A puny child is slways an anxiety to
the parents. There seems generally no
reason why the little one should be
weak when it is so well fed. But the fact
is that it does not natter how much food
the child takes If the stomach cannot
extract the nourishment from it. No
benefit can be derived from Just eating
That is the condition of ma any sickly
child. The stomach and organs of d.
gestion and nutrition are not doing
their work, and the body is really starv-
ing. 1t is little use to give the foods,
like cod liver oilor emuls1ons, in such a
case, because these also have to be d.
gested; they may tighten the stomach IS
labor but they don't strengthen it.
Strength is what the stomach needs.
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
strengthens the stomach, nourishes the
nerves and increases the action of the
blood making glands. 1t is superior to
every other preparation for children's
use, on account of its body building
qualities, and alao because it is pleasant
to the taste and contains no alcohol,
whisky or other intoxicant. DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets are valuable aid w hen
the bowels are irregular. They are
small. Children take them readily.

Fourteenth Wife.

James Meriday of Rarboursville,
KY, has proved that the number ID is
no more unlucky than any other num-
Der. He was divorced from his thir-
teenth wife October IL and married
his fourteenth wife one hour later.
Meriday is 80 years old, and in APP
pearance resembles Buffalo Bill. Four
of his wives are dead, nine have been
divorced and the fourteenth was a
widow.
