It is much easier for woman to condde in the average man than in the average woman She knows that the man will re- spect her condolences and keep them to himself He is strong, has nlore experience of the world and can help the woman who needs advice. There is every reason why. women should not trust their delicate, constitutions in the hands of unskiliedI persons. It requires thorough medical, education to appreciate and understand, the womanly organism. When a woman has ills ard pains that she cannot bear, when life seems dark for every woman, she should coufde her troubles to a, physician of standing in the community or one who has national reputation. Ger, tainly it would not be the part Of wi3doml to confde in an ignorant person without! medical education simply because she was c uonsan. There is every reason why she. should write to some great specialist, one, who has made the diseases of women a speciality for a third of century like Dr. R. " Pierce, founder of the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute of Buffalo, N. Y.l All his correspondence is held sacredly com, fdential, and he gives his advice free and' without chlrge.
 So uniformly successful has Dr. Pierce's, Favorite Prescription proven in all forms, of Female Weakness Prolapsus, or Failing of Womb, and Leucorrhea, that, after curing the worst cases of these distressing and' facilitating ailments, Dr. Pierce now feels fully warranted in offering to pay $500 in cash for any case of these diseases which he cannot cure.
 Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets should be used with rFavorite Prescription when ever laxative is required.

 ened in all eases of chronic catarrh. No one can expect to have good health so long as their vitality is sapped away with catarrhal discharges.
 Facial deformities are largely a result of catarrh of the head and throat
 Thus 1t is that women especially dread the ravages of catarrh.
 Catarrh is an insidious disease that si- lently steals away the vitality and grad ualy destroys the symmetry and beauty of the human body.

Secretary of State F. R.

Mir. McDavid Is not only well pleased with the trip and the result of the investigation but quite en- thusiastic on the question of Southern states doing more of this kind of business Alabama sent out of the state for life insurance premiums last year sG.000 900 in round figures, with only a small per cent returning. This money goes out of the south and other than the claims paid never gets back. It is taken to east ern centers and invested at per cent It is argued that if these companies can lean the money for that price the south can do the business as well or much bet ter when there is always opportunity to invest at twice that rate of interest If the Tennessee company continues to make the great success it has so far it will likely lead al the southern states to organize companies.
