Won1an's Province.
The Duties ofme Center .Ser-Ho,o
Best Fulfilled.

What a great task is assigned to
woman, its dignity cannot be elevated.
1t is not her rprovincc to make laws, to
lead armies, nor to be at the head of
great enterprises, but to her is given
the power to form those by whom tho
laws are made. to teach the leaders of
mighty armies, and the governors Of
vast empires. She is required to
guard against having the slightest
taint of bodily infrmity touch tho
frail creature, whose moral, inteIlec-
tuaI and physical being is derived
from her. She must instill correct
principles, inculcatc right doctrines,
and breathe into the soul of her off
spring those pure sentiments which i'll
time to come will be n part of them
selves, and bless generations as yet
unborn. Yes to woman is given the
blessed privilege Of aiding the suffer-
crs in all the various stages of his cX-
istcncc. She smiles screncly at the
christening, and wccps ut the burial,
while she soothcs the bcrcavcd heart.
This is her province and duty. Yet
how can she fulfill her mission unless
and is possessed of a strong and heal
thy body? The preparation known
rs PEEuNA, is just the thing for all
persons suffering from majority Of
the complaints incident to this cIi-
mate. 1t is invaluable to woman, and
Mrs. j. w. Reynolds, of New Libson,
Columbiana county, is n noted eX-
ample Of what the medicine can do.
She says she had suffered for years
with congestion of the lungs, catarrh
in the head, and was troubled with n
bad cough. She had tried n number
of physicians, put they all failed to
cure her. She was induced to try
PEEuNA. and Immediately a marked
change took place. After using ono
bottle her cough ceased, and in
short time her other ailments were
cured. She is now completely re-
stored to health and gives all tho
credit to PEKuNA.
