Her Secret Troubles.
THE UNKNOWN TRIALS wiIiCu a WOMEN
ENDURED WITHOUT COMPLAINT
WHY THEY VANISHED.


Near the close Of one of the most
trying of the few hot days Of the pres
ent year n pale, care-worn woman
might have been seen at the window
of her dwelling apparently in a cond
ton of complete exhaustion. Her ef-
forts to meet the accumulated duties of
her household had been great but un-
successful, while the care of a sick
child, whose walls could even then be
heard, was added to her otherwise over
whalming troubles. Nature had done
mudh for her and 10 her Youthful days
she had been not only beautiful but the
possessor of health such as is seldom
seen. But home and family duties and
the depressing cares which too often
accompany them had proven greater
than her splendid strength aud she felt
at that moment not only that life was
a burden but that death would be- a
grand relief This is no unusual on
pericncc. 1t is, in fact, n most com
mon everyday occurrence, and great
prayer is constantly ascending from
thousands of homes of deliverance
from the deadly power which is enslav-
ing SO many wives, mothers and daugh-
ters And yet these duties of life must
be met. No woman can afford TO turn
aside from the proper care of her home
and the ones who are committed to her
care, although in doing these duties she
may sacrifice her health, and possibly
life itself. The experience of one who
successfully overcame such trials and
yet retained health and all the bless
ings it brings is thus told by Rev VIII.
liam Watson, Presiding Elder of the
Methodist-Episcopal church, residing
at Watertown, n Y He said 1:
"My wife became completely run
down through overwork and care OF a
sick member of our housed old, and |
entertained serious apprehensions as to
her future She was languid, pale, ut
terly exhausted, without appetite, aud
in complete state ofphysicial decline.
And yet she did not, could not neglect
her duties. | have seen her about the
house, trying courageously to care for
the ones she loved when could tell,
from the lines upon her face how much
she was suffering. At times she would
rally for day OF two and then fall
back into the state of nervous exhaus
ton she felt before. Her head panied
her frequently, her body was becoming
bowed by pain and all hope or enjoy
ment in life seemed departed. What
to do we could not tell. l resolved,
however, to bring back her life and vi
tality if possible and to this end began
to treat her myself. To my great re
lief her system has been toned up, her
strength restored, her health complete
ly recovered and wholly by the use of
Warrer's Tippecanoe, which regard
as the greatest tonic, invigorator and
stomach remedy that has ever been
discovered. was led to use it the
more readily as had tested the health
restoring properties of Warmers Safe
Cure in my own person and therefore
knew that any remedy Mr.. Warner
might produce would be valuable one.
have since recommended both War
ner's Tippecanoe and Warmers Safe
Cure to many of my friends aud !
know several Doctors of Divinity as
well as numerous laymen who are using
both with great benefit"
If all the overworked and duty dri.
ven women of America could know of
the experience above described, and act
} upon the same, there can be little doubt
that much of the pain, and most of the
depressing influences of life might be
avoided. Such truths are too valuable
to remain unknown.
