If P—8 5, oryK H 3, Knight goes to seventh Qneen, The mate is n»at. Rook holds his file, And no escape is seen. If King should go to B 3, 7 he Knight move is the same, He opera the diago nals, For Qaeen’s and Bishop’s aim. If K 85 and face the Book, Then B seventh King, If K—Q 5 Q—S square.

E.S.Miller & Co.^ewark.O 630-4t The treatment of many thousands of cases of those chronio weaknesses and distressing ailments peculiar to females, at the Invalids’ Hotel ana Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y„ has afforded a vast experience in nicely adapt ing and thoroughly testing remedies for the cure of woman’s peculiar maladies. Dr. IMerce’s Favorite Prescription is the outgrowth, or result, of this great and valuable experience. Thousands of testimo nials, received from patients and from physi cians who have tested it in the more aggra vated and obstinate cases which had baffled their skill, prove it to be the most wonderful remedy ever devised for the relief and cure of suffering women. It is not recommended as a “cure-all,” but as a most perfect Specific for woman's peculiar ailments. As a powerful, invigorating tonic, it imparts strength to the whole system, and to the womb and its appendages in particular. For overworked, “worn-out,” ” debilitated teachers, milliners, wmapMEOM “shop-girls,” house- ‘ run-down, dressmakers, seamstresses. keepers, nursing mothers, and feeble women generally. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is the greatest earthly boon, being unequaled as an appetizing cordial and restorative tonic. As a soothing and strengthening nervine, "Favorite Prescription” is une- 3 unit'd and is invaluable in allaying and sutr uing nervous excitability, irritability, ex haustion, prostration, hysteria, spasms and other distressing, nervous symptoms com monly attendant upon functional and organic disease of the womb. It induces refreshing sleep and relieves mental anxiety and de spondency. Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is a legitimate medicine, carefully compounded by au experienced mid skillful physician, and adapted to woman's delicate organization. It is purely vegetable in its composition and perfectly harmless in its effects in any condition of the system. For morning sickness, or nausea, from whatever cause arising, weak stomach, indigestion, dys pepsia and kindred symptoms, its use, in small doses, will prove very beneficial. “ Favorite Prescription ” is a posi tive cure for the most complicated and ob stinate cases of leueorrhea, excessive flowing, painful menstruation, unnatural suppressions, prolapsus, or falling of the womb, weak back, “ female weakness, anteversion, retroversion, bearing-down sensations, chronic congestion, inflammation and ulceration of the womb, in flammation, pain and tenderness in ovaries, accompanied with “internal heat.” As a regulator and promoter of func tional action, at that critical period of change from girlhood to womanhood, “Favorite Pre scription ” is a perfectly safe remedial agent, and can produce only good results. It is equally efficacious and valuable in its effects when taken for those disorders and derange ments incident to that later and most critical period, known as “ The Change of Life.” “Favorite Prescription,” when taken in connection with the use of Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery, and small laxati ye doses of Dr. Pierce's Purgative relicts (Little Liver Pills), cures Liver, Kidney and Bladder diseases. Their combined use aiso removes blood taints, and abolishes cancerous and scrofulous humors from the system. “Favorite Prescription” is the only medicine for women,sold by druggists, under a positive guarantee, from the manu facturers, that it will give satistuction in every case, or money will be refunded.
