ATS LOVE THAT TAKES THE
WORLD GO ROUND"

Some people think money is greater
power than love. Oh What mistake
See how the great money kings are con-
trolled by the little boy Cupid See how
the great soldiers and men of power are
twisted around his little fingers!
A woman's most precious possession is
the capacity for awakening pure and noble
love. More potent than wit or intellect is
the womanly capacity for happy wifehood
and motherhood.
A woman who is weak or diseased in the
special organism of her sex is deprived of
the power and prestige which naturally be-
long to her. Such troubles are not a ne
cessity. Perfect health and strength of the
feminine organism is insured by proper
care and the aids afforded by enlightened
medical science. DR.. Pierce's Favorite Pre-
scription cures all weaknesses and diseases
of woman's special organism.
For nearly 30 years DIR. Pierce has been
chief consulting physician to the Invalids'
Hotel and Surgical Institute, of Buffalo,
NJ. Y. No other physician has had a more
extensive practice or greater success in the
treatment of women's, diseases No other
such perfect and scientific remedy for these
ailments has ever been devised. 1t has re-
stored health, strength and womanly power
to tens of thousands of women.
Women who would understand their own
powers and possibilities should read Doctor
Pierce's thousand page illustrated book,

had been vague: that he went to the ceme-

A very pretty morning room. with the wood
work finished in white enamel and the
walls covered with an old rose cartridge
paper, has two wide doors on one side OF
the room, which are made to appear much
wider than they really are by narrow
cases for books, each about IS inches
wide, built each side the doorways. and
so close to them that the doors of the
cases appear to be part of the framework
of the doorway. Tire doors of these cases
are divided into small panes of glass set
in white frames, much as common window
frames would be, except that the glass is
of better quality. The same arrangement
for books is carried over the tops of the
doors, says the New York Post. where
the fronts of the cases have also small

The social lines between the commissioned
officer and the enlisted man have always
been strictly dra wn, and this must possibly
be so in the interest Of discipline.
But it has also been dccreed that young
army officer who marries the daughter of
an orderly sergeant cannot. expect to hold
his own socially with his brother officers,
and neither can his wife be received on the
same footing of equality with the wives
OF other Officers who have not fallen in love
with 4 nOn-commissioned officers child.
This is not a regulation OF the War De-
partment, nor is there any law which can
prevent an officer OF the army marrying
any one he wishes, but the officers, and
more particularly their wives. have decreed
that any army man who goes to the ranks
for his wife must thereafter forfeit his
claim to social recognition from his assO-
ciates at an army station.
The case which has established this pre-.
cedent is that Of 4 young man who grad
