A BEAUTIFUL WOMAN. The percep'
tive faculty of women is usually keener
than the same physiological organ IN
men. Woman knows that beauty rather
than genius is worshiped by the s%terner
sex. A man may talk with his lips OF
the latter to his lady love, but the Keen
ness of the woman knows that he IS
thinking of the former in his heart. All
women have an innate desire to please
their beanx. They are fond OF admlra-
ton, hence one of their longings is TO
be beautiful. The grand secret OF 10.
male beauty is health-the secret OF
health is the power to cat, digest and
assimilate o proper quantity OF whole,
some food. Take Vinegar Bitters. 1t
will cleanse the stomach, tone the vital
organs, give a perfect digestion, purify
the blood, clear up the complexion ana
produce q state of mental and physical
electricity which gives symmetry OF
form, bright eyes, white skin, glossy
hair and a genuine type OF female love-
illness which no cosmetic can compare
with.

A Wrong Custom Corrected.

1t is quite generally the custom to take
strong liver stimulants TOR tho cure OF lVef
complaint, and both the mineral and ve,ge,,
table kingdoms have been diligently searched
to procure the most drastic and poisonous pur-
g~atiyes, in order to produce a powerful erect
feebled organ. This System OF treatment IS
on the same principle as that of giving weak
and debilitated man large portions Of brandy
to enable him to do a certain amount OF work.
When the stimulant is withheld, the organ,
like tho system, gradually relapse1 into a more
torpid or sluggish and weakened condition
than before. What, then, is wanted? Medl'
cines, which, while they cause the bile to now
freely from the liver, M that organ il toned
into action. will not overwork aud thus debit
tate it, but will, when their use is discon in
