This is an external application for the

In place of n period Of discomfort and con-
sequent dread, 1t Is season of calm repose

There is no nausea, no morning sick
ness, no nervous twitching, none of that
constant strain known TO so many women,
hence Mothers Friend Is really one Of the
greatest blessings that could be devised.

PARDoNS as.

Jackson, Miss. Feb. 6.-Forty-fvo
negroes serving on the Kinds county
penal farm were pardoned by Governor
Brewer yesterday.
The negroes were doing time on
charges Of trespass and were sent up
from the Justice courts of Allen Brown
and II. C. Spraggins. The pardons
We're based on the unanimous request
Of the board Of supervisors, who rep
resented to the Governor that Kinds
county now has 119 prisoners on the
county farms, that the negroes SEN
fenced for trespassing were guilty of
no real wrong except such q wrong
was committed against the railroad
company.
The Governor, in discussing the
wholesale pardons last night, said that
the negroes were under fines of from
one to five dollars while the cost bills
went high and that he did not consid-
er such sentences in keeping with the
orderly administration Of justice and it
was to discourage these practices that
the pardons were issued.
The action of the Governor will very
probably not be popular with local con-
stables. In the past the railroads
have insisted that the negroes who
make a practice OF riding box cars and
tramping the tracks be arrested.
The pardons were matter OF gen
eral discussion in this city yesterday
afternoon and last night.
None Of the justices who imposed
the sentences were talked to about the
matter. but one peace officer is re-
quonsible for the statement that a
large percentage Of the county farms
population is made up from sentences
from the city courts.
