A MOST GRAPHIC STORY.
It is Taken Direct from Real Life.
HER EXPERIENCE BOTH ABROAD
AND IN AMERICA.

The unwritten romances Of life are more wonder
full and far mere interesting than the most vivid
works of fiction The one we are about to relate
occurred in real life, and is both interesting and
Instructive.
Mrs. Jennie Ray, formerly lived in Manchester,
y. II. Her home pleasant, her surround
inSs comfortable. In the year 1880 she VISITED
England, and while in that country began to ex-
pcrence strange sensations. At first she attrib-
uted them to the change of climate, but they con-
tinued and increased, until finally, like many
another woman she became utterly discouraged.
1t was while in this condition that Mrs. Ray
returned to America and her home. Thousands
of women who read this story can appreciate the
condition in which Mrs Ray then was and sym
patfze with her sufferings. Two prominent ply
soiGns called and endeavored to do all in
their power for her relief In spite, however. of
their skill Mrs. Ray grew weaker and more de-
pressed, while the agony she endured seemed to
increase. 1t Mt this time that noted ply
stefan who called declared Mrs Ray was
suffering from cancer said there help and
told her friends she could not live than
week at the farthcst.
And here comes the interesting part Of the story
which we will endeavor to tell in Mrs. Ray 8
own words. She said:
Unknown to all these physicians I had been
using preparation of which 1 had heard much
didn't tell the physicians because feared they
would ridicule me, and perhaps order its discon-
tiErance. During all the while that the ply
sicians were attending the preparation was
steadily and faithfully doing it's work in its
own way, and had faith in its power. At last
the doctor said there was of his coming.
for he could do me good. l had suffered SO
mrch that ! quite willing to die. but it
seems that | was nearer relief than knew. One
week from the day the doctor last called false
growth. as large coffee cup. and which looked
as though it had been very large, left me- l sent
for doctor, and be declared it was ihruiI
trnor, but said H.. had known TO come
away of itself before. ] Immediately began to
gain health and strength. and ] unhcSitatDSly to
clare that my Iescue from death was due solely 10
the marvellous effects of Warmers Safe Cure. which
was the remedy tool, unknown to the ply sicians
and which certainly rescued from the grave.
1t is my firm belief that many ladies' who are
said t. die of cancer of the womb are cases like
mine, and If they could he induced to use War
her $ Safe Cule. they. like me. might he saved
The above graphic account is perfectly true
III every respect 1t is said that truth is
stranger than felton,. and when the thousands Of
sLhtrlnC. helpless women who are upon the road
winch physicians say Lords only to death cnnsi,lc.
IN" story as above given. there is for lo g
ana Joy. even although they may be now in the
u'F'hs "i dependency and misery. To such ladies'
the above truthful account is willingly given.

Tn. seed is the Vital Thing.

Planting must he begun right, else no amount of cultivation or fertilizer can prevent the crop being a failure. The first step is the selection of the seed. Do not take any risks here. Get seeds that you can depend upon = seeds that a,e fresh, that have rrpu- tation behind them. The most reli able seeds grown in this country are Ferry's Seeds. Wherever seeds are sown the name of D. M. Ferry & Co.,, Detroit, Mich., is a guarantee of quail ity and freshness. The greatest care and strictest caution are exercised in the growing. selection. packing and dist ribution of their seeds. Not only must they be fresh. but they must b+ true to name.
 On a par with the quality of the seeds IS Fe,ry's Seed Annual for 1897, the most comprehensive and valuable book of the kind ever printed. Every planter, large and small, should get. read and digest this book before plant. ing single seed. It is free to all who address the firm as above.
