Let every enfeebled woman
know it! There's a medicine
that'll cure her, and the proofs
positive!
Here's the proof - if it
doesn't do you good within
reasonable time, report the
fact to its makers and get
your money back without
a word-but you won't do it !
The remedy is DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription and it
has proved itself the right
remedy in nearly every case
of female weakness.
1t is not a miracle. 1t won't
cure everything-but it has
done more to build-up tired,
enfeebled and broken down
women than any other medi-
cine known.
Where's the woman who's
not ready for it3 All that
we've to do is to get the
news to her. The medicine
will do the rest.
Wanted Women. First
to know it. Second to use
it. Third to be cured by it.
The one comes of the other.
The seat of sick headache
is not in the brain. Regulate
the stomach and you cure it.

little regulators.

GIANTS TO GRAPPLE
Iron League TO Tackle Knights
of Labor.
AN ULTTMATUM TO HOUSEWIVES.

Must Discontinue a Strike or Stand n
Lockoat That Will Involve Before the
End Is Reached $1,000 Men-Au the
Great Iron Concerns ut New York,
Brooklyn and Jersey City on One Side
and PowderIy's Men on the Other.
NEW YORK, June 22.-Between 300 and
300 housesmiths belonging to the knights
OF Labor were notified by their employers
last night that unless their organization
discontinued the strike against the Jack
son Architectural Iron works by this
morning they would be dischal ged. Be
tween 1900 and 5000 more received this
same notification when they reached their
shops this morning: Unless the leaders of
the order of the knights of Labor
comprehend the gravity of the situa-
tion and make other terms, sc, 900 men,
the employers say, will be idle within two
weeks
4 Great Combine of Employers.
After weeks of deliberation Remembers
of the Iron League, which includes the
owners of all the large iron works in New
York. Brooklyn, and Jersey City, with the
encouragement and promised support of
employers in all the other branches of the
building trade, have decided to stand by
the jackson Architectural Iron works. At
a meeting OF the executive committee of
the Iron League it was resolved that if the
strike was not declared off at once gen
eral lockout would be ordered
No Prospect for Settlement
The Knights of Labor practically con-
troll the building trades of this city. There
is very little likelihood of their discontinue
ing the strike against the Jackson Archi-
tectural Iron works. The men will prob
ably take up their tools and go home and
then await developments. The iron man
ufacturers say that they can get ten nom
union housesmiths for every union one in
their employ.
Very Serious Outlook.
If the building trades assembl les of the
knights of Labor take up this fight for
the locked out men, thousands upon thou
sands Of men will soon be idle, for the
members of the League will go ahead with
non-union men, and then every knight
employed on those jobs will strike. There
are nearly 10000 organized men in the
building trades, of which more than
three-fourths, it is said belong 10 the

Boies Men Get Cheer.
The BOies men were everywhere, how
ever, and when the dele, 'ation came in
there was cheer. Tammany raised am

the crowd wasn't in much of a cheering
mood. 1t was too hot to do anything
except sit still and fan. Coats came off,
and in some cases vests and collars. When
the storm passed away the canvas covers
were lifted and made matters more pleas

A Pleasant Episode.
A resolution offered by Congressman
Ben Gable, of Rock Island, Offering "the
condolences of the convention to James G.
Blaine in his present affection led to
one OF the pleasantest episodes of the con-

When the clerk proceeded with the reso.
tuition and the convention learned the

when Delegate SWEET, of Maine, arose and
thanked the convention in the name of his

feeling highly creditable to the delegates.
