OF all the specialists in the world, there
probably are not two that have as wide an
experience in the treatment of women's
diseases as DIR. X. V. Pierce, chief consult
ing physician to the Invalids' Hotel and
Surgical Institute, at Buffalo, N. Y With
the assistance of his staff of able physi-
clans, he has prescribed, in the past thirty
years, for many thousands of women DR..
Pierce is pre- emincntly a sympathetic ply
stefan. Perhaps more than any other man
in the profession he realizes the hardships
of woman's work, and the disadvantages
under which she labors because of the
weak delicate and susceptible structure OF
the feminine organism. His immense prac-
tice in diseases peculiar TO women forced
upon his recognition the fact that women
would never take the proper care of their
health, so long as that care required the
repugnant examinations and local
treatments |" insisted upon by nearly all
physicians. After years of study he invent
ed a remedy now known as DR. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription that is an absolute
and unfailing cure for the most complicated
and obstinate cases of diseases peculiar to
women This wonderful medicine cures in
the privacy of the home and does away
with the necessity for obnoxious local
treatment" 1t imparts health, strength,
vigor and elasticity to the organs distinctly
feminine and fits for wifehood and mother
hood.

of the gunner is much easier than one
nearer the muzzle.
In addition to this force there is an
immense pressure exerted on the sides
of the cannon, so that another dis
tinct series of shocks also raditates
outward from the barrel of the gun.
These lines of force are influenced, be-
sides, by the recoil of the gun, which
tends to make the lines curve outward
and intensifies the shock. These are
in turn more or less compensated by
the forces of the air opposing them
as it rushes into the mouth of the
cannon when the projectile leaves it,
AS q result OF all these forces the
atmosphere is, of course, violently
disturbed. Although no projectile
strikes the gunner, who must stand
by, it will be seen that the air is full
of missiles in the form of invisible
lines of force or vibration, which

That, as a rule, for washing the
hands, neither very hot nor cold
water should be used.
That there are exceptions, of course,
and occasional necessity for extremes
but that tepid water should be the
usual immersion.
That few drops of ammonia or a
small quantity of borax may be added
to soften the water.
That a convenient way in which to
use the latter is to make q solution OF
borax and water, which may be kept
in bottle, and added, a few dlops a,

Do Your Own Canning.
NOoksack Reporter.

XNooAbeCA AACPOhtCAs
A. J. NJ. Mosom invited q number of
ranchers and their wives to assist in a
practical exhibition of home canning
at Herman Wuscher's place near
Nooksack last week. The waste of
surplus fruits is a serious loss to
growers. The exhibition was given to
show that this waste might be over
come by creating a market for
home canned fruits. The attendance
was large and Mr.. Hosom formed them
in two classes, men and women. The
ladies had the best of it of course and
plenty of fun over the awkwardness of
the men scholars.
Samples of two pound cans, trays,
boilers, soldering, ETC., were supplied
and the classes started business. The
process ran as follows: Sugar and
water were boiled to a syrup; the
fresh fruit put in cans and boiling
syrup poured on until the can was
full to within a fourth inch of top J.;
the caps on and soldering down, the
cap having a small hole in top; the
cans were placed on trays, put in the
boiler and boiled four minutes to
sterilize the fruit; taken out, holes in
caps soldered, returned to boiler and
boiled 10 minutes if strawberries and
IL minutes if cherries; labelling the
cans with handsome labels completed
the process and the goods would orna'
ment the shelves of any grocery.
The cans make as nice q show az
those of the commercial canneries and
may be seen at the Whatcom board oil
trade rooms. The tools and appliances
for a domestic cannery, says Mr.
Hosom, that would output 5000 cans
day, will cost about $50. Where
several families unite the cost of q
plant is a small matter.

the figure was changed to by draw

said 1t might be possible that the
change was made in the date sometime
after the tax was paid.
The contestants attorneys called the
name of John Osborn, of the Twelfth
ward, who has been in his grave four
months. The respondents attorneys
alleged that six names were called and
the men have been gone from the ward
six months. and four who were called,
have been dead nearly as long as that.

of the sewer and furnishes convenient
lodging place for dirt and all kinds of
refuse.

Several Patients at Lnckawanna
HospitaI Placed Under II.

Drs. Newbury and Webb, house doc

some interesting operations last night

of the North End, brought a young
lady patient to be examined under the
rays for an injury to one of the bones
of the Jaw, and two patients of the
hospital suffering with dislocations Of
the ankle joints were examined.
DR.. Newbury may put George
Weaver, Of Dunmore, under the rays
tomorrow evening with view TO locat-
ing the bullet lodged in the abdominal
cavity. Weaver is the man who shot
himself Saturday night. He is resting
very comfortably, but the presence Of
the bullet in his body is a menace to
his life. There is a possibility that it
may cause an irritation and superin-
duce blood poisoning.

MINER SERIOUSLY INJURED.
In a Peculiar Manner at the Hampton
Mine Yesterday.

John McNiff, of Luzerne street, was
badly injured at the Hampton mines
yesterday morning by accidentally
getting in the way of a blast" The
injured man is a miner and was at
work in his chamber" as usual. In
the place" next to him the miner had
placed charge and just before firing
it he called out the warning fire" Mr..
McNin understood and thinking the
fellow wanted to have him come over
he stepped through "cross-cut" into
the chamber.
He had not fully gotten through when
the charge exploded. The conclusion
threw him down and a large piece Of
coal striking him, broke his right leg.
He was badly bruised and shaken up.
The injured man was taken to the
Moses Taylor hospital where his inju-
ries received attention.
