There Is always danger ahead for such q

An unfailing cure for all weakness and

found in DR. Pierce's Favorite Prescription.
It acts directly and only on that one set of

with the troubles peculiar to her sex. It fits
her for wifehood and motherhood. Taken
during the period preceding motherhood it
does away with the usual discomforts of
that time. II makes the coming of baby

A SUDDEN DEATH.

John S. Bevan, kmiliarly known as
deaf Tom, was found dead last Sunday
morning in the little cabin adjoining the
Vincent hotel. The coroner was notified
who summoned DIR. Lee. 1t was evident
that apoplexy was the cause of the old
mans death. and it was deemed unnecessary
to hold an inquest. The body was turned
over to Undertaken Wilkins and was em-
bolmed and hsid several days awaiting in
structions from New York The old man was
absolutely penniless, but from letters found
in the cabin it was discovered that in 1891,
the date of the last letter, he had wife and
four grown children from whom he had
been separated for thirty voars. They were
at that time evidently well-to do. A tele-
gram was sent Mrs. Beran, but although
delivered, it was not answered, and today
the remains will be dccently inferred in the
Odd Fellows cemetery. Many citizons
will go out 10 help lay the old man to rest.
Respo nding TO 4 request made by the de-
ceased some time before his death, Judge
Burnett will speak briefly at the grave.
"Old Tom" had The reputation of being a
good mechanic. He was honest and de-
sired to harm no man. He was his worst
enemy. He was 4 slave to strong drink
and all his wages went 10 satisfy this appc-
