Pierce's Favorite Prescription, by restoring
the natural, healthy condition of the organs
distinctly feminine has been the means Of
comforting upon childless women the one
inestimable blessing.
A Georgia clergyman, Rev. G. H. Akridge Of

DR.. Pierce, says: I'VE had been married six
years without offspring, when my wife COM

my wife to good health and ten pound boy. In
honor of the world-famed Dr. Pierce, have
named him Pierce. Favorite Prescription is
certainly the medicine for invalid women"
The vast experience and skill which DR..
Pierce has acquired during his thirty years
practice as chief consulting physician to
the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute,
of Buffalo. NY, has made his name known
and his medicines recognized as standard
remedies in every civilized country on the

The big, healthy, man is a contiual
irritation to his dyspeptic friend.
Constipation is the root Of nine-tenths Of
the sickness Of men, and Of large pro-
portion Of the sickness Of women. 1t can
be cured easily, naturally and quickly.
Nature is continually working as hard as
she can to throw off impurities, and to
force out poisonous refuse matter. When
there is an impeachment, DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets set the wheels working
again without any trouble. They assist
nature in gentle, healthful, efficient
way. There is nothing violent about
their action, and yet it IS Just as certain
as If it were twice as violent. "You do
not become a slave to their use" They
are different and better than any other
pill for the cure Of constipation, headache
and kindred arrangements. Almost all

entions enough to tell you so. The drug.

The Albuquerque Cutoff.

The announcement by the Railroad
Age that the Santa Fe railway is to
build the Albuquerque cutoff is re-
garded by railroad men as semI-Ofi
cial, and there is no longer a particle
Of doubt that the road will be built.
The Railway Age is the leading
railway publication in the United
States, and announcements that rail
road lines will be built never appear
10 its columns until there is positive
assurance that they will be carried
out. The statement by the Age that
the Albuquerque cutoff will te built
is, therefore, regarded as conclusive
evidence that the Santa Fe is now
ready to build what every far seeing
man has known the road would be
compelled to build some time in the
pear future. The official announce.
ment OF the contemplated construc
tiOn OF this cut of is looked for any

Thirty.lve years ago 10 the south,
1t was the cdstom among fashionable
women to "dip" snuff. There are
several southern women living 10
Wellington who acquired the habit
10 their maiden days and still cling
to 1t. They have an appetite for
snuff like men have for tobacco. The
custom is considered a ridiculous one
by northern and western women.
The southern snuff users know this,
and are very sensitive, and keep the
knowledge OF their dipping" habits
away from their most intimate west
ern friends. But among themselves
they are less restrained. At social
gathering Of southern women Of the
old school, each woman is TO be seen
with little round tin box in her
hand and short wooden brush" in
her mouth: they are dipping" The
snuff is entirely harmless, and the
habit is one which the women refuse
10 give up In their old age.

ANOTHER PRIZE.
Young ladies in the University

Prize Offered to Best all R0uAd StndeBt

Atkinson has taken second thought
Letter Which is self Explanatos -
Good Results Of a Newspaper article
Governor Atkinson has noticed a
card in the NEW DOMINION written by
DIR. S. V. Leech of this place in regard
tothe prize offered by him for the best
all around student in the University.
The letter after stating that he had
noticed the article is as follows:
ssYou are entirelyr light when you say
that / did not, in that offer leave the
matter open TO young ladies as well as
young men. The fact is l did not
think Of it in the light in which you
present the subject in your newspaper
article. / talked the subject over
with my ~ife last night, ard | think
lshe will make similar offer to mine
which will be open to ladies. Instead
of "manliness," she will use the term
'.womanlinessv and she will substi-
tute something for physical prowess.
My idea in offering the twenty five
dollar gold prize was to cover all the
qualities Of good student and phys
ical prowess is, in my judgment, a
very important part of ones education.
One can by proper exercise put upon
himself whip chord muscle which
will be of incalculable value to him
through all subsequent years. II my
wife does not agree TO offer like prize
for competition by the young ladies
of the University | will change my
offer for the coming year, which
authorized the President to renew and
will arrange it so as to allow young
ladies to compete for the prize. When
in College myself spent consider
able portion of my time in athletics,
and have been greatly benefited by
it. This is one reason why inserted
the words physical prowess" in my
offer 1t was furthest from my
thought to cut the young ladies or in
any way,refiect upon them. The fact
did not occur to my mind when |
made the offer that we had co-educa-
tion in the University. When went
through College we did not have CO.
education. This is the only excuse
l have to offer for my apparent refiec-
tien upon the young ladies attending
the University.
Cordially and truly yours,
G.. w. ATKINSON.
