Eminent Doctors Praise Its Ingredients.

We refer to that boon to weak, nervous,
suffering women known as DIR. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription.
DIR. John Fyfe one of the Editorial STAFF
of The ECLECTIC MEDICAL REVIEW says
of Unicorn root (Reionias Dioicd) which
is one of the chief ingredients Of the "E'a-
vorite Prescription:
"A remedy which invariably acts as a utter
tivity of the entire reproductive system"
He continues 'in Helonias we have q medics-
ment which more fully answers the above
acquainted. In the treatment Of diseases Pc
culiar to women 1t is seldom that case Is
seen Wnien Goes not present some indication
saws: The following are among the leading
indications for Helonias (Unicorn root) Pain
or aching in the back with leucorrhea;
atomic (weak) conditions of the reproductive
organs of women, mental depression and ir.
ritability, associated with chronic diseases OF
the reproductive organs of women, constant
sensation of heat in the region OF the kid.
neys: menorrhagia (hoodng), due to weak.
ened condition OF the reproductive system;
amenorrhea suppressed or absent mon thly
periods, arising from or accompanying an
abnormal condition OF the digestive organs
and anRmic (thin blood habit; dragging
sensations in the extreme lower part Of the
abdomen"
II more or less OF the above symptoms
are present, no invalid woman can do
better than take DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription, one of the leading ingredi-
ents Of which is Unicorn root, or Helonias,
and the medical properties of which it
most faithfully represents.
OF Golden Seal root, another prominent
ingredient OF "Favorite Prescription, "
Prof. Finley Ellingwood. NJ. D., of Ben
nett Medical College, Chicago, says:
1T is an important remedy in disorders OF
the womb In all catarrhal conditions
and general enfeeblement, 1t is useful"
Prof. John NJ. Scudder, NJ. D., late OF
Cincinnati, says of Golden Seal root:

PLAGUE OF CATS.
The Paris Police Adopt Strinsen,
Measures.

Cats in London are often a nuisance
to the householder when they fight
upon the roof in the middle of the
night, but in Paris, especially near the
Halles Centrales, they are said to have
become a public danger. 1t appears
that these animals swarm in thousands
all over the markets, and, as most OF
them are NANCY and otherwise dis
eased, it is feared that they will con
taminate the goods set out for sale.
so the police have issued an edict that
all the stray cats are to be captured
and put into lethal chamber, and as
a consequence the kind-hearted market
women have adopted many of the cats
and now claim them as their own prop
erty. Bus M. Guichard, the police in
spector in charge of the markets. will
hear of no mercy, and the offending
animals are to be slaughtered without
delay. The police are to surround the
market and to carry sacks in which tc
put the captured cats. What is to be
done If the cats escape on to the roofs
Is not stated.

oRAvE-DIocERs' BANQUET.
Ghoulish Affair Throughout, Held in
One of the Paris Res ,...,,.
taurants. b.

Paris.-A gay company of profes-
sional grave diggers lately met in one
Of the most popular of the boulevard
restaurants and had the strangest din
uer ever given in Paris. The proprie-
tor Of the place made it an express
condition that the nature of the feast
must not leak out and reach the ears
of the scores of regular aristocratic
patrons of the restaurant.
The menu was printed in the most
dismal and ghoul-like terms. 1t was
enough to make anyone but profes-
sional grave digger shudder.
A newspaper writer who happened
to get himself smuggled into the ban
quet room took just one look at the
menu and then made for the door as
fast as he could go, followed by a
sepulchral sort of song, the last line
of the chorus saying:
1--WE expect to see you again"
Every item on the menu bore the
name of some Paris cemetery or con-
tanned some allusion to the tomb.
The first toast was Long Life to
Death, the Queen of the World" The
grave digger who responded to it
made the hit Of the evening with his
humorous twits about her majesty.
There were numerous other toasts,
all smacking of the business of the
diners, and every response received
generous applause.
But IL the toasts were hume, Gus,
the songs were not less so. To the
most dirge-like tunes the gay COM
pany sang the merriest of words.
A few men not of the fraternity
managed to stick there until the end
Of the weird feast. They said after
ward that they found the menu full
of shudders but the entire affair most
enjoyable.

CLASSICAL MUSIC.
Life Tells Why Great orehestras Lose
Money.

A series of great concerts in Boston
net loss of $1,S00. The Pittsburg
Symphony orchestra falls behind its
expenses in the sum of $4,000. In Chi
cago the fine organization founded and
trained by Theodore Thomas is able to
pay its way only with the bourgeois
help of rentals" says Life. 1t Is
about so everywhere and still the pur-
veyors Of music do not learn that or
anlary mortals creep before they walk
and walk before they fly.
Whatever symphonies may be to the
adept, they are noise to the general and
only now and then some adventitious
circumstance. some occasional fad or
foible will put the general in the mind
to pay out their good money to be
bored. The music which hath charms
to separate the savage from his coin Is
the music which he esteems as such
and with precisely that sort of thing
ill they have to begin who would lift
him to higher levels.

LACK OF LAsoRERs.
Leave Work In the Country for Idle
ness in the Citv

In other countries the growth Of dis
content is chiefly, If not wholly, due to
the excessive supply of labor, says the
Chicago Journal. But in the United
States the demand for labor greatly
exceeds the supply. The difficulty is
that labor crowds into the already con-
gested cities and will not even in ex-
treme necessity go into the country,
where it is lacking.
President Hill of the Great Northern
railroad says that "in the West pros
perity is everywhere in evidence. The
only drawback is scarcity of labor.
AS matter of fact, labor is so scarce
that many farmers are selling portion
of their land because enough labor can
not be obtained to carry on operations
on large SCALE"
We hear the same complaint every
year. Throughout the fertile and pros.
porous West crops go to waste in great
measure because labor enough to care
for them cannot be had at any price.
Meanwhile cities like Chicago are over
flowing with unskilled laborers, who
have nothing to do but grumble and
talk of that new millennium they call
Socialism. ... -
During all the years since the war
tue uTOdu pOpulullOu VI lue country
has been growing at the expense Of the
rural population. Though of late the
farmers lie has been relieved of most
of the loneliness and discomforts that
used to make it less desirable than city
life in those respects and he now has
free delivery of letters and newspa-
pers, telephone connection and rapid
transit by trolley lines almost every
whore yet most farmerS' sons head for
the cities as soon as possible and the
cities receive by far the largest proper
tion of immigrants.
Aside from the inconvenience and
distress this tendency produces, it Is
not good omen for the Nations moral
or physical health. The lure of the city
is in most cases lure for unwhole-
some desires-the desire to get rich
quickly, to procure enervating and de-
moralizing luXuries, to enjoy those dis
sipations which thrive wherever great
numbers of men and women are hud-
died together.

WORST CASE OF ECZEMA.
Spread Rapidly over Body-Limbs
land Arms Had to Be Bandased-
Marvellous Cure by Cutjcura.

"My son. who is now twenty-five
years of age, when he was four
months old began to have eczema on
mis- face, spreading quite rapidly until
he was nearly covered. We had all
the doctors around us, and some from
larger places, but no one helped him
a particle. The eczema was something
terrible, and the doctors said 1t was
the worst case they ever saw. At
times his whole body and face were
covered, all but his feet. l had to
bandage his limbs and arms; his
scalp was just dreadful. A friend
teased me to try Cuticura, and l be.
gan to use all three of the Cuticura
Remedies. He was better in two
months; and in six months he was
well. Mrs. R. L. Risley, Piermont.

The Signs in the Heavens.

Last Saturday night, strange and
beautiful signs were seen in the
heavens. Many gazed, and won.
dered what it indicated. The wise
men of the East only saw one star.
1t rested over the spot where lay
one in his infancy, who was to bring
great joy, hope, and happiness to
the sinners.
That the signs Saturday night
had some happy significance no one
questioned. Who could read the
hand writing on the wall. One in
depreciation has been given, which
has been accepted in lieu of any
thing better. These signs repre-
sented two parrelled lines some
three inches wide, and some six or
eight feet long, at the top end of
these lines were spires, similar to
to those of large cities. The inter-
probation is: The paralleled lines
represented the locks were to be
built in Cypress river near Albany
Flats, becaused it was in that vi
cinity the signs lowered. The spires
sparkling in beauty, represented
that the building of the locks would
cause the building of great city
farther up the river, whose beauty
would be the admiration of the
world. Coming the night after the
reviewing board had made known
their unholy and unsupported con-.
illusions, declining to recommend
the improvement, was very signifi-
cant. There were many who did
believe in the star of the East, and
would not follow; there are many
to day who don't believe in the
parallel lines indicated or foretold
of the great joy, happiness, and
wealth caused by the locks at Alba.
