Women get plenty of sympathy after they
are dead. Tom Hood made very pathetic
picture in his Bridge of Signs" but the
probabilities are that the woman needed
sympathy great deal more before she died
than she did afterwards. Thousands of wo-
men are enduring much VERSE things thsn
death. The most distressing thing about it
all is that it is needless.
Uterine troubles are considered well-nigh
incurable. Women seem to think that they
must go on bearing these things forever. To
be sure, some of them Sake an effort to get
well by going to their physicians, but thou
sands are deferred from this, both because
they have seen that it was not likely to do
much good and because they knew that the
first thing the physician would insist upon
would be the examinations and local treat
ment so justly abhorrent to every modest
woman. These things are generally as I'M
necessary as they are distasteful. Every
woman can be made strong and healthy by
the use of DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton. 1t is a most marvellous medicine for
all forms of female weakness and disease.
1t is a wonderful purifier and cleanser. 1t
acts directly on one set of organs, and on no
other, but in doing this, it frequently cures
troubles that were seemingly of an entirely
different character and origin. A disorder
of the distinctly feminine organs IS likely to
cause all sorts of symptoms, and careless
doctors frequently doctor women for neural
gia, or dyspepsia, or insomnia, when the real
trouble is in the organs distinctly feminine.
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription will make
any woman we'll. Sometimes when disease
has run on so long that the entire system is
debilitated it is necessary to use in connec-
ton with the Prescription" DR.. Pierce S
Golden Medical Discovery, a general tonic,
blood purifier, and blood maker, without an
equal in the world. There is no case so
severe that these two great medicines will
not cure it. Thousands of women have
frequently testified to this fact

If it be desirable to make money ont
of cheap material for the sake Of having
it plentiful, why not make it of wood,
which is cheaper and more portable
than silver and which also is not con-
fined to few bloated silver mine OWL
ers for source of supply? Farmers and
common sense to the rescue! Let US no
longer have free silver, but free wood
dollars, for our cry. Thus could farmers
and manufacturers afford to pay great
wages to workingmen.
Why cannot our government place
any value it chooses upon metal or
wood? Has gold any value except what
we and the people Of other nations
choose to give it? Let England and other
nations make it what they choose. What
is that to us? Are we not a nation of
10000, 900 of people and quite sufficient
unto ourselves? Let other nations stag
ger under golden cross, but let us have
plenty of money and liberty.
