A childless woman has missed the greatest
pleasure in the universe. She has missed the
vague, soft caresses of helpless, sweet little
hands that cling to her with blind love and
dependence She has missed the miracle
of motherhood. She is not truly woman,
If she is to be mother, she must be
healthily capable. A weak, sickly woman
IS not to be expected to bear healthy child
Bearing all unhealthy child Is a crine-pun-
ishable by Natures infexible laws. Punish
able with misery and remorse. The wonder
is that there should be unhealthy women
and unhealthy children. 1t is the fault of
the women. Their i'll health is unnecessary.
They may be perfect women, and bear per
feet children-easily and without pain, if
they choose to do So
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription makes
women well. 1t purifies and invigorates the
organs distinctly feminine, and makes the
mother better able to nourish the child be-
fore and after birth. 1t frees the ordeal of
childbirth from much of its pain and dan
ger. It insures the health of both mother
and child 1t prevents premature birth and
miscarriages. All good druggists sell it.
Mrs. Beulah Woodall of Bateman, Patrick Co.,
Va, writes :" was afflicted for four years with
disease of the womb but would not confess ii for
time My mother told HE she had read of Dr.
Pierces medicines and advised me to try them

we'll in verse, but if you have case of
the "blues" caused by Indigestion, with
biliousness added on as an extra horror,
you can not say hey presto and thus in
sure the departure of those abominable
twins. The "proper caper" when thus
troubled, is to seek the aid of Hostetter's
Stomach Bitters. Thereafter you will
speedily digest with ease and eat with ap.
petite, and your liver will reasssert its
right to regularity. Not only this, you
can retire without horrible dread that
the Washington monument will, in dreams
impose itself upon the pit of your
stomach. If you feel premonitory symp-
toms of chills and fever, kidney trouble,
or rheumatism, summon the Bitters to the
rescue without delay, "lest worse thing
befalls YOU" A fesbled condition of the
system is more speedily changed to Wig
orous one by this fine tonic than by any
other medicinal agent in existence. A
wineglassful three times day.

Hello the Editor.

The following did not originate in

paper men are blamed for a lot of
things they cannot help; such as using
partiality in mentioning visitors, giving
news about some folks and leaving cut
others, etc. They simply print the
news they can find. An editor should
rot be expected to know the names
and residences of your uncles, aunts
and cousins, even if he should see
them off on the train. Tell him about
it. It's news that makes newspaper,
and every man, woman and child In
the neighborhood could be associate
editors if they would. Press and
Printer.
That's Just what they could do. The
original way that children have of con
tributing. and pleasure they seem to
take in it, does one good. A few days
ago, a little girl of perhaps 10 years
old, came running across the street 70
