c. B. GLovER's HOUSE STRUCK BY LIGHT
 MING.

During the thunder shower of last Sunday night, the startling lightning bolt that came at about 20 minutes or 10 o'clock, played the most peculiar pranks down at the house of Charles B. Glover on the Boulevard. It first struck the tall pine tree standing in front of the house, and when about half way down, scattered, part of the bolt contin- uing on down the tree, making slight furrow in the bark, and the rest of 1t making for MT Glover's house. It en- tered the house near the cornice tearing off some of the boards and setting fire to articles stored in the attic in three differ ent places. Both Mrs Glover and Mrs Garfield, her daughter, had articles that they valued, stored in the attic, which took fire and were destroyed. In fact 1t was a narrow escape for the house, for had it not been promptly discovered the fire would have destroyed it. The in- mates of the dwelling were dazed by the shock, but none of them were seriously hurt, and at first they thought the light ming had struck the barn as the horses made such a time. On investigation they found it was in the attic and with the assistance of MT Gays people, what flames there were were extinguished without serious damage. In the second story the only damage was in Mrs Can | fields parlor, where the wall paper was torn Off in several places and some of the picture frames blackened. The two dogs who lay :n their kennels near the tree felt the shock, and one of them not being able to move for over an hour. Mir Glover's family can count themselves fortunate to have so luckily escaped. John Gay was sitting on his front porch during the shower and when the bolt came was knocked out of the chair in which he was sitting, but besides being very much dazed was not seriously hurt.

RE1 LIHI EA Ef CISE fresh air and proper food, help to keep a woman in good condition. It's insufficient for some, weakened or borne down as they are by the ailments and irregularities peculiar to their sex.
 They're easily helped, though; there's a remedy in Dr. Pierce's Fa- vorite Prescription-that will build up and cure every enfeebled woman. It's the prescription of physician !; has been tested in thousands of cases, and never found wanting.
 The only risk that's taken is that of the manufacturers who promise to refund the money if no benefit is experienced.
 This Prescription" reaches the origin of the trouble. Dizziness, fainting spells, and nervous disorders, such as sleeplessness, chorea or St. Vitus's dance, depend upon the ir- regularities and displacements of the special structures, the Prescription " cures by regulating and correcting these functions and organic changes.
