catarrh Causes Female Diseases.

America is the land of nervous women.
The great majority of nervous women
are SO because they are suffering from
some form of female disease. BY far
the greatest number Of female troubles
are caused directly by catarrh. These
women despair of recovery. Female
trouble is so common, SO prevalent,
that they accept it as almost inevitable
The greatest obstacle in the way of re-
covery is that they do not understand
that it is catarrh which is the source
of their illness.

The New Cup Challenger.

The English people are very persist
ent in their efforts to recapture the
cup which the Americans have held
for so many years. Another attempt
is to be made in the summer. and to
that end a new challenger is being
built, which is claimed will have
more speed than those used in the
past. The result will be watched with
considerable interest by both sides.
There has also been much interest
manifested by the public in the mar
velons success made by the celebrat-
ed Hostetter's Stomach Bitters during
the past fifty years. 1t has establish
ed record of cures unequalled by
any other remedy of such ailments as

a sufferer, we urge you to try bottle

It is great affiiction for a woman to
have her face disfgured by pimples or
any form of eruptiye disease. 1t makes
her morbid and sensitive, and robs her
OF social enjoyment. Disfguring erup-
tions are caused by impure blood, and
are entirely cured by the great blood
purifying medicine-Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery. 1t removes from the
blood the poisonous impurities which
cause disease. 1t perfectly and perman-
emily cures scrofulous sores, eczema,
letter, boils, pimples and other eruptive
diseases which are caused by the blood's
impurity. It increases the action of
the blood-making glands and thus in
creases the supply of pure rich blood.
