In this bicycle the two riders ar

points the machine resembles this Oh

A taste for good literature is encour-
aged among the school children of De-
troit by the distribution among the
schools of approved books from the
public library. Fifty-two schools are
supplied in this way, and the circula-
ton for 1895 was over $4,000. The
books are changed five times during
the school year, and the only additional
expense is the slight one OF transporta-
ton. 1t seems TO be successful plan

After the victory over the British the
Beers made him vice president of their
republic, and communicating chief in all
military matters. In 1890 he visited
America and arranged for an exhibit

Beers as the George Washington of the
South African republic.

Emerson says, "a man is relieved and
gay when he has put his heart into his

confirmation of this, we have but to
look at the dreary and melancholy con-

earth and with all it's opportunities,
finds nothing to do.

must have health. Of course, because
without II she would lose the brightness
of her eyes, the fuliness of her cheeks
and her vivacity. Health brings all
these things but health means more
than most people think Of Real health
must mean that a woman is really a wo-
man. That she Is strong and perfect
in sexual way, as well as n every
other. That she is capable Of perfor-
ming perfectly the duties Of maternity
Upon her strength In this way depends
to large extent her general health, her
good looks and her attTactiveness. It is
easier for some women to retain health
and strength than it is for others. Some
seem able to do anything they like,
whenever they like, without serious
results. Still, there Is no reason why
women should not enjoy perfect health.
Those who do not, need only take the
proper precautions and the proper rem
edy to become perfectly well and strong.
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription will
cure any arrangement of the distinctly
feminine organism. There are some who
have neglected themselves so long that
a complete cure is next to impossible,
but even these will find comfort and
improved health in the use of the Fa-
vorite Prescription. IL has cured hun
dreds of women who have received no
relief whatever from years of treatment
with good physicians. 1t is absolutely
unique in the history of medicine Such
a remedy can be discovered only once.
Hundreds of things that every woman
ought to know, are contained in DR..

to the subject of coast defense: "Since
its original settlement by the Dutch this
city has four times suffered invasion and
occupation by forces dispatched by for

after the Dutch colonization an English
