A Wonderful Invention.

1t is interesting to note that for
tunes are frequently made by the
invention of articles of minor import
ance. Many of the most popular
devices are those designed to benefit
the people and meet popular condi-
tions, and one of the most interesting
of these that has ever been invented
is the DR.. White Electric Comb,
natented Jan. l, '99. These wonder
ful Combs positively cure dandruff,
hair falling out, sick and nervous
headaches, and when used with DR..
Whites Electric Hair Brush are posi-.
lively guaranteed to make straight
hair curly in rs days time. Thous
ands of these electric combs have been
sold in various cities of the Uuion,
and the demand is constantly increas.
Ing. Our agents are rapidly becom-
ing rich selling these combs. They
positively sell on sight. Send for
sample. Mems size 35c. ladies' 5Oc.-

There wasn't much excuse for lower

The healthy old man wears his gray

fire in his eye, firmness in his step,
Command in his voice and wisdom In
his counsel? He commands love and
reverence. Yet how few wear the
mantle of age with dignity. Dim
eyed, querulous of speech, halting in
step, childish In mind, they "lay
Superfluous on the STAGE" dragging
out the flag end Of life in simple
existence. The secret Of a healthy
old age is healthy middle age. The
man who takes care of his stomach,
who keeps his body properly nourished,
will find that the body does not fail

DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis

working power Of the stomach and

bones, phosphates for the brain and

MOTHERHOOD j;

The first lesson that the young girl has
of womanhood is usually a painful one.
She learns to know what headache means,
and backache, and sometimes is sadly
borne down by this new experience of life.
All the pain and misery which young
girls commonly experience at such time
may, in almost every instance, be entirely
prevented or cuyed by the use of Doctor
Pierce's Favorite Prescription. 1t estab-
fishes regularity. 1t tones up the general
health, and cures headache, backache,
nervousness and other consequences of
womanly weakness or disease.
The anxious mother of the family often
times carries the whole burden of RESPONSE
bility so far as the home medication of
common ailments of the girls or boys are
concerned. The cost of the doctors visits
is very often much too great At such
times the mother is invited to write to DR..
K. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, n. Y, for medical
advice, which is given free. Correspond
ence is held strictly confidential.
Backed up by over a third of century
OF remarkable and uniform cures, a record
such as no other remedy for the diseases
and weaknesses peculiar to women ever
attained, the proprietoTs and makers of DR..
Pierce's FavoTite Prescription now feel
fully warranted in offering to pay $500 in
legal money of the United States for any
case of Leucouhea, Female Weakness, Pro-
lapsus, OF Falling of Womb, which they
cannot cure. All the Worlds Dispensary
Medical Association, Proprietors, Of Buff
falo, N. Y, ask is a fair and reasonable
trial Of their means Of cure.
