The Venezuela Herald says that the famous Pedernales asphalt mine, which has attained some notoriety since it was said to have been bought by Gov ernor Pingree of Michigan, has just passed without noise, without eclat, without publicity into the hands of modest French group of Havre, at the head of which is Ernest Frierdich. The mine is leased for twelve years, the lessees to pay ten francs per ton of asphalt exported and undertaking to

The long-talked-of telephonic commu- nication between the two Russian capi- tals, Moscow and St. Petersburg, is likely this year to become an accom- plished fact The undertaking is under the control of the Imperial Telegraph Department, and the stations will be at the chief telegraph office in either city. As the average speed of ordinary tele- graphic dispatches between Moscow and St. Petersburg, which are four hun dred miles apart, is about that of the railroad, ten or twelve hours being con sidered good time, the new telephone will prove an inestimable boon to busi- ness men, who in case of urgency are now obliged to pay three times the or dinary tariff to get their dispatches through as Special" messages. The line is rot likely to be actually in work ing order before October, and it is said that the price for five minutes conver- sation will probably be fixed at one and a half rubles, or little over seventy five cents.

Telegraph, who has been at the front in Santiago, after examining the wounds of number of American soldiers and after talking with the army surgeons, has come to the conclusion that the Mauser rifle bullet, used by the Span iards, is the most civilized bullet ever used in warfare, as it makes a clean, neat wound, and while disabling a man temporarily, does not cause nearly so much suffering as various others. He cited instances where men had been hit two and three times before they knew they had been struck.

It is stated by an observer in the rice growing districts of the South that the planters have recently hit upon a device for saving the crop from the rice birds. These birds have been accustomed to feed in May, when rice was juicy. Lately rice has been plant ed in March and April so when May comes the berry is too hard for the birds. No rice is planted in May, but there is another planting in June. The birds come as usual in May, find no rice suitable for their use, and go away. This device of changing the time of ripening does away with the necessity for the continued use of explosives to scare the birds from the fields. The curious are wondering how long the birds will be fooled.

J&9 SSs5o II the complexion IS
clear, the eyes bright
and the lips rosy. Hearty, healthy whole
someness is better than mere beauty of
features. A face full of the glow of good
health-full of the kindliness and good
humor that health brings, is bound to
be an attractive face-a face that will
make friends. The face tells the story
of the whole body. Murder will out "
and SO will female weakness" and
nervousness and other disorders peculiar
to women.
If there is a drain on the system and
strength, the record of it will show in
the face. If there is nerve nagging
bearing down" pains, dragging and
pulling at the most sensitive organs in a
woman's body, the face will show it.
Abused nerves draw lines of care and
worry on the face. Nervous prostration
writes its warning on the face long before
it comes. Sleeplessness, nervousness and
facilitating drains make more wrinkles
than age.
Nine-tenths of the sickness of women
comes from some arrangement of organs
distinctly feminine. Nine-tenths of this
sickness can be cured and avoided by the
use OF DR.. Pierees Favorite Prescription.
There is nothing miraculous about the
Favorite Prescription nothing super
natural.
1t is the result of rational thought
and study applied to medicine.
1t has been prescribed by DIR. Pierce
for over 80 years. 1t has made thousands
of women healthy and happy, and has
brought joy to thousands of homes.
In " female weakness F" it acts directly
and strongly in healing and strengthen
ing the parts that are most severely tried.
1t clears out impurities and promotes
regularity at all times.
