What Parent* Fear.
Many persons —especially parents—
object to many quack nostrums as likely
to engender or encourage a love for strong
drink. They are right. Better oie of
disease than drunkenness. The use of
Parker’s Tonic does not involve this
danger. It only builds up the system,
curing all ailments o 1 ’ the stomach, liver
and kidneys, but it stimulates without
intoxicating and absolutely cures the ap
petite for liquor.

If a gentleman should go to church
with his eoat off and his shirtsleeves roll
ed up, or simply without a coat, there
would be quite an outcry; but wherein
would that be worse than the prevailing
style of ladies'dresses for public ncea ions?
We must think that this fashion was first
set by women who, impure themselves,
de-ired to excite lascivious thoughts inthe
minds of men. Our ladies, thinking no
evil, because pure themselves, adopted
the style because they were not wi Hing
to be unfashionable; but we think a little
reflection will convince them that in Jthis
case it is better to be out of the fashion
than out of the world.

Dangerous Bowel Disorders.
Now that bowel disorders, such as
cholera, cholera morbus, diarrhoea, loose
ness, pains in the bowels, etc., are prev
oleut all over the country, all should pre
pare for sudden emergencies. “Mans
field's Mississippi Diarrhoea Cordial” is
the standard remedy. It has stood the
test by untold thousands for upwards of
thirty years, and has never failed in a
single instance. Every steamer plying
the "Father of Waters” carries it, and
relies upon it exclusively for the cure of
bowel disorders. One dose often alters
the secretions, and cures, and a few doses
never fail. Have it handy! It is safe,
reliable, and the best remedy of the kind
in the world. Sold by al) druggists.

ADVICE TO MOTHERS.
Are you disturbed at night and broken
of your rest by a sick child suffering and
crying with pain of cutting teeth? If so,
send at once and pet a bottle of Mrs.
Winslow’s Soothing Syrup for Children
Teething. Its value is incalculable. It
will relieve the poor sufferer immediately.
Depend upon it, mothers, there is no
mistake about it. It cures dysentery
and diarrhoea, regulates the stomach and
bowels, cures wind colic, softens the
gums, reduces inflammation, and gives
tone and energy to the whole system.
Mrs. Winslow's Soothing Syrup for
Children Teething is pleasant to the
taste, and is the prescription ot one of
the oldest and best female nurses and
physicians in the United States, and is
for sale by all druggists throughout the
world. Price 25 cents a bottle.
