MALARIA.

The people who live in low. swampy countries seem to take it for granted that Malaria. Fevers and Ague are nec- essary evils They apparently do not re- slize that these diseases are slowly but surely sapping their general vitality These intermittent fevers, malaria, fever and ague. swamp fever. jungle fever, etc, are the most persistent enemies of the human race. If the aggregate of harm thev do could be realized, they would be fought as plagues
 These diseases are the result of weak ness. of poisoned. microbial blood. and 1t was long ago demonstrated that Dr. liar ter's Iron Tonic was an absolute specific. a sure cure It has been conquring and nreyenting these diseases for nearly half a century. It purifies the blood and drives out the poisons,
 If has been thoroughly demcnstrated that the insects which infest new conn tries and low swampy localities are ye- hicies for carrying disease germs If your blood is pure and healthy you need have little fear of these But if your 5Iood ie had it is not in condition to resist the poisonous stings, and as result the germs of disease obtain a footing
 Protect yourself by using Dr. Harter's Iron Tonic. It will not only drive out hut keep out malaria and other levers of like kind It has done it in so many thousands of cases that you cannot ooubt.

Miss Bob White.

In Marguerite Sylva, Messrs Nixon and Zimmerman have a star worthy that much abused title, for Miss Sylva com pines all the essential qualities necessary to fill the bill to its utmost.

Tim Murphy.

A gentleman wrote the other day to the manager of the theatre where MT. Tim othy Murphy was playing and, in the course of an appreciative criticism of the entertainment. said: Though it may have occurred to others. never until tonight, sitting before "A Capitol Comedy have I seen so strongly impressed with strik- ing possibility of the stage; how nearly akin to actual travel is the opportunity to see some plays. It did not seem to me that I was in the theatre. For nearly three hours I was in Washington. Putting aside the interest of the st ory and the humor of the characters there was an atmos- pheric reality that made the places actual. the people actual, the situation actual. No one on the spot could get better idea of the busy corridors without the Senate chamber than by MT. Murphy's remarkable stage management of the third act of A Capitol Comedy What pleasure the theatre could be made If other actors and authors had the talent to place tlIeir story somewhere instead of anywhere, and thus give the evening all the pleasant advantages of a visit to the spot
 This realistic touch which is spoken of came naturally into "A Capitol Comedy" for both MT. Murphy and the author MT. Paul Wilstach, are Washingtonians The characters and incidents and character istics which give the pretty play one of its chief charms were not invented--they were merely transplanted from the floor of the Senate, the corridors of the Capitol,

ONE ON. THE 6oYs.' Mother Rather Got the Start of Them.


 Sometimes the mother plays a turn on the young people and greatly to their benefit. A young lady in Memphis, Tenn, Miss V. Dye or 222 Carroll Ave, com ments in an interesting way about the harmless little deception her mother played upon one of the family during the sum mer.
 She says, "Every member of our fam ily could write testimonial about Pos tum Food Coffee and what 1t has done for us. Father has really been made over since quitting coffee and using Pos tum, but I must tell your about brother.
 When he came home from college last summer he was thin and looked dread fully. We questioned him about his food and drink He said he drank coffee, Of course I can't get along without a good cup of coffee three times a day Moth CT did not say anything to him. but made Postum for him just the same. and at the next meal he complimented her on the coffee. Several times he said Now if I just had such coffee as this nt school I could make better averages in my studies.
 So during the whole summer he drank Postum, thinking 1t was strong coffee. and we could all see, from day to day how much he was improving in health His. complexion gradually cleared up and he gained in every way. When he went back in the fall mother t61d him the secret she had kept for over three months and put several packages of Postum in his trunk.
 You may depend upon it. the lesson was one he will never forget. My young. CT brother quit coffee about a year ago and has been using Postum Food Coffee and he has been built up from a reg ular invalid until he is now a fat. rosy checked boy, full of life and fun. Just the other day he remarked he was get ting along so much better in his studies than ever before and he wondered what caused the change. Mother remarked, 1t is Postumte"

FRIGHTENED
The Agony Endured by
 Nervous Women.

My nerves are all unstrung" is the expressive way in which a woman IS apt to describe a condition of extreme nervousness. The fgurative expression Sunstrung" may be unscientifc but 1t pathetically suggests the grand harp of the nervous system, strung and keyed for harmonies by its Maker, now become SO unstrug that it gives out nothing but jarring discords. Nervous people rarely receive the sympathy which is their due.
 The dropping of book which causes the nervous woman to start, or the slam ming of a door which causes her to scream, are sounds which do not jar the

 suffering. The extent of this
 suffering may be gathered from Mrs. Nelson's experience told in the letter given below. She says, " z0ds SO ner7'- ous Uat hae least ktfng o0Htd starfIe me akmost into coEvnIsfons." Such con- dition of nervousness generally indicates wonanly diseases. It is useless to at- tempt to cure nervousness by the use of narcotics.
 NARCOTICS ARE DEADLY
 for the nervous woman whose need IS not to make the nerves sleep but to make them strong, not to numb them but to nourish them. The best med1- cine for nervous women is Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It cures nervous ness because it cures the causes which are behind nervousness. It establishes regularity, dries the drains wkich under mine the health and strength, heals inflammation and alteration and cures female weakness. It makes weak women strong and sick women well.
 uDr. Pierce's medicines are the best have ever used" writes Mrs. C. Nelson, of Chemawa, Marion Co.,, Oregon. My health was badly run down when I con- suited him by letter. My limbs were cold and my head hurt me continually. I was so nervous that the least thing would startle me almost into convul- sions. had palpitation of the heart so bad that I could scarcely walk some times. I felt utterly discouraged, but two bottles of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Pre- scription and one of Golden Medical Discovery made a new woman out of me. We are never without Dr. Pierce's Pellets in the house,
 Nothing is claimed for Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription but is claimed for It by the women who have been cured by its use. Behind every claim is a eure-yes, a thousand cures. In fact,

All correspond ence is strictly private and the written condolences of women are treated with the same privacy observed by Dr. Pierce in verbal consultations with women at the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Insti- tute, Buffalo, N. Y Address Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y.
 Because Dr. Pierce's offer is free 1t is not be classed with those offers of cf1ee medI1at 1dS:ce made by men or women who have neither the legal nor the pro- fessiona1 right to practice medicine. If they dared to put out their signs with the title Doctor upon them, the law would instantly deal with them. They don't dare to do this, and yet, though without medical training, medical knowledge or medical experience, they cunnipgly offer vfree medical advice.n The law can't touch that claim because anyone can give free advice on any subject, but woman knows that the advice of her 1aundress is perfectly worthless as to the cutting and fitting of her gown.
 In consulting with Dr. Pierce, women not only consult with real doctor, but one who is specialist Ill the treatment and cure of diseases peculiar to women, and who, assisted by his staff of nearly score of physicians, has in little more than thirty years treated and cured hun dreds of thousands of women.
