He was at his place of business chatting with some ot his friends as lively as usual not two hours before his death. In fact, he told his wife that, with the excep- tlon of weakness, he felt better than usual. His wife went down to the store about half past eight or nine o'cloeK end he went back to the house with her and remark ed that if he had waited little longer he would not have made it back home.

uPain in the head and back is a form
of suffering with which so 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 womanly function,
or a diseased condition of the delicate
womanly organs.
In such cases the action of DR.. 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
all other means nave been tried In vain.

ence is held as strictly private and
sacredly confidential. Address DR.. r. V.

DANISH WEST INDIAN VOTE.
Trouble Feared if Negroes Are Barred
from PIebiscite.

NEW YORK, May 1.-THE st. Thomas,
d. w. L., correspondent Of the Commercial
Advertiser says: NOW that it has finally
been determined to postpone ratification of
the Danish West Indian transfer treaty
until after a plebiscite. everything is quiet.
and general satisfaction with the decision
of the Landsthing is manifest. A question
which it is feared will cause trouble is
whether the negroes will be allowed to
vote. The population of the West Indies is
composed of three classes-the plantation
owners and the officials, the foreigners en-
gagged in the shipping business, and, finally,
the native negro lement. Only the whites
and those of the foreigners being subjects
of the King of Denmark are entitled to a
vote for the colonial council. When, how
ever, in 1867, the islanders. by a large vote.
declared in favor of annexation to the
United States, no such restrictions were
made. The whole male population, with a
few exceptions, were allowed the privilege
of voting, and some here argue that such
a policy should be carried out now. Their
argumen is that it is not a question this
time of Danish citizenship, but the broader
one OF the future of the islands, in which
all islanders, irrespective of color and ma
tionaltty, have a vital interest.
THE official class desire TO restrict the
voting privilege with the idea that in so
doing they may be able to show to Dem
mark that the population is against the
sale, in which case they would be con-
tinued in office. The negroes are not par
ticularly interested in Danish politics., but
in this case they are much incensed at the
possibility that they may be excluded from
the voting privilege, and threaten serious
trouble.
The question as to who will be allowed
TO vote may be decided by the Ministry in
conjunction with the Rigsdag. The Folke-
thing will have the most weight i'm the
decision. The Folkething is also over
whelmingly in favor of the transfer, and
il is therefore. to be presumed thai it will
construe the franchise privilege in the most
liberal manner. Moreover, there is no
prejudice in Copenhagen against the ne
groes. as there is on the islands. The
plebisCite, according to the decision Of the
Landsthing, will take place as soon as
practicable;' which means that il will not
take place until fall, for in the summer the
people are busy on the plantations"

BELIEVES IN OSTEOPATHY

Leading Citizen of indianapolis.

Yes. 1 am a confirmed believer in oste-
opathy," said Prof. Ayres to a reporter the
other day.
For eight years 1 experimental with
drugs, consulted specialists and exhausted
all available means without benefit. Friends
became alarmed and prevailed upon me 10
try osteOpathy. l began treatment OF DIT.
J. f. ~Spaunhurst, one OF the most sk1liful
O%steopathists in the United States. Five
treatments removed all symptoms OF ASth-
ma. Smell, taste and appetite are restored.
Asthma and Catarrh Of head and digestive
tract are cured. Not a p in nineteen
months. In three months L gained thirty
two pounds, and old friends fail TO recog-
fected. DR.. -Spaunhurst is persistent, pains
taking, conscientious, and he is certainly
bringing JOY and relief to many abandoned,
so-caled incurables."
Jno. NJ. Whitney, $50 Douglass street,
foreman Of Brewer & Love Bros. cotton
mills since it's establishment, said:
A little over a year ago L had given up
all hope after ~exhausting all medical
means. l was persuaded by my sister to try
Dr. S~paunhurStS treatment. / received ben
eft from the beginning, and my ecovery
was so rapid that it surprised myself as
well as friends. l gained fourteen pounds in
a short time and soon resumed my work,
which L have continued steadily for over a
year. My combined maladies-catarrh of
stomach, numbness in legs, constipation,
rheumatism and jaundice-are cured per-
manently and l have no h~esitancy in saying
that L owe my escape from Crown Hill to
DR.. Sp%aunhurst."
Throw aside all narrow prejudices, look
at these facts with simple justice. In the
light of these plain, truthful statements
