The reason why q woman is afraid of a
mouse is profound mystery-indeed, it has
never been very clearly proven that she is.
But some women are constantly in such a
nervous, irritable condition that the slightest
thing annoys and startles them. The cause of
this unfortunate state of affairs is usually
some functional arrangement; some Distress
ing or painful irregularity, some derange-
ment or peculiar weakness incident to her
sex; or, it may be due to Inflammation, ul-
ceration or displacement, of some of the
pelvic viscera, or to other organic LESSONS
peculiar to her sex. From whichever cause
it may arise, DIR. Pierce's Favorite Preserip-
ton is q positive remedy, so certain in its
curative results that its manufacturers sell
it, through druggists, under a guarantee of
its giving satisfaction in every case, or
money paid for it will be promptly re-
funded. As a soothing and strengthening

On Tuesday morning, the Massillon ac-
commodation on the c., L. and W., met
with quite an accident as it was nearing
the water tank at the entrance of the
Bridgeport yards. The train was running
at the rate of about twenty miles an hour,
when the rear coach jumped the track
and crashed into some coal cars standing
on. a side track. The coach was well fill
ed with passengers, and turned
partly over before it stopped, but all es
capped without injury more than a lively
shaking up. This is all the more remark
able when one end of the coach was
mashed in and the side torn off. The
cause was a bad piece of track.
