The city of New Orleans has been
adding new attractions to the City
Park in the way Of four new artifici-
al lakes, the largest Of which is a
miniature Lake P~onohartrain, which
is exactly the same shape as the large
lake and comprises $500 cubic
yards of earth and is six feet deep.
A small-size sailboat could sail in it
with ease. These lakes have been
completed and are being filled with
water, fed from Bayou St. John.
The cost of constructing the hhes
was in the neighborhood of $30, 1000.

cured by the use Of DR.. Pierces Favorite
Prescription.
1t is worth noting that these cures
are lasting. Many medicines offered for
women's use are mere palliatives. They
numb the nerves and so dull the pairi.
But they do not re-establish the lost
womanly health. wFavorite Prescrip-

disagree with the weakest constitution.
It establishes regularity, dries the drains

ton and liberation and cures female
weakness.
IT IS woMAN'S WAY
to sacrifice herself for her family. She
goes without the new dress that husband
or child may have som coveted pleasure.
And for economy's sake she often bears
the ills which are undermining her
health. It is false economy. The
health of the wife and mother is the
most important factor in the home life,
and every suffering woman who has been
cured by "Favorite Prescription is q
witness to the real economy Of this
means of cure.
uMy health is the best now that it has
been for four years." writes Mrs. Phebe
Morris, Of Ira, Cayuga Co., NY, Boz 81.

promises only happiness ends in disap-
pointment and misery.
This is very true of marriage. The
young wife goes heart and soul into
home making and housekeeping. She
loves to cook and prepare the dainties
her husband enjoys She is so robust
and hearty that she can hardly find
enough to do to exhaust her abundant
energy. That's the way it begins. AZ
ter while she finds that it takes all her
strength to care for her home. Then
household cares begin to overtax her,
and she drops down into chair many
time and gives way to tears because of
her weakness and misery. The sky so
cloudless on the morning of marriage
has soon become overcast.
THE CRITICAL TIME
in many a woman's life comes just at
this period of encouragement and de-
spair She finds indications of disease
Of the delicate womanly organs. Her
women friends perhaps tell her that the
bearing down sensation, the pains in the
back and loins indicate disease or dis
placement. She consults physicians,
takes prescribed treatments, all to no
avail And yet this woman's case is
durable on the evidence of women who
have been cured.
cFour years ago my health began to
fall" writes Mrs. Nellie M. Reycraft,
of Glenwood, Washington Co., Oregon
III had a heavy dragging and weight in
the region of the uterus, pain in back
and loins, could not lift anything heavy,
rest at night very poor; stomach de-
ranged. One physician said was over
worked, another said had conges-
ton and falling of uterus. He treated
me nine months and said would not be
we'll until I had passed the change of
life. l was only twenty-seven years old
then. 1 became discouraged, and began
using DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescription
Took a teaspoonful three times a day;
began feeling better right away. Am
using my third bottle now, and feel am
in good health. DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription has restored me to health.
If suffering women would give it a fair
trial they would give it praise"
1t can truthfully be said that there is
hardly form of womanly disease med
ically durable which will not yield to the
faithful use of uFavorite Prescription"
More than this, it is a matter of record
that many forms of womanly disease pro-
nounced incurable by local physicians
have been perfectly and permanently

That saying seems to have been born
of the superstition deep rooted in hu-

Vie laughs best who laughs last" Per-
haps in these and similar sayings there
is q survival of the old pagan belief that
a display of happiness was likely to in
cur the envy Of the gods and to draw
down the visitation of the malice which
is twin to envy.

Don't let the animals became poor by

A ton of butter taken from the farm
removes scarcely any fertility, while

and a ton of corn about five dollars
worth. Surely, the dairy farm should
improve.
