Tile hand Of time
deals lightly with a woman in
perfect health. But all func-
tional arrangements and dis
orders peculiar to women
leave their mark. You needn't
have them. DIR. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription comes to
your rescue as no other medi-
cine can. 1t cures them. For
periodical pains, prolapsus and
other displacements, bearing
down sensations, and all "fe-
male complaints and weak
nesses, it is a positive remedy.
1t is powerful, restorative
tonic and nervine, imparting
strength to the whole system
in general, and to the uterine
organs and appendages in par
ticular. 1t keeps years from
your face and fgure-but adds
years to your life. It's guar
anteed to give satisfaction in
every case. If it doesn't,
your money is returned.

He Poses a Member of Union Reei-
ment with Great Success.
LOUISVILLE, July 2S.-The Courier-Jour-
nal recently printed the story that James
W. Lucas, who had been granted a pension
10y the United States government as Union
veteran, had never been in the Federal
army, but on the contrary had served
through the war in the Confederate cav
airy, and worse, had killed a Federal sol
der in cold blood, who had hidden in the
house of a farmer. The testimony as TO
these statements is now published, and
seems TO prove the case fully.
Possible Explanation.
The only evidence to show that Lucas
had the smallest claim on the government
is the statement OF a. W. Pollard. an eX.
Union soldier and pensioner, that Lucas.
just before the close of the war, was cap.
tured by the Federals and joined the
Union army. In long letter to Waiter
son Commissioner Raum defends the ac-
ton of the pension office, and cites the
records and afidavits upon which the pen.
sion was granted.

do their favorite more harm than good,
as the congressman who are not in favor
of Cleveland's nomination would be the
more likely to oppose Mills if they
