For Weak Women.

MRS. LYDIA E. PINKHAM: GAbout the
first Of September, 1881, my wife was taken
with uterine hemorrhage. The best styp-
tics the physician could prescribe did not
check it and she got more and more en-
feebled. She was troubled with Prolapsus
Uteri, Leucorrhea, numbness of the limbs,
sickness of the stomach and loss of appe-
tite. l purchased trial bottle of your
Vegetable Compound. She said she could
discover a salutary effect from the first dose.
Now she is comparatively free from the
Prolapsus, Stomach's sickness, &c. The
hemorrhage is very much better and is
less at the regular periods. Her appetite
is restored, and her general health and
strength are much improved. We feel that
we have been wonderfully benefited and
our hearts are drawn out in gratitude for
the same and in sympathy for other suf-
ferers, for whose sakes we allow our names
to be used"

Keeping Flowers.

A gentleman from Utica, in Louis
vile, who wished to send some beauti.
full flower buds to his wife, was at a
loss how to do so. A florist friend said
he would fix them. He cut potato in
two pieces and bored holes in them,
into which he inserted the stems of the
buds, and placed them in box with
cotton to support them. A letter from
the recipient acknowledged the remem-
brance and SAID that the buds had de-
veloped into full-blown flowers. There
is sufficient moisture in a good sized
potato to support a flower for two
weeks in a moderately cool tempera'
ture. Flowers from bouquets may be
preserved in the same way. The pota-
toes can be h dden by leaves or moses

The killing of G. NJ. Hodges, at
Cetulla, suggests the idea of a change
in the treatment of murder cases. Let
it be understood that when enc man
kills another the killer shall be shot
down on sight, and then hold the third
party to answer to the charge OF the
first killing only and show justification
or take the consequences. Ii every
man knew that if he should kill an
other man, the justification of it
would be tried after his own death,
which must speed ly follow the original
killing, the tendency would be to make
fewer reports of bloody deeds.-San

Painful Impressions.

A remarkable characteristic Of the
average newspaper reader of the day Is
the eagerness and ayidity one seeks for
painful impressions caused by perusing
accounts of human suffering. Is there
railroad accident, q steamboat disas-
ter, hanging, lynching, murder or
anything of this nature wildly written
up and glowingly pictured in reporto-
rial descriptive style, it at once becomes
the most interesting item of the paper.
Managers of our large and most success
full metropolitan dailies pander to this
corrupt and morbid taste of their pa
irons. A reporter will be dispatched a
hundred miles to gather the latest and
most minute details of some licentious
rape or revolving murder, while the
deeds of the good and the virtuous are
never known outside narrow limit
Full many a rose is born to blush unseen
And waste its fragrance on the desert

All this is evidence of mental disease,
truth that can not be contradicted.

with them it is "peace on earth and
good will toward men," Heaven on

ness and all their paths are peace" Not
all are conscious of their mental i'm
pairment; SO long have they suffered
from urinary, digestive aud nervous dis
