LYONS PERIODICAL DROPS.
THE GREAT FEMALE REMEDY
FOR IRREGULARITIES.


1 have tested these drops in my own practice
over ten years, and do not hesitate to say, that
nothing has yet been developed by medical re-
search, that acts powerfully, positively, and
harmlessly, in cases of female irregularity, as
does this medicine. In all recent cases it never
fails, while thousands who have been long suffer-
ers are indebted to it for the boon of health to-
day.
Although so powerful and positive, they are
perfectly harmless, and may be used at all times,
except when specially forbidden in the directions.
They have been extensively employed by emf
nentpbysicians in France and England, as well
as in my own practice, over ten yeats, and have
vet to hear of the first instance of failure. I
could give you testimonials of their efficacy from
ladies all over the northern and western states,
were they not in their nature private. Over 1907
600 bottles have been sold the past year, and
hope and trust as many sufferers have been bene-
fitted. I am well aware teat a remedy so potent
to remove all obstructioEs, may be used for q bad
purpose. but trust that where bottle is TINS
used, ten may fall into the hands of really needy
sufferers.
To all who suffer from any irregularty; pain
full, difficult, excessive offensive obstructed
Menstruation, Lucorrhea, the train of diseases
that follow, would say, try bottle of DR.. Ly-
ons French Periodical Drops. Being a fluid
preparation their action is more direct and posi-
tive than any pills or powders. Explicit direc
tlons, wearing my facsimile, accompany each bot
tie.
They may be obtained of nearly every druggist
in the.eountry, by inclosing the price to c. G.

for our mediation and our efforts. Our
task at this moment is to form the public
manners 10 the pattern of more liberal in
situations. Hitherto in France liberty has
only been ephemeraI. 1t has not been
able to take root in the soil because
abuse has Immediately followed USE, and
the nation rather preferred to limit the
exercise Of its rights than 10 endure dis
order IN ideas as we'll as in things. It is
worthy Of you and me 10 make a broader
aPp;lcation of these great principles
winch constitute the glory of France.
Their development will not as formerly
endanger the necessary prestige Of autho-
rity. Power is now firmly based, and
ardent passions, the sole obstacle to tho
expansion of our liberties, will become
exllnguiShed in the immensely of univer-
sal suffrage. [ have full confidence in
the good sense and patriotism Of the PEG
pie, and strong in the right which I hold
from them, strong in my conscience,
which is solely DESTROYS Of good, I invite
you to march with me with a firm step

OF whom have constantly sustained my
courage in the always difficult task of
governing a people, you will continue to
be, with me, the faithful guardians Of the
true interests and the real greatness of
the country.
"These interests impose upon rs obi
cations WI shall know how to flu fill.
France is respected abroad. The army
has displayed lts va.of, but The conditions
of war being changed it requires the.io-
Gre ase ofour defensive forces, and W8fnu81
organize ourselves In such Il munler as to
be invulnerabIe. The Bill upon this sub
ject, which has been prepared with the
greatest care, lightens the burden of the
cOnscription in the time of peace, pro-
vides considerable resources in time of
war, and, re-distributing burdens between
all in a fair proportion, thus satisfies the
principles of equality. 1t possesses al!
the importance of an institution of the
country, and | feel convinced it will be ac-
cepted with patriotism.
s.The influence Of a nation depends
upon the number Of men it is able to put
under arms. Do not forget that neigh
bouring States impose upon themselves
far heavier sacrifices for the effective con-
slitution of their armies, and have their
eyes fixed upon Us, to Judge by Your re-
solutions whether the influence of France
shall increase or diminish throughout the
world. Let US constantly keep our ma
tional standard at the same level. 1t is
the most certain means Of preserving
peace, aud that peace must be rendered
fruitful by allevlaling misery and i%ncreas-
ing general prosperity.
''Heavy trials have assaulted us in the
course of the past year. foundations and
epidemicS have desolated some Of our
departments. Benevolence has assuaged
individual suffering, and credits will be
asked Of you to repair the disasters caused
to public property. Notwithstanding
these partial calamitieS, the progress of
general prosperity has not relaxed. Dur
ing the last financial period the indirect
revenue has increased by so millions, and
foreign by upwards of one mill
lion of francs. The general Improvement
Of our finances will soon allow US to give
satisfaction upon a large scale to agricul-
tural aud economic interests, brought into
light by the inquiry opened in all parts
of the country. Our attention must then
be turned to the reduction of certain bur
dens which weigh too heavily upon land
ed property, and which prevent the spec
dy completion of the channels of internal
navigation, of our ports, our railways,
and especially of cross roadside indis-
pensabIe agents for effective distribution

prevent dangerous complications. At
Rome we have faithfully executed the
convention of the 18th Of September.
The Government of the Holy Father has
entered into q fresh place. Left TO itself,
it maintains itself by its own strength, by
the veneration which is felt by all tow
ards the Head of the Catholic Church,
and the surveillance loyalty exercised
upon his frontiers by the Italian Govern
ment. But if democratic conspiracles
should audaciously seek to threaten the
temporal power of the Holy See, Europe,
I do not doubt, would not permit the
accomplishment of an event which would
throw such great trouble on the Catholic
world.
II have only to congratulate myself
upon my relations with foreign Powers.
Our c~onnexion with England becomes
daily more intimate by the similarity of
our policy and the multiplicity of our
&C commercial relations. Prussia seeks to
avoid anything which might arouse our
national susceptibilities, and agrees with
us upon the chief European questions.
Russia, inspired by conciIiatory intentions,
is not disposed to separate her policy in
the East from that of France. The same
is the case with the Empire Of Austria,
the greatness of which is indispensable
to the general equilibrium. A recent
Commercial Treaty has created new ties
between the two countries. Lastly, Spain
and Italy are upon terms OF sincere agree
ment with US.
"Thus, therefore, nothing in present
circumstances need excite our uneasiness,
and [ entertain the firm conviction that
peace will not be disturbed.
'Assured of the present, confident Of
the future, I have thought the time had
arrived to develope our institutions You
have expressed your wishes 10 me every
year that this should be effected, although
Justly convinced that progress can only
be accomplished by complete harmony
between the authorities you had contlded
to me-and I thank you for your conf
dence-the privileges of deciding upon
the moment when | might think the real
ization of your desires possible. Now,
after Is years of calm and prosperity,
due TO our common efforts and TO your
profound devotion 10 the institutions OF
the Empire, it has appeared to me that
the time had come 10 adopt the liberal
measures which lay in the minds of the
Senate and to meet the aspirations of the
Corps Legislatif. I respond to your ex-
pectations, and, without departing from
the Constitution, I propose 10 you laws
which offer new guarantees for political
liberty.
sThe nation, which does justice to my
efforts, and which again recently in Lor-
raine gave such touching proofs of its
attachment to my dynasty, will make a
wise use of these new rights. Justly

Beyond Me Mssisstppi:" a Complete
History OF the Neso States and Territories,
from, the Great Rirer to the Great Ocean, by
Albert D. Richardson. This is a most enter
tanning and valuable book, and its populari-
ty is attested by the sale of over &c, 900
copies in single month. The Author s
long and varied experience in the little known
and interesting regions of the Far West, fur>
nishes the valuable material for its contents.
Mr.. Richardson is widely known as one of
our most brilliant journalists and writers.
He is always interesting, generally amusing,
and, better still, invariably truthful.
The volume before us is accompanied by an
accurate and minute map OF the entire region
beyond the Mississippi, and is elegantly
printed and profusely illustrated with over
two hundred engravings from original pho.
tographs.
tits credit to American authorship, and
not only the most valuable work from Mr..
| Richardson's pen, but by far the best and
most complete history of The great West ever
issued. We predict for this book an unpre-
cedented sale. "All Young America ex-
pect to 60 West and seek their fortunes when
the Pacific Railroad is built, if not before,
and will read with avidity beyond the Mis-
sissippi.'
This work, We understand, is sold~only by
subscription, and is just such q one as per-
sons seeking to act as agents should add to
their list. 1t is publised By the National
