NERVOUS WOMEN.
What Causes Their Weakness,
and How 1t May Be Remedied.
Some Sound and Valuable Advice 20
Women.

women are great sufferers from nervousness,
weakness, nervous prostration, and exhaustion.
lhousand OF women droop and languish under
nousehoid cares, family bereavement RESPONSE
piiities and work which never ends. Here lies
uie great strain upon the nervous system of
women; here is the cause why so large proper
uoh OF our women complain of being weak,
nervous, tired and exhausted. They have little or
no rest; their life is continual round of work.
duties here. duties there, duties without number.
What wonder such women go to bed at night
fatigued. and wake tired and unrefreshed in the
morning! What wonder that they become worn

suffer from female weakness and debility, irregu.
PARTIES, leucorrhea, or other diseases peculiar
to women. Yet they keep about their work long
after they realize that they ought to call them.
selves sick and remain in bed and so they con-
tinue to ''work upon their nerves" day after day.
OF how many thousand of women is the above
true and exact picture OF daily life. They have
worn out and exhausted their nerve force and
power, and 1t follows as surely as the day follows
the night, that they must receive from some
source a renewal of the nerve force and power, or
pr,stratlon or death will follow

sation of divine favor to overworked humanity
there is medicine which exactly meets these
requirements, and which restores lost nerve force

system, strengthens and invigorates the weak

The first action in the Legislature looking
to the removal Of the Capital was taken yes
terday. In the Senate Senator Libby of
Cumberland offered an order for special
committee to consider the subject, Senator
Heath of Kennebec moved that the matter
90 to the committee on public buildings, and
subsequently moved it be laid on the table.
Mr.. Heath's motion was defeated by a vote
OF 10 to 10, and Mr.. Libby's motion adopted.
The friends of removal have won in this
preliminary skirmish, and have reason to
feel greatly encouraged. OF course the con.
test has Just begun, but it has begun In a
way very gratifying to Portland. Senator
Libby deserves the thanks of the citizens Of
Portland for his activity and earnestness in
this matter both at the Capital and in Port
land, and is to be congratulated ON his
success In the Senate yesterday.

1t appears to be practically settled that
special session Of the new House will be
called soon after President-elect Harrison's
Inauguration. There is scarcely posi-
bility that the present Congress will take
any action regarding the tariff or the sur
plus, SO that these pressing questions will
remain unsettled when it adjourns. 1t is
doubtful also IL 1t win be able to consider
and pass all the appropriation bills, and
therefore an extra session may be absolutely
necessary for the support Of the government.
Political considerations also point to a
special session. The House is extremely
close, and 1t is highly important that there
be little delay In organizing 1t.

The Halifax Chronicle thinks the imposi-
tion OF duty Of two cents pound on fresh
fish by our government. will prove very
serious matter to the Canadian fishermen.
But the Chronicle thinks the Canadians
have no right to complain. because the Do
minion government has imposed duty on
fresh fish, and the United States government
will therefore only be retaliating In kind and
with perfect fairness.

The legislature was showered with petit

were petitions in favor of woman suffrage
and remonstrances against It. And there
were petitions for legislation to check
bribery and corruption at the polls. The

Differences are reported between the

lead to the latter's resignation. The Presi-

Boulanger's election to the Chamber of
Deputies from the department of the Seine
still remains the topic Of general discussion
In Europe. That his victory bodies no good
to the Republic seems to be the universal
opinion, but in just what form the disaster
which it is generally agreed is impending
Will come there is wide difference of opinion.
Whether he himself aims at grasping the
supreme power, or whether he is simply the
tool OF the royalists to deliver the Republic
into their hands is matter Of speculation.

Fryeburg.


The second lecture, in the Fryeburg lee
ture course was delivered, ON Thursday eve
ming by Rev. VIM. w. Livingston Of Jaffrey.
N. H., the father of the present pastor of
the Congregational church. His subject
was "Ten Years Among the Turks" and
was on account of some things he had seen
in that land. while he was engaged in mission
work.

he said, expected tn spend my life there. /

as was able, one with them. This land is

poets and other scholars testify, indeed,
stands without rival My first sight of the
city OF Constantine. as we sailed up the
famous harbor, one August day, shall ever
remember. was truly gorgeous. We
saw the palaces and mosques with their
domes and minerets; the shipping of all
nations and other strange craft; and as we
drew nearer, these echoed and re-echoed
over the water the sweet chimes Of the many
bells calling the faithful to prayer. Wherever
one lmay go in Turkey he is on classic
ground; Here lie many buried cities un-
touched by the hand of time.
ana the ruins found here are finer than all
others excepting those of the Alhambra.
The country Is volcanic and has severe eli

level OF the sea. The people are nominaly
divided into Christians and Mohamedans.
They are Slow. goodnatured, polite, and all
take great delight in smoking. Although
they are very devout in their religion, yet

They are not an independent people, but are

way possible by excessive taxation. All in

heavily taxed. No true statement of the
population can be given, because a census of
the habitations rather than of the people is
taken. The. roads were then mere bride
paths, and all agricultural implements are OF
the rudest description. The houses are low

contain-all dwell 10 cities and towns and

dress of the country were referred to. The
lecturer repeated the Lords prayer in the

Cotton Report.

WASHINGTON, July 10.-The June
report of the statistician of the De-
partment of Agriculture shows JIM
provement in the condition of cotton
during the past month. Early planted
is as we'll advanced as that which
was planted in May. and that which
had not terminated before the season
of the drought is late and small.
There was frost nearly throughout
the cotton belt on the last of
May and first of June which
prevented termination, already long
delayed, and arrested the growth
of plants. There is general complaint
of the effects of dry and cool season
continuing through May and into
June, in delaying termination and
growth and favoring prevalence of
lice. West of the Mississippi, espec-
tally in Texas, the season is considered
a wet one and June rains, continu-
ing till the day of the report, began
at an earlier date than in
the Atlantic States. Their effect has
been to improve the stand which was
very defective and advance the
growth of the plant. Prevalence of
rains left the fields somewhat grassy
on the first of July, condition which
a few days of sunshine since may
have remedied, except on plantations
having too large an area for a number
of plows to.be available. Crops were
generally kept clean during the Pc
riod of drought. The per centages of
condition by states are as follows:
Virginia So, North Carolina So, South
Carolina 81, Georgia Sc, Florida 80,
Alabama 81, Mississippi 81, Louisiana
90, Texas 80, Arkansas So, Tennessee
50. General average $40. Caterpillers
and boil worm have appeared in
Texas and Louisiana and some parts
of Mississippi. The setting of lights
and catching of the miller that pro-
duces the cotton worm has been gem
eral, promising the mitigation of flu
ture depredations.

Man Killed.

Justice McAllister held all inquest
at 10 o'clock this morning on the body
of man found alongside the railway
track about one-half mile east of the
Salado bridge, on the G. H. q s. A.
railway. From injuries showing on
head and body, it is evident the man
was run over by some passing train
train last might or at least struck by
one. BY a registered letter in his
pocket addressed to A. Francis, Fla
tonia, Texas, it is guessed that was
his name. He appeared to be an En-
glishman and was recognized by VIM.
Carr as a man who had been out of
work recently but had secured a job
with the section hands on this road.
The inquest is not yet concluded.

The Flood in New York State.

UTICA, n. Y, July 10.-The tracks

great damage to property is done, not

water for a distance of fifteen miles.
No definite information has been OBJ
