Sometimes the most careful women are
the most careless. Many woman bun
dies herself up, to keep out sickness
when she is neglecting the very worst
sickness that can come to a woman. She
allows a slight disorder 10 become worse,
to slowly sap her vitality. The little pain
and the other slight indications OF trouble
seem to her unimportant. She goes on,
with increasing suffering, until life itself
becomes a drag. Nervousness, sinking
spells,' digestive disturbances, and fifty
other complaints may arise from the de-
rangement of the organs distinctly femi-
nine. Over thirty years ago, the need for
a reliable remedy for so called "female
complaints was recognized by DR.. II. v.

Our Freeholders.

The regular December meeting Of the
Board of Freeholders took place 10 Flem-
iugton on Wednesday of last week. There
was full attendance of members and
much business of importance was trans
acted
The Finance report shows an actual
balance of $23.2 BLISS
Other reports of standing committees
were read and adopted. A general re-
vision of the standing appropriations was
found necessary and amounts were trans
posed as follows: $1,000 from the asy-
lum appropriation to the Freehold, RS SER
vices account; 1923 from asylum to
board Of prisoners $500 from coroner's
inquest to bridges; 5000 from miscel-
laueous to bridges; 5000 from supplies
to bridges; 500 from transportation of
prisoners to bridges, and 500 frcm couu-
ty canvassers to county buildings.
1t will be noticed that one half of the
fiscal year has passed and there is con-
siderably less than one third of the entire
appropriation of 500, 900 now standing to
the credit of the county, which does not
include bills to the amount of $1,000 or.
dered paid this month.
There was much discussion over the
following motion Moved that the
Board pay all bills contracted prior TO
the meeting of Nov. Is, 1896, and bills
included in the estimate given by men,
bers at the last meeting, which motion
was carried. 1t was plainly seen at the
meeting before this that something must
be done to check the outgo, particularly In
the matter of bridge building, and it was
then ordered by the Board that the mem.
bers give in an estimate OF the amount
each thought he would need to complete
outstanding bridge work contracts and
thus bring each member to limit If pos
sible. This Is a timely move ana although
it met with considerable opposition was
put in force to the letter.
The Finance Committee was authorized
to draw note for So, 900 to meet bills
| audited. On motion the meeting of the
various auditing committees, which has
heretofore been held on Tuesday before
the regular meeting of the Board, was
| abolished.
A motion that all bridge work through
out the county, except what is absolutely
necessary and even then such work to be
brought before the Board, was carried
after considerable discussion.

The Great TOBACCO War.

Many OF our readers know of the war
existing between the manufacturers OF
plug chewing tobacco, but few, perhaps,
are familiar with the cause.
For years some manufacturers have
been making enormous profits by giving
consumers small piece Of plug for ten
cents. Recently very large manufac-
turer, seeing that the time had come for
better things, has placed new brand
called Battle AK on the market, which
gives the consumer very large piece OF
most excellent quality for the same price.
This has raised great storm among those
who are hurt by it, but it gives joy to
those who use the goods. In Battle AK
they get greater quantity for their mon
ey, while the quality is equal to the finest
Of other brands. This has naturally had
the effect of greatly decreasing the bust
ness Of those who have held to the old
way, and it has materially curtailed their
enormous profits. On the other hand
Battle AK now taxes the resources oil
three large factories, which, by running
night and day, are still unable to make
the goods fast enough to satisfy the en-
thusiastic demand.
The people want good thing and the
most of ii that they can get for the price.
The manufacturers who do the best by
them will get their trade. Their rivals
naturally do not like it. They raise q
mighty howl, but the AK will cut them
