Of Interest To Women,

To such women as are not seriously cut oflhealthA but who have exacting duties tol perform either in the way of house. hdld cares\or in social duties and func- tidps. YhiSh\ \seriously tax their strength, as welf Stp nursing mothers. Dr. Pierce's Favorite PfeASription has proved most valuable supRSrting tonic and invigorat- ing nervine. By its timely use, much serious sickness aud SDtfering may be avoided. The operating table and the Iurgeons' knife. would. is believed, keldom have to be employed if this most valuable woman,S remedy were reSnrted to in good time. The "Favorite PreScrip- tiOn" has proven a great boon to eXpectant mothers by preparing the system for the coming of baby, thereby rendering child birth safe, easy, and almost painless.
 Bear in mind, please that Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is not secret or patent medicine, against which the most intelligent people are quito naturally avcrSe, because of tho uncertainty as to their composition and harmless character, but is MEDICINE OF KNOWN COMPOSE TIoN, full list of all its ingredients being printed, in plain English, on every bottle wrapper. An examination of this list of ingredients will disclose the fact that it is non-alcoholic in its composition, chemic- ally pure, triple-rcfincd glycerine taking the place of the commonly used alcohol, in its makeup. In this connection it may not be out of place to state that tho uFavorite Prescription" of Dr. Pierce. is the only medicine put up for the cure of woman's peculiar weaknesses and ail- ments, and sold through druggists, all the ingredients of which have the un- animous endorsement of all the leading medical writers and teachers of all the several schools of practice, and that too as remedies for the ailments for which UFavorite Prescription" is recommended:
 A little book of these endorsements will be sent to any address, postpaid, and absolutely free if you request same by postal card, or letter, of Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo. N Y.
 Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cure con- stipation. Constipation is the canse of many diseases. Cure the cause and you cure the disease. Easy to take as candy.

There is considerable ground

There is considerable ground for eradication over the pro- gress of the Taft boom. The early primaries, following the declaration for Taft in over six ty out of eighty eight counties in Ohio, seems destined to clear up all doubt which may have ex- iSted as to the situation in that state and the reports from all sections indicate that the popu larity and strength of the Sec retary of War are growing rap- idly. The Taft people figure that their candidate will have 504 votes on the first ballot in the national convention without drawing on any state which has a favorite son, while they also count on an additional 109 votes as good as assured which they believe will be cast for Taft. 4S1 is all that are needed to nom mate. It has always been one of the strong points of the Re- publican party that it stands stanchly behind the party nom-- inee and the earlier it is decided who the nominee shall be the better it is for the party at the polls. An early decision affords ample time for the disappointed ones to forget their disappoint- ment and to get into line.

Boil Eggs Without Water.
J. M. Polhamus,
 Clerk.

Boiling eggs without the use of water is the latest novelty eX- plotted at one of Chicago's lead ig hotels, says the New York Herald, and as the feat is accom- p,lshed directly before the eyes of the diner, the new way of cooking generally attracts atten- tion and comment. The waiter places a box-like apparatus on the table and turns on a little electricity and places the desired number of eggs in the heater. In about a minute and a half, or half the time consumed by the hot water process, the eggs are cooked to a turn. The process is an idea originated Ly Prof. Radtke of Armour Institute.

Young man, let us give you the benefit of our observation. We have noticed that at least nine-tenths of the young men who have been before the courts for misdemeanors are those who take no interest whatever in ed ucation, seldom read a newspa- per, and are always ready to make fun of other young men who try to be somebody. It comes natural to them to dis, courage the studious and ambi- tious young men of their ac- quaintance. Their minds run toward dirty stories, midnight sprees and bad company. This in 8 short time means trouble, a sheriff's invitation to attend court, and a fine or a term in iail.

While everything is moving harmoniously toward a united party in the republican conven- tion, the troubles of the demo- crats are multiplying as the date of their convention approaches. The opponents of William J. Bryan are seriously considering the advisability of making a formal appeal to the Peerless Leader to withdraw from the race, as they say it is obvious that, while he may control the convention, he cannot win at the polls, and that he ought to show sufficient patriotism to eliminate himself, to stand aside in favor of a candidate who can win. It seems to be the hope of the anti Bryan democrats that they can win with Governor Johnson of Minnesota, but the Bryanites are convinced that no democrat could poll as many votes as MT. Bryan. The prospects are all bright for a serious division in the party accompanied by all the rancor and anger which the democracy always injects into a political contest.
