That the roots OF many native plants,
growing wild In our American forests,
possess remarkable properties for the cure
Of human maladles IL well proven. Even
the untutored Indian had learned the
curative value Of some OF these and
taught the early settlers their uses. The
Indian never liked work SO he wanted his
squaw TO get we'll as soon as possible that
she might do the work and let him hunt.
Therefore, he dug "papoose root +" for her,
for that was their great remedy for To-
male weaknesses. DR.. Pierce uses the
same root--called Blue Cohoshn his
"Favorite Prescription" skillfully com
blned with other agents that make 1t
more effective than any other medicine In
curing all the various weaknesses and
painful arrangements peculiar to women.
Many afflicted women have been saved
from the operating table and the sur
geonss knife by the timely use of Doctor
Pierce's Favorite Prescription. Tender
ness over the lower pelvic region, with
backache, spells OF dizziness, faintness,
bearing down pains or distress should not
go unheeded. A course OF "Fayorite Pre-

The prIr Of IN. Rain.


The stars have curtained their light
I'm clouds
And the moon has slipped from sight;
And only the sound of the rain is
heard
Through tho fragrant summer night.
Over the sloping and moss-grown
caves,
Dseuching the lilies and sweet green
leaves,
Filling the night with its low refrain
Is heard the drip of the summer rain.
The darkness, soft as a velvet robe,
Shuts the cares of the world away;
And the south wind blows the slant
ing rain
Into sheets of silver spray,
And up through the darkness, warm
and wet,
Comes the scent of pansies and
mignonette,
Bearing the message of hope again.
In this peaceful hour of rest and rain.
'Tis a gracious gift that the night be-
slows,
For the summer shower brings
The dreams OF peace, and a breath
Of balm
On the sweep of its dusky wings.
And the hearts that sorrow forget to
weep,
On the shadowy border-lands of sleep;
And the voice of care and the sting
of pain
Are lost in the drip of the summer
rain.
