An unhealthy woman is rarely, if ever, beau-
tiful. The peculiar diseases to which so many
of the sex are subject are prolific causes of
pale, sallow faces, blotched with unsightly
pimples, dull, lustreless eyes and emaciated
forms. Women so afflicted. can be perma-
nently cured by using DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription; and with the restoration of
health comes that beauty which, combined
with good qualities of head and heart, makes
women angels Of loveliness.

cheerfulness an Aid Cure.

There is faith cure not often con-
sidered. but which is in constant ope-
ration and quito as effective in its
workings as that practiced by pro.
fessional "healers" or .metaphysi.
clans" says the indianapolis Jour-
nal. II is tho cure brought or as
sisted by tho patients faith in his
doctor. Every physician knows the
desirability Of inspiring this feeling,
and the best method OF establishing
this confidence in persons under his
treatment are made matters of profess
sional study. 1t is only in part a ques.
tion Of medical skill. He may bc
recognized as mau OF great knowl-
edge and ability. and may lack that
ono essential characteristic that makes
him welcome in every household. The
possession Of this quality is largely a
matter Of temperament. and its useful.
ness is hardly recognized by tho fortu-
nate practitioner. though he may con.
scientiously cultivate it through
knowledge Of the fact that cheerful.
ness is better than gloom in all the re-
lations OF life. Itis the gospel OF cheer-
fulness that this man unconsciously
teaches-not tho aggressive gayety
aud unsympathetic jocularity that is
an ohense to an invalid and his friends.
but brightness of spirit that makes
GLAD all who meet him.

ANOTHER OMNIBUS BILL.
Congressman Springer Seeks to
Prevent the Admission ofWyoming
and Idaho.

and Idaho.
WAsHINGToN, Special Telegram,
1t is supposed TO be the intention of SPRING
cr of Illinois to ward off the admission of
Idaho and Wyoming unless New Mexico
and Arizona are taken in as we'll, and for
that reason he introduced another omnibus
bill today. Springer had previously
promised to support Delegates Dubois and
Carey in their efforts for admission, and
had not made the admission of the other
territories condition precedent. 1t is
known that the Democrats have determined
to make fight against the admission of
Idaho, and New Mexico and Arizona are
to be used as prctext The senate COM
mittcc on territories held meeting to-day
for the purpose of taking final action OH
the bill for the admission of Idaho and
Wyoming. The committee anticipated max
ing favorable report on these bills to-day,
but President Bishop Bulge, the head of the
Mormon church in Idaho, appeared and
asked that he be given hearing in opposi-
ton to the Idaho constitution; which has a
stringent anti-Mormon clause. Accordingly
the committee postponed final considcra-
ton ofthe bills until Monday next, when
Bishop Bulge will appear by counsel, and
present an argument against tho Idaho bill.
Delegate Dubois of Idaho said to-day:
"Thc position taken by Bishop Bulge only
strengthens us. 1t answers very cffcctually
the objection to the admission of Idaoh
which has been put forward, that the con-
stitution was not strong enough to crush
out Mormonism. Bishop Bulge is con-
fcsscd four-ply polygannist, and has long
been under indictment. His action to-day
will only delay the report Of the bill for a
week, l think" The house committee on
territories has not ycttaken up the Idaho
and Wyoming bills Delegate Dubois
thinks the committee will be divided OH
party lines when the report is finally made.

Very Funy, Indeed.

Two very humorous boys are in
sjail at Burlington, la. They had q
n tame crane and a funny idea. The
{ idea was to catch another smaller
boy and hold him while they made
the crane peck at him. They did
this, and the crane pccked out one of
the small boys eyes. The Judge sent
the boys to Jail for fifteen and thirty
days. When they get out the victim
of their humor ought to organize O
posse and capture them and tie them
up and have q little fun with the
crane himself. This would appeal
strongly to their moral nature.-Chi-

"rhe word precious cannot be ap-

their marketable value is relatively
small at all times, and is still further
influenced by the DEGREES of fashion.
For some years past we have had
but few calls for moonstones, but
about twelve months ago they were
restored to popular favor, and will
probably continue to be much used
for some time to come. The stones
come from India, are easilyprocured,

OF them are so embellishcd, the man

The moonstone is seldom worn
alone by fashionable people, having
usually an accompanying setting oi
diamonds or other precious stones.
In response to o question the dealer
added: "The largest moonstone l
have ever seen was one of oblong
shape about TX inches in length and
x of an inch in width. This was set
to represent a butterfly with partial

stones, and was intended to be worn
