scription.' | consider it without an
equal for ills of women"
An the ingredients entering into
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription are
printed in plain English on each bottle
wrapper. Or. Pierce thereby shows that
he is not afraid TO tell his patients just
what this medicine is made of. This
is not true of any other medicine espe-
cially designed for the cure OF woman's
peculiar ailments. This Prescription"
is also the only woman's medicine sold
through druggists that does not con-
tain q large percentage OF alcohol; t
contains not drop.
As an indication of the high esteem
in which the medical profession are
coming 10 regard the several ingredi-
ents OF which DIR. Pierce's Favorite Pre-
scription, for weak and ailing women
is composed, we have room here 70 IN
sert only the following;
DR.. John Fyfe, of Saugatuck, Conn,
Editor of the Department of Therapeu-
ties in THE ELECTRIC REVIEW says OF
Unicorn root (Hel0nids DiOicd) one OF
the chief ingredients OF DIR. Pierce's Fa-
yorite Prescription: "A remedy which
invariably acts as a uterine inyigorator
and always favprs condition which
makes for normal activity of the entire
reproductive system, cannot fail TO Q
Of great usefulness and of the utn e
importance 10 the general practitioner
OF medicine"
rIn Helonias we have n medicament
which more fully answers the above
purposes than dny other drug nth
uhtch am acquainted. In the treat
ment of diseases peculiar % women IL
is seldom that casoeis seen which does
not present some indication for this
remedial agent.'
cThe following are among the lead
ing indications for Helonias; Pain OF
aching in the back, with leuc0rThma;
atomic weak cond,tiohs Of the repro
ductive organs OF women, mental de-
preston and irritability, associated
with chronic diseases of the reproduc-
tive organs of women, constant sensa-
ton OF heat in the region of the kidneys:
menorrhagia, (vfloodingn) due To a
weakened condition OF the reproductive
system; amenorrhea, arising from or
accompanying an abnormal condition
of the digestive organs and an anemic

in the extreme lower part OF the abdo-

II more or less OF the above symp-
toms are present. no invalid women
can do better than take DIR. Pierce's

ingredients of which is Unicorn root,

NV mOflor.n

A mothers worries are many. She
sometimes forgets her own bodily dis
comforts because OF her overpowering
love for the child. She becomes broken
down, sleepless, nervous, irritable and
feels tired from morning until night.
Many mothers of experience can tell you
that at such a time they have been re-
lieved, benefited and strengthened and
put into proper health by taking a pre-
ecription which their mothers had told
them was the best w0maRs tonic and
nervine to be taken at such times DIR.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription has en-
joyed an enviable reputation for over a
third OF century. In all that time II
has sold more largely in the United
States than any other tonic for woman's
needs, and to-day its sales are greater
than ever. DR.. Pierce made up this
prescription from native medicinal roots
without the use of particle of alcohol
and for the single purpose OF curing
those diseases peculiar to women and
when there is lack OF womanly
strength to bear the burdens of maternal
duty. How few women come to this
critical time with adequate strength.
The reason why so many women sink
under the strain of motherhood is be-
cause they are unprepared. is pre-
paration then required for mother
hood? asks the young woman. Aud
every experienced mother answers
-"Yes." 81 unhesitatingly advise ex-
pectant mothers 10 use Doctor PIerce's

son for this advice is that DIR. Pierce g
Favorite Prescription is the best pre-
parative for the maternal function. No
matter how healthy and strong a woman
may be, she cannot use vFavorite Pre-
scription" as q preparatlve for MAJ
ternity without gain of health and
comfort. But il is the women who are
not strong who best appreciate the great
+ benefits received from the use OF VA
vorite Prescription + T one thing its
use makes the baby's practically
painless. IL has in many ases reduced
DAYS OF suffering 20 br' few hours.
IL has changed the per OF anxiety

DUTY WOMEN OWE THEMSELVES.

Notes About the Players.

Connors showed up mighty fine In
practice work at. Cairo yesterday
but Gregory did not have much OF
an opportunity. Connors is there
with the goods, and will make good
with any team, and Gregory's work
here was faultless.
II is a singular fact that not o
member of the Paducah team is a
''boozer." II is true that several
take a drink occasionally, but they
stop there. Lloyd does not lay down
any rigid rule for his men, but 1t
seems that he has gotten together a
bunch which does not care to drink.
Wetzel and Connors are fielding
and hitting like fiends. It's a cinch
that the Indians will not miss Red"
Bohannan this year.
Walter Bissel, the fast left fielder
with Cairo a short time last season,
is back in uniform for the Egyptian
city again. He is a fast man, as fast
as can be found in the league.
The Cairo sporting writer's do not
figure out that French is the best
second baseman in the league, a
claim made by Vincennes. Eddie
Gilhgan Is playing second sack this
season, let IL be remembered.
Johnnie Ddgan has returned to
Vincennes by Nashville and the
Hoosier fans are rejoicing. We do
not think Duggan amounts to great
deal. Anyway the Indians had lit.
tie trouble in finding him last season.
Cairo Mud WallOwers will meet
the st. Louis Washingtons, a team
which the Indians defeated in the
first anti-season game here. A ma
jority of the team is in Metropolis,
and the team which will meet Cairo
will not be the team the Indians
went up against by any means. 1t
may be stronger and IL may be
weaker.

THE FASCINATION OF THE SEA.

Why it should be so | cannot
tell, but today as sat on the ram
shackle old pier from which boats
run to and fro to France and the
big world of Europe it did not
seem to me that I looked upon the
Channel only.
The gray waste of waters leaped
under nsrtheasterly breeze, there
was a gray sun in a faint blue sky,
but as l sat l saw far-off sunny
seas, a sky as blue as the purest
heavens of the tropics, and great
sunlit shores: This was the chan
nel-the English Channel-but

What I saw was one; it was the
ocean itself. l sailed, as of old,
round the mighty wedge that
thrusts itself outward into the cold
seas, and is known as the Horn. |
saw the Diego Ramirez Islands
(known to sailormen as Daggaram-
mareens), and I came up by the
windy Falklands to the Gains of
Capricorn, or the horse latitude
and lay there becalmed.
Yet even so was this the same
sea, the sea one and invisible, the
republic of waters. For not
wave that leaped OH the shores of
England but had lain IN quiet
calm south Of the line. 1t was our
sea even yet ours-the English sea
Of the world.
So wonderful a thing this is to
me that now never think of any
any seperate ocean. There is no
Atlantic, no Pacific, no. Great
Southern Ocean. It is one sea,
and whether we sail, as Drake did,
along the western shores of Amer
lea, or blunder through the Straits
of Magellan, as Magellan did, or
go south in the ice barrier with
Enderby, or north with Franklin,
it is the selfsame breathing crea-
ture of sea that bears us up and
onward.
Here are the palm islands of the

solidated in 1.-THE Land and Income
Assessment Act, 1900"
1923 the rate Of land tax in re-
spect of mortgages was reduced from
one penury in the pound to three
farthings. This represented a reduc-
ton Of revenue to the extent Of 10000
pounds. This loss has now been re-
couped by revision valuations made,
and the yield for 1904 was, in round
figures, $4,000 pounds, of which the
ordinary land tax was 232,800 pounds,
and the graduated tax (including the
special tax on absentee land owners)
10000 pounds. Deductions and ex-
emptions reduce the number of tax
payers as compared with the number
| Of landowners, the latter being up
wards Of $4,000, whilst the former
| only number about 10000.
In 1905 the principle that the state
should provide land for small settlers
| was extended, and the state empower
ed to acquire areas Of land in or near
cities and build thereon homes for
workmen at a cost not exceeding $50

for brick and concrete. These homes
