BOTTOMS LAST YEAR.
The way He Spent 1t Preparing For
His Death.

"Billy Bolton, the Lansingburg brew
er, was a very rich man and one with
host of friends" said an up state man
to the New York Sun. "His brewery
in Lansingburg was a profitable con-
Germ, and he practically owned about
all the saloons in that town.
Zone day after consultation his ply
sicians told him that he had Bright's
disease and that he surely would not
live more than year. Billy took their
word for it and made up his mind to
make the fur fly while life was left.
He had never Travelled much, and so he
decided to go around the world.
HE took with him congenial friend
and plenty of money, and away they
went. They left trail of fire and ash
es through all the capitals of Europe
and the queer and strange places OF
Asia and Africa. After nine months
they came back, and Bolton brought
with him the most marvellous collection
of souvenirs and presents that any
man not a professional collector ever
brought into this country. The duties
amounted to $1,000.
Arrived in Lansingburg, Billy hired
the town hall, sent his packing boxes
filled with these oriental and European
treasures up to the hall and had them
all taken out and put on exhibition as
though for church fair. Upon each
article he marked the name of some
friend whom he wished to remember
with a gift. There were hundreds in
this category, but Billy had presents
for them all.
"On the day appointed for the pres
entation he invited his army of friends
to the town hall. To each he turned
over the present selected for him, an(
amid the cheers of his grateful and adj
miring fellow townsmen the hall was
stripped of it's beautiful things
when the last present had beer
placed in the hands of its recipient
Billy went back to his home and la,
down to die. Within the year his ply
sicians' prophecy came true, and thu
town gave him the finest funeral tina
any man ever had"

Between the ages of fifteen and
forty-ffve, the time when WOmanhpod
begins and motherhood ends, it: is
estimated that the aggregate term OF
woman's suffering is ten years. Ten
years out of thirty! One third of the
best part of a woman's life sacrificed!
Think Of the enormous loss of time!
But time is not all that is lost. Those
years of suffering steal the bloom
from the cheeks, the brightness from
the eyes, the fairness from the form.
They write their record in many
crease and wrinkle. What a boon
then to woman is DR.. Pierce's F0vOr
tie Prescription. 1t promotes perfect
regularity, dries up debilitating
drains, heals liberation. cures fa-
male weakness, and establishes the
delicate wOn2anly organs in vigorous

done by DR.. Pierce's ravCGite Pre-
