woman, suffering from female weakness,
prolapsus, or falling of womb, or from leu
corrhea who has used DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription without complete success, the
proprietors of that medicine would like to
hear from such person-and it will be to
her advantage to write them as they offer,
in perfect good faith, a reward of $500
for any case of the above maladies which
they cannot cure. No other medicine for
woman's ills is possessed of the unpara1-
leled curative properties that would war
rant its makers In making such an offer
Mr.. J. M. Johnson, of Blackstone, Va. Box 81,
writes: 1--WE heartily congratulate the wonder
full discoverer of the great family medicines put
up in your laboratory. My wife has been more
than once almost brought from the grave by
using DR.. P1erce's great remedies There is
nothing better for female troubles than the
Favorile Prescription, nothing better for con-
stipation than DIR. Pierce's little Pellets; and
excelled by anything for heart trouble, of which
we have used with great benefit more than once"
When the druggist says he has some
thing that is as good as DR.. Pierce's Favor
ite Prescription, just tell him, uThere's
nothing just as good" He says so because
he hopes to make better profit but his
own mixtures have not stood the test of
long experience and success that Doctor
Pierce's medicines have Then too many
patent medicines advertised as tonics, con-
tain large quantities of alcohol DR. Pierce
guarantees that his Prescription does
not contain a particle of alcohol
1t is good thing to keep DR.. Pierce's
Pleasant Pellets in the house. One Pellet
is laxative, two mild cathartic.

" WEEDS

Consumption is a human
weed Aourishing best in weak
lungs. Like other weeds it's
easily destroyed while young;
when old, sometimes I'M
possible.
Strengthen the lungs as you
would weak land and the
weeds will disappear.
The best lung fertilizer IS
SCOTS Emulsion. Salt pork
is good too, but it is very hard
to digest.
The time to treat consump-
ton is when you begin trying
to hide it from yourself.
Others see it, you won't.
Don't wait until you can't
deceive yourself any longer.
Begin with the first thought
to take SCOTS Emulsion. If
it isn't really consumption SO
much the better; you will soon
forget it and be better for the
treatment. If it is consump-
ton you can't expect to be @
cured at once, but if you will
begin in time and will be
rigidly regular in your treat
ment you will win.
SCOTS Emulsion, fresh air
rest all you can, eat all you
can, that's the treatment and
that's the best treatment.

But, as a matter of fact his business owns
him. His whole life is regulated by the de-
mands of the business. The time at which
he rises, his breakfast hour, the time given
to meals, are all determined by business obll-
cations. He rushes through lunch because
he .'can't spare the time from business TO
eat leisurely. He won't take rest because
he is needed at the store or office. He is in

foil enough to cover them all.
1t was a novel covering that the

caught the eye and fancy, and in the
course of a year or two this custom of
covering gas fixtures at this season
With tin foil came to be the one COM
monty observed; and foil covered gas
fixtures We're to be seen i'll many places.
The tin foil manufacturers saw a
chance for them in the observance of
this custom, and they began putting
up tin foil that is especially de-
signed for his use. and that is called
chandelier foil
Chandelier foil comes In packages of
one pound each, such package being of

be enough for - number of buckets.

is smooth instead of wrinkled, as tine
