pitable and none ever crossed his lintels
without receiving largely of the good
cheer and generous bounty so literally
dispensed. He was man of more than
ordinary intelligence, well informed on the
topics of the day, and conversation with
him was always profitable. He never in
dulged in small talk, and gossip was never
permitted in his home circle. He was
known as man of strong character and
principles, and in church, business
and social life his word was always recog-
nized as his bond. He was an ardent and |
advocate of Prohibition and |
never failed to defend the cause of temper.

careful and successful business man.
His funeral took place on Wednesday, i
and the high esteem i'll which he was held |
by the entire community was evidenced |
by the large concourse nf people in attend

a worthy and just tribute to his memory,
and in his death the church has lost

Nine-tenths of the sickness of women
comes from some arrangement of or
cams distinctly feminine. Nine-tenths
of this sickness can be cured and avoid
ed by the use of DR.. Pierces FavoTite
Prescription. There is nothing mirac-
ulous about the ''Fa.vorite Prescription
nothing supernatural. 1t is the re-
suit of rational thought and study ap-
piled to medicine. It has been prescrib-
ed by DR.. Pierce, chief consulting physi
cian to the Invalids' hotel and Surgical
Institute, Buffalo, n. Y, for over 80
years. It has made thousands of wo-
men healthy and happy, and has
brought joy to thousands of homes. In
'sfemale weakness" it acts directly and
strongly in healing and strengthening
the parts that are most severely tried
It clears out impurities and promotes
regularity at all times. To prospect
i've mothers it is a priceless boon as, If
taken during pregnancy. it so prepares
the system for delivery as to make la
Dor almost painless besides shortening
the period of confinement.
