FORTUNE TELLING
Does not take into consideration the one
essentia] to woman’s happiness — wom-
anly health. There is many a woman
whose future seems absolutely unclouded
who is marked by her own condition for
future disappointment and distress.
The woman who
neglects her health
is neglecting the
very foundation of
all good fortune,
ftor without health
e loses its lustre
gold is but
oss.
Womanly health
may be retained or
regained by the
use of Dr. Pierce’s
Favorite Prescrip-
tion. It establishes
egularity, dries
he drains which
weaken women,
heals inflamma-
tion and ulcera-
tion and cures
female weakness.
It makes weak
women strong,
sick women well.
Dr Pierce offers $500 reward for women
who cannot be cured of the above dis-
eases. His "Prescription” has been so
successful in curing thousands of cases
in the past third of a century that he
makes this remarkable offer to show his
confidence.
"I have taken six bottles of Dr. Pierce’s Favor-
ite Prescription,” writes Miss M. Fyfe, of Orillia,
Siracoe Co., Ontario, "and two bottles of the
' Pleasant Pellets ’ as vou advised for congestion
of uterus,"ovaries, and weakness, and can safely
say that your medicine has been the means of
restoring me to good health again, which I had
not had for over three years, until taking your
medicine. I thank you very much for your kind
and prompt attention to my letter asking advice.”
" Favorite Prescription ” has the testi-
mony of thousands of women to its com-
plete cure of womanly diseases.
Dr. Pierce’s Pleasant Pellets clear the
complexion and sweeten the breath.

Safeguard the Children.
Notwithstanding all that is
done by boards of health and cha-
ritably inclined persons, the
death rate among small children
is very high during tne hot
weather of the summer months
in the large cities. There is not
probably one case of bowel com-
plaint in a hundred, however that
could not be chred by the timely
use of Chamberlain’s Colic, Choi
era and Diarrhoea Remedy. Mr.
Prank Riggs of Franklinville, N.
Y., in speaking of this remedy,
said: “I have found it expedient
to have a supply of Chamberlain’s
Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea
Remedy on hand. It has been a
family safeguard and while espe-
cially beneficial to children, it is
equally good in adult cases. I
recommend it cheerfully and
without reservation.” For sale
by Ambrose Johnson.
No Pity Shown
“For years fate was after me
bbt:ihu(msly75 writes F. A: Gul-
Fiedge, Verbena, Ala. “I had a
terrible case of piles, causing 24
tumors. When all failed, Buck-
len’s Arnica Salve cured me.”
Equally good for burns and all
aches and pains. Only 25c at Am
brose Johnson’s drug store.
No False Claims.
The proprietors of Foley’s
Honey and Tar do not advertise
this as assure cure for consump-
tion.” They do not claim it will
cure this dread complaint in ad-
vanced cases, but do positively
assert that it will cure in the ear-
lier stages and never fails to give
comfort and relief in the worst
cases. Foley’s Honey and Tar is
without doubt the greatest throat
find lung remedy. Refuse sub-
stitutes.

gate of Alexandria, Ind., “and

ness to babies, 52
Recently a dance in an Indiana
town was. opened with praper by
a local parson. This is some-
thing very unusual. Generally
people who dance are perfectly
satisfied with the bliss the oc-
casion affords and do not care
for anything better. But the
prayer should have been follow-
ed by that popular song “Draw
Me Nearer. ”—Honey Grove Sig-
nal. _ '_
Brutally Tortured.
A case came to light that for
persistent and unmerciful tor-
ture has perhaps never been
equalled. Joe Golobick of Colusa,
Calif., writes: “For 15 years I
endured insufferable pain from
rheumatism and nothing relieved
me, though I tried everything
known. I came across Electric
Bitters and it’s the greatest med
icine on earth for that trouble. A
few bottles of it completely re-
lieved and cured me.” Just as
good for kidney and liver trou-
bles and general debility. Only
50c. * Satisfaction guaranteed by
Ambrose Johnson, druggist.
A very religious man who runs
a clothing store in an Oklahoma
town, always told his clerks to
do nothing that was not warrant-
ed in the Bible. Once he learned
that a clerk had charged a cus-
tomer $3 for a $1.50 article and
took him to task. “Can you
think of a. Bible quotation,” he
asked the clerk, “that would
warrant such conduct?” The
clerk said he could and quoted
this: “Behold, he was a stranger
and I took him in. Exchange.
Wasn’t Ingersoll Right?
young man from a small
country town, whose father was
a friend of the late Robert G.
Ingersoll, wanted to secure a po-
sition in Washington as gov-
ernment clerk. Accordingly with
a letter of introduction from his
father he went to the national
capitol to see Col. Ingersoll and
get his endorsement. Ingersoll,
after listening to the young
man’s story, and learning that
he had a young wife and one
child, said:
“Young man, I would rather
have 40 acres of land with a log
cabin on it and the woman I love
in the cabin—with a little, gras-
sy, winding path leading down
to a spring where the water gur-
gles from the lips of the earth,
whistling day and night to the
white pebbles a perpetual song—
with hollyhocks growing at the
corner of the house, and morn-
ing glories blooming over the
low latched door—with lattice
work over the windows so that
the sunlight would fall check-
ered on the dimpled babe in the
cradle, and birdlike songs with
wings hovering in the air—than
to be the clerk of any govern-
ment on earth.”
They Are All Pleased.
“By experience I have found
your Hunt’s Lightning Oil to be
a great pain and sprain reliever.
I am very much pleased with it.”
C. C. Cook,
Halletsville, Texas.

A bachelor sheriff in North
Texas, who attempted to serve a
writ of attachment on a pretty
woman, came near getting into
serious trouble recently. He
called and said: “Madam, I have
an attachment for you.” She
blushed and said the attachment
was reciprocated. “Madam, you
understand,” hel said, “you must
proceed to court.” She told him
she knew it was leap year, but
she thought he would do the
courting. “Madam,” he contin-
ued, “this is no time for trifling,
the justice is waiting.” “Oh, I
prefer a minister,” she said.

ECZEMA
The Blood Aflame with an Itchiag
Humor that sets the
Skin on Fire.
Eczema, the most common and terrible of all Sfcin
troubles, begins sometimes with a slight redness of tl
skin, which gradually spreads, and as the inflammation and
itching increase, the entire system is thrown into a restless,
feverish condition. Soon little watery blisters or
pimples break out, from which a clear liquid or
yellow fluid is discharged, which forms thick crusts
and sores, or falls off 111 fine .particles or scales,
leaving the skin raw and tender, or hard^and dry
like parchment. Eczema attacks most frequently
the legs and arms, back and chest, face and hands,
and is a disease that comes and goes in the earlier
stages, but is a perpetual torment and constant!
annoyance when chronic. At times the itching and!
stinging is so great that the sufferer, driven almost)
to distraction and tortured beyond endurance,!
scratches and rubs till the skin is broken and bleeds^
1 but this only aggravates and spreads the disease.
The humors and poisons that produce the itching eruption, roughness and redness of the
skin, must, be rooted out before there . is complete relief from the terrors of Eczema.
Nothing applied externally does any permanent good, for whenever the blood is overheated,
or the skin is reacting during Spring and Summer, the disease breaks out again. You
can’t rely upon washes, soaps and salves, or such things as are applied to the surface, for:
they do not reach the seat of the trouble, which is internal and deeply implanted in the
system; the blood is aflame with the itching, burning humors, which are carried by the j
circulation to the surface and are being constantly forced out through the glands and pores
of the skin, and you can never heal the sores or stop the aggravating eruptions with ex-
ternal applications.
W To neutralize the acids in the blood and expel the humors and poisons is the only way;
to get permanently rid of this torturing skin trouble, and no remedy known does this so!
quickly and thoroughly as S. S. S. It purifies the blood and restores it to health, and the
outbreak of the poison through the skin ceases, and the sores and eruption gradually,
disappear. S. S. S. builds up the thin acid blood, makes it rich and strong, and restores
to it all the elements of nutrition, and drives from the circulation all impurities; and
under the tonic effect of *.S. S. S. the general system is invigbrated and toned' up, and you
not only get rid of your old skin trouble, but the health is benefited in every way. S. S. S.
being a strictly vegetable medicine, acts gently, leaving!
no bad after-effects, as do Arsenic, Potash and other
minerals which are usually prescribed in skin diseases.
# Eczema cannot be cured by anything applied to the
surface of the body; the blood must be purified and the
cause removed, and in no other way can this deep-seated
skin disease he reached. If you have Tetter, Psoriasis,
Salt Rheum, Nettle Rash, or any form of Eczema, you
will find S. S. S. does its work well and thoroughly, and relieves the itching and burning,
soreness and pain, and soon produces a lasting cure.

ECZEMA KEPT SPREADING.

Six years ago my wife had a breaking-out below
her knees. At first red bumps appeared, but soon
white, husky scabs came, and when these would
shed off the plaoe became red again, and would
itch and burn so that she found it impossible to
1 sleep. At times a yellow water ran from the
bumps, and it kept getting worse and worse.
Our family physician pronounced it Eczema, and
! prescribed ointments and powders, but it kept
i spreading, breaking out on her body and arms,
; and almost dosed up her ears The druggist at
Garner told me to try S. S. S., whioh she did, and
after taking several bottles was cured, and is well
to-day and has beeh for years.
