Girls With
Beautiful Faces, or
Graceful Figures.

iIFRE55F55SSl MERICAN girls have "a
8 !: !
INHM @ worldwide reputation for
W E @l beauty, but, at the same
lW nm @ time, there are girlsin Our
lk IA Ml cities who possess neither
ley%M N beauty of face nor form,
t..s1esssss=9sGzl because in these instances
they suffer from nervous
ness, the result of disorders of the won1-
anly organism. At regular intervals
they suffer so much that their strength
leaves them; they are so Frustrated that
it takes days for them to recover their
strength. Of course, such periodic dis
tress has its bad effect on the nervous
system. The withered and drawn faces,
the dark circles and crows-feet over the
eyes, the straight figure without those
curves which lend so much to feminine
beauty, are the unnlistakable signs Of
womanly disorders. The young girl
should study how to make herself more
attractive; how to overcome those bodily
ills that pull her down. Mrs. Langtry
has we'll said: vThe keystone to physical
beauty is perfect health, A sick woman
cannot be beautiful woman, nor can
she be anything but what we English
call poor-spirited woman To great
extent woman's beauty is measured by
her vitality-by her health" A famous
specialist in woman's diseases, Dr.. r. v.
Pierce, Of Buffalo, N. Y, has always adj
vocated for young women's happiness
absolute freedom from care and anxiety;
at least eight hours sleep out of every
twenty-four, in addition a short nap in
the middle of the day,if possible. Simple
indoor exercises or brisk walks in the
outdoor air. For some this is impossi-
Bile, and many are confined to contin-
ual indoor life because of disease of the
wolnanly organs. To these is offered
$500 reward if they cannot be cured of
Leucorrhea, Female Weakness, Prolap-
sns, or Falling of Womb. All Doctor
Pierce asks is a fair and reasonable
trial of his means of cure.
No other medicine for the cure of
woman's peculiar ailments is backed BY
such a remarkable guarantee as Doctor
Pierce's Favorite Prescription No other
medicine for woman's ills is possessed of
the unparalleled curative properties that
would warrant its makers in publishing
such an offer; no other remedy has such
a record of third of century of cures
on which to base such remarkable
offer @
There is every reason why women
should not trust their delicate constitu-
tons In the hands of unskilled persons.

attempted bribery in connection with

Gladstone. Mich. Dec. 1.-THE drilling
of a second well will soon be started by
the Cream City Development company, a
Milwaukee concern, on it's property at
Rapid River, where the first strike Of oil
ever made in northern Michigan occurred
recently. A derrick and trestle are being
erected at a point 700 feet from the first
we'll, and when these are constructed bor-
ing will at once be started.
The first we'll the capacity of which as
yet is unknown, having been plugged
when the oil was tapped, will go into COM
mission as soon as the storage tanks,
pumping machinery, and pipe line to the
railroad, a mile distant, are ready for
service. Estimates Of its productivity run
all the way up to 800 barrels day.
Since the discovery of oil, which at
first was. not popularity credited, leases on
lands for miles around have been taken
principally . by the Milwaukee company
and to- date contracts covering more than
1O,0 600 acres have been filed in the office OF
the register of deeds of Delta county.
