Be Careful
No woman can be too careful of
her condition during the period be
fore her little ones are born. Neglect
or improper treatment then endan
gers her life and that of the child. It
lies with her whether she shall suffer
unnecessarily, or whether the ordeal
shall be made comparatively easy.
She had better do nothing than do
something wrong.
MOTHER’S
FRIEND
is the one and the only preparation
that is safe to use. It is a liniment
that penetrates from the outside.
External applications . are eternally
right. Internal medicines are radi
cally wrong. They are more than
humbugs—they endanger life.
Mother’s Friend helps the muscles
to relax and expand naturally—re
lieves morning sickness—removes
the cause of nervousness and head
ache— prevents hard and rising
breasts—shortens labor and lessens
the pains—and helps the patient to
rapid recovery.
From a letter by a Shreveport, La.,
woman: “I hrtve been using your
wonderful remedy. Mother’s Friend,
for the last two months, and find it
just as recommended.”

WOMAN'S HONOR
VINDICATED
Thev Do These Things Very
Well in La Belle France.
By Associated Press.
New York, Dec. 27.—'A despatch to the •
Herald from Paris says; Mme. Paulmir I
has been acquited of the criminal charge 1
of having wounded ‘M. Oliver, secretarie ,
de Redaction of La Lanterne, but con
demned to pay fifteen thousand francs i
damages on the civil charges of material ;
Injury sustained by M. Oliver.
•Mme. Paulmir touched the audience very j
deeply by her impassioned references to ’
h«r daughter, for whose sake she had ta- |
ken the matter into her own hands when
the abominable article appeared in La
Lanterue reflecting on her honor. As for
the author, Henri Turot, he took all re
sponsibility for the consequences of his
defamatory article upon himself and Said 1
he waa going to try to forget his remorse ’
by means of a long exploring voyage, j
•Maitres eJan Neny. for Oliver; Lombard, a !
vocal general for 'the government, and Da- j
net, for Mre. Paulmir, presented their !
causes in a measured way. all equally re- i
proving M. Turot a» well as Mme. Paulmir. !
but at the same time finding a sort of
moral excuse for the latter. The question
was really one of -what amount of damages
ought to be imposed as in France, the j
woman is sure of acquittal under tuch cir
cumstances as those.
THEY ALL WENT OFF.
Lot of Fire Works Suddenly Exploded on
Mulb or rv Street.
A lot of firewarks on a small t=tand in
front of Birdsong’s saloon on Mulberry
street, made the acquaintance of a spark
from a small bay’s punk about 5 o’clock
last evening and gave the people of that
vicinity an impromptu exhibition of their
prowess. For a few minutes the steady
boom of the cannon crackers was deafen
ing and the discharge or Reman candles
made brilliant streaks of fire across the
street. The grass on the street park was
set on fire, and for a few minutes it was
thought that it wotrld be necessary to call
out the department in order to protect
property, but the fire was extinguished be
foie any damage was done.
A CHANCE

By Associated Press.'
New York, Dee. 27. —A special to the
Herald from Washington say:s
A cablegram has been received at the
navy department from Rear Admiral
Dewey asking for the immediate dispatch
of officers sand men for service on three
captured Spanish vessels which are to be
refitted and added to his fleet.
Owing to the mustering out of volunteer
oflicers the department will find it rather
difficult to comply with this request. Cap
tain Crownishield, however, is doing all
he can to provide the officers and men
desired and arrangements are now being
made to send a transport with them
through the Suez canal. Department au
thorities are anxious to commission the
naval cadets who are now undergoing a
course preliminary to final graduation.
But this cannot be done unless congress
passes the pending naval bill. There is a
provision in this bill which expressly
opens the way for the immediate assign
ment of these cadets to duty as officers.

Watchlnjj the Stomach.
The applications of th4 Roentgen rays, .
espeidally in the domain of medicine and .
surgery, are of constantly widening use- >
fulness, although one hears less of them
in the daily press now that the keen edge ,
of novelty has been blunted by a world’s 1
appreciation. Two fields of exploration i
made possible by the fluorescence ot
vacuum •tubes, and recently entered, are ‘
of noteworthy promise. One is the ex
amination c f |ung tissue in the case of con
sumption. The healthy lung gives com
paratively little shadow in the sciagraph, i
while the diseased tissue has a much dark
er appearance in the picture. It is thus
possible to ascertain exactly the part affect
ed and to attempt palliative or remedial
► eatiuent accordingly.
The other recent use of the Roentgen
'ay of especial value is in observing the
movements of the stomach and its contents ;
in the preliminary digestive process. By
mixing subnitrate cf bismuth, which is
said to I’e a harmless powder, with the food,
the movements of the stomach may be !
seen by means cf the fluoroscope under
suitable conditions. Thu knowledge thus
gained is of great importance to the physi
ologist and the yhysi -ian. as many facts
hitherto unknown are revealed.
It is not strange that au English writer
playfully remarked that the X ray may
yet he employed to r< ad the riddle of the
sphinx. It is certain that Professor Rpant
gun uave to the world a discovery which is
bringing to mortal gaae -cany of the deep
mysteries of nature. —Western Electrician

H • Got the Shoes.
An interesting incident occurred on our
streets on • day recently. The pastor of
one of our churches and three other men
I were standing on the warm side of
. Wal-h’s store builuing talking. The pas
tor bantered one of them to trade shoes,
but he <t.e< lined, saying, “Yours have
| boles in them.”
Another said: “lYell, it’s too bad that a
I preacher in our town has to go around
with su< h s’x,r,s. We ought to take up a
I collection for him.”
The preacher, suiting the action to the
word, passed his hat, and one threw in a
penny, and a third threw in a dollar, say
ing, “Now. cover that.” The hat went
around again and again, with a little
twitting on each side, with a dollar here
and a half dollar there, and one man
threw in a $5 bilk saying. “Now, cover
. that.”
It was enough. The bat contained
$12.50 The preacher at ter ward offered to
I refund, hut there were no takers. He
now wears the best pnir of shoes he could
find in town. —Summerfield (Kan.) Sun.
Dri»*»>»ailat»*n In France.
The returns of the census for France
which was taken in March, 1897. have
i now been published and compared with
j the statistics of the previous census, which
■ was taken six years before. A year ago
i the number of people in France was 38,-
1 228,909, and at the 1891 census it was 38,-
‘ 095,150, go that Jn six years the popula
i lion of France had only increased by 133,-
, 819 persons
And even this trifling increase is more
apparent than real, for it has taken place
entirely in the large towns and is due to
i tho influx of foreigners, such as Belgians
| and Italians, who are to be found in in
creasing numbers among the urban pop
ulations of France. In only 24 depart
ments is there any increase, in 63 depart
ments there is a positive falling off, and
; tjjis is more especially marked in the ru
ral communes
Christ la ns In Daninsetis.
As Kaiser Wilhelm rode through the
streets of Dau ascus recently it may not
| have occurred to him that it is only 66
years since that privilege was first accord
ed to,a Christian. It was only in 1232,
when the city was taken by the Egyptians
‘ under Iltfahim Pasha, that a foreign eon
' sub was permitted to enter. The British
consul entered it mounted and in full cos
tume, with an escort of Egyptian soldiers.
It may also not be entirely reassuring
to his mind that as recently as 1860 the
great massacre of the Christian popula
tion took place. The Moslems, taking
advantage of the disturbances in the Leb
anon, rose against the Christians, burned
their whole quarter, and massacred in
cold blood 3,000 males. Thousands who
escaped perished from wounds, famine or
i privation —London Chronicle.

A Bullet Proof Heart.
The Baltimore Sun says that the late
William B. Smallbridge of Glenville, W.
Va., a veteran of the civil war, carried a
bullet in his heart for 37 years. His death
: was not due to the presence of th& bullet,
j and, in fact, he never suffered any incon
’ venience from it. Before his death he
asked his physician, in the interest of
science, to make an autopsy in order to
find the bullet. The physician did so and
I found it imbedded in the heart.

mean that a man is fighting the first round
with death. Unless he manages to strike
the knock-out blow, it means that death
will come up in the second round in the
guise of some serious malady. When a
man's stomach is weak and his digestion
is impaired, the life-giving elements of the
food he takes are not assimilated into the
blood. The blood gets thin and weak, and
the body slowly starves. In the meantime
the disordered liver and the sluggish bow
els have forced into the blood all manner
of impurities. The body is hungry and
eagerly consumes anything that the blood
j stream carries to it. In place of healthy
■ nutriment, it receives for food foul poisons
that should have been excreted by the
bowels. Continued, this system starva
tion combined with poisoning, will wreck
every organ in the body. Naturally, the
weakest organ will give way first. If a
man is naturally nervous, he will break
down with nervous exhaustion, or prostra
tion. If he inherits weak lungs, the con
sequence will be consumption, bronchitis,
asthma, or some disease of the air-passages.
If he has a naturally sluggish liver, he will
