After adjournment of the legislature last year, Governor Chamberlain returned a number of bills with his veto. The senate is overwhelmingly Republican and the goveinor is a Democrat, by which it might have been expected that at the first opportunity the senate would have been swift to pass the bills over the vetoes. In spite of this difference in po litical opiuioua the senate, iu the incident referred to, refused to take a billion dollars, says be holds one- ; hundred aud eighty ninth part of the j wealth of this country.

For obvious reasons it is not wise to mention names in such a case. For the facts of this life story are so common that any woman could relate them to some of her married friends, and probably might do, so, if the name happened to fit. Therefore, a real story is printed under a wrong name. When Mrs. Brown married she was what every one called a remarkably fine girl. She was the very picture of health. She knew nothing about headaches or nerves, but enjoyed life thoroughly— working or playing. Everybody called Brown a lucky man, and Brown thought so himself. After the first baby came, ANNUAL MEETING OF SCHOOL DISTRICT Add the bitakidowit * *»»a4 uhicl physical weakness can no longvr sustain? The conditions of our life hre such that women do not have, as a rule, i t opportunity for rest ai d recieatn u. The necessity, therefore, is apparent r some strength preserving and strength- creating medicine to cure the disc. »1 that weaken women and to strengthen them for the obligations of maternity. That medicine exists and has been tlm means of restoring thousands of wea r and sick women to lasting health. "I had poor health for nine yea 1 (ever since the birth of my child I.” writes Mrs. Armintie Watkins, of Acn •, Kanawha Co., W. Va. "Had fem, e weakness; was very irregular and won d suffer untold misery. When I wrote I had no idea that I would ever get we but when your letter reached me I beg i to have hope. I commenced taking Dr. Pierce’s medicines as di rected and began to im prove in strength. I was soon able to co the work for my family of six. 1 have recommended Dr. Pierce's medicines to a number of my friends, and they think there nev er were such medicinei in the world. I think sc myself. I took eight bottles, three of ' Favor ite Prescription ’ and five of * Golden Medical Dis covery,’ and two vials of ‘Pellets.’ ” WOMEN LOSE CONFIDENCE Mrs. Brown began to feel tired sometimes at the end of the day. Then there came another little guest, and the mother used to feel tired before the end of the day came. She knew now that she had nerves, and also had learned the mean ing of headache. About this time peo ple used to speak of Mrs. Brown’s falling off in looks. Her figure lost its graceful lines, her cheeks their rosy plumpness. Mr. Brown wasn’t losing anything, by the way. He was putting on flesh, and showed in every way the comfortable ease of a tnan who has a good home and a good wife to manage it. Mr. Brown believed in large families. Every visit of the stork was to him a cause of happi ness. No man could have been more proud of his family. He didn't realize either his own selfishness or his wife’s sacrifices. If he had seen a true picture of his family life it would have shown him ia a cart surrounded by a happy family and his wife in the shafts wearily, but willingly, drawing the heavy load. They got just one too many on the load at last, and after that t!ie neighbors spoke of the late Mrs. Brown. FAST-LIVING WOMEN. It is not only the women who turn night Into day and sacrifice health to pleasure who live fast. The wife and mother who in ho-.sehold duties and maternal care3 exhausts vitality more rapidly than it can be supplied, is also living fast, and fa .t living does not mean long living. In a norma! condition of health a woman is equal to all proper womanly obligations. tilie can guide the house an 1 re ir a fanr’y, and as a grandmother still show the of womanly beauty and strength, so few women are normally healthy. Their vitality is often lessened by un healthy drains, by disease of the delicate womanly organs, while the household cares increase as the family grows. Ev- :ry child gets its strength from its mother. As a fact, the prospective mother mould be relieved from every oossible burden and anxiety, instead of winch she carries the household burden to the last. Is it any wonder that under ‘hew circumstances her strength fails. I I in medicines and doctors after they have been treated without benefit and taken medicines without cure. It ia hard to persuade such women to make another trial, even of Dr. Pierce’s Fa- vorite Prescription, with the testimony of so many women to its cures. It is to snch women, discouraged, sick, hope less, that Dr. Pierce specially extends his offer of free consultation, by letter. Any sick woman is invited to consult Dr. Pierce, by letter, frte. All corres pondence is held as strictly private and sacredly confidential. Address Doctor R. V. Pierce, Bufl&o, N. Y. "When I wrote to you in Msrch, ssk- ing advice as to what to do for myaelf," says Mrs. Ella Reynolds, of Gnffie, Mc Lean Co., Ky., "I was expecting to be come a mother in June, and was sick all the time. Had been sick for several months. Could not get anything to stay in my stomach, not even water. Had mishaps twice in six months, threatening all the time with this one. Had female weakness for several years. My hips, back and lower bowels hurt me all the time. Had numbness from my hips down. Had several hard cramping spells, and was not able to do any work at all. I received your answer in a few days, telling me to take Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription. I took three bottles, and before I had taken it a week I was better, and before I had taken it a month I was able to help do my work. On the 27th of May my baby was born, and I was only sick three hours, and had an easy time. The doc tor said I got along nicely. We pnaise Dr. Pierce’s medicine, for it has cured me. I am better now than I have been for thirteen years.” CrvB it a trial No matter how many medicines have been tried in vain, there’s always a probability of a perfect cure for wom anly diseases by the use of Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription. It establishes regularity, dries weakening drains, heals inflammation and ulceration, and cures female weakness. For weak, run-down women it is the best of tonics and nervines, restoring health and strength. A CIFT.
