Priceless Pain

"a II a price can be placed on pain, Mothers
FRIEND IS worth its weight In gold as an nIievi-
ator Ny vVifc suffered in ten minutes with
either OF her other two children than She did al
together with her last, having previousiS, used
four bottles of Mothers Fricnd Itisa lsiessiny
to any one expecting to become mother" says
customer.
Thus writes Henderson Dale. DRUGGIST
of Carini, ILL.,, to the Bradfeld Regulator
Company, of Atlanta, Ca, the proprie-
tors and manufacturers of Mothers
Friend" This successful remedy is not
one of the many internal medicines adj
vertised to do unreasonable things, but a
scientifically prepared iniment especially
effective in adding strength and elasticity
to those parts of wonlan's organism which
bear the severest strains of Childbirth.
The inf1nent may be used at any and
all times during pregnancy up to the
very hour of confinement. The earlier it
is begun, and the longer used, the more
perfect will be the result, but it has been
used during the last month only with
great benefit and success.
It not only shortens labor and lessons
the pain attending it, but greatly diInin-
ishes the danger to life of both mother
and child, and leaves the mother in con-
ditiou more favorable to speedy recovery.

As this white winter wrapped in ermine

A royal silence brooding everywhere
And nll the world voiceless dream Of peace.

In fiery hues the wide west flames and glOws,
Nor fades till stars are shining out on high.

The wind is hushed that erst did sob and vail

Forgetting pain and care and joy and grief,
Creeps solemnly apace and shrouds the light.

HAVANESE NOT AFRAID.
A Germans Account of the Situation
in the Cuban Capital.

ST. LOUIS, July 2S.-August Grupe, one
of the foremost merchants of Cuba, who has
lived in Havana for twenty-four years,
stopped here to-day en- route to Germany
on a visit In the course of an interview
Mr.. Grippe said: when left Havana, two
weeks ago, the inhabitants were not in the
slightest fear that city would be lombard
ed. In fact, everything was going the same
as usual. The theaters, dancing halls, bust
ness Of every character were fiourishing.
and but for the presence of troops in the
city you would never know a war was in
progress. The blockade at Havana has thus
far not proved very effective. The farms
around the city furnish all the supplies nee
essary. The soil is SO fertile that crops can
be produced in thirty days. There is no
scarcity of provisions in Havana, nor has
there been any perceptible advance in the
price of food There are 10000 regular SOL
diers and $1,000 volunteers in the city About
5000 are at work night and day strengthen
ing Havana Notifications under the personal
direction of General Blanco. A few days
before l quit the city the captain general
told me Havana would be well-nigh impreg-
nable, and that talk of its fall after six
months bOmbardment was sheer nonsense"

FAVOR ANNEXATION.
Sentiment of Cuban Refugees Who
Were Banished by .WeyIer.

ATLANTA, Ga, July 2S.--Atlanta harbors
many Cuban refugees and nearly all of
them favor annexiEg the island to the
United States. Many of them were banished
from the island a year ago by the Spaniards
and they confidently expect to return soon.
DR.. Francisco Pla, one of the most prom-
nent refugees in town, said tonight: II
have always believed that annexation
meant the salvation of Cuba, and while the
majority of native Cubans favor an inde-
pendent government there are great num-
berS who are for annexation"
B. Llorens had this to say: Il think the
majority of the Cubans on the island favor
a government of their own. but / should be
satisfied with an American form of gov
eminent, as 1 believe it would work great
good"
Eugenio Crabb: II am for annexation,
and / intend going back to Cuba when peace
has been restored. Those who have given
the matter any thought at all favor at least
an American protectorate-"
1.-THE majority of Cubans," said another
refugee. ARE for an Independent govern
ntent, and they have been fighting for 1t
for years, but we, who have lived here for
any length of time and have studied the
American form of government, are of the
opinion that annexation will be the best
thing for the island"
