I r1 ' X corvmurr ttm "flint do I look f That depends, madam, upoa how you fool. If you're suffering from functional disturbances, irregulari ties or weaknesses, you're sure to " look it." And Dr. Tierce's Fa vorite Prescription is the remedy. It builds up and invigorates the system, regulates and pro.notes the proper functions, and restores health and strength. It's a legitimate medicine, not a beverage ; purely vegetable, perfectly harmless, and made especially for woman's needs. In the cure of all "female com plaints," it's guaranteed to give sat isfaction, or the money is refunded. No other medicine for women is sold so. Think of that, when the dealer says something else (which pays him better) is "just as good." " Times havo changed." So have methods. The modern, improve ments in pills are Dr. Pierce s Pleas ant Pellets. They help Nature, in stead of JtgJiting with her. Sick and nervous headache, biliousness, costiveness, and all derangements of the aver, stomach and bowels are "prevented, relieved, aud cured. " I have been afflicted with bilious ness and constipation for fifteen years and first one and then another prep aration was suggested to me and tried, but to no purpose. A friend recommended August Flower and words cannot describe the admira tion in which I hold it. It has given me a new lease of life, which before was a burden. Its good qualities and wonderful merits should be made known to everyone suffering with dyspepsia and biliousness." Jessb Barker, Printer, Humboldt, Kas. AN EXPLANATION AND ANSWER.

Experience of Brooklyn Party In Catch ing a Jay Btrwt Ferryboat. . "I never went to the Jay street ferry except once," said a Brooklyn man. "but on that occasion I had an experi ence that I shall long remember. There was a lady from Chicago visiting at my house, and she had planned to go home on a certain day by a certain train. The fact is she had a pass, and unless she got tiiat particular train the pass would .expire before she could make use of it My wife and I were going over to see her oil. I tried my best to get them started early, but they were confident that there was plenty of time, and it was impossible to hurry them. At length, however, we got under way, with just time enough to reach the train if we had good luck. . "We took a car to the Broadway ferry and crossed over to Grand street. am not sure that we might not have made better time if we had gone over the bridge and down Chambers street. However, at Grand street we took the little one horse car that runs across town through ' Canal street and down Washington street within one block of the ferry we wanted to reach. I never saw a car go so slowly in all my life, and the worst of it was that I was un familiar with the region through which we were going and with the route, and I couldn't tell how far we were from our destination. "At length we came to a full stop, and looking out I saw a big truck blocking our way. There was no driver on it and no apparent reason why it might not be turned out of the way with very little trouble. But, to my dismay and disgust, the driver bf our car calmly tied up his lines and perched himself on the dashboard of the car, just as if it was no matter to him whether he and we stayed there half an hour or not And there was that pass expiring moment by moment- inch by inch, as I might say. I was growing desperately nervous. So rushed out on the platform," pressed a half dollar in the hand of the driver and said: V 'Now I want you to get me to Jay street by such and such a time. It is very important , I must be there with out fail. Can you do itf 'Indeed, and that I can,' was his answer, and before the words were out of my mouth he was off the car and turning the big truck out of the way. Then you ought to have seen how he spun along. He fairly whipped that horse into a run. and we tore down the street in fine shape. It must have been a new experience for the horse. WelL the upshot of it was that we got to Jay street just as they were hauling in the planks and closing the gates. I shout ed to them to hold on, as two ladies were coming, for I had run on ahead and my companions had not yet en tered ' the ferry house. . The dock hands were good enough to wait for a fraction of a minute and the ladies just had time to step aboard as the signal to start was given. I didn't even have a chance to bid our friend good-by, ex cept to shout it to her as the boat be gan to mpve out of the slip. But that pass was savedl "The next time I take a friend to Jay street I shall allow an extra half hour's leeway, especially if we go by the street car that runs down Washing ton street" New York Tribune.

Munsey's Weekly. Be Should Have Felt at Home. There was once a Sir James Weir riogg, who made a fortune in India, and whose wife, holding a distinguished position in London fashionable circles, gave splendid parties. It is said fhat a young blood, meeting one of the Misses Hogg at a ball, and not knowing her name, asked her if she was going to the party at the "Piggery." Her re ply was: "Oh, yes; I am one of the litter." San Francisco Argonant tietting a Good lobster. Those who do the marketing and liave to buy lobsters are often bothered to pick out a good one. Here is a good rule to follow: If you examine a lobster that was alive when thrown into the boiler you will find that the tail is curied up to the body, while one that was dead has the tail extended In buying lobsters this is a good thing to bear in mind.

"I remember," said the colonel, when the party reached the end of a good dinner and the waiters stood behind the chairs with lighted matches, "1 re member an incident which stamped upon my mind the fact that when a man has an eye for business he has an eye for nothing else," The colonel tells a story well, and paused here, waiting for the cigars to be lighted, and for the Inspiring fra grance of the Havanas. "I shall not tell you how long ago it was, for I am getting too old to speak lightly of decades. But when I first set foot and it was a tender foot, let me say In Hugo, Colo., I at once conceived a great respect for a man named II ig- gins. I could not help feeling a rever ence for Higgins. Higgins was an un dertaker. He was the only undertaker within a hundred miles, and ho was getting rich. Never a day passed but my friend Higgins bad a funeral on hand. H e was the most cheerful under taker, perhaps, that ever flourished. "I remember well the day that bade Higgins good-by. He was as light spirited as a grasshopper, and a thou sand times expressed his regret that I was going into the Interior, until I felt clammy lest he might be grieved at the thought that some one else might have the profitable job of burying me. "When I next saw Higgins it was after a two years' experience of chasing wild steers. I was glad to see him, he was such a jolly old undertaker. "'Hello, Higgins,' I said choerfully when 1 walked into his establishment 'How are you. old manF "Higgins shook his head mournfully, and then I stopped short in amazement. for I saw that he was nailing down boxes and packing up his stock.

" 'Well, what do you think this town has done to meV " 'Surely nothing bad, Higgins.' " 'Nothing bad!' he screamed. 'Do you know what they've done? They've lynched Bill Smith, and if ever there was a cowardly blow aimed at a fore most citizen it was that.' " 'But you can bury him, Higgins.' " 'Bury him I' he screamed. 'Bury hnn! Bury Bill Smith I Why. man. Bill Smith was makin a fortune for me. He killed his man as regular as the sun went down, and I buried every one of 'em. He was worth 825 a day to me, he was.

We all know how we have advanced materially. Do we realize how we have advanced scientifically? Mure than In any other manner. Indeed, it has been the advancement in science which tins caused the advancement in material things. The discovery of steam per mitted the railroad and the steamboat. The development of electricity made possible the telegraph and the telephone, so that the development of the sciences hat been the real cause of all modern advancement. We will take, for example, one depart ment of science, but Die innit important department. One which affects our very lives and happiness. Formerly the trea'nent of human ills was made a matter of superstition, of incantation, the same as it Is by the medicine men of the Indians to-day. Gradually emerg ing irom such blindness, it was still a mutter of bigotry, of folly. What people must have suffered in those days csn scarcely be imagined. They were bled, they were cupped, they were leeched, they were subjucted to every dvioe whereby their vitality could be reilueed and their lives endangered, It is almost a wonder that the race survived. There has been an absolute revolution in the practice of medicine and in the treatment of human ills. Instead of un dermining the vital forces by cupping and bleeding, the vitality la now , sus tained in every possible manner. In stead of tearing down we seek to build up. Instead of increasing misery we seek to create happiness. But the greatest advancement in medi cal science has been made by discovery, liarvey coutd afford to endure the ridi cule 01 the world lor revealing to it the grand discovery of the circulation of the olood. Jenner might be ostracized, but millions have benefited by his discovery of vaccination, l'astenr lived in a more a enlightened age and escaped ridicule, while the world received the benefit which his discoveries have brought Koch, although forced to reveal his dis covery before its perfection, will bo re vered by future generations. The discoveries of these great men have been of untold benefit to the world, and yet they were not in the line of the world's greatest need. Mankind has been suffering, enduring, dying from a cause far greater than smallpox, rnoro terrible than hydrophobia end more f ubtle than consumption. The habits of modern life, the very inventions which have made civilization so great, have d mined the vital forcesof life and under mined the organs that sustain life. Ten ( SS years ago this great truth was realised by a gentleman whore own life was in sore Jeopardy, and the discovery which be has given to the world has done and Is doing more to-day to strengthen the vitality, lessen suffering, preserve the health aud lengthen life than any of the discoveries of the other great men alove mentioned. The discovery referred to was made by Mr. 11. II. Warner of Hrchester, N. Y., and Is known in En rope, in America and throughout the world as Warner's Bafe Cure. It may perhaps bo thought that the above assertion is an extravagant one, and so It would be were not the unques tionable proofs present to verily It. Within the past few years the claims made more than ten years ago have been admitted by the hluhcst scientific au thorities, both In Europe and America, and it is with plonmre that we present herewith some remarkable reproduced Mi DH.

They frequently come si lently and unannounced. Their pres ence far too often la not reailted until their treacherous fangs have been fixed upon the vital portion of life. Nothing can be more deceptive, for their symp toms are varied in nearly every instance. Thousands of persons hate been their victims without residing or knowing what it is that afflicted them.
