tries" This case was laid before the

CHEERFUL WOMEN.
How to Keep Happy.

IN ESPONDENCY is thing OF evil
origin and evil results. Worry
- produces nothing but wrinkles
and wretchedness. Let the
reader put up little note on her bureau,
on her desk, and at the head OF her bed
just two words, DON'T WORRY. Worry
is the greatest foe 10 the happiness OF
any household. An anxious. despond-
ent face, a fretful, complaining voice,
will make every one uncomfortable.
A woman's nerves are more truly the
cause OF worry than outside troubles.
The nerves are to wonan's body The
telegraph system. which surely warns her
OF any trouble in the feminine makeup.
WHY WOMEN HAVE NERVES
What is the reason why women have
nerves When our thoughts begin TO
grow cloudy and uncertain, our inn
pulses lag and the warnings of pain
and distress are sent like flying mes
sages throughout our limbs and frame,
We straightway. nine times in ten, lay
the cause of the trouble 10 some defect
in the point where we first feel IT, Is
II a headache, backache, sensation
of irritability or twitching and uncop-
uOildDlc UcINOuSUcSS, something must
be wrong with the head or back.
woman naturally says, but all the time
the real trouble very often centers in
the won1anly organs. In nire cases out
of ten the seat of the difficulty is here,
and a woman should take rational treat
ment for its cure. The loc.1 disorder
and Inflammation of the delicate special
organs of the sex should be treated
steadily and systernaticallv.r
DR.. Pierce, during a long period of
practice, found that a prescription made
up entirely of roots and herbs, without
the use of alcohol, cured over ninety
per cent. of such cases. After using this
remedy for many years in his private
practice he put 1t up IN a form that
would make II easily procurable, and il /
can be had at any store where medicines
are handled.
