Few women realize the infiuene ex-
erted OF their bodily and mental we'll
being by the special organism of their
sex. 1t is hard for them to believe
that the little drain which goes on
from day to day is sufficient to sap
away the very life forces. Yet it is
so. The weakness, exhaustion, mel
ancholy; the periodical p%rostration
and sometimes almost torture has no
other cause, two-thirds of the time,
than the abnormal, unhealthy condi-
ton of the ~generative organs.
Strangely enough eve doctors often
fail to recognize the truth. For this
condition there is no other remedy in
the world 30 helpful and certain as

place at the Christian church onTues-
day evening, November 9, at eight
O'Clock, Rev. ]. s. Shouse officiating.
This announcement does not come
entirely as a surprise to the many
friends of the contracting parties, but
it is none the less good news. 1t
seems especially fitting that two who
have known each other intimately
from childhood should later be united
in the holy bonds of matrimony.
Both hold a high place in the esti-
nation of young and old alike. By
her sweetness of disposition, her cor
diality of manner, and her many
charming graces, Miss Potts has gained
hosts of friends to whom she is very
dear. DIR. Rodes in a few years o
practice has attained a place right al
the top of the medical profession Of
Mexico. He is besides a sterling mar
and q courteous gentleman.
