No one knows these facts better than
women themselves, and the inside
history of feminine lives would reveal a
story of tired bodies, unstrung and ex-
citable nerves, wea,ied limbs, aching
heads and backs, with that exhausted,
dragged out feeling which makes their
lives miserable.
The we'll known Eta E. Haven, of
New Boston, Conn, writing upon this
subject says:
ssDr. Greene's Nervura blood and
nerve remedy is wonderful remedy for
nervous prostration, and those terrible
tired, weak feelings that make life a
burden, almost too great to bear. feel
that cannot say enough in its praise for
what it has done for me. 1t gives one
the most restful sleep, and in fact does
all and more than all it claims to do. |
wish every poor, tired woman on the
face of the earth could be induced to try
it for three days; they would then I'M
derstand it's value, and life would not
seem SO wearisome and undesirable.
tits a fact that the great nerve invig-
GRANT and female restorative is DR..
Greene's Nervura blood and nerve rem
edy. No remedy in the world is so sure
to bring back the bloom and color to the
wan and faded cheeks, the brilliancy to
the hollow and haggard eyes, the light
ness and elasticity to the weak and
weary step, the strength and vitality to
the unstrung, shattered and worn out
nerves. 1t is the greatest of all uterine
tonics and regulators, and perfectly and
completely cures all female weakness
and disease.
If our readers are troubled in this way
we should advise them by all means to
use this remarkable remedy. We know
it to be purely vegetable and harmless
and it is within everybody's reach as all
druggists sell it for 81. 1t is the dis
covery and prescription of DR.. Greene,
of 81 Temple Place, Boston, Mass, the
eminent specialist in the treatment OF
nervous and chronic diseases, and the
doctor can be consulted free, personally
or by letter, which is a guarantee of the
great value of the remedy.

THE OYSTER SUPPER.
1t is Said To Be Preliminary to Politi-
cal Battle in Ward 2.


1t has been loudly whispered for some
time that the dis agreement as to parlia-
mentary law is not the only point of diff
ference between President MCGOWAN of
the Common Council and Mr.. John B.
Kehoe of the same body. Both live in
Ward 2, and both are ambitious. 1t has
been assumed that the senior statesman
from that ward, Alderman Daniel Gal
lagher would soon retire to his habita-
ton, leaving his political shoes upon the
sidewalk. Both MCGOWAN and Kehoe
are ambitious to get in the shoes afore-
said; and throughout this year the Coun-
Gil proceedings have been enlivened by
their sparrings for position.
Meanwhile there is an awful feeling of
uncertainty lest Mr.. Gallagher may wish
to wear the shoes wear longer

Some Inside History in Feminine Lives

Women are great sufferers from nerv-
BUSINESS, weakness, nervous prostratloh
and debility. Thousands of girls droop
and languish in the close, confined at
mosphere of shops, factories or offlces,
and hundreds of thousands wear out
their nerve force and powers in house
hold cares, family bereayements and re-
sponsibilities and work which never
ends.
Here lies the great strain upon the
nervous systems of women. Here is the
cause why SO mnny women complain OF
being weak, nervous, tired and ex-
hauSted.
They have little or no rest; their life
is one continual round of work, duties
here. duties there, duties without num-
ber What wonder that such women go
to bed at night fatigued, and wake tired
and unrefreshed in the morning! What
wonder that they become worn out, SO to
speak, in nerve and vital power! What
wonder that they have great weakness,
exhaustion, pains in back and limbs. to-
gether with the distressing female COM
plants which are always caused by loss
of vital strength and yigor! OF how
many thousands Of women is the above
a true and exact transcript OF daily life?
They have worn out and exhaused their
nerve force and physical power. They
must work, but it follows as surely as
the day follows the night that they must
receive from some source renewal OF
nerve force and physical energies, or the
human machine will soon cease to run at

CITY GOVERNMENT.
A Clean Sweep in the Ogdensburg Direc-
tory-Other Matters Before the Board of
Mayor and Aldermen.

There was special meeting OF the
Board of Mayor and Aldermen yesterday
at p. M, the principal business being
the choice of nine names to be voted for
by the city's stock at the annual meeting
of the Portland & Ogdensburg railroad
this morning. There has been great
desire on the part of many to get onto
this board, and the matter was consid-
cred of enough importance to be settled
in a caucus of the Democratic members
of the city government. The result OF
the caucus deliberations was very nearly
a clean sweep of the city's directors,
only Charles H. Amsden, who is the
New Hampshire member, and Samuel
J. Anderson, who is Democrat, being
retained. The Republicans who were
dropped were Weston F. lIilliken, j. F..
Hawkes., George w. True, is. R. Small,
C. F. Libby, Francis Fessenden and t.
P. Shaw, The late H. N. Jose was also
a member of the board. The names
which will be proposed and elected to
the board at today's meeting are: Darius
Fl. Ingraham, S. J. Anderson, Charles H
Amsden of N. H., John w. Deering,
John Z. Dewitt, Philip FL. Brown, E. B.
Winslow, William H. Green and Oscar
r. Wish.
The position is almost entirely honora-
ny, as the road is leased to the Maine
Central for long period.
Miscellaneous.
Smith, Tibbetts & Co.'S powder license
was renewed.
The board voted to petition the Pro-
bate Court for the appointment of a
