His wife also used Dr. Greenes Ner-

advantage, and, like her husband, has
been cured aud now enjoys her old time

Mr.. Crouch has always been i'm active
man in town and city affairs. In old
town meeting days he was always on
hand to help with his eloquent oratory
the pressing needs Of the time. and since
Northampton has been a city he has
served for several years ir it's govern

the largest vote for alderman he ever
had. He is contractor, and during the
past few wears has built some of the fin
est houses in the city. Both Mr.. and
Mrs. Crouch give DR.. Greene the praise
of giving them medicine that will cure
and keep them well.
The word of this widcly-known city
government official. Alderman Crouch,
should have the most convincing weight
with the public, but when we have
added to this the fact that the North
ampton Daily Hampshire Gazette, a
newspaper of the highest standing,
vouches edtorially for the truth of every
word, and its editor states that he has
personally investigated all the facts of
the marvellous cure, there should be no
hesitation by the people to use this great
medical discovery, this wonderful curer

ger to be doubted, that this remedy cures
that it makes those who use it strong
and well-thdt it is the Surest and most
certain cure for disease known at the
present day.
1t is the very best Of all spring medi-
cines, and should be taken now by all
who are weak, nervous and run down, to
streng then the nerves and invigorate the

1t is not patent medicine, but the
prescription of the most successful liy-
ing specialist in curing nervous and
chronic diseases, DR.. Greene. of "a Tenn
pie Place, Boston, Mass. He has the
largest practice in the world, and this
grand medical discovery is the result of
his vast experience. The great reputa-
ton of DR.. Greene is guarantee that
this medicine will cure, and the fact that
lie can be consulted by anyone at aav
time free of charge. personally or by let
ter, gives absolute assurance of the bene-
fetal action of this wonderful medicine.

A Gentleman of France,

BY STANLEY ]. WEYMAN; cloth SLIPS.
"One of the best novels since Lorna
Doone.' 1t will be read and re-read for
the mere pleasure it gives. The subtle
charm of it is not in merely transporting
the nineteenth century reader to the six
teGnth, that he may see life as it was
then, but in transforming him into a
sixteenth century man, thinking is
thoughts and living its life in perfect
touch and sympathy. 1t carries the
reader out of his present life, giving him
totally different existence that rests
and refreshes Hmm. Y. World.
"a romance after the style of Dumas the
elder, and well worthy of being read by
those who can enjoy stirring adventures
told in romantic fashion. The great per-
sonages of the times, Henry Ill. of Va
lor's, Henry w., Rosny, Rambouillet,
Invernne, are brought in skilfully, and
the tragic and varied history of the time,
forms splendid figure in which to set
the picture of MANAGES love and courage.
The troublesome days are well described
and the interest is genuine and lasting,
for up to the very end the author man
ages effects which impel the reaGer to go
on with renewed curiosity"

The RaIstons.

1.-The Ralstons' is the latest book
from the hand of F. Marion Crawford.
AS one reads the story, there comes a
growing sympathy for the bright dar-
ing, but generally sensible girl who
will not be domineered by her mistaken
parents, for she is not a child, and
who cannot well consent to their
wishes. The narrative is confined to
wealthy New York life, and millions OF
money are thrown around like bean
bags, while Uncle Roberts wilr' is
contested with deadly earnestness. The
descriptions are always bright descrip-
tive; the conversation at times is piquant
aad always interesting. The stormy
scenes between father and daughter and
others are strong AID wei sustained.
There are in them biting sar-
casms, verbal ambuscades and truth
pointed trusts that touch the quick. The
strange iron-clad, hypocritical honesty
of Alexander Lauderdale, Jr., is not
more detestable, but less pitiable than
the exaggerated personal vanity and
hatred of b autv that develops unkindly
in the soul of Mrs. Lauderdale. The
whole is favored with LndJ somewhat
rare quality of highborn courage, min
gled with obstinate family characteris-
tics, that makes the clashing of strong
natures especially pyrotechnical, but
being on paper, enjoyable. There Is
humOr, pathos, grief and passion in
these two volumes, which the author
has endowed with living Interest,"

Nervura blood and nerve remedy, of Al.
derman Charles S. Crouch, one of North.

cure exactly as they occurred, giving
Hon Mr.. CrOuch's own words.
Following is the editorial in full:l
Learning that great cure had been
effected in Alderman Chas S. Crouch Of
Northampton, Mass. by DR.. Greene's
Nervura blood and nerve remedy, a re-
porter took occasion to call on MrCOuch
and talk with him about it, and among
the thousands of testimonials given to
this world-renOwned medicine, none will
be more widely read or give greater
weight than this one coming from so
noted man as Alderman Crouch.
Mr.. Crouch is one of the plain, old
fashioned kind OF men, OutspOken, and
always means just what he says. In con
versation with Mr.. Crouch, he said:
"LaSt spring did not feel in my usual
health; felt as tired IN the morning as
when retired; had NJ energy nor ambi-'
ton to go about days work: no appe-
tite with which to regain strength and
energy. In this condition worked
along from week to week. thinking that
after awhile matters would right them
selves and | would feel like myself again.
But to the contrary, grew worse.
knowing that DR.. Greene's Nervura
was not patent medicine, but a medi-
cine put up from a prescription diScov-
cred by the doctor in his private practice
| resolved to try it. The first bottle
helped me so much that purchased an
other one, and even a third bottle, when,
to my great joy, found myself as well
as ever was in my life; and further
more, have remained So" ..-
In further conversation he said:
"Dr. Greene's NerHura is great medi-
cine. There is no humbug about it! 1t
was made to cure, and it does cure. No
one need be afraid to use it,"
Day by day he praises this wonderful
medicine to his friends and neighbors, as
the one sure way to regain their health.

NY sufferings might have been stopped if
had only known of your CUTIcURA REMEDIES
eighteen years ago. 1 contracted the fever and
ague, and it effected my kidneys so badly that
had to have an operation, from which resulted
blood poison, and suffered untold agonies. To
make my sufferings more, my left leg below the
knee broke out in large blood boils, and COM
menced a scaly, itching irritation, SO that at
times was almost frantic, and would scratch
until the blood would trickle down my leg In
the summer these large boils would commence,
during which time would have three or four
which were so painful that at times was forced
to take to my bed. Every winter dry itching
sCaly mass would gather on my leg, which with
the boils, seemed to effect my whole system.
During all this time, a period of three to nine
months, 1 had doctor after doctor, but they gave
me only temporary relief. This last fall com
menced using your CUTICURA, CUTIcURA SOAP,
and CUTICURA REsoLVENT, and now the scales
have all gone, the itching all gone, have not
felt sick, and have worked all winter. would
