Stick 10 Il!
Sometimes you may have to wait.
The troubles that have been years
in gathering can't always be cleared
away in q day. For all the diseases
and disorders peculiar to woman
hood, DR.. Pierce's Favorite Pre-
scription is the surest and speediest
remedy. You can depend upon that
but if your case is obstinate, give
it reasonable time.
It's an invigorating, restorative
tonic, a soothing and strengthen
ing nervine, and a positive specific
for female weaknesses and ailments.
All functional disturbances, painful
irregularities and arrangements are
corrected and cured by it. All unnat-
ural discharges, bearing-down sensa-
tions, weak back, accompanied with
faint spells and kindred symptoms,
are corrected. In every case for
which it's recommended, "Favorite
Prescription" is guaranteed to give
satisfaction, or the money is re-
funded. No other medicine for
women is sold on such terms. That
proves that nothing else offered by
the dealer can be "just as good"

MEETING TROUBLE.
How Men and Women Differ in this Re-
spect.

How Men and Women Differ in this Re-
spect.
Men and women meet the small trou-
bles of life very differently. In the
first place, a woman often lacks that
sense of proportion which is necessary
to distinguish the lesser from the great
err ills; to her all troubles are of the
greatest magnitude, and to be mourned
equally. The failure of new dress or
Of a dinner party are calamities over
which she will sometimes worry herself
into a fever. Most men would meet
similar troubles with shrug of the
shoulders and then speedily forget them.
Then, again, a woman does not for
get easily, and is given to brooding;
nor is she so swift to run away from
her troubles as a man is. Indeed, she
can not be easily induced to run away
from them at all; the contemplation of
them has a fatal fascination for her.
In any small misfortune which falls
equally upon husband and wife, in nine
cases out of ten where the man reso-
lutely refuses to remember it and hast
ems to turn his thoughts into some
other channel, the woman will seem to
take almost a perverse pleasure in re-
calling it to her mind and rejecting
upon its actual and possible conse-
quences. Much of this difference in
their demeanor is, of course, due to the
difference of their life. A man can
easily run out of doors and seek dis
traction, whereas a woman's lot is to
remain at home and think. Indeed, we
should say that very much was owing
to the greater opportunity that a wom-
an possesses of contemplating her
worries and brooding over them.
Yet it is hardly fair to assume that
because a woman appears to be more
affected by small worries, that there
fore she has more to bear. There are
| plenty of small worries outside those o.
the house, which last, we admit, fal
mostly to the woman's share-indeed
In the actual sharing of these little
woes, we should say that the man gen
orally comes off are worse, for whe1
the cook is impertinent, or a chimney
smokes, the master of the house is al
most always called in to lend his ale
and sympathy, whereas he can hardly
count upon much help or sympathy
from his wife when his own soul i
voxed by the shortcomings of his clerl
a the stupidity of his groom.-Specta

The democratic state convention did
its work well, yesterday. 1t was proba-
bly, the largest gathering of prominent
democrats ever seen in Connecticut, and
the greatest enthusiasm prevailed.
Representative men were selected to
represent the state at the national con-
vention.
A strong platform was adopted by the
convention. 1t meets every issue face
front and vigorously condemns the re-
publican party and its chief executive
as well as Morgan G. Buckley and the
republicans of the general assembly.
The Mckinley bill is pointed out as a
disastrous policy of broken pledges. 1t
has caused general stagnation of bust
ness, in the face of the unprecedented
crops of last year and other favorable
conditions. The platform calls fol
stable currency and denounces the un
limited coinage of silver.
1t condemns the actions of ode jure
and de facto" Governor Buckley and
demands that a constitutional conven.
/ ton be called to change the rotten
borough system of elections.
The platform appeals directly to the
people and deals in facts. 1t is not {
sentimental document, nor a padded
effusion of words. Every sentence is t.
the point.

It Is q Hugo Inland Island Surrounded by
Air.
The great stake plain of Texas,
known to Spaniards as the Llano
Estacado, has long been held a geolo-
gical curiosity, if not q mystery, says
the Milwaukee Journal. Prof. Hill has
recently made a thorough reconnois-
sance and gathered data which gives
the first intelligent scientific description
of it. If the reader will conceive an
island greatly elevated above the sur
rounding plains or desert region of
the interior, bordered, with slight ex-
ception, on all sides by steep precipices
resembling palisades, nearly surroun-
ded by rivers at the base, embracing
fifty thousand square miles of surface,
he will get a general idea Of it. 1t has
no streams, a few ponds, no trees OF
bushes, and is unbrolren by surface
channels, yet, such Is the character OF
the soil, 1t is well watered and densely
carpeted with q rich growth Of gramma
grapes. Indeed, its nearly level sur.
face is far moro fertile than the level
plains about 1t. Already stock has
been introduced, and although mar.
gined by precipices Of near one thou.
sand feet vertical height IL promises tc
become a great focus of cattle produc
ton.
The rainfall Of the region is ample
all Of which is absorbed, and none
runs OF. In many respects It differs
from au.other parts Of Texas, having
some resemblance to the so-called Bad
Lands of Dakota, and, like these lands
seems to be the bottom Of an ancient
lake. although its fossils are not stated
It Is the product Of erosion that has
carried away all the country about to 6
depth Of nearly one Thousand feet, leav
ing this great island Of grass to stand
as mark of earth's olden boundary
when the country was growing elevated
and oceans recNded. It Is not stated
but we infer a general altitude above
the sea of more than q mile. We have
thus an aerial island, as it were, nearly
the size of the state Of Wisconsin, ex
listing under conditions wholly unlike
the rest of the continent, which
emerged when the Rocky mountains
were In process of elevation, and Seems
to be a mark of the old level of thai
section of America In very remott
epoch. IL has long been puzzle Il

No Business with Views.

Congressman Castle, of Minnesota,
tells how during his first term in the
state senate as a member of the judi
ciary committee he had refused his ap-
prevail to most of the bills which came
before him while his own pet measures
went on nicely until final passage, with
no signs of opposition anywhere, but
on final passage his own yea stood
alone. his own uncle, who was also a
member, voting against them When
he demonstrated with "Uncle Ben" that
sage statesman said to him: "My boy,
when you have cut your eye teeth you
will have learned that you are not ex-
pected to have any views on other peo-
pies measures If you hope to get your
own through"

A good story is going the rounds of

to get him q good berth In New York
agency, says the Brooklyn Citizen. The
managing partner was much pleased
with the youths manliness, and, after
having given him full instructions as to
his duties, sent him to canvass in New
England.
''Of course" said the manager, 1--WE

It was not likely that the youth from

"Well, I'm all right in that respect, "
said the youth, lam not?"

said another, ''for, of course you'll get
a suit of clothes out of your first trip"
The youth accomplished his journey,
and on his return presented to his man
ager an itemized bill of expenses. The
manager glanced it over and said:
81 don't understand this last item:
One suit of clothes, thirty-fve dollars.
What does that mean2'
''Why, I understood was to put that
in the bill" was the reply.
'+Oh, dear, nor the manager said.

other items are all right, but that must

On the youths return from his second

BLACK BUCK HUNTING.

Queer Method by Which Natives of India
Capture the Graceful Animal.
The black buck of India is a very
graceful animal weighing between thir-
ty and fifty pounds. The hide of the
male when full grown is of inky black
ness on the back, while the belly is as
white as snow, the contrast being very
striking, says a writer in St. Nicholas.
The horns are black and spiral in shape
and in length measure about eighteen
inches, although they have been known
to reach twenty-six inches. The ami
mails are usually found in herds and are
difficult to approach on foot, as the
bucks toss their heads into the air from
time to time in a very graceful manner
and some of them are almost sure to
detect any attempt at stalking. They
are at times hunted on horseback, but
the usual method in many sections is to
use a conveyance very much like the
back of horse, only shorter, and made
of wood. This is on wheels, is drawn
by bulloclzs and is called a Jungle cart.
It is very close to the ground and from
both sides project fat pieces Of wood
upon which the feet rest. The inside is
hollow and holds ammunition and
luncheon. 1t is believed that they take
the queer little wooden arrangement on
wheels for a pillow, and consequently
are not much alarmed as it draws near
er them in ever-decreasing circles. The
bulloclxs move at the word of command
and are accompanied by a shikaree OF
native hunter. The bucks never seem
to fear the inhabitants, doubtless hav.
ing learned they are without guns and
therefore not to be dreaded.
