hood bring such untold suffering that the
face is sure to show it.
Every woman, young or old, is well pro-

ache, and the many symptoms Of disease
so prevalent among our women-if they
will eonscientiousfy take Doctor Pierce's
Favorits Prescription, safe and sure
remedy for the ms Of womanhood, be-
cause it contains not particle of alco-
hol, digitalis or any deleterious drugs.
Weak women are made strong and sick
women are made well by this splendid
prescription which was used by Doctor
Pierce in his large private practice in the
speciality of women's diseases. Every

The army is experimenting with
new continuance designed to To-.
cate hidden and hostile battery.
Since the advent of smoKeless
powder, war has becomes more
what Gen. Sherman said it was
than before. 1t will be recollected
that he said it was hi. Troops
that could stand pretty well being
shot at when there was smoke to
tell where the shooting came from,
were uncomfortably nervous when
there was no telling from which
direction they were being potted.
This being. lamentably true with
the British in the Boer war, was
true with our own troops in Cuba,
and was exemplifed again In the
conflict between the Russian and
Japanese. The Japanese brought
artillery practice down to a partir-
ularly fine point. They hid their
guns and shot with deadly effect,
and there was no way for the enc.
my to locate their batteries and
shell them out Of position. This
was particularly true during the
battle of Hal Cheng when they alb
solutely smashed the Russian de-
lenses with batteries hidden be-.
hind two hills where they never
were discovered There have
been some experiments made by
the Austrians now with seismo-
graphs, the instruments used to
record earthquake shocks. These
instruments are very delicate and
show not only the direction from
which a shock comes, but the dis.
lance that it travels. Of course,
earthquakes are severe, and their
distance is usually a matter of
hundreds or thousands of miles.
But the seismograph has been
trained down to the point where it
tells the direction and distance of
a disturbance within few thous.
and yards. The Austrian expert.
ments have been very satisfactory,
and the American army is now
working along the same lines and
has been able to locate a hidden
battery very accurately. In this
way it is expected that smokeless
powder will be robbed of much of
| it's terrors.

This is a rich country. of course

This is rich country, of course,
and we can afford almost any sort
of an extravaganza that we wish,
but the record the Treasurer for
the past month shows that even the
richest nation can be a little too
much of aspendthrift. The RECEIPTS
for August show an increase of
about two and quarter of mil
lion over the same month of the
previous year. But the expendi.
lures have advanced in the same
time 30 that the surplus will be
over four and a half million less
than it was for August, 1906. The
increase in civil expenditures &C
counts for S 5000, 900 of the amount
but that for the army and navy
total over 100000. This, it will
be observed, is with the army and
navy on a peace footing.
