The fall of (Jen. Boulanger has been
one of the mostcomplete and sensational
in French history. Two months ago he
was the idol of perhaps three fourths of
the French nation. To-day his arrest
for criticising his superior officer, the
.Minister of War, produces scarcely a
ripple on the current of French politics.
The railroads have, indeed, declared that
they would make him a candidate for the
chamber of Deputies if his removal from
command in the army was made perma
nent. But there is not the slightest
probability that they could elect him.
France often been untort unate in its con
spicuous public servants. In Boulanger’s
case, however, that country is fortunate
in discovering the true character of its
favorite, while yet that discovery could
come unaccompanied by national dis
aster.
At the door of one of Chicago’s most
fashionable churches Sunday, in the
presence of an assembling congregation,
William Lee, a youth of seventeen, five
times shot his step-father, Stephen W
Ilawson, President of the Union Trust
Company, of Chicago. For more than
a year liawson and his wife, young Fee’s
mother, have been fighting each other in
the divorce courts, the wife averring
that her husband was a perjurer, while
he retorted that she was “a disreputa
ble, blasphemous, devilish-tempered ad
venturess ” Within a week Ilawson had
filed an amended petition, charging his
wife with adultery. It was for this that
the young man shot him Ilawson, who
is an old man and a millionaire, was a
prominent member of the Third Presby
terian church, at the door of which he
was shotas he left his carriage Mrs.
Ilawson is a beautiful woman, of middle
age and prominent in society. Her son,
who has probably divorced her, as one
of Itawson's wounds is doubtless fatal,
was taken to prison at his own request
immediately after the shooting. His
mother, when told of the crime, said she
was glad of it, as Ilawson deserved it.
A Rambling Talk.
The Piedmont fair in a rushing success.
It is more than a success. It was big
from the start. Its growth has been un
parallelled. Monday night it began to
get too big. It swelled and swelled and
swelled, until it became unwieldy and al
most unmanageable. The ruin came
down in sluices. It had the effect on the
crowd that water has on dried apples;
the swell was continuous. Shelby Atta
way suys on Monday of the first week if
the crowd got any bigger it would “bust.”
On Tuesday of this week his prediction
was verified. There were evidence of a
bust on Monday. On Tuesday it came.
On that day as Sam lfrowu would say,
“it busted and run all over itself.” Such
a scene has never before been looked
upon, and will never again be duplicated.
There is no need to say how many people
were in Atlanta. A wild estimate would
be one hundred thousand visitors; a rea
sonable estimate would place the figures
at one hundred and twenty-five thou
sand ; there may have been one hundred
and fifty thousand. Enough to say
nothing like it was ever seen before in
these parts. Atlanta did all she could,
but she was pressed too hard. An old
negro expressed the situation exactly
when he said Atlanta wasn’t equal to the
include. In the language oi Attaway.
she had busted. But with it all the peo-
ple weie jolly and patient, nothing could
daunt the enthusiasm or spoil the fun.
On such a day as Tuesday who cared for
the rain and mud? Who would let a few
hundred thousand people keep him in
doors when a President—a real live Dem
ocratic President was on parade? Who
would let anything keep him away from
the best show ever seen in the South or
anywhere else for that matter? And so
they swayed and swelled and throbbed,
and moved along right merrily. And
what of the show? Why, it is just splen
did! That was the universal verdict.
Nobody was disappointed, and nobody
had a right to be. It is useless to go into
details over such a grand exhibit —there
is too much to be told or even to be seen.
How about Bartow county? She has
done the clean thing and no mistake. A
more varied or more satisfactory exhibit
of resources has not been made than that
from our own sounty. You see Bartow
practically has threeexhibits—thecouuty
exhibit, the Etowah Company's exhibit,
and the display of the Dade Coal Com
pany. They are all well selected, well
arranged ami well talked up. No other
Georgia county can at all compare with
ours in minerals; and it really looks like
we have outstripped anything on the
grounds. Even Alabama, with all her
booms and boasted mineral wealth, is
not ahead of us. Men from all sections
of the country stand around among our
minerals and look and wonder. They
don’t somehow seem to quite realize that
this is in fact the doings of a Georgia
county. 1 won’t make any predictions
as to what will tie the result of this.
There is no telling. It may end with the
looking and wondering, but nobody be
lieves it will, and it is not reasonable to
believe that it will so end. There is
money in the country sreking in vestment.
There are men at Atlanta seeking infor
mation as to the pluces where invest
ments can Ik* profitably Our re
sources are displayed there. They are
being looked at, talked about and w ritten
up. We of the county know that the
display is not overdone, that we have
mountains and hills full of just as good
material as that on exhibition. Hence it
is only reasonable to hope that splendid
results will follow this Piedmont fair for
our section, and if talking up a show is
worth anything Bartow will reap more
than any of them. We are especially
fortunate in the men we have on the
grounds. They are awake and hustling.
All seekers after truth are promptly
served George Aubrey is doing his
work handsomely. No man around the
fair grounds hasdonebis duty better. He
works more than he talks It is business
with him first and last. George knows
the county and its resources. He shows
his wares and talks them up as earnestly
as if he were in some private enterprise
and the profits were all going into his
own pockets.
And there is Capt. Henry MeCormick.
with his broad, happy fat e and genial
hand-shnke, who is constantly on the
move uid doinghisfull share. lie passes
out the Bartow pamphlets and praises
the Bartow exhibit in a way that makes
the passers take the one and hear the
ot her gladly
These two men are always on the spot
and are making—have already made —
our show the leading success of the fair.
Capt Tom Lyon is the best talker in
Georgia. This statement is made ad
visedly, There isn’t another man in the
State who can touch him on telling a
good story, and when it comes down to
talking business he just simply leads the
whole caravan. I saw him in Atlanta
Monday and Tuesday and he was doing
the thing proud He has hel|*ed to make
the Piedmont fair the greatest success of
the age. and he is going to top off on the
State fair next week. When he returns
to his home the jieople of this county
ought to give him an ovation and call
him out for a sjwecli. He has talked for
Bartow county and for North Georgia,
first, last and all the time; and lie ought
now to tell the home-folks his experience
and let them know how well he can talk.
Bob Pattillo has divided his time be
tween booming Bartow and wearing his
uniform, and he is a pronounced success
at both. He covers the whole territory
and does it in great style He is every
where, sees everybody, makes you feel
happy and inspires confidence wherever
he touches
General P. M. B. Young has filled a
place at the fair that could not have been
tilled by anyone else His quality of
leadership is so natural and so becoming
that he can accomplish great things
without an apparent effort. He made a
splendid success out of the military fea
ture of the fair No man in Georgia
could have done it so well. His praises
are on every lip. He has been cheered
and applauded on every hand The boys
who followed him long ago have yelled
themselves hoarse when he has appeared
along the line. I saw him enter the Kim
ball house Monday night with the Presi
dent leaning on his arm and I thought
him the handsomest man 1 had ever seen.
He is a princely man, and has borne a
princely part in this great show
But I must end here The paper is

A GIRL’S SAD STORY.
She Becomes a Belle and Falls in Love with
Her Own Brother —The Denoue
ment —Her Reason Dethroned.
From the Brooklyn Times.]
In a little white frame cottage on Lib
erty avenue, near Wyckoff street, in the
town of New’ Lots, twenty-seven years
ago, lived Louis Hart and his wife Cath
erine. They had four remarkably pretty
children. Three were boys, and the
other, the youngest, Marguerite, was a
beautiful little girl but 18 months old
She, of course, was the pet of the family.
The father of this interesting family
was a hard-working man, and earned
but small wages, barely sufficient to
supply the necessaries of life. In addi
tion to this lie was a brush maker by
trade.
Next door to the Harts lived a middle
aged gentleman by the name of Edward
Wilder. This Wilder was a rich man.
His East New York residence he occupied
only a few months in summer. His win
ter quarters were in New 7 York City, not
far from'Fifth avenue. He formerly had
a butcher stand in Washington Market,
w here, after years of patient labor, he
amassed a competence He then retired
from business. Some lucky investments
in real estate made him a millionaire.
Mr. Wilder, although passionately fond
of children, hail no little ones of his own.
He often called upon the Hart family,
and admired the little Marguerite. He
had noticed the struggles of the family
to keep the wolf from the door, and ob
served with sorrow that the poor man’s
strength was unequal to the tasks im
posed upon it. The baby antics of the
little Marguerite had also worked upon
his affections, and a great love for the
little one arose in his heart.
One day Mr. Hart returned from his
work sick in body and mind. Destitu
tion stared him in the face. His rich
neighbor’s sympathy was aroused, and,
calling upon Mr. Wilder, the latter made
a proposition to him. He stated how he
had become attached to little Marguer
ite, how he had noticed their circumstan
ces, and wound up by offering to adopt
the little one.
The poor man could not bring himselt
at once to let the child go, and asked for
time to consider the matter. But Mr.
Wilder had set his heart upon gaining
possession of the little one, and offered
to settle an annuity upon the boys if his
proposition were accepted. He also
offered to divide between the boys a val
uable plot of land lying in the northern
part of New York State. He stipulated
that when he should once have posses
sion of the child it should never again be
reclaimed by its parents under any cir
cumstances, and that Marguerite should
never be made acquainted with the fact
that he wiuj other than her own father.
Quite an affecting scene ensued. The
parents did not want to let the child go,
but at last came to the conclusion that
it was the best thing under the niremn
stnnces and gave the child into Mr.
Wilder's keeping.
Mr. Wilder immediately took Marguer
ite to his New Y ork establisjnent, and
she grew up to be a very beautiful young
woman, admired by all. She was of the
blonde type, with deep blue eves and
golden hair, and skin like alabaster.
Her figure was sujierb. She was the belle
of her set, and many were her suitors.
BuUshe hud not as yet met her affinity.
In the summer of 1883 her father took
her to Newport, where she was the ac
knowledged belle. It was generally
known that she was an heiress, and that,
with her lieauty, brought many suitors
to her feet. Among them was a hand
some young Lieutenant of the United
States navy. He was a young man with
many virtues and but few faults. He
was a frequent attendant at divine ser
vices. They m-t at the church. A mu
tual reciprocation sprang up betweeu
the young people, and they were often
seen upon the sands of Newport enjoying
one another’s society. They were a hand
some couple, ad mi ml by all. but envied
by none. Society began to whisper it
was a mutch. Society for once was
right. The friendship of the young
couple in course of time ripened into a
warmer feeling, and one beautiful moon
light night the young man rose to the
occasion and the inevitable “proposal"
was made. Marguerite had been exjiect
ing this for some time, but, like a dutiful
daughter, asked for time to consider her
answer, and in the meantime referred the
whole matter to her father. Her reasons
for so doing were that she was an heiress
and he was comparatively poor. People
would look upon this as a misalliance.
She was not sum but that her supposed
father might also.
Mr. Wilder listened attentively to
Marguerite's story, and at the conclusion
he smiled, and. clasping her to his bosom,
kissed her, at the same time assuring her
that if lie found the young man's charac
ter and antecedents to be satisfactory,
his poverty need be no bar to the con
summation of their happiness.
That same day Mr. Wilder went out
and did not return until late. He ap
peared to be “depressed and went to bed
without saving a word. The next day
at the breakfast table he proposed to his
little family that they take a trip to
Europe. Marguerite had noticed his al
tered manner, and when this proposition
was made she understood it as meaning
that her father would not give his con
sent to her marriage, and her heart
failed her for the moment. There was
something wrong. She asked him for his
answer. Mr. Wilder evaded her ques
tionings as long as he could, but when
she stated that if she did not get his con
sent to their union she would leave her
supposed parents and go to her lover,
the old man was obliged to divulge the
secret of years, and informed her that
the man she loved was her own brother,
Frederick Hart.
The poor girl fainted. When she came
to she was delirious. She was removed
to her bed, where she remained for sev
eral weeks, and when she arose it was
seen that her brain was seriously affected;
Her lover’s name was constantly on her
lips.
When Mr.-Wilder started out to in
quire into the young man’s character
and found that he was noiie other than
his adopted daughter’s own brother,
Fred Hart, he was stunned. The young
man was made acquainted with the fact
of his relationship and took it to heart.
A few days afterwards his body was
found in the river.
After Marguerite had recovered suffi
ciently to bear' the news, her adopted
parents told her of the death other lover.
She became affected with melancholia,
and has gradually grown worse, until
now it is thought necessary to place her
in some institution where she will receive
proper treatment and possibly recover.
With that end in view Mr. Wilder visi
ted a well known medical expert in this
city yesterday and arrangements were
made for placing her a private institu
tion in this county.

Women and Mont Blanc.
Sixty-one women in all have made tht
ascent of Mont Blanc. “The fact is tes
tified.” says a correspondent of Galignani,
‘•by the antique register religiously kept
at the office of the guides at Chamonix,
as everybody may see for himself. The
look is a more faithful record than one
might expect. Just as on some ill fated
precipice on the Alps a wooden cross
marks the sjx>t where a too adventurous
climber lias met his death, so here a
lugubrious cross is set against the name
of every victim who has failed to reach
his journey’s end, and the oft recurring
formula, -Requiescat in pace.’ may i>er
haps account for the reluctance with
which the book is shown to intending ex
cursionists.
“The first female ascent of the giant of
the Alps was made by two French women,
one of aristocratic and the other of ple
beian birth. Their example was quickly
followed in after seasons, and in the end
the record stands as follows: English
women. 32; French women, 15; Russian
women, 4; American women, 3; Swiss
women, 2, and Prussian, Danish, Hun
garian, Italian and Austrian, 1 each.
Eleven of these ladies accompanied their
lmslKinds. The mania for making ascents,
through evil and good report, has this
year been rather conspicuous, the excur
sions to the summit having numbered
thirty-nine as against an average of
eleven. The French on this occasion
have taken the lead, followed not very
closely by Englishmen and English
women, and still further off by Ameri
cans and Germans. Most of the French
who have ventured forth to the summit
are members of the Alpine club, while
those of other nationalities depend for tl e
most part upon their own resources or ilvi
counsel of guides.”—Pall Mall Gazette.
The Value of Pure Coffee.
Mr. W. J. Haaimond, engineer and
general manager of the Western Sao
Paulo railway company, Brazil, bears
pleasant witness to the virtues of coffee
and strongly denounces the use of adul
terants. Many people will be able to in
dorse liis high opinion of the value of
“strong, pure, black coffee as a stimu
lant when the body is run down through
physical labor, ” but liis assertion that,
beyond this stimulating power, coffee has
great disinfecting properties and is used
by many who have to travel through
miasmatic districts as a preventive against
fevers will be new to many.
He states that the Rev. Father Kene
lam Vaughan, who but a few years back
made a journey by land from Panama
down to the River Plate, passing in and
among and over the Andes during a
space of three years, used coffee alone as
a stimulant, although he had once to run
the gauntlet through a long, rock bound
valley in Colombia in which the water
remained stagnant year after year, and
the narrowness of the gorge prevented
sufficient sunlight and heat from entering
to dispel the vapors. When asked what
he took in this horrible place, called by
the natives by the significant name of
Valley of Death, he replied: “Why, cof
fee, of course!” The same gentleman
also reports that since the natives in the
pestilential districts near Guayaquil, in
Ecuador, have substituted coffee for their
former beverages the death rate has
fallen very considerably.—Home Knowl
edge.
Origin of the G. *. K.
Its originator was Dr. Benjamin F.
Stephenson, a physician of Springfield,
Ills., who had served as surgeon in the
Fourteenth Illinois infantry during the
war. He first suggested the idea in Feb
ruary, 1866. Published accounts state
that Decatur, Ills., was the birthplace of
the order, but the only living comrade of
the four who were present at the first
muster and mutually took the obligation,
according to the ritual Dr. Stevenson had
prepared, says that it was founded at
Springfield.
The first formal organization of a post
occurred, however, beyond question, on
Afuil 6, 1866, at the village of Decatur,
which contained only forty-three Union
soldiers.
Among the originators of the Grand
Army of the Republic were Messrs. Col
trin and Pryor, proprietors of The Deca
tur Tribune, and their compositors, who
printed the first ritual of the Grand Army,
as written by Dr. Stephenson.
Soon after Post No. 2 was formed at
Springfield, and others were quickly in
stituted throughout Illinois, Wisconsin,
Indiana. Ohio, lowa and Missouri.
On July 12, 1866, the first department
encampment was held at Springfield, Ills.
John M. Palmer was elected department
commander.—New A’ork Herald.
A Serenade in Dahom.-y.
That night, perhaps, as a soother to my
nerves, the king gave us a serenade by
his own private band. I was awakened
about midnight by a noise that I can com
pare to nothing but a thunderstorm in
scales. They ran from high to low, and
got terribly mixed in the middle. It was
not really unpleasant, but, like the chim
ing of bells, should be heard at a distance
—the greater the distance the better. I
sprang to the window to find that this
band consisted of twenty-two men, each
with a log or piece of wood, the largest
so heavy that it took four men to carry
it. These were set, one end on the ground,
the other supported by a wooden trestle,
and beaten on the high end with wooden
hammers, of all sizes, from the hand
hammer to a sledge, each stick of log
emitting its sound, but no distinguishable
air resulting.—North American Review.

Advice to Young Doctors.
In your instructions to your patients,
be particular in giving minute directions
concerning diet. This has great effect on
the minds of old women, especially, if
their maladies are in a great measure
imaginary. Give a list of what is to be
eaten at breakfast, dinner and supper,
and you may depend upon being made
the subject of conversation, and will be
considered very clever.

lady t(X>k sick ami was obliged to send
for a neighboring physician, who, by the
way, was really a well read man. On
his attempting to persuade her that the
left leg possessed no particular virtue, she
became quite indignant and uncompli

WAYS OF THE ROACH.
The llaiie of House wives—Where He
Comes from and " hat He Kats.
The roach h;es Ikh-ix the faithful at
tendant ot humanity ever since written
history begaxi, but the abominable extent
of this faithfulness lias arisen in civilized
communities chiefly within recent times.
There is a roach, a little, outdoor, inno
cent kind, that is supposed to be in
digenous in this country. It lives in the
fields, under stones and rubbish, and is
good food for birds. But the common
cockroach of the home and fireside came
from the Levant in ships and bales of
merchandise to England, of which coun
try Wood, the writer on bugs, says. ‘-it
luls completely taken possession.” At
first, as in this country, it was confined
to seaport towns, but the climate in the
neighborhood of kitchen fires suited it,
and the drippings about the kitchen sinks
gave it the moisture which is as essential
to it as food, and so it strayed and spread,
coming across the sea to America quickly,
and staying and spreading here, too, un
til the nuisaneeof its presence, which has
increased every year, lias reached in New
York and other large cities along the
coast an extent that is almost intoler
able. The kitchen tires long since ceased
to satisfy the desires of its soul. It has
followed water and steam pipes all over
buildings of every sort. Office buildings
and‘stores are as much overrun with the
insects as dwellings. The only relief is
in the constant kilting of them, and there
are men in New York who make a busi
ness, and a profitable one, of ridding
hotels and large private houses of the
jiests. Even this professional work does
no permanent good, but only brings re
lief for a time.
The roach is, entomologicallv speaking,
an Ortlioptera. In plain English he be
longs to the grasshopper family. Scien
tifically he is a blatta orientalis, and has
four wings that he doesn’t use, and that
are absent entirely in the females of
most species, a black or reddish brown
body that reaches an inch in length if
the bug isn’t killed first. Long, awl
shaped antenna?, each with eighty joints,
decorate his head. The bugs will eat al
most anything they can find. Flour,
bx-ead, meat, clothes and shoes are some
of their delicacies. In dwellings their
usual forage is the crumbs and other
leavings of the kitchen and table. They
are essentially nocturnal, disappearing
into chinks and crevices the moment a
light appears, but of late they have be
come so abundant in New York that the
chinks and crevices won’t hold them,
and they are perforce seen much around
during the daylight.
The roach is not as rapid a breeder as
many other insects, but it seems to have
remarkable success in raising families.
The eggs are laid in a little bean-shaped
capsule, three-eighths of an inch long and
half as w-ide. In this the eggs, about
thirty in number, lie like peas in a pod
for several days, when the pod opens at
one side and lets the little, soft, white
baby roaches out, after which it closes
tight again and gives no sign that the
eggs are not within as before. The fe
males, before the eggs are hatched, draw
the egg sac around behind them wher
ever they go, and their appearance with
this appendage has excited much interest
among kitchen amateurs in bugologv.
After the young are hatched, the female
is said to brood over them somewhat^ as a
lien does. In tlu-ee or four days the
) oung bug turns from white to brown
and is ready for business.
A peculiarly disagreeable feature of tlio
roach is the bad habit it has of discharg
ing from its mouth a dark colored liquid
that has a most disgusting smell. Every
place which the insects frequent becomes
in time impregnated with this nauseous
odor, which sometimes is so powerful
that it sensibly affects the flavor of pro
visions that have been left in larders in
which roaches are plentiful.
Another kind of roach is officially
known as the ectobia Germanica, and is
peculiarly fond of Boston, where it is
known as the “Croton Lug.” This insect
has got over the nocturnal habits of the
ordinary roach. It goes around fx-eely in
daylight, and for real solid meals prefers
wheat bread. Asa light lunch it is par
tial to cloth bound books. Leather bound
books it will not touch.
In Lapland they have the blatta lap
ponica, smaller than the common roach,,
but with such astonishing voracity that
they frequently devour in one day the
entire stock of dried fish in a Laplander’s
cabin.
Fully as voracious are a sort of roaches
that infest ships. It sometimes occurs
that the steward going to open a l.ox of
crackers finds inside nothing but a mass
of roaches. In St. Petersburg it has been
necessary to destroy houses that had been
made uninhabitable by roaches.
There are in all some 1)00 different
roaches that have been caught and cata
logued. A large section of the world is
still to hear from.
With all his manifold vices it is pleasant
to know that the roach is not altogether
bad. There yet remains in the breast of
even the fattest and ugliest roach that
ever spoiled a custard pie one sentiment
sprung from the heaven born heart of
those fiery swords from which his race is
descended. Though innumerable dam
aged dinners, ruined luncheons without
end and an uncounted host of breakfasts
made odious by his unwelcome presence
be charged up against him; though many
firesides have been desolated by him and
numberless pantries laid waste, yet let
there, in justice, lie set against lus name
one legend of righteousness—the roach
eats bedbugs.
Many things eat roaches. Birds and
all insectivorous animals are especially
fond of them. Hedgehogs dote on them.
In England hedgehogs are sometimes kept
in kitchens on purpose to devour the
roaches. It is also said that in the Isle of
France there exists a sort of sand wasp
that preys upon roaches. —New York

Japanese Wooden Shoes.
In Japan children's shoes are made of
blocks of wood secured with cords. The
stocking resembles a mitten, having a
separate place for the great toe. As these
shoes are lifted only by the toes, the
heels make a rattling sound as their own
ers walk, which is quite stunning in a
crowd. They are not worn in the house,
as they would injure the soft straw mats
on the floor. You leave your shoes’at
the door. Every house is built with refer
ence to the number of mats required for
the floors, each room having from eight
to sixteen, and in taking lodgings you
pay so much for a mat. They think it
extravagant in us to require a whole
room to ourselves.
The Japanese shoe gives perfect free
dom to the foot. The beauty of the hu
man foot is only seen in the Japanese.
They have no corns, no ingrowing nails,
no distorted joints. Our toes are cramped
until they are deformed and are in danger
of extinction. They have the full use of
their toes, and to them they are almost
like fingers. Nearly every mechanic
makes use of his toes in holding his work.
Every toe is fully developed. Their shoes
cost one penny and last six months.—

The treatment of many thousands of eases
of those chronic weaknesses and distressing:
ailments peculiar to females, at the Invalids’
Hotel and 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. Pierce’* Favorite Frescription
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.
Asa powerful, invigorating tonic,
it imparts strength to tne whole system,
and to the womb and its appendages in
particular. For overworked, ‘ worn-out,”
r ’run-down,” debilitated teachers, milliners,
dressmakers, seamstresses, “shop-girls,” house
keepers, nursing mothers, and feeble women
generally. Dr. Fierce’s Favorite Prescription
is the greatest earthly boon, being unequaled
as an appetizing cordial and restorative tonic.
Asa soothing and strengthening
nervine, “Favorite Prescription” is une
qualed ana is invaluable in allaying and sub
duing 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 an experienced and 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 eases of leucorrhea, excessive flowing,
painful menstruate-n, unnatural suppressions,
prolapsus, or fulling of the womb, weak back,
‘‘female weakness,” anteversion, retroversic x,
bearing-down sensations, chronic congestion,
inflammation and ulceration of the womb, in
flammation, pain and tenderness in ovaries,
accompanied with “ internal heat.”
_ Asa 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 disorders and derange
ments that later and most critical
period, known as “ The Change of Lite.”
“Favorite Prescription,” when taken
in connection with the use of Dr. Pierce’s
Golden Medical Discovery, and small laxative
doses of Dr. Pierce’s Purgative Pellets (Little
Liver Pills), cures Liver, Kidney and Bladder
diseases. Their combined use also 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 satisfaction in every
case, or money will be refunded. This guaran
tee has been printed on the bottle-wrapper,
and faithfully carried out for many years.

make that fellow a bet, you see lie was
about dead, and I guess he would of died
before spring, if 1 had not of got him on
the bet. You know some men had rather
lose their life than lose a hundred, well he
was one of that kind, and we both came
near being out, but 1 saved my hundred
and it cost him ten dollars. How's t hat?
He sent for me one day and said the doc
tors had all giv(% him up to die with the
catarrh. I told him that 1 would bet him
SIOO that Hall’s Catarrh Cure would
cure him or I would give him SIOO if it
tailed. He took the latter proposition.
