Diseases Peculiar to Ladies
s:Fn6

During the rast eleven years !
have suffered with the falling OF
the womb, a weakening discharge,
pains across tie back, pulling down
pains, and all kinds of distress pc
culiar to my sex, brought on by
various causes. | had been can
terized, mercurialized, injected, and
went through with all painful and
unpleasant treatment of family doc
tors, and grew worse under it. A
few days ago I consulted DR.. Jones,
who told me he could soon relieve
me and finally cure me. [ paid
him his fee and told him | was his
patient, and to my great JOY his
treatment was totally different from
all other, accompanied with no pain
nor unpleasantness, and relieved me
in one half hour; and [ have been
under his treatment now seven days,
and can walk and work like a young
girl. Thus this great master ply
sician had cured me after nineteen
family doctors had utterly failed.
| shall never forget DR.. Jones, and |
feel it my duty to recommend DR..
Jones to all afflicted ladies,
Mrs. MARY CALDWELL,
CHATTANOOGA, Tenn, Jan. l, 81.
DR.. Jones who cured this lady is
now practicing at the Hattie House,

There is no reason to fear that
Gen. Grant will starve before Con
gress can assist him. The Phila-
delphia charity fund, amounting to
100000, is ready to be handed over
to him, and Mr.. Geo. Jones, Of the
New York Times, states very posi-
lively that the New York charity
fund has all but reached the con-
templated amount of $250,0O0, and
no subscriber has expressed the
slightest desire to withdraw his sub
scription. The majority of the sub
scriptions to that fund have been
given with the declared purpose of
providing an annuity for ex-Presi-
dent Grant. Other little drabs from
various parts of the country, includ-
ing Boston, are also finding their
way to the ex-President, and he
will be able to keep body and soul
together until a Republican Con-
gress gets a chance to drop a few
more hundreds of thousands in the
hat By the way, there is also the
Sunday-school children's penny sub
scription fund; that may come along
after while and help to keep the
wolf from the door. Taking in the
whole situation there appears to be
no danger that we are going to al
low Grant to starve.

Byron wrote beautiful poem about
a dog, and one of Ouidas most cclebra-
ted novels is an autobiography Of dog,
full of praise for all dogs as superior to
men. We don't believe if Ouida had
had an experience with dogs she would
have written "Puck." Her deg was a
little, white, woolly thing, called Nal
tcse, though it "ncvcr saw Malta" just
as many persons are called Colonel or
CAPTAIN who never eft battle" If
Ouida had known anything about the
great ours, hounds, and halt-brccds in
this section; if she loved mutton, or adj
mrcd garments made Of wool, and had
known how many sheep are killed in Il
single night by proving dogs; if she
had ever seen u person die with hydro
phobia caused by the bite Of a mad dog,
and known that yearly thousands OF hui
man beings die from this cause; II she had
ever garlencd any and had her beds all
tracked up and ruined by trampng

daubed the next day by the filthy
tracks of these transitory CANNES, she

See here, gentlemen, swearing IS a
bad practice. How would you like to
hear your children using profanc Ian
guage on the streets, or anywhere else,
for that matter? OF course it would be
mortifying to you, Then don't set the
example for them. Children delight in
trying to follow the footsteps of their
parents, and if you do wrong and they
do the same, you alone are accountable
for it. If you want your children to be
good, be good yourself; if you want
your children to live just and upright
lifc-do nothing that will bring dis
honor to your gray hairs-set the exam
pie yourself, and they'll follow it. If
you want your children to be christians,
be a christian yourself. Be christian
and your children will reap the benefits
fit. Better reform right now, sinner.
"'Now is the accepted time" If you
put it off you'll regret it-maybe at your
dcath-bed, when it is too late.
