It does this by a prenatal pre- paration in which the mother finds herself growing stronger instead of weaker with each month. Instead of nausea and nervousness, there are healthy appetite, quiet nerves, and refreshing sleep. The minds con- tent keeps pace with the body's S comfort. There is no anxiety, no dread of the approaching time of travail. When the birth hour comes 1t is practically painless, the recovery is rapid, and the mother finds herself abundantly able to nurse her child.

"Let It Never Be Forgotten"


 A more enticing book it would be hard to find than Two Wars, an Autobiog- raphy." by Gen. s. G. French of the Con- federate Army. We call attention to an incident which 1t narrates, and which de- serves to be held in everyiasting remem- br ance. At the battle of kennesaw " Mountain. June @1, 1864, General sherman made a front attl:k on General John ston's lines and was repulsed with aw- ful slaughter, leaving many thousands of his dead and wounded on the ground the intrenched Confederates suffering comparatively small loss. Tt was during this battle" says General French. that one of the noblest deeds of humanity was performed that the world has ever Wit messed and we ,, are sure 2 that t,ept no one | Colonel Martin, 1st Arkansas regiment, Cleburnes division. seeing the woods In | front of him on fire and burning the to q ram-rod. and, amidst the danger of | battle mounted the parapet and shouted | to the enemy: Come ard remove your wounded; they are burning to death. We wont fire gun until you get them away. Be quick!'' And, with his own men, he leaped over the works and helped in the | humane work. When this work was end | ed, noble Federal Major was so im- pressed by such magnanimity that he | pulled from his belt d brace of fine pis- | tOls and presented them to Colonel Mar | tin with the remark: Accept them with my appreciation of the nobility of | this deed. It deserves to be perpetuated to the deathless honor of every one of l you concerned in it.; and should you | fight a thousand other battles and win a thousand other victories, you will never | win another so noble as this" Is there l anything in history that better illus trates he higher meaning of chivalry? It is fit to be matched with the conduct of young Kirkland of South Carolina. who, at the risk of his life, loaded himself with canteens of water and climbed over the Qualifications at Fredericksburg while the battle was raging, that he might re- lieve the thirst of his wounded foes. It Is even finer than the magnanimity of
 Sir Philip Sidney at zutphen. or than that of the French cuirassier at Water
 loo. If the people of the South should
 ever forget 1t. they would be guilty of a piece of unpardonable baseness. We
 have often wished that some one with competent literary skill, would gather up into a bright and attractive volume the
 more notable instances in the war be-
 tween he Confederate States and the United States, in which the better side | of human nature found It's expression.
 Some things should be cast into obliv' lon: but whatever furnishes a lesson in high courtesy, is an inalienabie part of our inheritance and should be passed | on to our children. M. J, K. 1 Nashville AdV.D

Pain in the head and back is form
of suffering with which 50 many women
are familiar. Often this pain is asso-
ciated with nervousness, sleeplessness
and loss of appetite. The cause of such
suffering is generally to be traced to
arrangement of the wornanly function,
or a diseased condition of the delicate
womanly organs.
In such cases the action of DIR. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription is marvellous in
the prompt relief of pain and permanent
cure of disease. 1t regulates the peri
odic function, dries disagreeable drains,
heals inflammation and liberation, and
cures female weakness. 1t cures when
