A FEW WORDS TO FEEBLE AND DELL
CATE WOMEN

By r. V. PIERCE, NJ. D., of the Worlds Dis
pensary, Buffalo, n. Y, author of "Ihe
Peoples Common Sense Medical Adviser"
etc., etc.
Knowing that you are subject to a great
amount of suffering, that delicacy on your
pant has a strong tendency to prolong it.,
and the longer it is neglected the more
you have to endure and the more fficult
OF cure your case becomes, j, as a ply ST.
clan, who sm daily consulted by seer OF
your sex, desire TO say to you that / am
constantly meeting with those who have
been treated for their ailments for months
without being benefited in the least, until
they have become perfectly discouraged
and have almost made up their mind never
to take another dose OF medicine, or be
tortured by any further treatment. They
had rather die and have their s1ff5rings
ended than to live aud suffer as they have.
They say they are worn out by suffering,
and are only made worse by treatment
OF anything more discouraging we GER
tainly can not conceive, and were there no
more successful mode of treating such
difficulties than that, the principles OF
which teach the reducing and depicting of
the vital forces of the system, when the
Indications dictate treatment directly
the reverse of the one adopted for them,
their case would be deplorable indeed.
But, lady sufferers, there is better and
far more successful plan OF trea ment for
you; one more in harmony with the laws
and requirements of your system. A
harsh, irritating, cadstic treatment and
strong medicines will never cure you. If
you would use rational means, such as
common sense should dictate to every in
telligent lady, take such medicines as en-
body the very best invigors ting tonics and
nervines, compounded with special refer
ence to your delicate sys EN-. Such
happy combination you will find in my
Favorite Prescription, which has received
the highest praise from thousands OF your
sex. Those lapguid, tiresome sensations,
causing you to feel scarcely able to be on
your feet or ascend a flight of stairs; that
continual drain, that is sapping from our
system all your former elasticity, and
driving the bloom from your cheeks; that
continual strain upon your vital forces
that renders you irritable and fretful-
may all be overcome and subduei by
p r.evering use ofthst marvellous remedy.
irregularities and distractions to the
proper working of your system are re-
lieved by this mild aud safe means, while
periodical pains, the existence of which is
a sure indication of serious disease that
should not be neglected, readily yield to
j., and II its use be kept up for a reason
able length OF time, the special cause OF
th Sc pans Is permanently removed.
Further light on these subjects may be
obtained from "The Peoples Common
Sense Medical Adviser" in which 1 have
devo ed large space to the consideration
of ali forms of disease peculiar to your
sex. This work will be sent (post paid) to
any address on receipt of 81 80. My Fa.
vorite Prescription is sold by druggists.

No. 3, whyi that put new face upon the
matter, and people felt much more inter-
est in the lady than in the gentleman
About thirty, slender, graceful and lady
like, fau1tlessly dressed and wearing q
charming set of features, it was difficult
TO imagine her sharing her husband with
anybody else. She is philadelphia,
respectfully connected and we'll educated.
Journeying across the plains seven years
ago she met her "JohD," third son OF
Brigham. 1t was an unmistskable case OF
affinity, both were desperately in love,
but John bad already two Mormon help
meets. In her creed they were no wives
at all, and she wanted John; 81, reaching
Utan, the conditions were made. II John
would pot away the incompatibles, she
would be Mrs. Young. John made pro
vision for tire females aforesaid; Miss -
espoused the Mormon faith and John at
the same time, but coming Eas, again
she was remarked in orthodox fashion in
Gentle church. John is perfectly de-
voted to her and she is extremely happy.
OBJECTS OF COMMITS RATION.
The Boston Advertiser gives the follow
ing case as calling for sympathy: The
stockholders of the Consolidated Virginia
Mining Company desire the sympathy of a
plying public. The circumstances are
SntsS. In0 Ola STOCK OF t00 company was
of a nominal value of 10,0S0 900. On this
capital it has been tee practice OF the COM
pany to paw dividends OF $40 a share
monthly, making an aggregate sum at
each division OF 81 ,0S0, 600. As his seemed
TO be rather large percentage OF dividend
being an annual return of l20 per cent on
the nominal capital, 1t was deemed best to
increase the capital, without, however
increasing the amount actually inv. s ed.
Accordingly, q month or two ago, five new
shares were issued for every old one, and
the capital was thus made up to S54, 600, 600.
Last month the product of bullion was
s., 800. 900, and the expenses were about
$500, zoe. This lett sum of 50 zoo, 900 that
might be divided. The managers, how
ever, determined not to increase the divi-
dend, but to carry the excess to the
amount of surplus. Thus the poor sock
holders got only their 81, 0S0, O00 or two per
cent month on the new stock, and the
enormous sum of 81. 1900 remains undi-
vided. There Is much dissatisfaction in
consequence. Still, In these dull times
almost anybody would be contsnted with
shares that, at the present market value
return about thirty dollars year for every
hundred dollars paid out for them. 1t is
certain too, that IL the present rate of pro-
duction continues it Will be impossible for
the company to make any use OF the vast
sum that must be carried to the account of
surplus, and then the profits must be
divided.
