A Woman's Wealth.
Paine'S
Compound
GIVES VIG0R AND
STRENGTH TO DEBILITATED AND
RUN DOWN WOMEN.

II is maintained by many distinguished
writers that the greatness of a nation depends
much upon the physical condition Of its
women. The general conditions which con-
tribute to health and long life, are those which
do not imply rapid and unequal exhaustion
of those powers by which life is maintained.
While we assert that the women Of our land
stand peerless for beauty and the virtues that
make them lovable, we cannot hide the fact
that there are thousands in our midst who,
owing to overwork, worry, household cares,
and an unequal exhaustion OF life power, have
become weak, nervous, sleepless, and debili'
tated.
We bring to the attention of all weary,
respondent, hopeless, and sicky women

EelS For Everybody.


Most remarkable catches Of cells
have been made the past week in the
Potomac river. Those who have
shares in the pots have caught more
cells than they know what to do with
and the sport has been great. The
rain last Thursday raised the river
Just enough and made it sufficiently
muddy for good running among the
cells. The way they shot into the
fshpots was astounding as they hur'
ried along before the gale. At the
fshpot near the cement mill about
1000 were caught in FIVE nights, the
biggest catch being $50 in one night.
Robert Lemen caught $50 one night
in his fshpot above town. 1t is said
that twelve bushels were caught one
night in pot near Williamsport.

Getting Rich On Ginseng.

Jonathan Butts Of Shepherdstown,
has been making big money the past
month or two gathering ginseng roots.
1t is said that there is ginseng in al
most every woods in this part of the
country, and the shadier it is the bet
ter it thrives Robert g. Miller buys
it, and pays $l.62 a pound for the
roots just as they come from the
ground. Monday Mr. Butts gathered
something over three pounds, and his
day work Melted him over five dol
lars. Some time since he struck a
fine patch OF ginseng in piece of
woods on the Maryland side Of the
river, and by four o'clock he had a
bag of it which he sold for $ll10.
1t was his biggest day. The ginseng
is sold in China, where che celestials
regard it as the biggest thing on earth
in the way of medicine. Mr.. Miller
has started an experiment to see if he
can grow the stuff, and has planted a
lot Of it in his garden in this place.
It requires patience, for the seed do
not sprout until eighteen months af-
ter they are planted, and it takes four
or five years more for the roots to get
to marketable size. The season to
dig ginseng roots extends from about
the first of September until frost kills
the tops.
