She throws on water.knowing that waterquenches fire. When a woman wants to get well from diseases peculiar to her sex, she shou’-i not add fuel to the fire already burning her life av/ay. She should net take worthless drugs and potions composed, of harmful narcot ics and opiates. 'They do not check the disease—they do not cure it—they simply add fuel to the fire. Bradfleld’s Female Regulator should be taken by every woman , or girl who has the I slightest suspicion of any of the ail- the pain, it eradicates it. It stops falling of the womb, leucorrhea, inflammation and periodical suffering, Ir regular, scanty or painful menstruation; and by doing all this drives away the hundred and one aches and pains which drain health and beauty, happiness and good temper from many a woman's fife. It is the one remedy above all others which every woman should know about and use. 81.00 per bottle at any drug store. Send for our free illustrated book. The Bradfield ’Tpgulaior Co. Atlanta, Ga.

The case of small-pox tlirce miles from Rookmart on the fnrm of Mr. W. T. Simpson should alarm no one. An old negro woman—Jane Dnvitte, or Rentz,—arrived from Arkansas Inst week and soon developed small-pox. Dr. D. M. Russell, chairman of the Board of County Commissioners, took the case in hand, nnd has dealt promptly und effectually with the pn- tient. He vnbolnntod nil in reach of the case, or who had been exposed, nnd put Mr. Jnok Whitehead, nn expert small-pox nurse, In charge of the premises, with guards to prevent the pi CUIIOCO, WIVII guuiuo VU piCVL-ll spread of the disease by oontnot. The old negro woman is doing well, has passed the oritloal stage, and is now sitting up well on the way to re covery. There is no need for alarm on the part of the public. Tho case is well in lmnd,nnd no danger will likely result from the spread of this oontn- gion. It sliould be remembered that the case is three miles in the country from Rookmart, and no one sliould enter tain the idea that there is any sort of danger in the town of Rookmart. The disposition of children largely depends upon health. If they are troubled with worms, they will be irritable, cross, feverish, nnd perhaps soriously siok.
