perhaps you will find somothi & aid you if you are in poor health, a§ £0 many women are. Look among your female frie and you will find scarcely one whofcis not ailing in some way. Look again and you will find a large per cent, of them nervous and tired. They have lost elasticity and feel as though they weighed a ton, or perhaps the brain feels light and dizzy the memory weak and treacherous.

How many women have grown dis. couraged after years of doctoring without relief.

Time and money are thrown away in dosing with medicine from which they gain only temporary aid. They do not sleep well, have headaches, nervous prostration, backaches, neuralgia, rheumatism, melancholia, leuchorrhea, dysmenorhoea, ulcerations, displacement and other irregularities.

Nervous diseases include all afflictions of the brain, spinal cord and nerves. Pains or congestions in the spinal cord, which constitute most backaches and tenderness, are spinal or nervous diseases, which nine times out of ten, are reflected from the female organs, and are sympathetic only* These may be removed by a proper use of Elzena which is applied direct to the weak parts and thus have an advantage of their full power. Price per box $1.00 and $2.oo.

Let Love alone. Hp 1b divinely ltd, And teelB tb« way bia Veiled «yee do not MS. Kd throne nor principalities hath he, Nor tiny pluco to lay hie royal head. No care hath he about big daily bread: He recks not whether he be bond or free But, full of faith and sweet security. He goes forth cheerily to woo and wed.

For Love believes that all God hath is hi*. Freely he takes, freely he gives away. With melting, mingling touch of hand and lip. Let Love alone. He claimeth all there is. The whole world trembles with his potent sway, The king who carries neither purse nor scrip. —Anne L. Muzzey in New York Bun.

SLAVE RAIDS IN AFRICA.

Hore Than Hundred Villages Destroyed In One Campaign. As we approached the falls we saw that the river banks had been depopulated and the villages were in ashes. We passed dead bodies floating in the river. Canoes were standing on end like hollowed oolnmns crowds of fugitives were afloat and hiding among the reedy islands. These were all signs of a general terror, but we could get no information of its character. Vague ideas of an invasion from some savage tribe eame to our minds, and now and then we had a misgiving that there most be Arab slavers in the neighborhood.

Continuing onr ascent, on the third day we came in sight of a huge Arab camp on the right bank, and before long we discovered that the Arabs of Nyangwe (Livingstone's farthest point), having beard the most exaggerated reports of our successful descent of the Kongo in 1877, had hastened after us to reap a harvest of ivory and slaves. They had been too successful. Over 118 villages had been destroyed below Stanley falls alone, a rich plunder of ivory was in their camp, and several hundred slaves, old and young, were herded like goats and heavily fettered in the slave pen. It then appeared that while we had been negotiating with the negro chiefs along the river, making roads, building stations and hauling steamers overland, the Arabs of Nyangwe had been coming down the river, laying the oountry waste. We had at last met, about 50 miles below the falla. A glance at the scenes of the camp was sufficient to reTeal what a future awaited the Kongo valley had we not conoeived the projeot of opening the river to civilizing influences. There was not a moment to lose. We had no authority to open fire on the miscreants. They were subjects of the Prince of Zanzibar, who was a protege of England, and to plunge into hostilities with them might possibly involve ns in serious complications. But while we dared not use force we believed that by continuing the same system we had found so successful with the native chiefs we could check the audacity of the slavers by our mere presence among them. After some days spent in cautious and friendly negotiations with the

Arabs we were permitted to establish a station at the falls, and after seeing it well advanced we turned the prows of our steamers down river toward Leopoldville.—Henry M. Stanley in Century. "'V ft

No Kick Coming.

One day when a coupe driven along Broadway at the rate of ten miles an hour had come within a hairbreadth of running me down I followed it up for three or four blooks until it eame to a halt beside the curbstone. "Do you know," I said to the driver, who grinned as he saw me approach, "that you nearly ran me down ten minutes ago?" "Yes, sir," he promptly replied. "You had me in between your carriage and a cable car, and it was a close call." "Yes, it \v :s, sir." "Yon dulu't eveu try to pull up your horse," I resisted. "No, six." "Then ,\ov. didn't care whether you ran rno or not?" "No. sir." "Well, that's cool! Are you in the habit of Lilliuf? pi-opla who may be crossing tho trec you come along?" "Not in the liubit, no, sir. You see, it was this wry.

The Oldegt Known.

A French medical paper prints what Is believed to be the oldest known medical recipe. It is a tonic for the hair, and its date is 4000 B. C. It was prepared for an Egyptian queen and required dogs' paws and asses' hoofs to be boiled With dates in oil.

Gold, silver, copper, iron, tin, lead, mercury, sulphur, carbon, antimony, bismuth and zino were the only minerals known at the time of the discovery of America.

The ancients, according to Pliny, Bade a very excellent sympathetic ink, Uing new milk as the basis.

An interesting story is told by T. (X Curtis, of LioWville, Columbia ooonty, •bout Tom Scott, the millionaire lumberman, who died some years aga Mr. Curtis came to Wisconsin in the forties and engaged in hauling goods from Milwaukee to the pineries. While in Mil* waukee he met a young man who had fallen into ill luck. He had a few land

Joped

'arrants, however, from which he to realize a few hundred dollar* These warrants were given to Mr. Curtis to sell He afterward disposed of them for several times the amount the young man had expected to receive for them.

In the meantime the young fellow had gone to New York city. The money was forwarded to him and reached him in a very opportune time, being the means of placing him in a position where he beuame, later, the head of one of the largest dry goods firms in the great metropolis.

Some years afterward Mr. Curtis visited New York, where he was joyously deceived and royally entertained by the merchant prince whom he had "placed on his feet," as he himself expressed it, a few years before. Tom Scott at this time had a sort of store at "the Bapids," but his stock bad so dwindled down that he remarked to Curtis that he would have to do some bard scratching in order to obtain a new stock, Curtis, remembering his New York friend, signed a joint note with Scott and obtained from the gentleman the desired goods. "That," says Mr. Curtis, "was Tom Scott'8 starter in life."—Milwaukee Wisconsin.

The Botcher and His Customer*. "What're legs o' mutton selling for?" asked Qriddlerack, entering the butcher's shop of Cleaves.

Cleaves looks about him cautiously and then whispers, "We're asking 14, bnt we'll let you have it for 18." "Come now," says Griddleraok,"none of yourshinanigans. You just sold a leg to fiabbage for 19)£."

To this Cleaves promptly replies:'' Bnt not for such mutton as this. Ioould sell you such mutton as I sold to Rabbage for '10 cents—if I had any left" "Nonsense I I saw yon when yon out off, and I know it eame off the same •beep that this did."

Cleaves—You're a sharp one, yon are, Griddlerack. There's no giBtting the start o' you. And ^nobody wants to. jLeaatwise, I don't. Let me tell you the dead truth about it, Griddleraok. Babbage's leg did come off the same critter, and 1 did

Bell him for 12%, bnt what's

fellow going to do? Rabbage is snob confoundedly close buyer, it's next to impossible to sell him. So when he came in just now I put the price way down, bnt he didn't get ahead of ms so 'much as he thought his was going to. 1 oheated him on the weight—see?

Qriddlerack—Oh, that so? All right then I'll take that leg.—Boston Transcript.

A Guopcu Idea.

One of the most characteristic features 'of European prisons as a whole is that prison era are allowed to have a portion of their earnings. This system prevails

Snssia,

France, Germany, Italy, Switzerland, Sweden, Denmark and other eonntries. The amount earned by .the prisoners varies considerably where it depends upon piece work. In France the average salary of the prisoner is 85 cents a day. Of this amount the prisoner is allowed to spend one-half while in prisfor supplementary food and clothing, postage, etc., though no expenditure is made without the approval of the ad ministration. The other half is reserved until the time of his discharge. A three years' prisoner has to his credit on leaving an average of $60, a four years" prisoner $70 and a five years' prisoner about $90.—Chicago JJpcord.

Experimenting. wwj

Some gentlemen, eruising round a part of the Irish coast, observing that about the same hour every day a boat containing two men and a woman took its passengers from the shore, and after a short time returned with them, inquired the reason. "My men," said one, "what makes you come out here every day? Is it that you like it so much?" "Oh, your honor, not at all, but, your honor, the wife and me's going soon toAustraly, and bo we're just practicing the saysickness, that we may be used to it when we start." "Well, and do you find yourselves improving?" "Ah, Bure, your honor, the wife's ill •very day, but she's getting on purtily I" —Strand Magazine

First of Railway Train. A A country boy who was brought up in a remote region of Scotland had occasion !to accompany his father to a village near which a branch line of railway passes. The corning after his arrival, when sauntering in the garden behind the house in which they were staying, he beheld with wondering eyes a train go by. For a moment he stood staring at it with astonishment, and then, running into the house, he said: "Fayther, fayther, come oot. There's a smiddy ran off wi' a row o' houses, an it's awa* doon by the back o' the town."—London Telegraph.

Oat of Hli Xilne.

The Boston Transcript reports that two gentlemen fell into a talk about bookB. "What do yon think of the 'Origin ol Species?' asked one man. "I have never read it," was the other's reply. "In fact," he added, "I am not interested in financial subjeots."

Literary Versatility.

An editor received the other day a riouj application for help. The writer caid: "lam aorry you do not like my xomance, for I feel that I have the secret in my veins. If, however, yon canot accept my book or my poetry, will on give me a berth as a heavy good* porter?"—London Bookman.

A tract of timber near South Bend is a great roosting place for crows. Three thousand signatures were obtained at Marion against the cigarette.

Now comes the Marion Chron'cle, discrediting the latest ground-bog theory Enforcing the liquor law at Muncie Sunday made a great demand for bottled goods. ,,

A formidable movement hae been inaugurated at Jeffersouville for cheaper telephone service.

The late Mrs. Elizabeth Kelley, of Frankfort, handsomely remembered the extension fund of the Christian church in her will.

William F, Steger, city marshal of Tipton, who died several days apo, was the first republican ever elected to that office in that city.

Carl Crumpacker, night switchman in the Monon yards at Lafoyette, fell under the wheel while making a coupling, losing his left leg at the thigh.

Mrs. Experience Smith, who recently died near New Albany, v?as probably the oldest woman in Floyd county. She was born in 1800, and her parents settled in New Albany in 1818.

Many friends at Cambridge City joined in celebrating the golden wedding anniversary of Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Dinwiddie, all of whose married life has been spent in that place.

Mrs. Mary Tiernan, of Ft. Wayne, who recently died in that city, spent sixty years of her life in Allen county, She was noted for her strength of character and Christian graces.

The New Albany Banking Company wrecking cases, involving Dr. W. L. Breyfogle, I. S. Winstandley and Clarence J. Frederick, have again been continued, this time until the last week in April.

It develops that Harry Vansickle, arrested at Frankfort for robbing a money drawer iB a hopeless case, because of softening of the brain. He has been released and returned to his friends at Paris, 111.

Mrs. Verne Paine, of South Marion, is said to have been driven insane through the abduction of one of her children by her husband, who has abandoned her. She is under constant surveilance to prevent suicide.

nuch Gambling.

Said a well known citizen the other day, "since I have lived here I have never known so many gambling rooms and Be much gambling as there is in Crawfordsville," after which he proceeded to name a number of placeB where the tiger could be seen flourishing. To this a sport wbo has ample means of knowing said, "he knowB little or nothing about it. In fact the hard times effects ganbling every bit ae much as anything else. The sporting men of thiB town have had lean money and done less playiQg during the past twelve months, than for five years past It is the same in scores of other cities of the we&t. No money, no gamble

Illness of Elder M. M. VanCleave At his residence on Bouth Walnut street the venerable Elder M. M- VanUeave has been confined to his bed for some weeks from eickness and it is feared cannot recover. The Elder is one of the pioneer preachers of Indiana, having been engaged in the ministry for over a half century. He has resided here since 1824, there being, we believe, few or no older residents here. His life has been a worthy one in every respect and his influence for good has been extensive.

^lmost every man in America has some digestive trouble. When men meet, the greeting usually is

Well how are you?" That develops health talk. The man who has no stomach or bowel trouble is almost a curiosity. Trouble .is men take no care of themselves. Thej^pork as if their bodies •were made of iron

and their brains of steel. They eat as if they had copper stomachs and bowels of brass. By and by, overworked nature rebels. Then come headaches, nervousness, bad blood, liver and kidney troubles health goes and strength goes. It is really wonderful how imich abuse the human body will stand! It is equally wonderful how quickly it will recover from abuse if one helps in a rational, natural way.

It was to give just such help that Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets were prepared. They are for constipation and torpid liver, and in curing those derangements—cure many complications and resultant diseases, such as sick and bilious headache, dizziness, sour stomach, loss of appetite, indigestion. or dyspepsia, windy belchings, "heartburn," pain and distress after eating, and kindred derangements of the liver, Stomach and bowels. They are mild in action merely supplementing nature. They are the result of years of study and experience, and there is nothing else like them—nothing so effective. If your druggist tries to sell you something' else he is either ignorant or makes more money out of the other thing.
