Suffering Mothers, Read !

When my first child was born I had
great trouble with my breast. 1t would
break out with an itching humor that
was almost more than 1 could stand.
It was something lika the thrash and II
seemed to poison my NIX Whereyor
tue mix would touch ne or my child it
would cause the humor to break out, ana
would make the ch;ld's mouth so sore
that was driven tn wcan the child ard
raise it on the bottle. l had the trouble
to return with five Of nv children, ami
come lear losing then all. I was sor-
rowful in my heart not to nurse my ba-
bies, but | could not do it. and was
driven to wean them. My fourth and
NTH Child died from it as the disease
settled on the bowels. We had all the
oeheht of medical treatment that the
country afforded, and spent hundreds of
uoliars trying to get well, and it almost
broke me up. Before the birth of nv
sixth child | met Mrs. Joe Person at
Smltnheld, and from what she told me of
her remedy, l concluded to try it. I
bought some of the Remedy and wash
from Mr.. Hood, and before / had used
the six bottles l was perfectly cured.
AT the birth of my next child was well
and have since had two children. but
have never had any more trouble with
my breast, and my children were born
well and healthy, and was able to nurse
them.
One of my little girls was poisoned
with poison oak, and nothing gave her
any relief until l used Mrs. Joe Per-
sons Remedy and Wash, and one-half
bottle of the Remedy and one package
of the Wash cured her. 1 don't know
how to express myself about that med
icine. l have never seen anything like
it, and do not think there is any other
medicine known that will do what it
does. l wouldn't take $500 for what it
did for me, and if l could have known
of it years ago I would have been better
off in the world than l am to-day.

Free Cure For Men.
A MICHIGAN MAN OFFERS TO
SEND HIS DISCOVERY FREE.
laims to be Benefactor TO Weakened
Mankind.

There is always more or ress suspicion
ttached to anything that is offered free
Int sometimes a man so overtOws with
generosity that he cannot rest until his
iscoyery is known to the world, in order
that his fellow men may profit by what
he has discovered. 1t is upon this princi-
lie that a resident Of Kalamazoo, Mich,
desires to send free to mankind pre-
scription which will cure them OF any
orm of nervous debility; relieves them Of
II the doubt and uncertainty which such
men are peculiarly liable to and restores
the organs to natural size and vigor. AS
it costs nothing to try the experiment 1t
Ould seem that any man, suffering with
the nervous troubles that usually attack
men who never stopped to realize what
might be the final result, ought to be
eeply interested in remedy which will
restore them to health, strength and
igor, without which they continue to live
an existence Of untold misery. AS the
remedy in question was the result OF
aany years. research as to what combina-
ton would be peculiarly effective in re-
toring to men the strength they need, it
would seem that all men suffering with
any form of nervous weakness ought to
write for such remedy at once. A re-
.uest to Fl. c. Odds, Box 1922, Kalama-
Mich, stating that you are not send
ng for the prescription out of idle Curl
osity, but that you wish to make use Of
the medicine by giving it a trial, will be
answered promptly and without evidence
to where information came from.
The prescription is sent free and al
hough some may wonder how Mr.. Odds
can afforu to give away his discovery,
there is no doubt about the offer being
onuine. Cut g out and send to Mr..
dds that he may know how you came to
write him.

Dear Sir: Several years ago l was
asked by the Ladies' Confederate Mem
orial Association of one of the Southern
States to contribute $3.50, toward the
erection in StonewaH cemetery, Win
chester, Va, of monument in memory
Of their heroic dead, which it gave me
pleasure to do. At that time l made a
standing offer of similar contribution
to any other Southern State in the cree
ton Of a monument to it's dead. / notice
in the press that the ladiessof North Car
DINA are going to place in September, "a
memorial at the head of each grave Of the
dead of that State in the same cemetery.
What has become of the effort to erect
a monumental shaft to the Confederate
dead of North Carolina?
j am prepared at any time to contrib
ute $3.50 for that purpose and hope that
the day is not far distant when / will
be asked for it.

DANGER IN SODA.
serl.us Results Sometimes Follow It's
Excessive Use

Common soda is all right in its place and
indie onsable in the kitchen land for cooking
and washing purposes) but it was never in
tended for a medicine, and people who use 1t
as such will some day regret it.
We refer to the common use Of soda to re-
lieve heartburn or sour stomach, habit
which thousands of people practice almost
daily and one which is fraught with danger ;
moreover the soda only gives temporary re-
lief and in the end the stomach trouble gets
worse and worse.
The soda acts as mechanicsl irritant to
the walls Of the stomach and bowels and
cases are on record where it accumulated in
the intestnes, cousing death by Inflammation
or peritouitis
Dr. Harlandson recommends as the safest
and surest cure for sour stomach (acid dys-
pepsia) an excellent preparation sold by
druggists under the name of Stuarts Dys-
pepsia Tablets. These tablets are large 20
grains lozenges very pleasant to taste and
contain the natural acids, peptones and di-
| gestive elements essential to good digestion
and when taken after meals they digest the
food perfectly and promptly before it has
time to ferment, sour and poison the blood
and nervous system.
DR.. Wuerth states that he invariably uses
Stuarts Dyspepsia Tablets in all cases Of
stomach arrangements and finds them Ger.
tain cure not only for stomach, but by
promptly digesting the food they create q
healthy appetite, increase flesh and strength
en- the action of the heart and liver They
are not a cathartic, but intended only fol

found reliable in any stomach trouble except

THE NEW YORES CRUISE
The Flagship Leaves Boston Har-
Dor Under Sealed Orders,

Tho Vessel started In Furious Gale,
and None on Board Knew whlthoe
She was Bound Untn We'll outside
of Boston Light.
Boston, June 1.-THE United States
cruiser New York, the flagship of the
North Atlantic squadron, with Rear
Admiral Montgomery Sicard on board,
steamed out of the harbor at o'clock
yesterday afternoon. not a soul on board
knowing to what port she is bound, for
It was only when the big white cruiser
was well outside of Boston light, with
her pilot over the side. that the sealed
orders from Washington were opened
and her destination ascertained. IL Is
generally believed, however. that her
twin screws win not stop until she is
somewhere in the immediate neighbor-
hood of Cuba, for when she started she
was fully provisioned and coaled, and
could, if necessary, go as far as Glib
raltar or Rio Janeiro without laying
in more supplies.
The New York arrived here on May
26 to participate in the ceremonies at
tending the unveiling of the Shaw mon
ument The battleship Massachusetts,
came with the flagship, while the bat
tleship Texas had arrived some days
previously. The Texas left a few days
ago, but the other two ships have been
swinging at their moorings off the navy
yard until yesterday.
That Rear Admiral Sicard must have
had some inkling of an important
cruise seems probable from the fact
that for the past few days the entire
