«” A Ten Pound
Boy.”
Many women
seem to have
been denied the
precious gift of
motherhood be-
cause of some
weakened con-
dition of the
special organ-
ism which
makes mother-
hood possible;
but in the great
majority of
cases such a
difficulty is not
by any means
incurable. In thousands of instances Dr.
Pierce’s Favorite Prescription by restoring
the natural healthy condition of the organs
distinctly feminine has been the means of
conferring upon childless women the one
inestimable blessing.
a Georgia aetgyman Rev 0. h. Akridge of
Pelham Mitchell Co. G*.ip a lettet WHtten to
Dr. Pierce says: ”We bad been Mamed tlx
years without offspring when my SMfa com-
menced taking Dr. Pierce’s Favonte Prescrip-
tion. I then wrote to you for advice and your
instructions were to give ‘Golden Medical Dis-
covery ' alternately with the ‘ Favorite Prescrip-
tion.' This we did. The result is restoration of
my wife to good health and a ten pound boy. In
honor of the world-famed Dr. Pierce I have
named him Pierce. ‘Favorite Prescription’ is
certainly the medicine for Invalid women.”
The vast experience and skill Which Dr.
Pierce has acquired during his thirty years’
practice as chief consulting physician to
the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute
of Buffalo. N.Y. has made his name known
and his medicines recognized as standard
remedies in every civilized country on the
globe. His great thousand-page illustrated
book the “People’s Common Sense Med-
ical Adviser” has had the greatest sale of
any medical work in any language. A free
edition has been published and a paper-
bound copy will be sent to any family ab-
solutely without charge except the mere
cost of mailing which is 21 one-cent stamps.
Send these with your address to the
World’s Dispensary Medical Association
Buffalo N. Y. or if preferred send 31 stamps
for a heavier cloth-bound copy.

tion suffers from slow poisoning. Doctor

teach Spain a lesson through our noble
Commodore Dewey to respect the abili-
ty of America in enforcing their de-
mands for humanity. And it's high
time for you to leave off that heavy

THOSE “PATRIOTIC” DRY GOODS
CLERKS.
From the St. Joseph News.
‘‘l want to buy some Spanish yarn”
said a man in one of "the dry goods
stores the other day. He had been
told by his wife to make such a pur-
chase.
The clerk looked at him with suspi-
cion thought of the impending strife
and said there was no yarn of that
kind in that emporium.
"We don’t keep it now” she added.
In another dry goods store the same
man asked for Spanish yarn and there
was trouble at once. The clerk was
a man and he was patriotic. He look-
ed at the would-be purchaser with
open and avowed contempt.
“I don’t think you wil find any
Spanish yarn in town” he said: “We
had some of it but it has all been put
away.”
By that time the man bent on pur-
chasing Spanish yarn began to realize
the he was on an unpopular mission.
He had understood that Spanish yarn
was not made in Spain and perhaps it
is not but that made no difference.
The name was enough. It aroused-
the patriotism of every clerk asked to
sell it.
Half a dozen places were tried but
no Spanish yarn was to be found. In
some of the stores the man in quest
of it was plainly regarded as a traitor.
In others he was treated with the con-
tempt the clerks thought he deserved.
If any of the places had Spanish yarn
the clerks would not condescend to
sell it. The quest lasted half an hour
and by that time the man was begin-
ning to be pointed out as a traitor.
People on the street heard something
about it and in another hour he -would
have been mobbed. He went home
and kept out of sight a day or two
until the storm of indignation was
over. x
Then his wife went into a dry goods
store and bought the yarn she wanted
without the slightest trouble. It was
known by another name and when she
asked for it the clerks produced it
without a word.

TO REJUVENATE STRAW HATS.
Women’s black straw hates may be
given a new lease of life by revarnish-
ing them which really takes the place
of dyeing using some black sealing
wax pounded into small pieces ard
over which enough methylated spirits
to dissolve it has been poured; then
mix thoroughly and apply with a soft
brush to the hat covering every crev-
ice of the straw. Blue straw hats
may be freshened in the same man-
ner using blue sealing-wax.—June La-
dies' Home Journal.
Mr. John Peterson of Patoutvllle
La. was very agreeably surprised not
long ago. For eighteen months he
had been troubled with dysentery and
had tried three of the best doctors in
New Orleans besides half a dozen or
more patent medicines but received
very little relief. Chamberlain's Colic
Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy hav-
ing been recommended to him he
gave it a trial and to his great sur-
prise three doses of that remedy ef-
fected a permanent cure. Mr. Wm.
McNamara a well known merchs.nt of
the same place is well acquainted
with Mr. Peterson and attest to tt-
truth of this statement. This rem***
is for eale by all druggists.

HOME MADE CREAM CHEESE.
Cream cheese may be made at home
providing you follow carefully the
rules. Take four quarts of good thick
milk pour into it two quarts of boiling
water; then turn into a bag and drain
over night. Next morning rub this
cheese to a smooth pulp and press
through a fine sieve; add gradually a
tablespoonful of melted butter or two
tablespoonfuls of thick scream. Pack
this into small cups and stand in a
cool place for about two or three
weeks; at the end of that time the
top may be removed and the cheese
turned from the cups for use.—Ladies’
Home Journal.
Deafness Cannot be Cored
by local applications as they cannot reach ths
diseased portion of the ear. There is only one
way to cure Deafness and that is by constitu-
tional remedies. Deafness is caused by an in-
flamed condition of the mucous lining of the
Eustachian Tube. When this tube gets|inflamed
you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hear-
ing and when it is entirely closed Deafness is
the result and unless the indammation can be
taken out and this tube restored to its normal
condition hearing will be destroyed forever;
Bine cases out of ten are caused by catarrh
which is nothing but an inflamed condition of
tbe mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars for any
ease of Deafness (caused by catarrh) that can-
not be cured by Hall’s Catarrh Cure. Send for

THE ESKIMO AND PUNCH AND JU-
DY.
Some time ago a skipper who visited
the arctic regions presented the head
man of an Eskimo community with a
Punch and Judy show he had on board
and gave the native instructions as to
how to work the figures'. The Es-
kimo’s son is now said to be art expert
at the business and in a hut nightly
throughout the long winter makes the
familiar marionettes dance about .to
the intense delight of his fur-encased
friends. The show is known among
the Eskimos by something like its Eng-
lish name only they pronounce it
"Bootantoody.”

WHY TICKETS ARE PUNCHED.
‘Two or three little matters in the
conduct of American railway traffic
have always been a stumbling block to
me” writes an Englishman. "First
why do they still retain the warning
that the ticket is not transferable; no
one has the smallest objection to give
or to take an unused ticket; we are al-
ways transferring tickets. Next why
do they punch tickets? It must cost
an immense sum of money to keep these
guards and officers at work punching
as Mark Twain said ‘Punch brothers;
punch with care; punch in the presence
of the passengaire.’ Punching seems
to answer no useful purpose. At some
stations they seem to care very little
whether they punch or not. Anxious
to clear up this point so long doubtful
I asked a functionary the other day
why his company commanded him to
punch when he might happen to think
of it. His reply I tender for what it
is worth because I doubt the alleged
philanthropy of the directors. The
reason is’ he said ‘that the company
is anxious to make the tickets as light
as possible for the passengers to car-
ry.’ ”
“I would not be without Chamber-
lain's Cough Remedy for its weight
in gold” writes D. J. Jones of Hol-
land Va. “My wife was troubled with
a cough for nearly two years. I
tried various remedies besides nu-
merous prescriptions from physicians
all of which did no good. I was at ast
persuaded to try a bottle of Chamber-
lain's Cough Remedy which promptly
relieved the cough. The second bot-
tle effected a complete cure.” The 25
and 50 cent bottles are for sale by all
druggists.
ENGLISH MAN TO SPANISH LADY.
Sir Walter Besant writing in the
London Queen says:
“A Spanish lady has written to the
editor of the paper concerning certain
remarks of mine about the sympathies
of the English race. lam very sorry
that any words of mine should have
given offense to any Spaniard. History
however cannot be set aside out of po-
liteness. The Spanish nation has al-
ways shown many great ’ and noble
qualities; never at any time have they
failed to show respect for their ene-
mies; but we cannot help remembering
that they were our enemies from the
middle of rhe Sixteenth to the middle
of the Nineteenth century; we stood for
freedom of thought; they stood for au-
thority; we stood for the liberty of the
people; they stood for despotism. To
recall these facts and all that they
mean ought not to offend anyone. I
take off my hat with the greatest re-
spect to the Spaniard. 'Sir you are a
gentleman by birth and long descent;
you are also a gentleman by breeding;
you are a gentleman of courage tried
and proved and of patriotism undoubt-
ed; you are like Don Quixote for honor
and for courtesy. But sir you do not
think as we do; and in the present crisis
our sympathies are naturally with the
people who do think as we do.”

THEY ARE ‘ROUND HERE YET.
The soldiers have departed
The Texas quota is filled;
The {rue and loyal hearted
Soon will be where blood is epilled
Fighting ‘neath that flag the proud-
est
On which mens eyes are set
But the ones who talked the loudest
Are around here yet.
To judge from their oration.
The supreme desire then bore
Was to fight with all creation
And to wade in Spanish gore
You /would think that each spare
minute
They used and they’re not in it.
They are around here yet.
Our coasts were well protected
And McKinley was too slow
They and we expected
When the call came they would go;
But when the regiment
On Cuba’s soil you bet.
After all their brag and bluster
They are around here yet.
Their jaws are still in motion.
According to their notion
They’re the ones who know it all.
All that’s done seems to encourage
them
And make them fume and fret;
Miles and Sampson should engage
them
They are around here yet.
