THE WHEELS OF HEALTH.

There is no better exercise for young
woman in thoroughly good health than
bicycling. On the contrary, if she suffers
from weakness or disease of the distinctly
feminine organs, if she rides, at all, such
exercise should be very sparingly INDUCED
in. Women are peculiarly constituted and
their general health is peculiarly dependent
upon the health of the specially feminine
organism.
1t is the health of these delicate and i'm
portant parts that makes the wheels of
general health go round" Their strength
and vigor are as important to woman as a
handspring to a watch, or sprocket and
chain to bicycle. DIR. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription is the best of all medicines for
delicate women. 1t makes them strong
where they most need strength. Taken
during the interesting interval" 1t BAN
ishes the usual squeamishness and makes
baby's admission to the world easy and al
most painless. 1t fits a woman for indoor
work and outdoor sports. Honest druggists
don't advise substitutes.
81 cannot say enough in praise Of DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription, as il has undoubtedly saved
my life. !" writes Mrs. Florence Hunter. of Corley
Logan Co., ARK. :" miscarried four times; could

The Fore Trial.

The preliminary trial of J. P. Fore
for the killing of E. T. Matthews has
been in progress before Chancellor
Conn ever since yesterday morning,
and is likely to continue through to-
morrow, possibly next day. Between
IS and 100 witnesses have been sum-
moned, and necessarily their exami-
nation consumes much time. The
State is represented by Judge Cassidy
and Hon. r. N. Miller and the defense
by Hons. A. C. McNair and j. L. RAM
sey. The present issue involved is,
whether Fore is entitled to bail pend
ing the action Of the next grand jury.
Chancellor Conn is sitting as con-
servator of the peace or committing
magistrate, and it is understood his
decision will be accepted by Fore's
attorneys as final without appeal on
a writ of habeas corpus.
