only one medicine SO sure to help you
that it was for years sold under q

cate women, or in any 'female COM
plant" or weakness, it never fails to
benefit or cure. It's an invigorating,
restorative tonic, q soothing and
strengthening nervine, or nerve food,
and q safe and certain remedy for

THE ST. LOUIS HORSE SHOW.
Monte Cristo First, Thornton Stal
Second, Ike Very Highly Com
mended in the Gated Stallion
Show Monday Night.

From the Globe Democrat.
Monday night the gated saddle stall
lion class brought out seven magnif-
cent saddlers. The only local entry was
that of Drinks Parrish, Black Squirrel
II. He was In the hottest kind Of
company, having to meet Ike, who
was second to Rex Mcdonald In the
same class at the st. Louis Fair;
Thornton Star, who was third in the
same class, and Monte Cristo, Jr., and
Black Squirrel. 1t was a case of Ken.
lucky against Missouri, and Kentucky
won irst honors. Monte Cristo, Jr.,
owned by ]. T. Crenshaw, of Lexing-
ton, KY, got the blue, while Thorn.
ton Star, a Mexico (Mo.l horse, took
the red. The third went to another
Kentucky horse, Richmond Squirrel,
while Ike, the M~issourian, had to be
content with v. n. O.
Awards were based on sound judg-
ment In every case, the only possible
exception being in the gated saddle
stallion class. In that it appeared that
the judges were unnecessarily harsh
with R. e. Hisey's handsome bay, Ike
He is q magnificent gated animal, and
in style and conformation is exceeded
by very few show horses. The judges,
however, only placed him fourth, Civ
ing him a v. 81. O.
After this class there was an exhibi.
ton by the unbeaten saddle stallion,
Rex Mcdonald, now the property Of
Col. F. W. Blees, Of Macon, Mo. The
beautiful black wa put through 81
his paoes and Wa sivenl quites recsp'
ton.
HANDLED By WIN. D. LEE.
In addition to the regular pro
gramme there was an exhibition b,
Rex Mcdonald, the great saddie horse
which has nearly everything out
cIassed, and which sold within th'
month for 5000. The people who say
the exhibition knew mot which to ad'
mire most, the great horse or tn
manner in which he was handled.
The st. Louis Repnbiic says: Ike
defeat in the class for gated saddi
stations waaa surprise OF the evening
Ike 10 well known az q frequent win
ner at the st. Louis fair, but he fel
down badly last night. Monte Cristo
Jr., Thornton Star and Richmon'
Squirrel all took his measure, h
being highly commended.
