into the busiest day and busiest week of
your life and find golden opportunities,
which, gathered, might at least make
whole sheaf for the Lords garner. It is
the stray opportunities and the stray
privileges which, taken up and bound to-

you with Astounding joy.

strong enough to come forth and toll in

Woman's Modesty.

Many women are prevented by feelings of
delicacy from consulting a physician in
those disorders arising from functional de-
rangement of her peculiarly delicate
organism, and the most serious results
are often caused by this neglect. TO such
persons Dr. Pierce's FavOrite Prescription
is an especial boon, as it offers sure and
safe cure for all those distressing disorders
to which women are peculiarly subject,
while it saves a modest girl or woman from
the embarrassment of a personal cOnsulta-
ton with physician. "Favorite Prescrlp-
ton is the only medicine for womans pc
culiar weaknesses and ailments. sold by
druggists, under positive guarantee from

The United States supreme court has

society is mania for medical and sur

house, the dissecting room and the sur

tacle of the hour and the twin diversion
with social small talk. This is due, no
doubt, to the diseased realism in the
world of fiction where lola and his imi-

The Rev. w. Norton, at hunting din
ner in Hertforshire, said that the clergy
lately had rather abandoned the hunt

week, and if the late bishop of Winches-
ter had not hesitated to attend the hunt
ing field he would not have been killed
by galloping on the highway. 1t was
not only the school for good riding. but
the school for good manners.

Sluggish Liver,
ETC, ETC, ETC,

Unlike many kinds of cathartic
- medicines, do not make you feel
worse before you feel better. Their OPP
GRAFTON is gentle, but thorough, and
unattended with disagreeable effects,
such as nausea, gripping pains, etc.
Seigel's Operating Pills are the best
family physic that has ever been discov-
cred. They cleanse the bowels from all
irritating substances, and leave them in
a healthy condition.
The best remedy extant for the bane
of our ives-constipatio and sluggish
liver.
These Pills prevent fevers and all
kinds of sickness, by removing all pois-
onous matter from the bowels. They
operate briskly, yet mildly, without any
pain.
If you take a severe cold, and are
threatened with fever, with pains in
the head, back, and limbs, one or two
doses of Se1gels Operating Pills will
break up the cold and prevent the fever.
A coated tongue, with brackish
taste, is caused by foul matter in the
stomach. A few doses of Seigel's
Operating Pills will cleanse the stom-
ach, remove the bad taste, and restore
the appetite, and with it bring good
health.
Oftentimes disease, or partially de-
cayed food, causes sickness, nausea and
diarrhea. If the bowels are cleansed
from this impurity with a dose of
Seige1s Operating Pills, these disa-
greeable effects will vanish, and good
health will result.
Seigels Operating Pills prevent
ill-efects from excess in eating or drink
ing. A good dose at bedtime renders a
person fit for business in the morning.
These Pills, being sugar-coated, are
pleasant to take. The disagreeable taste
common to most pills is obviated.

From the report of the japanese
Railway Bureau for the past year 1t
appears that railway constructors In
in that country have to meet On un.
usual number Of difficulties, owing to
the physical geography Of Japan. One
line oil 2O5 miles In length involves
the construction of ten tunnels, 10000
feet long,and the bridging OF IL rivers.
One of the latter, so II is asserted, has
a velocity in time of flood OF 81 feet
per second, and in another the brick
piers have to be sunk to a depth Of 80
feet. A range Of mountains is crossed
at height OF f408 feet Part OF an
other line asccnds to height of 3144
feet, and during FIVE months OF the
year work is rendered impossible by
the snow,
