 After singing the club song, MT. Otto Rollwage, delivered a very logical address in behalf of Woman's Suf- frage. and the force and eloquence of ms speech was very impressive and convincing.

"Per- sons who will not agree to take an active part in the meetings are invited and welcomed. because those who do work have much faith in the power of nun bers, and the silent member ? may wieid great influence for good In being present at occasional club meetings.

She has nerves, papa says"
The mother who overheard this ac-
count of herself would feel heart-broken
to think of the shadow cast by her misery
on those she loved. Yet her condition IS
real. Her nerves are strained to the
point of torture. Lack of appetite and
loss of sleep increase her weakness.
Such a condition may, IN general be
traced to disease of the delicate womanly
organism, cure for which is found IN
the use of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre-
scription. It establishes regularity, heals
inflammation and liberation and cures
female weakness. 1t tranqullIzes the
nerves, encourages the appetite and III
duces refreshing sleep.

Measuring the Earth.

After nearly 80 years of constant
effort and the expenditure Of nearly
100000 scientists have succeeded
in accurately measuring the earth.
They have learned that it's diameter
through the equator is 1926 miles;
its height from pole to pole 1888
miles. The earth, therefore, is fiat
tened at the poles, and while this
fact has long been asserted the actual
measurement has removed the ques.
ton from the domain of doubt.
