Cure of Pleurisy.


Ninety Main street. Gloucester, Mass.
April Is, lSS6-Allcock's Porous Plasters
have been used in our family for the last
three or four years with very beneficial
results Previous 80 that time I had
been subject to attacks of a severe pain
ia my left side. Hot cloths and lini.
ments afforded temporary relief, but
after a while the pain always returned.
In the fall of 1880, after a very severe
attack, | was I'D gised by a friend Il try
an Allcock's Porous Plaster on my side,
which greatly benefited me. After that
| tried several kinds of piasters to see
which was best, and finally decided that
Allcock's suited my ease the best. I
have worn them constantly on my side
ever since, and have never been troubled
with the pain. except when I left them
off for q few days. We always keep q
supply in the house, and whenever q
pain seizes any of us, in any part of the
body. we Just apply an Allcock's Plaster,
and can most heartily recommend them.

Piles are frequently preceded by q sense
Of weight in the back. loius and lower part
Of the abdomen, causing the patient TO
suppose he has some affection Of the kid
nsys or n~elghboring organs. At times,
symptoms OF indigestion are present, as
fatulency, uneasiness OF the stomach, etc.
A moisture, like preparation, producing a
disagreeable itching, after getting warm is
q common attendant. Blind, bleeding
and itching Piles yield at once TO the ap-
plication Of Bosanko's Pile Remedy, which
acts directly upon the parts affected,
absoi bling the tumors, allaying the intense
itching, and efiecting a permanent cure.

Woman's Mission.

The end of woman is to marry and
raise up family. She starts out in this
direction when she carries doll in child
hood. Your girl who leaves home and
goes out for herself does 30 because she
has failed to find the man she wants to
marry. BY and by she does find him.
and when she does she drops everything
and goes with him. She stops short IN
her music, her acting. her art, her litera-
ture or whatever it is. because, after all
her instinct tells her to marry, and she
follows her instinct instead of reason.
A man can marry and go ahead
in the particular pursuit or profession he
has chosen. but the woman stops and sub
jects everything to the one duty of wife,
hood. That is the reason women do not
succeed as we'll as men. They fall short.
Grant all this for the sake of argument.
Admit that it is the general mission of
women to marry and raise up family.
But | am now writing about the excep-
tions to all classes. all rules, all theories
and all PHILOSOPHERS. Most women do
marry young, and that is right. That is
as tar as most of them want to go. They
are fitted for this sort of life, and have no
desire or fitness for another.
But are you going to make one kind of
a girl to do this when it is strait jacket
and an abomination to her? In other
words is she to marry simply for the sake
of marrying, and '.settlee down" simply
for the sake of settling down? Why not
allow her 70 follow her natural bent as
well as the young MANI True she may,
as my objector says, find some man, while
herself following a successful career
whom she will love and whom she will
marry. thus cutting short work that
might otherwise have been rounded out
and made complete. True, women are
not as completely successful as men in the
more independent pursuits of life. But
the point | wish to make clear and en-
phatic is that society, and the woman, her.
self and the man she marries, and all d.
rectly or remotely concerned, are the better
for her having done even something for
herself, however little.
| repeat that the self reliant woman is a
civilizer. The busy world is improved
by her having been participation therein.
Her words are gentle and kind. and her
presence is restraint to the headlong
impetuosity of men. Even though she
may not remain long with us single, let
US be thankful that she has come at all. If
she falls in love AID marries, even at the
sacrifice of an independent career. her life
after all is not in vain. Her own views
have been broadened, her sympathies
have been deepened. her capacity for en-
.joyment made greater and her scope tor
usefulness widened. | say again and
again. let the ambitious girl see what she
can do for herself.-Cor. Won,an's Jour-
