Beef For Cuba.

The Star learns through it's
friend, Charles Jones, of the
George Bridges neighborhood ),
near Dunnellon, that Mr.. Oberry,
of Trilby, has been buying up all
the cattle he can find for the Gu
ban market. Monday he went to
Archer and leaving there with
500 head, rounded up at Mickle's
Ferry, on the Withlacoochee
river, with 500 head. Those in
Marion county who made sales to
Mr.. Oberry were Andrew Turner,
George Bridges, Offie Williams,
Fate Miller and Mr.. Weathers,
including a number of small lots,
averaging in price from $40 to s11
per head. Mr.. Weathers dis
posed Of sixty head. The Cuban
demand is clearing our piney
woods of Florida ''short horns, :"
and is proving a rich find for our
cattle men.

The doctor may be a good old
man, but even so, medical eXaml-
nations and the ''local applica-
ton" treatment are abhorrent to
every modest woman. They are
embarrassing - often useless.
They should not be submitted to
until everything else has been
tried. In nine cases out OF ten.
there is no reason for them. In
nine cases ont of ten, the doctor
in general practice isn't compe-
tent to treat female diseases.
They make a branch of medicine
by themselves. They are distinct
from other ailments. They can
be properly understood and treat
ed only by one WHO has had years
of actual practice and experience
in this particular line. This is
true of DR.. r. V. Pierce, chief con-
sulting physician of the 1nvalids'
Hotel and Surgical Institute at
Buffalo, n. y. DR.. Pierce's Fa-
vorite Prescription, remedy for
all arrangements of the repro.
Guctlve organs of women, has
been in actual use for more than
thirty years. 1t cures every form
