WOMAN'S WARS.

In her woman's heart was a poem,
A grand and tender song,
A word of hope for the weary,
stern rebuke to the wrong:
1t often pleaded for utterance,
For voice to reach the world,
To be raised where all might heed it,
| A banner of love unfurled!
But she never found the moment,
With days so full of care,
To breath out the burning heart words
OF her poem nestling there.
There were always household duties,
Dull rounds for every day,
And just before step by step,
Some task unfinished lay.
Her children grew up and blessed her,
And honored her sainted name;
She had guided their childish footsteps,
But she had missed the road to fame:
From the many snares and pitfalls
Along the youthful way
Her watchful eye had saved them;
Not one had wandered astray.
The good angel wrote down her life
work
A pure and shining page.
More sweet than dreams of a poet.
More grand than seer or sage;
She had met each homely duty
Striving not for earth's renown
Her life was poem of beauty,
Her reward in heaven-a crown.
Fault-fnding is a good deal like
the drink habit. Once begun in a
family. it is very easy to continue,
and very difficult to arrest ones self.
But we believe more families have
been wrecked by fault finding than by
drink. 1t is hard to decide which of
these two vices is the greatest enemy
to happy home.
We sometimes wonder if our readers
We believe in time it will have an
influence for good in any community.
1t cannot fail in measure at least, to
mould the character of those who
weekly read it. If our readers appre
ciate it they should not be backward
in giving to us an encouraging word.
If you can make any suggestions
whereby we can improve upon this
feature we would be pleased to listen
to them. Our only aim and object is
to give our readers just the kind of
reading they most relish and at the
same time be outspoken on the side of
good morals and good homes. If you
enjoy this department of our paper,
in your own way and manner make
the fact known to US. A little en-
couragement from subscribers is
great tonic for the weary editor.
Our readers all doubtless have a de-
sire to be happy and are ever watching
for the road to happiness. You have
doubtless had many roads to happiness
pointed out to you. The young as
we'll .as the old have their dark days
The days in May time of life are just
as cloudy as in life's November. The
grandmother and granddaughter
breathe the same deep sigh. 1t is a
false idea that we are happier in child
hood and youth than we will ever be
again. If we live right the older We
get the happier we are. AS you ad-

A mothers love starts man or woman
on the right path. The right remedy at
the right time fits mother for the ordeal.
Motherhood is often looked forward to
with feelings of great dread by most wom-
en-. AT such a time when she is nervous,
dyspeptic, irritable and in need of a uterine
tonic-something which will calm the nerv-
GUS system through the special organs, and
strength builder, she will find DR.. Pierce s
Favorite Prescription just what is needed
Here is a medicine that has stood the test
of third of a century with approval, in
that time it has sold more largely than any
other remedy put up specially for woman's s
weaknesses. 1t is guaranteed by the pro-
prietors not to contain particle of alcohol
which could only do harm to sensitive
system.
The Worlds Dispensary Medical Associa-
ton, of Buffalo, N. Y, proprietors of Dr.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription, offer $500
reward for women who cannot be cured of
Leucorrhea, Female Weakness, Prolapsus,
or Falling of Womb. All they ask is a fair
and reasonable trial of their means of cure.

supation, biliousness and headache.
