-woman's suffering and wcman's
weakness. DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription puts a stop to it. It's
a remedy for all the delicate de-
engagements and disorders that make
her suffer, and a cure for all the dis
eases and disturbances that make
her weak. It's a legitimate medi-
cine, that corrects and cures; a
tonic that i~nvigorates and builds
up; a nervinc that soothes and
strengthens. For bearing down
pains, displacements, all the func-
tional irregularities peculiar to the
sex, it's a safe and certain remedy.
Other medicines claim to cure?
That's true. But they don't claim
to do this: if the Favorite Pre-
scription fails to give satisfaction,
in any case for which it's recon-
mended, the money paid for it is
refunded.
Judge for yourself which is likely
to be the better medicine.
And think whether something else
offered by the dealer is likely to be
"just as good"
You pay only for the good you get.
On these terms it's the cheapest.

annual meeting Of the United Norwegian
Lutheran church is in ses ION. TO. day,
after the usual devotional exercises, the
committee on credentials reported several
new congregations. and delegates were ad-
mitted to membership. A question of Pc
culiar interest is agitating the minds of
every one present. namely-whether the
assembly is legally organized or not. Prof:
O!tedahl and several others held
that the power to call the
assembly as an incorporated body is vested
in the hands of the board of trustees, in &C.
cordance with the articles of incorporate ns,
while others claim that it remains with the
president of the church. A plan to solve
the difficulty was submitted by the board
OF trustees. After a heated and protracted
discussion the proposal was rejected. A
committee OH election was elected by bal
lot, consisting Of Rev. R%oaldquam. Rev. J.
