The turning point
in woman's life brings peculiar
weaknesses and ailments. DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription
brings relief and cure. 1t is a
powerful, invigorating, restorative
tonic and nervine. 1t imparts
strength to the whole system in
general, and to the uterine organs
and appendages in particular.
Rundown" debilitated and deli
cate women need it. It's a legiti-
mate medicine purely vegetable,
perfectly harmless. It's guaranteed
to give satisfaction in every case, or
money refunded. Nothing else does
as much. You only pay for the
good you get. Can you ask more?
AS a regulator and promoter of
functional action, at that critical
period of change from girlhood to
womanhood, "Favorite Prescrip-
ton" is a perfectly safe remedial
agent, and can produce on ly good
results. 1t is equally efficacious and
valuable in its effects when taken
for those disorders and derange-
ments incident to that later and
most critical period, known as "The
Change of Life"

clusion in accepting the utterances OF

Listen to what Tennessee Represent
ative, one grown bald-headed in the

s.The life Of Congressman is
dogs life. He is pack borse. lie IS
cursed by his foes and ridden TO death
by his friends. He does the work of
ten ordinary men. He is buried in
committees, over-run with correspond
ence, beset by place-seekers, and his
life made a daily torment. He is not
his own master. Life at the capitol

"But, Col. T-,"-sh, l mustn't
give his name, for he is already can
diIate for re-elecfion-'.but isn't there
glory in itr"
Tho statesman rehectively ran his
fingers through his bald hair, and re-
sponded lugubriously:
81 know humanity's a queen jumble,
and we never find things to suit US. We
want to climb as high as possible, but
when we get there the attitudes are not
as pure and invigorating as we expect
ed to find them. | can turn my eyes
to the United States Senate and think
Now, if | were only there L would
find the path smoother But when
one gets there he is met by perpleXitic'
and worriInents. Believe me, one
who has tried both, when l say that
private life affords less worry, less re-
sponsibility, and more true enjoyment
than this highly-strained public life,
with its garish footlights and mimic
stage trappings."
The Conl ressman quoted above has
had his ambition crowned, but the
crown rests heavily on his bald dome
of thought. And yet he may find
much to console him. He has risen 10
the position of demi-god in the esti'
nation of the people of his district.
They look upon him with mingled
feelings of admiration and envy.
Some of them covet his seat and viii
endeavor to occupy it in future Con
crosses; and thus it goes, ''each pur.
suing his favorite phantom"

Mrs. Catherine Gladstone, wife of

half a century ago. At her marriage
she brought her husband Hawarden
castle, over which she has reigned a
firm but quiet queen. She ia tho
mother, as he- illustrious husband puts
il, of a quartet OF sons and a quartet
OF daughters, and is described "a a
woman of great moral and mental
strength whom n stranger would wor-
ship, but never presume to love save
at distance. Her hair is gray but
abundant, and resembles satin in tex
ture, so carefully is it brushed over
her ears and under n snowy little cap
of fine lace and black velvet loops that
fsl over her neck in the back. She
dresses always in black, and her velvet
basques are made very high in the
collar and finished with a lace ruche
that reaches quite to the pointed, slight
ly dimpled chin. The only sort of
trimming she wears is a set of lace
wrist rutfles with bands of the delicate
web laid on the sleeve of the dress,
covering il from frill to elbow. Her
face is oval in form and still full in
outline, the splendid height of fore
head covering moro than third of the

she is surrounded by her favorite au-
