FALLING OF A METEOR.
Striking MeteOric Display Witnessed
ON Chesapcake Bay.

STRIKING MeteOflc DlSpl0y Witnessed
ON Chesapeake Bay.
Passengers on the steamer Norfolk. which
arrived from Norfolk this morning, Wit
messed last night on Chesapeake hay the
fall Of a meteor, ths most brilliant one that
has ever been seen in this section of the
country. The meteor fell in the southeast
quarter, and far out to sea, leaving behind
a trail of fire that extended half way across
the armament. AS the great satellite shot
across the sky it lighted up the entire bay,
throwing a silvery sheen on the black
waves as brilliant as the moons rays when
that orb is fullest.
Night had just fallen when the meteor
ard the boat an hour out from Old Point
Comfort. was proceeding rapidly up the
Chesapeake, making for the mouth of the
Potomac river. The large crowd enjoying
the sail from the deck noticed suddenly a
falling star. Instead of disappearing imme-
diately, as is usually the case, the falling
body continued on it's sweeping course,
moving in a semi-circular direction toward
the horizon. As 1t approached. the meteor
gradually appeared larger, until when 1t
flashed over the ship it was one great,
white, blazing mass, having the appearance
of gigantic Roman candle ball, a strea m
of sparks following in it's wake. apparently
n any mixes in length.
AS the crowd. awe-stricken. watched the
beautiful display the blaze disappeared be-
hind a bank of dense clouds, appearing a
fraction of moment later through a rift
near the horizon, and finally disappearing
forever. The meteor made profound i'm
preston on all the passengers. 1t was all

cling at rate of speed beyond computa-
ton. Many of the superstitious ones at
once connected the phenomenon with the
war with Spain, declaring that such a dis
play in the sky is witnessed only in war
times. That the blazing mass disappeared
in the direction of the West Indies was
taken as an omen of victory for the Ameri-
Can arms in Cuba and Porto Rico
Whatever the Importance of the meteoric
display, scientifically or superstitiously, the
beauty and picturesqueness were unsur-

and reappeared in the clouds was awe-in-

the meteor was seen to greater advantage
than could have been the case under any
other circumstances. The heavy storm

1t is undoubtedly a fact that our

robust sons and daughters, and did not
become weak, complaining invalids as
consequence.
There are probably several reasons for
this. One is, that they lived more in the
open air, and another, and probably the
most influential of all, is that they were
less prudish than the women of to-day.
They were not ashamed to know something
of their own physical makeup. They were
not too nice to take care of their health in
a woman1y way. Women nowadays suf-
fer untold tortures in silence, because of
weakness and disease of the distinctly
feminine organism, rather than consult
physician, or even talk upon the subject to
their own husbands. They imagine that
troubles of this description can only be
cured by undergoing the disgusting exam
nations and local treatment insisted upon
by the average modern physician. Doctor
Pierce's Favorite Prescription cures all dis
eases peculiar to women in the privacy of
their own homes. 1t does away with the
necessity for examinations and local treat
ment. 1t acts directly on the important
organs concerned, making them strong.
healthy and vigorous. It FITS for wifehood
and the burdens Of household duties. It
allays inflammation, heals ulceration and
s0othes pain. II tones and builds up the

vent easy and almost painless Thousands
