The Fruit Outlook.

II. F. Hillenmeyer, the noted horti-
culturist, writes the Lexington Herald
as follows concerning the fruit situa-
ton: "The apples are not damaged;
neither are the pears. Grapes have
suffered severely, but will nevertheless
yield good crop. Cherries are prOba-
bly, somewhat damaged, though it is
hard TO estimate to what extent. The
rsspberries are snug and the snow has
really helped them very much. AM
rather apprehenslve of the damage to
the blackberries that will result. An
interesting fact is that there are more
bushels of blackberries eaten in Ken
lucky each year than there are of ap-
pies. Hence the loss of the crop would
be a severe one. However, do not
apprehend so serious result, although
there is unquestiOnably some damage
done to the bushes"

there's difference in another respect,
and that difference is worth money
Its just 40 with laundry. The difference

difference that counts every time. It's
difference that changes yOur laundry

WOMEN N Trouble.
The Approach of Motherhood is the
Occasion of Much Anxiety to All.


Occasion of Much Anxiety to All.
Every woman breads the ordeal
through which she must pass in becom-
ing a mother. The pain and suffering
which is in store for her is source of
constant anxiety, fear and dread, to
say nothing Of the danger which the
coming incident entails. The joyous
anticipatiOns with which she looks for
ward 80 baby's coming gives way to an
indescribable dread Of the ordeal when
she fully realizes the critical and trying
event which will soon approach and
have to be endured.
Women should hail with delight q
remedy which insures to them i'm
munity from the pain, suffering and
danger incidental to collaborating.
Such a remedy is now offered, and
women need not fear longer the hour of
childbirth. Mothers Friend"-is a
scientific hniment-and if used before
confinement, gently and surely prepares
the body for the great requirements
and changes it is undergoing, insures
safety to both mother and child, and
takes her through the event with COM
parative ease and comfort. This won
derful remedy is praised by every
woman who has used it.
What woman is not interested in
Mothers Friend?" This wonderful
remedy has been tested and its price,
less value proven by the experience of
thousands of happy mothers who
have used it during the most critical
period Of woman's life-the approach
and elimination of motherhood.
1t has won their everlasting praise,
for it gave them help and hope in
their most trying hour and when
most needed. Every woman may some
day need Mothers Friend" The
little book, Before Baby is Born, 4"
telling all about it, and when it should
be used, will prove Of great interest and
benefit TO all expectant mothers, and
will be sent free to any address upon
application to the Bradfeld Regulator
Company, Atlanta, Ga.

West Indian republic when he was a
young man. His first real prominence
was attained during the war with the
Spaniards in 1866, when he commanded
the Santo Domingo army. After the
cessationNof hostilities he became very
prominent in politics. He held sever

He served one term. In 1887 he again
was placed in the presidential chair,
and has been elected continuously ever
since. Heureaux faced dozens of revo-

victorious. Last year when the war
between Spain and the United States
was at its height an exhibition of fill

1t was given out that the expedition

Sam Clark was talking at his best.
Anecdote and imagery-merry and

flowed from his ips-not the broken
and ill-shaped expression of one who
merely used words with indiscrimin-
ate purpose and undigested considera-

tiers, but limpidly as Horace wrote,
charged with the animation of Scott
and expanded with the fecundity of
Dickens. 1t was like a spring whose
sparkling waters flow free-like gar
den where flowers of every sort run
riot for the picking-like great gall

But what we do know is that no man

that in all that time what the others
said would not, collectively, have con-
sumed five minutes. The beauty and
funcidity of Sam Clark's utterances
held those weary men as by a SYPHILIS

resources of the vocabulary he drew
upon, the Elasticity of his utterance

was nothing pedantic in it mo declam-

egotism. 1T was the polished, rounded
utterance of the modest gentleman

unteers that trooped to the challenge

signed for the purpose of his use.

SAM CLARK IN CONVERSATION.
Former Ottumwan Tells Of the Versa.

H. S. Needler in the Boone Repub-
lican: The editor of this paper has
known in twenty years only two men
in Iowa who were conversationalists.
Singularly enough, they both came
from the same town-Keokuk, One
was that country lawyer appointed to
the supreme bench who became one
of the most distinguished jurists Of his
generation. He told the writer that
when he attended his first public din
ner in Washington he was speechless.

art, science and politics. He went
home Inundated, abashed, but with
the resolution fast formed to meet
upon an equality with the brightest
wits of the world. He read omniver-
ously, he studied, he forced himself to
talk, to adopt the mode of expression
which gave grace and charm to social
environment. And it is recalled that
Justice Harlan became one of the most
wonderful conversationalists of his
time.
The other citizen of Keokuk we re-
ferred to was Sam Clark, the editor of
the Gate City. Here is just an instance
of his wonderful charm OF speech. 1t
was at the close of a long and weari-
some state convention held at Des
Moines. The writer went down early
to the train and found in the Pullman
the man whose kindly commentator
had inspired him as boy. Sitting
with him there aud recalling his near
ness to Henry Clay Dean, we asked Mr..
Clark something Of that almost abor-
iginal genius.
Other men came in before the train
