TUB DAILY AST0R1AA, ASTORIA, FRIDAY MOUMKU, FEBRUARY Ifi, 18115. A PIECE OF HER MIND. A lady correspondent has this to say: "I want to give a piece o my mln3 10 a certain class wno object to ad vertising, when It costs them anything this won't cost them a cent. "I suffered a living death fop nearly two years with headaches, backache, In pain standing or wanting, was being literally dragged out of existence, my misery increased by drugging. "At last In despair I committed the "in of trying an advertised medicine, Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, and it restored me to the blessedness of sound health. I honor the physician, who when he knows he can cure, has the moral courage to advertise the fact." The rredlclne mentioned cures all the dciicate diseases peculiar to females, as "Female Weakness," periodical pains, Irregularities, nervous prostra tion, spasms, chorea or St. Vltass' Dance, sleeplessness, threatened Insan ity. To permanf-ntly cure constipation, bil iousness, Indigestion, or dyspepsia, use Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets. Ex-Senator Henry G.

The chief function of the kidneys is to separate from the blood, in its pas sage through them, of certain Impuri ties and watery particles which make their final exit through the 'bladder. The retention of these, in consequence of inactivity of the kidneys, is pro ductive of Brlght's Disease, . dropsy, dialbotls, albuminuria, and other mala dies wloh a fatal tendency. Hostetter's Stomach Bitters, a 'highly sanctioned diuretic and blood depurent, impels the kidneys when inactive to renew their sifting function, and strain from the vital current impurities which infest It and threaten their own existence as organs of the body. Catarrh of the bladder, gravel and retention of the urine, are also maladies arrested or averted by this benign promoter and restorative of organic action. Mala ria, rheumatism, constipation, bilious ness, and dyspepsia also yield to the Bitters, which is also speedily bene ficial to the weak and nervous.

SOLDBYALLDRUGQISTS Indio The Oasis of the Colorado Desert Health fesort BELOW THE LEVEL OF THE SEA Absolutely Dry and Pure Tropical, Climate Pronounced by Physicians the most Favorable in America for Sufferers from ... Lung Diseases and Rheumatism Many Remarkable Cures The objections urged against Indio In the past by the large numbers who otherwise would have been glad to take advantage of its beneficial climate, has been a lack of suitable accommoda tion. The Southern Paclflo Company, takes pleasure in announcing that sev eral Commodious and Comfortable Cottages have just been erected at Indio sta tion, that will be rented to applicants at reasonable rates. They are fur nhhed with modern conveniences, sup plied with pure artesian water, and so situated as to gove occupants all the advantages to be derived from a more or lens protracted residence in this de- llfflitful climate. (From the San Francisco Arironaut.) "in tho heart of the great desert of the Colorado wliloh the southern Fa- cino road traverses there is an oasis called Indio, which, in our opinion, ihe sanitarium of the earth. We be .Icve, from personal investigation, that i'or certain Invalids, the-s is no spot oi this planet so favorable. O. T. Btewart, M. !., writes: "Tht purity of tho air, and the eternal sun shine, nil one with wonder and delight. Nature has accomplished sc much that there remains but little for man to do. As to Its possibilities as a health resort, 'here Is the most per fect sunshine, with a temperature al ways pleasant, a perfectly dry soli, for rain Is an unknown factor; pure oxygen, dense atmosphere and pure water. What more can be desired? It is the place, above all others, for unar troubles, and a paradise lor rheu matics.
