Woman.

Her health and life depend more on the
regularity of her menstrual functions than
on any or all causes combined. An actual
or living death is the inevitable result Of
arrangement OF n function which makes wo-
man what She is in every respect, and es~
pccially in her mental and bodily constitu
ton. Hence, immediate relief from such
arrangements is the only safeguard against
wreck and ruin. In all cases of stoppagc
delay, or othet irregu!arify of the ''courses,'
DIR. j. BnADfIELDs FEMALE REGULATOR

tone to the nervous centres, improving the

MYSTERY OF MISSING MEN,
Fitting from Home Because Of Some idle
Within.

One Of the best men ever knew here-a
man OF sirty-five years, who loved his home
and family dearly, and had no reason for
excentrioity-slh ed away one afternoon
went to Boston md then to Washington,
and for two years drove car there, re.
naming away because he thought his wife
would manage his affairs better without
him. He never intended TO return, but
was seen by chance, arrested as lunatic,
and given his choice TO be confined IN an
asylum or to do his duty Is a man, He
came back, and, after two happy years
at home, died In his wife's arms.
In another case that I remember,
a gentleman was supposed to have
committed suicide by jumping from
a steamboat. His wife made no fuss, but
kept the matter quiet because she alone
never gave up the idea that his suicide was
q sham, and for three years she hunted him
down, and finally restored him to his homo
and business. third case of which had
personal knowledge was that ora dry goods
merchant who was absent for twenty years,
and who returned wealthy, made himself
known to his wife, who had been married
in the meantime, sought out his son and
gave him $4,000. and then went bis way as
he had come. He said no had left home be.
