kiK from a diseased condition of the
jrnsitive womanly organism. The only
wa y to cure the headache is to cure the
diVases which cause it.
The use of I)r. Pierce's Favorite Pre
scription has been the means of curing
Uiousands of women of headache, back
ache, female weakness and other fortiu.
f disea. peculiar to women. It estab
lishes reeularity, dries weakening drains,
heals inflammation and ulceration and
cures bearing-down pains.

Chief Hailock attributes the big in-

greater number of gambling game.
'Each game i required to eontrlbut
j -5 monthly for the privilege of doin?
business, and it Is from this source
! that the money comes. Th- Chinese
,hace been gambling heavily durins th-
year, although the numl.-r of gam-s In
.white gambling houses has b -n wur-
what les than in former year. It
is very difficult for the police to "k-ep
cases" on the Chinese gam-s. as the
I Celestials open one day and pay their
i license and. experiencing a str-ak of
! hard luck, go to the wall before an
tother night rolls around. However, as
jsoon as one falls another takes hi
j place, and often one game will pay
several fines during the month, because
