Life: Tom is so very punctillious and in this case was especially anx ious about producing a good Impres sion. But the florist made the mis take of sending with the roses the card that toore the Inscription,: "Do the best you can for $2.00." A TERRIBLE VISITANT. Paine is always a terrible visitant, and oiten domiciles itself with one for life. This infliction is preventlble, in cases of rheumatism, by at imely resort to Hostettjrs Stomach Bitters, which checks the encroachments of this obsti nate and dangerous malady at the out Bet. The term "dangerous," Is used advisedly, for rheumatism Is always liable to attack the vital organs and terminate life. No testimony Is more conclusive and concurrent than that of physicians who testify to the excel lent effect of the bitters in this disease. Persons incur a wetting in rainy or snowy weather, and who are exposed to draughts, should use the bitters as a preventive of 111 effects. Malaria, dys-j.c-pia, liver and kidney trouble, ner vousness and debility are also among the ailments to which this popular medicine is adapted. For the iniirtni tles, soreneps and stiffness of the aged, It Is highly beneficial. The Japanese report that their loss during the flrnt seven months of the war was 330 men killed In battle, and 430 died from disease. This period cov ered all operations to December 6, In cluding the fall of Port Arthur. "A TALENTED EDITOR."

But what It more appalling than the living body made repulsive with skin and scalp diseases, salt rheum, tetter, eczema and scrofulous sores and swellings, Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery Is the positive cure for all these dls eases. If taken in time It cures lung- 3crorula, commonly known as pulml nary Consumption. By druggists. Kayser, N. C. Dr. R. V. Pierce: Dear Sir When about three years old I was taken with mumps, also had fever, finally I had that dreadful disease, Scrofula. I had running scrofulous sores on the left side of my neck and face. I was small and weakly , when eight or nine years old, and in fact was nearly a skeleton, Six bottles of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery wrought marvelous (hanges. Although the sores were healed in eight months, I did not quit taxing it until l was sure It had been entirely routed from my system. The only signs left of the dreadful disease are the scars which ever remind me of how near death death's door I was until rescued by the "Discovery." J am now eighteen years old and weigh 148 pounds; and have not been sick in five years. Yours respectfully, HARVEY M. HOLLEMAN, Agent for Seaboard Air Line, For constipation and headache, use Dr. Pierce's Pellets.
