The very latest war ambush
for the innocent militiaman is:
“Have vou heard about that
first bill Congress passed after
war was declared?”
“No, what?”
“Why, a bill closing public

“To protect the magazines.”

“I was so much amused at a
little 12-year-old girl a few 7 days
ago,” remarked a bright woman
at Mrs. Garrard’s Easier open
ing this morning. “The child
was one of these quaint little
maidens. She observed: ‘The
girls seem to be so giddy these
days.’ Why, said I, what are
you thinking about?’ ‘Last night
I was at a party,’ she replied,
•and I noticed that all the girls,
when they laughed, giggled he
he-he I The boys laughed too,
but I didn’t hear any of them
say she-she-she. They laughed
much more manfully than the
girls.’ ”

The Roman
mother who with
her mantle de
fended the body
of her child from
the ravenous
birds of prey is
a perfect type of
motherhood in
all times ' and
among all peo
ple. To protect
her offspring
from harm is the
overwhelming
instinct of moth
erhood.
Modern moth

preying acci
dents of life is to transmit to them an
abuudance of natural health and hardihood
But a mother cannot confer health and
strength upon her offspring unless she has
it in some measure herself.
Prospective mothers should know that
Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is a sci
entific medicine, which gives perfect health
and strength to the special organs con
cerned in motherhood.
Taken early during the expectant time, it
makes the coming of baby entirely safe and
nearly painless. It insures cheerfulness
and recuperative energy to the mother and
constitutional vigor to the child
It is the only perfect and positive specific
for all weaknesses and diseases of the femi
nine organism.
Mrs. F. E. Forgey. of Carns, Keyapaha Co.,
Neb., writes: " I write to you again oncerning
my daugther, Mrs. D. Billings. She has taken
two bottles of ' Favorite Prescription.’ She
thinks the medicine did her a world of good.
She was confined the 15th of February. Was sick

And while I am paying my
respects to the up-town druggists
1 want to remark that one of
this clever class of .hustlers told
me yesterday afternoon, that he
w;is preparing to bring a suit'
for damage against a certain i
newspaper, because the paper,
for several issues, had failed to
remove from its columns, a cer
tain war ad. He said that he
had ordered the same out of the
paper repeatedly and that it was
not only annoying to have it re
appear, but that it damaged him
in the eyes of his fellow 7 drug
gists.
