THE FIRST LETTER A Woman Writes. The first letter that a sick woman should write or have some one write for her i* to Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y.. asking him if "Favorite Prencbiption” 1* suitable for her case, and he will frankly tell her so if he thinks It Is. He may have to ask some questions before be can tie sure just what the trouble Is. If you are suffering from uterine disease, the symptoms of which are headache, backache, sideache, pain In various parts of the body, especially In the pelvic region, bearing-down. Inflammation. ulceration, then Dr. Pierce will advise you to use his "Favokitk PbxecßirriON ” for he has had a wonderful experience In the use of this remedy. It Is NOT A PATENT MEDICINE but it is a VERITABLE PRESCRIPTION that iecaiHl' his "favorite” when he was engaged In private practice forty years ago and found that ft cured more than nine out of ten of all such cases that came under his care. The doctor even then found scores and hundreds of women who were being improperly treated because their troubles were not understood and he determined to place this remedy that he hud used so sue issfully within reach of the multitudes who were in such sore need of It. He made it eilicleut, agreeable to taste,

TWO GAMES PostofHce Boys Won Saturday White Sox Defeated at Portland Sunday by Score of Five to One. The poßtoffioe team completely ■ -mothered the Peterson aggregation with tuns Saturday afternoon at Steele's pirk. and hadjthat team shut out until the eighth inning, when several lucky hits combined with two costly errors, gave PsterI son three runs. Dorwin. who pitched for the postotTioe boys had his opponnents completely at his mercy, and the Peterson boys went franVo trying to connect with the sphere. The postoftice boys hit often and hard and scored at will The score: 123456 7 > i R H E Peterson—o 0000003032 t> P. O. —6 11 30010 x 12 12 V Batteries—Peterson and Lol»enstine. Dorwin and Smith. In a game that was replete with sensational fielding, the White Sox of this city went down in defeat yesterday at Portland, by a score of five to one. The W bite Sox put up a tine game of ball, and with just an even break on luck would have won the game. As it was, their errors proved most costly and the game was lost early in the fight. The locals could not hit when hits meant runs and several times men died on bases. The Portland boys put up a fast game and hit lucky and Consequently profited by the same. The boys claim to have been afforded fine treatment and may return again this season: 1 2 34 567 g 9 R H E Port. SjX— 0100000 0 1 6 6 Batteies—Robison and Colchin; Fink and Begman. Knox and Gotland. Scotland owes to Knox not its exist- I Ing Presbyterian government—this was the subsequent work of Andrew Melville—but that which is the chief feature and main strength of Presbyteri-' anism— viz, th? full recognition (lack- . Ing in Episcopacy) of the Christian laity In the administration of the chunh. combined with that orderly subornation (which Congregationalism fails to secure! of the whole chunk to one representative and supreme- authority.

When I first crawled In among the I bushes close to the nest the little mother darted at me ami poised a foot j from my nose, as If to stare me out jof countenance. She looced me all | over from bead to foot twice. Then ; she seemed convinced that I was harm- | lw »- Sli? whirled and sat on the nest e *ge i The bantling* opened wide their hungry mouths. She spread her tail like a , flicker and braced herself against the nest side. She craned her neck and ■ drew her dagger-like bill straight up above the nest. She plunged it down i the baby’s throat to the hilt and started a series of gestures that seemed fashioned to puncture him to the toe*, i Then she stabbed the other baby until it made me shudder. It looked like the murder of the infants. But they were nut mangled and bloody. They were getting a square meal after the usual humming bird method of regurgitation. They ran out their slender tongues to lick the honey from their bills. How they IlkeJ it! Then she settled down and rutiled up her breast feathers to let her babies cuddle close to her naked bosom. Occasionally she reached under to caress them with whispering* ,f mother love.—Country Calendar. SURE HER TOOTH WAS OUT. Force of Imnalnatlon ■ * Hiempllfird In n llentlet’e Chair. Dentists have a splendid opportunity I of studying the power of imagination. I A New York practitioner byway of il- i lustration told a reporter about one of I his women patients. She entered. ac- ! companies by her husband, and, point- : Ing to her swollen face, asked the ■ dentist to extract the offending tooth. ; He placed her in the chair and. taking ' the small hand glass which dentists use. put it into her mouth for the purpose of examining the molar which was t > lie extracted. The- glass had no sooner touched the , tooth than she uttered a frightful | scream and. bouncing out of the chair, i rushed out into the waiting room, cry- ] Ing that her jaw was broken. The united efforts of her husband and the ‘ dentist were for some time unable to ' j persuade her that the tooth was not extracted and that she could not possibly have is-en hurt. After examining her mouth with the aid of a glass she finally became convinced that ttie tooth ' was still in its place. Taking her seat | in the chair again, she submitted to the : operation of extracting the tooth without a murmur and expressed her surprise that the pain was so slight. Srldliti Powder* In Slam. Sale of seidiits powders is prohibited in 81am. Some fifty years ago I’hra Mongkut, the then ruling emperor, bought a box of seidlitz powders from a trader missionary, and, misinterpreting the Instructions on the lid, mixed the six blue papered powders into one tumbler of water and the six white papered ones into another. Then he proceeded to swallow the resultant decoctions, one after the other. The result to the monarch may be imagined, j In consequence nf tills the further sale of the remedy In question was prohibited—a prohibition which still remains In force. Proof of OriKlnalltx. “Yes,” remarked Mrs. Upstart's, "that picture is an original Itapfia?!. Husband had heard so much about j counterfeit Raphaels that he not only ordered this from an artist upon whom be could depend, but he went so far as I to go to the studio every day while It was being painted, so you can take my ] word for It that this Is a real original Raphael.”—Boston Transcript. Coming Aroond. Mrs. Caffrey—And how Is that pretty young widow? Is she reconciled to | her loss yet? Mrs. Malnprop—No, she ain’t exactly reconciled yet, but they i do say she’s got the man picked out. And Wnr Cnnflnord, Miss Goodley—Bess says she’s ready to make up If you are Miss Cutting—j Tell her I’d be ready to make up too I If I bad a complexion as muddy as hers.—l’lillddelpt'la Ledger.
