She Suffered for Years and

MFRS. ANNA B. FLEHARTY, recent
!VA Superintendent Of tho w. @. II. u.
headquarters, ut Galesburg, ILL.,, was for
, ten years ono of tho leading women there.
Her husband, when living, was first
President of the Nebraska Wesleyan
| University, ut Lincoln, Neb.
In letter written from 4o1 Sixty
seventh street, W., Chicago, ILL.,, Mrs.
Fleharty says the following in regard to
Peruna:
"Having lived o very active life as wife
and working partner Of IL busy minister,
my health failcd mo fow years ago. I
lost my husband about the samo time,
and gradually I socmcd to loso health
and spirit. My daughter is q confirmed
Invalid, and we both felt great need of
Oh invigorator.
"One of my neighbors advised me
TO try fHeIuna. A bottle was junediafe-
" secureds and a great change took
place In my daughters as well as In
my own health. Our aPpefifes I'M
proved very greatly, the digestion

| What used to be called fomale diseases
by tho medical profession is now called
pelvic catarrh. It Has been found by
experience that catarrhal diseases of the
+, pelvic organs arc tho cause Of most cases
Of female disease.
DR.. Hartman was among tho first of
Americas great physicians to make this
! discovery. For forty yoars ho has been
treating diseases peculiar to women, and
long ago ho reached tho conclusion that
woman entirely free from catarrhal
affection Of these organs would not be
subject to female disease. He therefore
began using Pcruna for these cases and
found it Sc admirably adapted to their
permanent cure that Pcruna has now
become tho most famous remedy for
female diseases over known. Every
where tho women arc using it and prais-
ing it. Peruna is not a palliative SIM
ply; it cures by removing the Cause of
female disease. -
Dr@93idrtman has probably cured more
women of female ailmonts than any
other living physician. He makes these
cures simply by using and recommend

MILL MAN ON COTTON.

A prominent New England mil
man said on the 17th ult., in an in
terv;ow which is being quoted by tho
papers, under dispatch from Now
York:
eff anyone tells you that frost vii
:. now Eurt this years cotton crop you
may set it down that he knows moth
ing about cotton. The crop is too
far advanced. In four weeks We
shall hear nothing about the scarcity
of cotton. Receipts will be heavie,
than ever in history.
"Sully's bet that this coantrv will
not raise II 100000 bales of cotton
during any year OF the next five is
tho most absurd I ever heard.
"Tho consumption of cotton in this
country, with hundreds of mills sim
down because they are not willing t.
pay the prevailing prices for raw cot
ton, will be smaller this year than i
has been in any Of tho past three
Next year is n presidential year, on'
no mill man is going to take chances
and stock up ahead"
We suppose this is why the price
continues to drop down These Nev
England mill men have it in thci
head there will be another big crol
raised this year, and will again bt
left; the Southern mills will take
every pound thoy can get, at what
ever prico they can get it at, and bt
running for the next twelve months
on full time, while tho Northern mil
men will have to run on short time
pay big price, or shut down alto
gether.
The cotton crop Of the cotton bel
is at least third short, and it vii
be found out after the season is over
The producer will find that he hns
acted wisely, if he will hold a portion
tf his crop for spring delivery
March and April cotton is always
high.

1t is a great convenience to have
at hand reliable remedies for use in
cases Of accident and for slight injuries
and ailments. A good liniment and one
that is fant becoming favorite if not a
household necessity is Chamberlain's
Pain Balm. BY applying it promptly to
a cut, bruise or burn it allays the pain
and causes the injury to heal i'll about
one third the time usually required, and
as it is antiseptic it prevents any danger
of blood poisoning. When Pain BALM is
kept on hand a sprain may be treated
before inflammation sets in, which insures

A Recent Visit to Cateechee Was One
OF Interest.


Before mentioning what is going
on there, however, [ take occasion
to observe that before tho Norris
Mill was built there, the commu>
nifty was seemingly without spirit
or life to do. There we're no ade>
quate roads, there was no market
for perishable products, tkere were
no croditable values Oh lands,
The people populating this vicinity
are OF an order, from which springs
activity, enterprise and restless
success, as soon as they are touched
by the progressive spirit of the
times. The building Of this mill
created all that was needed to
awaken them TO the possibilities of
thelr opportunities, and tho result
after six years Is marvellous
What was q backward section at
that time has been metamorphised
into one Of progressive enhance,
mont in values in every concoiva-
bio direction. Farms have trcbled
in value, splendid roads have
been built, markets furnished for
everything grown on the farms
school facilities doubled, but above
all the diffusion Of spirit of prog.
ress which most certainly leads to
a conoition Of prosperity. Of higher

MISSING PEOPLE
The Friends of Frank E. Duffy Uneasy
 About Him.

Inquiry is being made for Frank F. Duffy, whose home is in New York He was seen last Friday morning :n this city and has not been seen since. This inquiry is made by his friends, who are uneasy about him. It was sus- pectcd that he might be the man who committed suicide at the Vendome last Friday night or Saturday. But an ex. animation of the body of the suicide which is still at the undertakers yes terday proved that he was not the man. That man, too, was last seen some time last Friday. Duffy is about five feet seven inches tall, smooth snaven, some- times wears glasses, has gray hair and weighs about 140 pounds. When he was last seen he was wearing a dark suit, black overcoat and had on q black soft hat. He is about forty years old. Any information about him may be left at the office of the sheriff.
 Inquiry has also been made through the office of The Republican by ". F. Conant of Peoria. Ill.,, about Mrs. Al berta Brown. q sister of the inquirer. He says she lives in Phoenix and he has written to her frequently. He has ascertained in some way that there is q letter for her now in the Phoenix post office. MT. Conant adds that it is very important that he be put in conmuni- cation with his sister.

the EL Dorado country about forty miles from Kingman towards the Col orado river, says the. Prescott Journal Miner
 MT. BrOokhouse was seen by Jour- nal Miner man this morning and said as near as he could get at the truth of the matter was that a Mexican who had been prospecting with his brother in the above section, had discovered ledge of quartz and on breaking piece of the quartz off the ledge it was founi to sparkle with free gold. A few shots were put in and the ore grew richer at every foot. Work was kept up for few days until one of the Mexieans had to come to Kingman for supplies and brought some of the ore with him. When he showed the ore, which had free gold sticking out all over it in large chunks. the whole town of King man stampeded like cattle and within q few hours everybody who could get hold Of a horse burro, or any other means of travelling. was on the way to the scene of the rich strike. The rush began Monday afternoon and no furth- CT information had been received from any one when Mir. Brookhouse left Kingman.

The popular idea expressed in the phrase, uthe art of self-defense," shows the opinion that the chief enemies man has to defend himself from are visible and external But the real danger of every man is from minute and often in- visible foes In the air we breathe and Ire water we drink are countless minute organisms leagued agoinst the health of the body.
 The one defense against these enemies is to keep the blood pure. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery thoroughly purifies the blood, removing poisonous substances and accretions. When the blood is pure there is no harborage for tkc germs of disease which fii:d a lodg- ing only when the blood is impure aud corrupt.
