Woman's Trials.
Th« bitter trail In a woman'* life Is to
be childless. Who can tell how hard the
struggle mar have been ere she learnt to
resign herself to her lonely lot? The ab-
sence of this link to bind marital life
together, the absence of this one pledge
to mutual affection Is a common disap-
pointment. Many unfortunate couples
become estranged thereby. Even If tney
do not drift apart, one may read the whole
extent of their disappointment in the eyes
of such a childless couple when they rest
on the children of others. To them the
largest famllydoes not seem too numerous.
In many eases of barrenness or child-
lessness tne obstacle to child-bearing Is
easily removed by the cure of weakness on
the part of the woman. Dr. Pierce’s Fa-
vorite Prescription has been the means of
restoring health and fruitfulness to many
a barren woman, to the great Joy of the
household. In other, but rare cases, the
obstruction to the hearing of children has
been found to be of a surgical character,
but easily removable by painless operative
treatment at the Invalids’ Hotel and .Sur-
gical Institute. Buffalo, N. Y., over which
Dr. Pierce of the "Favorite Prescription”
fame presides. In all cases where chil-
dren are desired and are absent, an effort
should be mode to find out the real cause,
since It Is generally so easily removed by
proper treatment.
In all the various weaknesses, displace-
ments, prolapsus. Inflammation and de-
bilitating, catarrhal drains und In all
cases of nervousness and debility, Dr.
Pierce’s Favorite Prescription Is the most
efficient remedy that can possibly be used.
It has to Its credit hundreds of thousands
of cures —more In fact than any other
remedy put up for sale through druggists,
especially for woman’s use. The Ingredi-
ents of which the " Favorite Prescription ”
Is composed have received the moat
positive endorsement from the leading
medical writers on Materia Medica of all
the several schools of practice. All the
Ingredients are printed in plain English
on the wrapper enclosing the bottle, so
that any woman making use of this
famous medlclno may know exactly what
she Is taking. Dr Pierce takes his pa-
tients Into his full confidence, which he
can afford to do as the formula after
which the "Favorite Prescription" Is
made will bear the most careful exam-
ination.
Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets are Um
best and safest laxative for women.
Texas Banks and Bankers.
Washington, March 9.—The
monthly summary of the comp-
troller brought down to the present
month shows that there have been
organized 40 new national banks
per month tor the past six years.
The recent spurt made by the mid-
dle Western states, including Ok-
lahoma and Indian Territories,
have put that section in the lead
in the matters of increase, both in
the number of banks organized
and their aggregate capital, their
total being 834 banks with a capit-
al of $51,411,000. The Southern
states, including Texas, stand sec-
ond in the matter of increase with
a total of 728 banks and a total
capital of $39,273,500. Nearly 45
per cent, of all banks chartered
since March 14, 1900, with ap-
proximately 50 per cent of the
authorized capital stock, are con-
versions of state or private banks
into national banks. During the
month of February there were
organized 41 national banks hav-
ing an aggregrate capital of $2,-
225.000. There were in existence
on March 1, 5,968 national banks
with a total authorized capital of
$824,640,265, and with a total ac-
tual circulation of $550,803,895.
American Boy Lost In Europe.
Paris, March 9.—A boy of n,
more especially a sharp American
boy, does not strike one as being
easily mislaid. Moreover, when,
so lost or mislaid, such a boy is
even still more unlikely to be un-
able to give an account of himself.
Therefore there is something that
requires explanation in a story
that comes from Marseilles. To
that busy city on the Mediterran-
ean, it is reported, a boy of the type
and age described above has drift-
ed after many adventures, and
now awaits ownership. He is
said to have left Baltimore with
some wealthy tourists. At Naples
he became separated from his par-
ty, no one seemingly having trou-
bled about him. For months he
has been knocking about the con-
tinent, and sent from one place to
another by kindly strangers, but
never a word has he heard from
his friends. Anyone owning the
much-traveled youngster can claim
the property by communicating
with the American consul at Mar-
seilles.

Hakes Steel for Whole World.
“The United States makes more
than one-third of the world’s pro-
duction of steel—15,000,000 tons
out of a total of 36.500,000 tons; it
is the richest and most prosperous
among the nations. The two
statements are complimentary.
Germany comes second, with an
annual production of 8,000000
tons, and England third, with 6-
000,000 tons.
“The 450 steel works scattered
throughout the Unlttti States rep-
resent a total investment of over
$442,000,000, and pay $103,000,*
000 annually in wages. These
figures cover only the actual pro-
duction ot steel in its crude form,
a process in which man has rapid-
ly been superseded by the marve-
lous and all but Tinman machines.
The magnitude of the industry in
its entreaty, representing a capital
01 billions and employing millions
of wage earners, may therefore be
imagined."—Technical World.

••We Have Many Similar".
The following is an extract from a
letter received from Mr. H. H. Meyers
of Stutgart, Ark: “You would greatly
oblige me if you would introduce
Hunt’s Lightning Oil at Millidgeville,
111., as I hare many friends and rela-
tives there, in whom I am much con-
cerned, and I understand the Oil is
not kept there. I can recommend it as
the best medicine 1 ever had in toy
house. It cured me of a bad case of
the Bloody Flux in less than one-half
hour, and it cured my grand-daughter
of a bad case of Cholera Morbus in a
very short time.”
