The Farmers Wife

Is very careful about her churn. She scaldS it thoroughly after using, and gives 1t sun bath to Sweeten it. She knows that If her churn is sour it will taint the butter that is made in it. The stomach is churn. In the stomach and digestive and nutritive tracts are performed pro- cesses which are almost exactly like the churning of butter. Is it not apparent then that if this stomach-churn is foul 1t makes foul all which is put into 1t?
 The evil of a 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. It does for the stomach what the washing and sun bath do for the churn-a bsolutely 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, constlpated 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 derangementS.

There is not being much said about the governor race here, but think the voters will wake up in time to go to the polls on the 25th and vote for George w. Donaghey. He is not only Faulk- ner county man but an Arkansas man who has stood by the taxpayers in the state house fight, and defeated the plans of the boodlers before the last general assembly. So let's turn out and give him the biggest vote any man ever re- ceived in Faulkner county.

in Patent Office.

Mrs Frances B. Erwin of New Orleans
formerly connected with the patent of
flee, died recently.
In a memorial adopted by clerks in the
patent office, the following is related:
About ten years ago Mrs Erwin was
made conspicuous by an incident which
was appreciatively noticed not only in the
Washington papers. but all over the coun-
try. The occasion was promotion which
she received in the patent office. At
that time her sympathetic heart had been
stirred by the misfortunes of a lady
whose desk was near her own, and SO
greatly was her interest enlisted that she
decided TO appeal to Maj Butterworth.
then commissioner of patents. to transfer
the promotion to the woman i'll distress.
The commissioner was deeply touched,
and was reported to have said:
Il fear, madam, that you will shortly
be translated to some other sphere: you
must have touched the garments of the
NaZarene"
Mrs. Erwin'S request was Immediately
complied with, but the story was too rare
for concealment. and when she appeared
the following morning she found her desk
buried in flowers, the gift OF her fellow
clerks.
Four days later she received a second
promotion.
