1t mu t indeed be great and good med
icine which can call out such strong words
in it's praise as this recommendation OF this
honored statesman, for all to use DR..
Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy
to be cured. But it is fact that doctors,
statesmen. scholars, preachers. druggists
and the people everywhere unite with one
voice in pronouncing this grand medicine
the greatest curer of disease ever known
The weak, the feeble, the nervous, the
rundown and debilitated, the sufferers
from poor blood rheumatism, dyspepsia,
kidney and liver seases, all are restored
to health and strength by its marvellous
curative powers.
1t is not patent medicine, but the pre-
scription of the most successful living spec
ialist in curing nervous and chronic dis
eases. DR.. Greene of "a Temple Place,
Boston, Mass. He has the largest practice
in the world, and this grand medical dis
covery is the result of his vast experience.

A wonderful Invention.

Much is claimed for the invention of two
Washington young men, which has been
called the phantoscope, and which will be
exhibited for the first time at the Atlanta
exposition. The device combines the prin-
ciples of the kaleidoscope with those of the
stereopticon, and the result is machine
which will throw life size pictures on a
screen and impart to them the motions of
living beings. The whole concern is only
obout the size of parlor music box, and
the inventors propose to make one so small
that it can be put in silk hat. The ma
chine is quite simple in operation. As in
the kaleidoscope the pictures to be repro
duced are taken on a continuous strip of
sensitive film at the rate of 20 to 80 per sec
ond. The film is only about an inch wide
and is wound off one spool in the machine
and upon another, and can be almost in
stantly reversed and run back. The length
of any scene reproduced depends only on
the length. of the film used, and this can be
increased almost indefinitely, so that the
whole act of theatrical performance could
be taken on a single film.

The Queen of Corea Murdered.

Fresh trouble has broken out in Corea,
and it is rumored that in a revolutionary
uprising at Seoul the queen has been as
sassinated by emissaries of her father-in-
law, the head of the reactionary element in
the Hermit kingdom. When Corea was
thrown open to American commerce in
1882, Ta-Won-Kun, the kings father, led a
revolt, during which the kings consort and
the heir apparent were killed. The insur-
rection was suppressed and the king remar-
ried. His father still remained hostile, and
on several occasions renewed his opposi-
ton. The Corean queen is reported to
have been a woman of great executive abil-
ity, and sincerely devoted to the welfare of
her subjects.

Hon. T. S. McGnnis of Jericho, Vt, the
war horse of the Democratic party, is Yer

and ever commands the attention and re-
spect of the people. He ran at the last
election as the peoples candidate for gov
ernor. Such is the high standing of the
man who, out of his own experience, ad-
vises you to use DR.. Greenes Nervura
blood and nerve remedy to be cured.
Eve have used DR.. Greene's Nervura
blood and nerve remedy in our family" he
says, land think highly of it. We could
plainly see that it had the desired effect
upon Mrs. McGinnis, and firmly believe
that, could we have persuaded her to use
the medicine, it would have cured her en-
tirely from her extremely nervous con-
dition, but she was greatly benefited as it
was.
1--WE have used it in our family with
good results, and have commended it to
our friends, and know of many who have
used DIR. Greenes Nervura blood and nerve
remedy with the best results. 1 do not
hesitate to recommend the medicine to all.
1t is a wonderful medicine "

TRUSTING WOMEN.
THEIR CONFIDENCE OFTEN LEADS
TO SUFFERING.
An Ohio WOman's Experience, as Here
Related, is Interesting to Every
American Woman.
ESPECIAL TO OUR LADY READERs.1

1t is very sad fact that the more a
woman trusts to the skill of her physician
in treating her female complaints, the
longer she is apt to suffer.
Lydia E. Pinkham fully realized this
fact when she commenced that exhaus-
tive study that has enabled the women of
the world to help themselves. She dis.
covered the source of female complaints,
and produced the Vegetable Compound,
which is their absolute cure.
When such testimony as the following
Is given, the woman who thinks should
act quickly, and no longer permit herself
to trust to incompetent doctors. The
Vegetable Compound is sold by all drug
gists, and every woman should have it.
