Cured in the city of New York on

The Farmers Wife

Is very careful about her churn. She
scalds it thoroughly after using, and gives
it sun bath to sweetep it. She knows
that if her churn is sour it will taint the
butter that is made in it. The stomach is
a churn. In the stomach and digestive
and nutritive tracts are performed pro-
cesses which are exactly akin to the
churning of butter. Is it not apparent
then that if this stomach churn is foul it
makes foul all which is put into it?
The evil of foul stomach is not alone
the bad taste in the mouth and the foul
breath caused by it, but the corruption of
the pure current of blood and the disSem-
ination of disease throughout the body.
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery
makes the sour and foul stomach sweet.
1t does for the stomach what the washing
and sun bath do for the churn-abSolutely
removes every tainting or corrupting ele-
ment. In this way it cures blotches,
pimpleS, eruptions, scrOfulous swellings,
sores, or open eating ulcers and all
humors or diseases arising from bad blood.
If you have bitter, nasty, foul taste in
your mouth, coated tongue, foul breath,
are weak and easily tired, feel depressed
and respondent, have frequent headaches,
dizzy attacks, gnawing or distress in stom-
ach, constipated or irregular bowels, sour
or bitter risings after eating and poor
appetite, these symptoms, or any consider
able number of them, indicate that you are
suffering from biliousness, torpid, or lazy
liver with the usual accompanying indi-
gestion, or dyspepsia and their attendant
arrangements.
The best agents known to medical sci
ence for the cure of the above symptoms
and conditions, as attested by the writings
of leading teachers and practitioners OF
have been skillfully and harmoniously
combined in Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery. That this is absolutely true
will be readily proven to your satisfaction
If you will but mail postal card request
to Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, n. Y, for
a free copy of his booklet of extracts from
the standard medical authorities, giving
the names of all the ingredients entering
into his world-famed medicines and show
ing what the most eminent medical men
of the age say Of them.

MRS. JEFF DAVIS -
HAS PASSED AWAY
Widow of distinguished Confed.
crate Answers Death'S Call.
RELIGIOUS RITES WERE GIVEN
Soon After the Clergyman Left Mrs.
Davis Became Unconscious and So
Remained Until the End-Pneu-
mona Was Cause of Her Death.

New York, Oct. 17.-Mrs. Jeffer-
son Davis, widow of the president of
the COnfederacy, who had been i'll
for week at the Hotel Majestic, in
this city, died at 1925 o'clock Tues
day night.
Death was due to pneumonia in
duced by a severe cold which Mrs.
Davis contracted upon her return
from the Adirondacks where she had
spent the summer months.
Although grave fears were felt from
the first, Mrs. Davis wonderful vi
tality which brought her safely
through a similar attack a year ago
gave hopes of ultimate recovery until
for the worse was evident and the
attending physicians announced that
the end was near. 1t was then be-
lieved that Mrs. Davis could not sur
vive the night, but she rallied slight
ly during the early hours of Tuesday.
Shortly after o'clock in the morn
ing she had a similar spell, and Rev.
Nathan A. Seagle, rector of St.
Stephens Protestant Episcopal church,
was hurriedly summoned to give re-
ligious comfort to the patient in her
last moments of consciousness The
clergyman remained some time, and
an hour later it was announced that
Mrs. Davis had lapsed into state of
coma. The period of unconscious
ness continued to the end.
At the bedside when death came
were Mrs. J Addison Hayes of New
ark, N. j., the only surviving daugh-
ter of Mrs. Davis; Jefferson Davis
Hayes, a grandson, who is a student
at Princeton university; Mrs. Charles
e. BatesOn, a niece; DR.. and Mrs.
Gustav Webb, the latter a grand
j daughter, and DR.. Robert H. Wylie,
who With Dr.. Webb, had cared for
Mrs Davis throughout her illness.
j. Addison Hayes, husband of Mrs.
Davis, only living child, had been
I summoned from Colorado Springs and
was hurGE.ng across the continent,
when me<.age announcing Mrs. Da-
Wis death intercepted him.
Mrs. Davis has for some years
made her home in this city, where
she had a wide circle of friends.
Throughout her illness. solicitous in
quiries regarding her condition were
| continually made at her apartments.
Definite plans for the funeral had
not been made, but it is understood
that services will be held here by her
pastor, and it is definitely known that
the body will repose beside that of the
late president of the Confederacy in
Richmond.
At the Majestic hotel it was said

The story Of an ravent,on.

The pewer loom was the invention OF
farmers boy, who had never seen or
heard of such d thing lie fashioned
one with bis penknife. and when he got
II all done he showed 1t with great en-
thusiasm to bis father. who at once
kicked It all to pieces, saying he would
have no boy about him who would
spend bis time on such foolish things.
The boy was sent 10 blacksmith to
learn d trade, and his master took a
lively interest In him. lie made a
loom of what was left Of the one his
father had broken up and showed It to
his master The blacksmith saw he
had no common boy as an apprentice,
and that the invention was a valuable
one He had loom constructed under
the supervision OF the boy. 1t worked
to their perfect satisfaction, and the
blacksmith furnished the means to
manufacture the looms, and the boy
received half the profits. In about a
year the blacksmith wrote TO the boys
father that he should bring with him
wealthy gentleman, who was the In
ventor OF the celebrated power loom.
You may be able 70 judge Of the as
constituent at the old home when his
son was presented to him as the In
ventor, who told him that the loom
was the same as the model that he
had kicked to pieces the previous year.
