81. Baldwin, of Monroe City, Ind, writes
under date of Dec. 5, 1877, that his wife used
DIR. Pierce's Fsvorite Prescription with won
derful results. 1t effected her entire cure
after several physicians had failed. The many
similar letters positively affirming that the
favorite prescription had cured the diseases
and weaknesses peculiar to women, induced
DIR. Pierce to sell it under guarantee. La.
dies need no longer submit to useless and
painful local treatment, as the favorite pre-
scription is safe, sure and speedy cure.
Hundreds who had been bedsridden for
years have been restored to perfect health

the barrels. The o'clock bell rang and
the bar was closed. oil of the inmates

went out of tho bac!. or rather sitIe door,

deliberately stepped aside and fired at

where this mysterious poison turks, though
no one knows what it Is. They can tell
you the very area, to IN acre, where it
exists. It Is generally deep, damp coves
Of the mountains, on the North sides.
To escape the poison, every farmer who
lives in the vicinity of an infected spot
keeps up his milk cattle in,a pasture aud
never uses the meat ofcattie thathaye been
running in that range. They are gener-
ally more afraid OK the disease than
strangers who have net witnessed fits ter
ribie effects, and yoo need not fear to use
the butter and mix from their table
Hotel persons too are .ery careful from
whom they purchase these things, though
occasionally cases have occurred from
butter In which they have been deceived
/ knew one instance Of this, where the
hostess herself WAS poisoned but recover

! neglected to say that horses are ms
liable to become poisoned rs cattle, and
often die when driven off TO market, the
driving developing the disease. I hope
this may not be entirely devoid Of inter.

of this curious poison.

Tributes to Women.
SOCIAL.

E SOCIAL. 80
II Is because Women have greater tact
than men that they prove the most infiu-
entail teachers. They have more self.
restraint than men and are naturally
more gracious and polite. In matters of
social detail, aptness and dexterity come
to them like nature, and hence, we'll
hammered men usually receive their best
culture by mixing In the society of gen.
tie and adroit women.-lSamuei. Smile.
e5a PERSONAL.
We cannot conceive woman as distinct,
distant, unrelated; she seems go person.
al, concrete, 80 near; yet we can never
quite come up TO her disccrnments, nor
gainsay their delicacy and truthfulncss.
The very name Of woman becomes soled
if we seek to be related to her by the
coarse ties of appetite instead of the
charm OF ideas. Endowed with nagnet-
ie gifts, by necessity of sex O reaii>. and
diyiner, lives nearest the cardinal facts
of existence, instinct with the mysteries
OF love and fate; romance ever attach.
ing itself to her name and destiny.-A.
u. AicoH.
FANCIFUL.
Women are such strange creatures Is
there any trick that love and their own
fancies do not play them? Just SEQ how
they marryl A woman that gets hold OF
bit Of manhood is like one of those
Chinese wood. .carvers who work on any
odd, fantastic root that comes to had. I
should like to see any kind of man, dis.
tinguished from gorilla, that some good
and even pretty woman could not shape
husband out of.-O. ". Holmes.
POWERFUL.
When the people talk of woman's
claims and woman's rights think OF the
tournaments of former days. II the Ia
dies had descended into the arena, the
most OF them would have made but sorry
knights, whereas, remaining in the gale
ry, 1t was they who gave the prizes and
IT was to win the need Of praise from
them that each knight did his best.
There is something Of the same kind
even in the most unchivalrous nges.-.
Arthur Helps.
MIRTHFUL.
see how IL is. Woman il now su.
preme in the house. She will gradually
control everything. Woman Is one Of
the ablest and most cunning creatures
who have ever mingled In human affairs.
