Mothers

recovering from the illness attending
childbirth, or who suffer from the
effects Of disorders, arrangements and
displscements of the womanly organs,
will find relief and a permanent cure
in DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription.
Taken during pregnancy, the "Pre-
scription" makes childbirth easy, by
preparing the system for parturition,
thus assisting nature and shortening
'flabor." The painful ordeal of child
birth Is robbed of its terrors and made
almost painless, and the dangers
thereof greatly lessened to both
mother and child. The period of con-
finemert is also greatly shortened, the
mother strengthened and built up, and
an abundant secretion of nourishment
for the child promoted. If the mar
ried woman be delicate, rundown, or
overworked, she worries her husband
as well as herself. This Is the proper
time to build up her strength and cure
those weaknesses, or ailments, which
r the cause of her trouble. DIR.
Pierce'g Favorite Prescription dispels
aches and pains, melancholy and
nervougness, brings refreshing sleep
and makes q new woman of her.

1T SCARED THEM.
Governor Stephens and Private Sec
rotary Moore Presented With an
Audrain County Egg
Tester.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, February L.
CONSERVATION reigned for a few min
utes ING overnorStephens' officeSatur-
day. In fact, there might have been
a panic, but for the fact that AL Nor
row, during his peregrinations in the
rural districts, had seen all sorts of
queer things.
In the Governors morning mail
came a box.
1t was opened without thought of
possible danger, but when the cover
ing had been removed a most fearful
and wonderful continuance was ex-
posed.
Visions of Internal machines and
other death dealing instruments arose
in the minds of Gov. Stephens and
Private Secretary Moore.
"Come away from it, Paul. cried
the Governor, but Col. Moore was
too far away by that time to hear him.
With great bounds and leaps he
reached the Office in which he keeps
DIS SWORD.
Morrow, who was industriously
grinding away at his music box, heard
the commotion and emerged from his
den at the moment Moore reappeared
with his sword.
"What's the matter, Paul?" asked
AL.
"Don't you see that Internal ma
chine?" replied Paul.
~"Infernal machine nothing. That's
an e~gg-tester," said Morrow.
The Governor and his Secretary
looked cheap for a moment and then
realizing the righteousness of the sit
uation broke out into q hearty laugh.
The "machhne'' was a present from
D. W. Hughes, of vandalia, Mo-, and
is one of his new patent ~egg-testers.

fear that he is inflaming passions which
will lead to further troubles. Those

Colonel Rhodes seems to have assumed
