .will make a fine showing.
The line of march does not embrace
Rome, Kingston being as near as they
will come to this city. They will make
12. miles every day, and will probably
camp at Kingston Sunday. From there
they will contiue up the W. &A. to
Ringgold where the magnificent pike
road extends to Chickamauga,
With the two companies of United
States soldiers already encamped at
Chickamauga, one from New Orleans and
the other from Barancas, Fla., the addi
tion .of 600 men from Fori McPherson
will make a goodly company.
The Fifth Infantry have places already
,elected for camping each night by En
gineer Brown, and each day the men
will be requsred to cover the distance be
tween the points. It is expected that
they will find no trouble in making the
necessary distance, since the cool weath
er will greatly aid the soldiers and pre
vent them from becoming tired or worn
out.
Colonel Cook will be accompanied by
his entire staff. The regiment will be in
two battalions and four companies in
each of these. The signal corps, the
hospital corps and Other branches of the
service will be instructed en route.
The two batteries of the First artillery
now camuing near Snodgrass Hill are
having a pretty dusty time of it. The
officers are not well satisfied with their
location on aocount of the distance from
water and a lack of convenient transpor
tation to and from Chattanooga.
There are 116 men and five officers
with the outfit, Capt. Best commanding-
Lieut. Pope, a genial and accomplished
young gentleman, in discussing the re
moval of the battalion from New Orleans,
said:
“This camping out business is not a
comfortable sort of thing for a man of
my years. We would much have pre
ferred to stay a Jackson Barrs cks and
take the chances of yellow fever. It
might be » little dangerous, however,
if the disease grew virulent. During a
previous epidemic one of our battailions
lost fifty per cent of its strength, and the
department now takes no chances.”
The quartermaster of the battalion is
Mr. Winfield C. Overton,' an additional
lieutenant just assigned, he having grad
uated with the last class at West Point.
He arrived and joined the command last
week and -assumed the most trying posi
tion in it. even to a man of more years
and experience. He is a bright young
man and a courteous, clever gentleman,
and would prove a welcome addition to
any circle.
It is probable that when the Fifth ar
rives they will select a camping site some
where along Mission ridge, in order to be
nearer town and have better water.
Capt. Best has named his camp in hon*
or of the secretary of war, Camp Alger.

Poor
Blood
When a horse is poor in flesh,
a new harness won’t give him
strength. If a house Js cold
new furniture won’t warm it.
If your strength is easily ex
hausted; work a burden;
nerves weak; digestion poor;
muscles soft; if you are pale
and worn out, the trouble is
with the blood. It is not so
much IMPURE blood as
POOR blood. Pills won’t
make this blood rich; nor will
bitters, nor iron tonics, any
more than a new harness will
give strength to the horse, or
new furniture will make .a
house warm. For poor blood
you want something that will
make rich blood.
SCOTT’S EMULSION of
Cod-liver Oil with Hypophos
phites is the best remedy in the
world for enriching the blood.
