When the yellow Sag of quarantine
Is hoisted over a dwelling it means disease
and danger. So when the yellow flag
flies in the face—when the cheek is sallow
and the clear white of the eye is dyed
saffron there is danger. It is liver
trotJ>le. The liver is one of the most im
portant organs of the body. On the
proper discharge of its functions depend
hui ir health and happiness. \\ hen the
liver fails of its duty, poisons at once be
gin to generate, and other organs of the
body become involved. Never neglect
the liver if you value health. If you are
suffering from liver trouble, begin at
once the use of Ayer’s Pills and you will
find prompt relief and permanent cure.
**/ was so weakened by liver trouble that
I could teareely lift, my head. While in
this condition I began the use of Ayer's
Pills, anti finding almost immediate benefit,
continued their use until I was cured of
my complaint.”

When we read of an elephant hunter who
has been trampled to death in the wilds of
India we wonder at the foolhardiness of a
man who will travel round the world and
endure all manner of hardships, in order to
court death in a far away jungle. A man
does not have to make a journey to India
in order to court death in a manner equally
foolhardy.
Thousands of hard working men are daily
courting death in a much more certain
form, without ever leaving their native vil
lages or cities. They are the men who neg
lect their health. They are the men who
court death from consumption, or sonic
other deadly disease due to improper or
insufficient nourishment. The man who
suffers from bilious or nervous disorders,
who has a weak stomach and an impaired
digestion, who has lost the power to eat,
rest or sleep, and who fails to take prompt
steps to remedy these conditions, is court
ing death in the guise of some fatal malady.
Dr. Pierce’s Golden Medical Discovery
cures 98 per cent, of all cases of bronchial,
throat and laryngial affections that lead up
to consumption. It soothes the cough,
facilitates expectoration and restores the
lost appetite. It corrects all disorders of
the digestion, makes the assimilation of
the life giving elements of the food perfect.
It invigorates the liver and purifies and en
riches the blood. It is the great blood
maker, flesh-builder, nerve tonic and re
storative. It is the best of aii known med
icines for nervous disorders. Dealers sell
it and have nothing else “just as good.”
“ I had a bad cough and got so low with it that
I could not sit up," writes Mr*. Mittie Gray, of
New London. Union Cos. Ark "Our family
physician told my husband that I had consump
tion. I had pains through my chest and spit up
blood. I took your ‘ Golden Medical Diacovcry ’
and it cured me. It saved my life."
THE PEACE COMMISSION.
The Phllllppine Question Taken
Up by the Americans.
Paris, Oct. 25.—The American
peace commission was in session
during the whole of this hfte noon.
The deliberations of the commis
sioners, how- ver, had no relation
to the question of the Cuban debt,
upon w hich question the attitude of
the United State* has been strictly
determined.
Our commissioners discussed the
Philiippine question today and de
cided upon the policy to follow. It
is believed the American commis
sioners have full power to deal with
this matter as they may judge best
in the interest of the United States.
The Gaulois today, referring to
yesterday’s joint session, says:
“It is certain that both sides will
endeavor to gain time, the Ameri
cans not wishing to take up the
Philiippine question before the con
gressional elections have taken
place, and they do not want acer
tain alleged mystery previously
disclosed by the Gaulois to become
known at present.”
Thisjefers to the allegation that
there had been some agreement
between thy United Si flies anu
Spain outside ot the protocol, an
allegation which the Associated
Press has already declared on high
authority to be untrue.
Continuing the Gaulois affirms
that the Spaniards are delaying a
resolution of the Cuban debt
question' until after tiie elections
in the United States, expect
ing to get better terms then, adding
that it fears Spain does not per
ceive the advantages possible to
her from the electoral situation in
the United Slates,
THE RACE QUESTION.
Is Causing Trouble in North Caro
lina—Whites Against Blacks.
Asheville, N. C., 0ct.25.—Excite-
ment over the race question is
spreading throughout western
North Carolina. Senator Pritcharu,
who has been to Washington to
confer with the president, stopped
over in Raleigh to see the governor,
and leading republicans advocated
the bringing of federal troops in
case of attempted intimidation of
negroes by the democrats.
The governor and the fusionists
are preparing a proclamation,warn
ing hot-heads and numerous depu
ties will be rj pointed to preserve
order. The whites are preparing
to carry the election at all hazards.
The local democratic club claims
wholesale illegal registering South
Carolina negroes, and daily and
nightly meetings of prominent
democrats, who advocate the use
of arms in case proper legal pro
ceedings fail to secure justice, are
being held.
It is thougiit the bringing oi
troops into the s*are would mean
a victory for the democrats.

ANOTHER BLIZZARD.
Heavy Snow Storms In the North

Burlington, la., Oct. 25.—The

this locality today and tonight.
Telegraph lines are prostrated
everywhere. Snow and sleet fell
f r five hours, breaking down trees
and demoralizing telegraph and
t .ephone service.
BLIZZARD IN ILLINOIS.
Galesburg, 111., Oct. 15.—A bliz
zard ha> raged here since noon. A
heavy snow is falling, causing a
cessation of traffic. It breaks all

Wires are down in every direction.
STORM IN SOUTHWEST.
Kansas City, Oct. 25. A fierce
snow is raging in the southwest to
il y. At some points snow covers
the ground from two to lour inches
The storm began at midnight last
night and accompanied by a strong
wind has prevailed since with in
creasing vigor. Telegraphic com
munication has been interrupted to
an extent. At Chillicothe, Mo., the
wind is blowing a perfect gale and
at Sedalia the heaviest snow storm
known in the history of central
Missouri for the month of October
is reported. It is growing colder.
Murderer is Lvnched,
I. a Fayette, Ala., Oct, 23.—John
Anderson, colored, charged with
the murder of Charles Holmes, a
well known white farmer, was ta
ken from jail here early this morn
ing by a large mob composed of
people from Fredonia and West
Point, Ga., and Lynched.
Anderson was dragged to the
edge of town, his body was strung
up to a pole and riddled with bul
lets. Anderson had been, for years,
a tenant on Holmes’ farm, and the
killing was the result of a dispute
over money.
Brought Back Old Scenes.
A comrade write* Billy Mount
castle from Atlanta as follows:
“I sincerely thank you for the
copy of the Courant American of
October 13th, containing a roster of
our old company, the Etowah In
fantry, which you sent to me. It
recalls the past and I have read
over and over again the names
which are so rapidly passing out of
reach of the memory. How glad I
would be to ouce more meet and
shake the hand of each and every
surviving member. I most earner -
ly hope that I shall have this pleas
ure yet, before I pass to the be
yond.”
Every
Month
there are thousands of wo
men who nearly suffer death
from irregular menses. Some
times the " period ” comes too
often sometimes not often
enough—sometimes the flow is
too scant’, and again it is fbo
profuse. Each symptom shows
that Nature needs help, and
that there is trouble in the or
gans concerned. Be careful
when in any of the above con
ditions. Don’t take any and
every nostrum advertised to
cure female troubles.
BRADFIELD’S
FEMALE REGULATOR
is the one safe and sure
medicine for irregular or pain
ful menstruation. It cures all
the ailments that are caused by
irregularity, such as leucor
rhoea, falling of the womb,
nervousness; pains in the head,
back, breasts, shoulders, sides,
hips and limbs. By regulating
the menses so that they occur
every twenty-eighth day, all
those aches disappear together.
Just before your time comes,
get a bottle and see how much
good it will do you. Druggists
