WOMAN SUFFRAGE.
It's War Time Aspect.

LONDON, June S.-The women of
England are doing their duty. They
are taking care of the wounded, or if
they cannot assist in work of that
kind, they are adding their savings
ito promote the good work They are
knitting and sewing for the soldiers
at the front. The suffragists have
given SO little trouble to the govern
ment that it will undoubtedly soften
the hearts of those in parliament,
since the "militants" have turned all
their energies to aid the fighting men
Of England, and so suffrage may soon
come after this terrible war is over
Thousands of women in America
have overcome their sufferings, and
have been cured of womanly ills by
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription.
This medicine, though started nearly
half a century ago, sells more widely
today than any other womanly tonic.
It can now be had in tablet form as
well as liquid, and every woman who
suffers from backache, headache,
nervousness, pain at times, should
take this prescriptions Of DR.. Pierce
Many a woman is nervous and irri-
table, feels dragged down and worn
out for no reason that size can think
Of. In ninety-nine per cent of these
cases it is the womanly organism
which requires attention; the weak
back, dizzy spells and black circles
about the eyes, are only symptoms.
Go to the source of the trouble and
correct the irregularities, the drains
on the womanly system and the other
symptoms disappear

FAITH.

FAITH.
'In pastures green he leadeth me-
My soul can naught but horror see.
"Beside the still water" l may lie
While sweet reflections from blue
skies
Comfort my terror stricken eyes.
D God! The battles fevered breath:
That valley of the shade OF death.
Where dear loved sons of mothers lie.
Their blank eyes gazing to the sky!
.1'll fear no evil; thou'rt with me:
Thy rod and staff, they comfort me-
But on that field mid sweet red
clover.
The cup of horror brimmeth over.
MY faith is tott'ring! Can it be
Thy will that such cruel things
should be?
No! No! Good Shepherd, bid 1t cease!
o God in heaven, give us peace!

The City Health Survey.

Every citizen Of Annapolis should
extend his most hearty cooperation to
the officials Of the State Board of
Health, who are in this city in the
interest Of the health of the town
residents.
Nothing is more important to a
town or city than that 1t be blessed
with good health. And it is an adj
mitted fact that this blessing only
exists where the surroundings are neat,
clean and sanitary.
IL there are conditions here that
need correcting. let's help the officials
along in the work. Anybody can criti-
cize: a knocker can use hammer in
stead of brains; but men who have
the interests of the community at
heart should insist upon nothing short
Of a most rigid investigation into the
causes Of the several cases Of typhoid
which have occurred during the year.
Let's all cooperate.
