water on a tablespoonful and take as soda wa

•‘Will he Never Return.”
This girl was standing at the front door pale,
excited and almost motionless. The night was
dark and gloomy, rain was pouring down in
torrents, thunders roared and lightnings flash
ed. yet she stood peering through the dark
ness. “Will he never return,” she sighed. Her
heart was heavy and her,thoughts were of her
mother, v/lio lay in a room close by, prostra
ted with a chronic female complaint and had
been despaired ol by all. Someone said that
English Female bitters would care her mother,
and this gill had dispatched someone to the
drug store for a bottle. It came, her mother
used it and a rapid cure was the result. That
girl in worth marrying. All sickly females,
married or single, can be cured by using the
same medicine,
—“lt is better to laugh than be crying”—
decidedly; and to enjoy your baby’s laughing
society use Dr. Bull’s Baby Syrup which re
lieves discomforts of babyhood without stupefy
ing the children. Price 25 cents a bottle.
