The record-union., 1898-09-24

If life were one long summer day and its
journey through a garden of flowers, it
might be possible for people to be careless
of their health without fearing evil results.
Unfortunately, since Adam and Eve were
driven from the Garden of Eden, life has
not been toilless journey through garden
of flowers. Man must earn bread by the
sweat of his brow, and woman must bring
forth children in pain and suffering
In both cases the curse is multiplied
many times over because both men and
women neglect their health. Mans toll is
rendered a thousand times harder by the
added burden of ill-health. The woman is
a still greater sufferer. She suffers in ST.
lence untold agonies from weakness and
disease in a womanly way. Motherhood
becomes to her menace of death, and her
babes are born with the seeds of disease
already implanted in their little bodies.
There is but one unfailing remedy for won-
en- who suffer in this way. 1t is Dr. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription. 1t acts directly on
the delicate and important organs that bear
the brunt of maternity. 1t makes them
strong, healthy, vigorous, virile and elastic.
It allays Inflammation, heals liberation,
soothes pain and tones aud builds up the
tortured nerves. 1t fits for wifehood and
motherhood It does away with the trials
of the period of apprehension and makes
baby's advent easy and almost painless.
Thousands have testified to its marvellous
merits
Twas afflicted for fonr years with local weak
ness, but would not confess II for time writes
Mrs Beuah Woodall of Batetnan, Patrick Co.,
Va, then took the Favorite Prescription
and Golden Medical Discovery, and they cured
me. I cannot praise Dr.. Pierce's medicines

APPRECIATION EXPRESSED.
The Jockey Clubs Letter to the
Chamber of Commerce.

T. H. Williams, Jr., President Of the
California Jockey Club, has on behalf
of the club expressed to the Chamber
of Commerce its appreciation of its ef-
forts in procuring the half-holiday yes
terday in the following letter:
~. o. Coleman, Secretary Chamber
of Commerce, Sacramento-Dear Sir:
In behalf of the California Jockey
Club I desire to express to you our ap-
probation of the efforts Of your organ
ization to promote an additional public
attraction for Sacramento, in obtain
ing the consent of the leading business
men Of the city to close their respective
places of business this afternoon for
our benefit.
I'm selecting this city for our initial
attempt to extend the field of racing in
California we were prompted by the
well-knoWn reputation of your citizens
for the encouragement Of enterprise,
and while we have thus far not made
it q profitable venture, we are pleased
with the general desire on the part Of
the business community to aid our
efforts
1--WE had hoped by this experiment to
provide increased opportunities of BEN
eft to the breeders of our State, and it
but remains for the public to second
US by fair share Of patronage which,
if extended, would certainly insure fu-
ture meetings in Sacramento.

CAUGHT A THIEF.
Special Officer Carroll Makes an
Early Morning Capture.

About o'clock yesterday morning
Special Officer Carroll arrested man
in the vicinity of Eleventh and Q
streets on suspicion Of having stolen a
quantity of pipe and other trappings
belonging to a patent sink. The pris-
ener gave his name as Harry Carson.
When he saw that he was being
watched by Carroll, the man ran into
the alley between N, o, Eleventh and
Twelfth streets, and threw the sack
containing the stuff into a vacant lot.
Then he took refuge in an unoccupied
house. The officer got the driver Of a
sprinkling wagon to guard the front Of
the house, while he went in by the rear
and captured the fellow.
Carroll would like to have the owner
Of the stolen material call and get it.
He also requires evidence that the con-
tents Of the sack were stolen, in order
to secure the conviction Of the thief.
Special Officer Carroll has several
times intercepted thieves crossing his
reservation embracing the territory
from Tenth to Fifteenth, n and @ with
plunder obtained elsewhere, while but
one or two attempts to steal have been
made there since he went on that beat
many months ago. He is a vigilant
officer and earns twice as much money
as he gets for his services
