Every banker and custodian OF money
in New England as we'll as in Provi-
dence, knows George Il. Foster q Co..
the safe dealers, whose factory, that of
the Macneale & Urban Company, is the
largest and hest equipped in the world.
Hundreds of millions, the bulk of the
wealth of the country, is kept in their
used by scores of banks and the biggest
trust companies and mercantile institu-
tions.
No bank is built or rebuilt without con-
sulting with this house, which, during
the last 80 years. with its predecessors,
Morris d Ireland, holds the champion re-
cord for the great fires of Boston, Chi
cago, Lynn, Haverhill, Eastport and
Camden.
This is what Nh. George +. Foster says:
"Our business brings US in daily con-
tact with men who work with their
heads rather than with their hands; that
is, with bankers, financiers and business
men, who are apt TO exercise their brains
too much and their bodies too little.
They are men whose sleep is disturbed
and whose nerves ere overtasked by the
great responsibilities that rest upon them.
Among this class we have heard more en-
thusiastic praise of Puritania than OF any
medical discovery that has ever been
made. Among the personal friends of our
house and our own employees who have
used II, the verdict is unanimous that it
begins at the right spot and brings the
right results; that Is to say II gives DOW
or TO the digestive machinery and by this
natural method gives new strength and
nerve force. IL its just the remedy for
our climate of severe changes, for by its
wonderful Influence over the stomach II
fortifies the whole system.'

One of the old timers in Providence is
Mr.. Lucien Carpenter, who lives at 426
knight street. His statement is OF
especial interest because he has suffered
Tor many years from his stomach troubles
that cause very great distress and also
Indigestion.
A friend of his who had himself expert
enced a great benefit from the use OF
Puritana, recommended it to him. MIR.
Carpenter says that IL has given him gen.
uine relief, ana he can recommend II
heartily. lie can thoroughly endorse it
especially for all stomach ailments.
The wholesale and retail druggists OF
Providence have been selling Puritana so
extensively for some time past that they
are in position TO pass judgment on it's
real value. Careful Investigation has been
made to see whether advertisements OF this
remarkable remedy were substantiated by
facts. The most searching inquiries fell
TO reveal a single case where Puritana has
not produced good results. Furthermore,
the druggists report that the people, al
ways reauy to find fault, have been unable
to lind a fault with Puritana. Here are
few statements that explain themselves:
From the old-esta blishet house OF
Banding IL Banding comes the following:
"Puritana IL now sold as standard
medicine in Providence and the vicinity.

has grown steadily, ana our constantly
increasing sales show that the remedy Is

CHEROKEE BILLS FATE.

dispatches from Washington settled the
fate of Cherokee Bill, the noted outlaw
of the fast receding borders. The Presi-
dents refusal to interfere removes Bill's
last possible chance. and he VIII hang
on st. Patrick's day. On Nov. IS, 1894,
Cherokee Bill and Verdigris Kid. another
citizen of the territory, sacked the town
of Lenapah, Indian Territory. Cherokee
Bill, during his raid, killed Ernest
Melton. Bill was arrested and locked up
at Fort Smith, and IN due time was
convicted and sentenced to death. While
he was confined there he killed ALI Tay-
lor. For this he was also tired and sem
fenced to death. His lawyer, William M.
Cravens, appealed both cases to the
United States Supreme Court. On Dec.
20 last the court affirmed the first case
and 1t is for the crime committed In that
year that Bill is to be hanged.

Mr.. j. p. Bezeley lives at sc Westfield
street, Providence, land he has been in the
business Of painter and paperer for many
years. He says regarding DR.. Crosby's
prize formula, Puritana, that it is a medi-
cine which he can conscientiously recon-
mend. His statement is as follows:
"From its use in my own family, / am
convinced that Puritana is thoroughly

tion troubles, and can be used in perfect
safety and in the certainty OF receiving
good results. J. =. BEZELEY,

THE OLDEST SPORT.

Hunting and Fishing Were Means of Live-
lihOOd to Primitive Man.
Somebody has asked which is the
oldest sport and started a discussion
that has already put the antiquity of
games beyond the middle ages. Hunt
ing and fighting were primitive mans
chief occupations, says the New York
Journal.
These, as civilization developed. were
gradually converted from being means
of livelihood into pastimes. But it is
impossible to tell exactly when the
change took place, for it is not even yet
complete. and what is sport to the
squire and amateur is necessary work
to the gamekeeper and professional
soldier.
Nimrod, Noah's greah-grandson. was
mighty hunter before the Lord" and
as he was mighty one in the earth"
he probably hunted for pleasure. This
is the oldest record of q sport.
The stag and its kind. which make
the greatest demand on the skill and
endurance Of the hunter. would prob
ably be the first animal pursued for
pleasure. To hunt the lion was kingly
sport from the earliest times.
The Egyptian monuments show that
all kinds of hunting. as well as fowling,
were followed for pleasure. The Olym-
pic games were probably the oldest
athletic sports and their origin is lost
in antiquity. They are said 10 celebrate
Jupiter's defeat of the Titans.

Insanity is the horrible dream of
the night perpetually present during
the day. Insanity in women is Oft
ener due to disease of the organs dis
tinctly feminine than to any other cause.
The insane asylums of the country are
full of women whose carelessness of their
health in this particular line has SEN
fenced them to life that is less desirable
than death. The weakness or shock that
causes such insanity is frequently the re-
suit of childbirth. At the time when a
woman's greatest usefulness should begin
she is taken away from her duties, and
from those she loves, and for months, or
years, or forever is shut away from them
by the bolts and bars of a hospital. Such
things are absolutely unnecessary. Dr..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription will pre-
pare women for the trying time of par
turition so that there will be no danger
and comparatively little pain. 1t is the
only medicine in the world that will ac-
complish this purpose. 1t is the only
medicine of its kind devised by regu-
larly graduated, experienced and sklllful
specialist in the treatment of the diseases
of women. It will cure any weakness
or disease of the feminine organs. It
strengthens and purihes them, relieving
them of Inflammation, soothing all pain,
promoting regularity, and putting stop
to facilitating drains.
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets aid the cure Of ali
sorts of diseases by gently stimulating and invg-
Grating the liver, by toning up the stomach and
by restoring to the entire digestive tract regu-
lar steady, natural healthy action. Don't let an
interruptions druggist delude you into believing
that ANYTHING else Is Just as good" He makes
more money On the Just as good"

They Thought the Pretty Girl Who Bought
Paper All Right.
A young woman stood at the corner
of Halsted street and Archer avenue
waiting for downtown car. She had
a refined, sweet face, her brown hair
was parted over a smooth forehead and
a pair of wonderfully expressive and
beautiful blue eyes. Her dress was ele-
giant, but modest, and seeing her in
that locality one instantly thought of
sweet charity, says the Chicago Chron-
icle.
Two ragged little newsboys came up
to the corner and gazed at her in
frank admiration. Their look was re-
turned with one of kind interest. and
the girl bought a paper from each of
them. Just then her car came. and
with a smile she left the corner.
Amt she a beauty?" asked one of
the boys, while the other sang in a
clear. pretty voice: she may firt
with another, but I'm sure she loves
me-"
A middle-aged motherly-looking
woman, who had watched the affair,
asked: DO you mean me?" as she
bought a paper, she could not afford
two.
''Oh, no." answered the singer, ''the
lady with the pretty eyes"
"Now, I'm disappointed" said the
motherly woman.
WELL" called both boys, as they went
on, you're all right. too"

THE PRINCE OF NAPLES.

sesses so weak and puny n constitution
that several times during the last two
years his life has hung in the balance.
His bride, on the other hand, is tall,
towering over her husband by a foot
and half, well built. decidedly pleasing
of face, vivacious and lively in DISPOSE
ton. Since reaching mans estate the
prince has sought for and been refused
the hand of nearly every manageable
princess in Europe; while, on the other
hand. the princess has been compelled
by her parents and the influence of the
Russian court to put away from her the
attentions of many fascinating and
handsome courtiers who have gone
a-wooing in her direction. The wedding
is a barter of beauty for cash. The
prince is as wealthy as he is ugly; the
princess as poor as she is handsome.
Fer father, the harlequin ruler of
Montenegro. is a pauper, dependent
upon the bounty of the present car,
whose mother undertook the raising
and education of the princess. There
was a time when it was thought that Il
match would be made between Princess
Helene and the car, and, in fact, it is
generally understood that they once
plighted their troth in secret; but this
was before the emperor had seen
Princess Alix of Hesse, granddaughter
of Queen Victoria. and for whom, so
the story runs. he Tilted the fair daugh-
ter of Montenegro. However. he has
done the right thing by his former
sweetheart by giving her dowery of
nearly S1.OOO,OOO and wedding present
of diamond ornament purchased in
France at cost of 100000.
There is, of course, political aspect
TO the wedding, inasmuch as it brings
about resumption of the friendly re-
latjons existing in olden times between
Italy and Montenegro. Now that this
principality has furnished a future
queen to Italy, the Italians expect to re-
gain the connection and influence in the
principally which were broken off
three centuries ago.
