Every day engagements are entered into, and marriages are made between people who have no business to be married. Wo- men enter into the most serious obligation of life without the proper physical equip n1ent for it. When woman marries she tacitly makes the declaration that she means to become the mother of children. This declaration ought also to mean that she is physically able to perform what she under takes. The bearing of child is all too fre- quently an injustice to both mother and child. The woman who expects to bear ir1- tellectual and physically healthy children, should be herself in strong and vigorous health. The organs that make her woman should be free from any taint of disease or weakness. If they are not, the child will have a bare chance for health, and the mother may easily make herself weak, nervous, semi-invalid for the rest of her life. Female weakness of any kind-whether he reditary or acquired-may be cured by the right sort of treatment. Dr. Pierce's Favor ite Prescription is designed for the treat ment and cure of just this one class of dis eases and no other. It works in perfectly rational way directly on the organs affected. It cleanses them of all impurities allays any inflammation that may be present-and that generally is present in sickness re- stores the organs to their natural healthy, regular action = prepares them for the ac- complishment of woman's greatest work, and if taken during gestation, the time of parturition will be comparatively safe and painless.
 The Favorite Prescription Is not cure-sll and if the general system is rundown, Doctor Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery should be taken in connection with the Favorite Prescrip- tion." These two medicines together have the most wonderful influence on a woman's health. They will round out the hollows in her cheeks, bring reduess to bloodess lips, and brightness to lack-lustTe-eyes. At all drug stores.

A STATE REFORMAT0RY.

Hon ]. H. Amaker, one of the
members of the lower house, and a
prominent candidate for speaker,
expressed the sentiments of the in-
telligence of the state when he ut
tered the following:
"An appropriation by the legisla-
ture of an amount so small that
the people of the state would
scarcely feel it would establish a
State Reformatory and Industrial
School for Juvenile offenders that
would not only seperate this class
of criminals from the malign lnhu-
ences of the state prison associa-
tions, but would restrain them from
evil courses and teach them useful
trades, thus making them good cit
izens and useful members of society,
Such an Institution once establish
ed could easily be made almost self
sustaining. But whatever the cost,
it ought not to be weighed against
the possible future of the boys of
our state. ."-Ex.

A New Years Gift Heralded.

The measureless popularity of
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters has
been the growth of more than a
third of a century. AS in the past,
the coming new year will be ush-
cred in by the appearance of a
fresh almanac clearly setting forth
the nature, uses and operations of
this medicine of world wide fame.
1t is we'll worth perusal. Absolute
accuracy in the astronomical calcu-
lations and calendar will, as before,
be valuable characteristics, while
the reading matter will include sta
tistics, humor and general Informal
ton, accompanied by admirably ex-
ecuted Illustrations. The almanac
is issued from the publishing de-
partment of the Hostetter Com
pany at Pittsburg, and will be
printed on their presses in English,
German, French, Welsh, Norwe-
gian, Swedish, Holland, Bohemian
and Spanish. All druggists and
country dealers furnish it without
cost.

PAY UP AND FILL UP.

They have a novel way of doing
business over in Kansas. A Kansas
blacksmith finding most of his
neighbors indebted to him, and be-
ing pushed for money, published
the following card in a local paper
in the town of which he was a resi-
dent:
"As | am obliged to meet the
payment of a note, / am compelled
to call upon all of those who are in
debted to me to help me out as
they can. have decided to select
a day. l request your presence at
my shop to pay the amount herein
stated. You will receive a special
treat. Lunch and refreshments
will be served from ! p. m. to6p. m.
in my basement and very good
time is assured. Please present
this card when you call and show
the amount OF your account, which
is - dollars and - cents"
The saloons have found it profta-
BILE to offer free lunches, but we
fear that our blacksmith friend in
Kansas will not have the grand
rush he anticipates, as paying
up" is something novel to Kansas
man.

CLEAN CHRISTMAS FRUIT CAKE.

Customers do not get the small
est portion of their peck of dirt in
our Christmas Cake. 1t is as clean
as it is possible to make it, and it is
just as good as it is clean, only the
very best material being used in its
manufacture. All fruit is washed
by our own process, Particular
care is given to the baking. The
choicest butter is used in making
Christmas Cake, just as it is in our
pastry. Orders have already been
received from many of the best
families in Texarkana. Many of
them have made their own Christ
mas Cake heretofore but sample
has convinced them that baking, as
we do, hundreds of pounds we can
bake better cake than they can,
and sell it to them for less money
than they can possibly make it for.
1t sells at 25 cents per pound and is
iced with almond icing.

overcome by the Death Sen

Jasper, Fla, special: One OF
the most sensational scenes ever
witnessed in a courtroom occurred
here when Judge White sentenced
a man named Jones to death for
murder. Jones was put on trial
last Friday morning and q verdict
of guilty was returned Saturday
morning. The man seemed dazed
by the verdict and when called tc
stand up for sentence arose me-
chanically. Jones apparently die
not take any interest in tho pro
ceedings till near the close. Their
he leaned forward and listened In
tently. As the words ''hang by
the neck until dead" were uttered
by Judge White, Jones fell to th'
floor, apparently as dead as if I
bullet had entered his heart. Fol
a long time he was thought dead
but he was partially revived.

The goldbug Democrats don't

that majority of the people are
opposed to their policy, and their

be construed as an attempt to per-

knew much about the late war you
would know that the sound of the
bass drum was the sound by which
the well disciplined soldier kept
step with his comrades. When the
commander gavo the word march
the bass drum gave the ''time''
and no matter what fourishes and
variations the cornetcrs like your
self might put in, the soldier kept
his step-muslc, or no music. Ii
