The Largest Bell i'm France.

The largest bell in France is
about to be hung in the beautiful
Church of the Sacred Heart, which
is just being completed, on the
steep hill of Montmartre, to the
north of Paris. This bell, which is
the gift of the faithful in the Depart
ment of Savoy, weighs about 5000
pounds. 1t is ten feet high, with a
diameter of about ten feet at the
base. Two men could stand inside
of it easily. While by no means
the largest bell in world, this big
fellow is considerably larger than
any other bell in France. The
largest bell in the Cathedral of Notre
Dame weighs less than 10000
pounds, while that in the famous
Cathedral Of Rheims weighs hardly
more than $4,000 pounds.
All these bells sink into insignifi.
canoe, however, when compared
with the great bell at Moscow, which
weighs about 100000 pounds. Mex
in weight are the bells of Protskey:
100000 pounds; of Pekin, 1850 0
pounds; of Nankin, $4,000 pounds
of Lisbon, 45, 5000 pounds, while tn,
great bell at st. Peters in Rome
| weighs 40, 900 pounds.

A golden cross is raised by this small

And in the nam of CASTLE and Leor

But let us look at this great land

Four centuries after these three ships

And see the mighty stars and stripe:

And floating out to greet the morning

May this great land ride on in state

May all her rulers wise and just mer

May nations do her honor and obey
Her mandates well through vas1

womanhood, every young girl needs
the wisest care. Troubles beginning
then may make her whole life mis-
cradle.
But the troubles that are to be
feared have a positive remedy. Dr.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription builds
up and strengthens the system, and
regulates and promotes every proper
function. It's a generous, support
ing tonic, and a quieting, soothing
nervine-a legitimate medicine, not
a beverage, free from alcohol and
injurious drugs. 1t corrects and
cures, safely and surely, all those
delicate arrangements, weaknesses,
and diseases peculiar to the sex.
A remedy that does cure IS one
that can be guaranteed. That's
what the proprietors of "Favorite
Prescription think. If it doesn't
give satisfaction, in every case for
which it's recommended, they'll re-
fund the money. No other medicine
for women is sold on such terms.
Decide for yourself whether some
thing else sold by the dealer, is
likely to be "just as good fol
you to buy.
