No Report Yet. ■y United Preu Newt Association. Huntington, Ihd., Feb. 7.—The special grand jury investiagting the death of R. J. Holthouse are also going into other affairs. A report was expected today, but none was made and it is not known when they will complete their work. Editor Acquitted.

This precedent may allow other journalists to abuse the ruler with impunity. THt MALE —“ ' Carious TrAft He Develops For, the Lady of His Choice. In the American Naturalist j, /-L. Hancock gives an interesting description of some of the habits of the striped meadow cricket The. most striking part of the account deals with the allurements which the male crickets possess. When he wishes to attract the female the * male cricket raises his fore wings vertically above his head and by rubbing them over each other produces a high pitched singing, or, perhaps better, shrilling. When the female’s attention has been attracted she goes to the male and proceeds to take advantage of the refreshments offered. Upon th® Hate’s back, situated well forward on ths thorax, is a little depression or well in which a small quantity of semifluid material is secreted. Climbing up on the male’s back, the female eats this apparently delicious morsel with great eagerness. It Is evidently something especially choice which is formed there for her especial benefit. This proceeding suggests that treating as a means of winning a iddy’s love Is not confined to the allurements of ics cream and soda water. — Collier’s Weekly. «• -4 w — —■* When Goldemltn Wrote.

It is “The History jf Rome,’’ by Oliver Goldsmith Gold smith’s name takes one back to the literary fellows of that day, the back work they did to keep life In them, for when Goldsmith was at work writing that history he was doing twenty different things besides, little odds and ends that brought money for bis daily bread, with a scolding landlady laying down the law to him, for it was the time when the great Dr. Johnson •thought himself lucky when he aenld dine in a cellar on sixpence worth of tripe and a pennyworth of bread and wipe his fingers on the back of a Newfoundland dog after his greasy meal!"

Was originally a number in the opera “Clari, the Maid of Milan,” a production brought out in 1823. The opera was a failure, and nothing is now known of it save the one song, which became instantly popalar. Over 100,000 copies were sold in the first year of its publication, and the sale in one form or another has been constant even since the first appearance of this beau* tlfvi theme. The melody is a SiciHaff folk song and was adapted to the words by Payne himself When a man says, “Os course ft's no business of mine,” It is a sure sign that he is going to do the best bo can tc bake It his business. - * Don't express a positive opinion tin leas you perfectly understand Wbai , you are talking about

Girlhood, Womanhood, Motherhood.

The first lesson that the young girl has of womanhood is usually a painful one. She learns to know what headache means, and backache, and sometimes is sadly borne down by this new experience of life. All the pain and misery which young girls commonly experience at such a time may, in almost every instance, be entirely prevented or cured by the use of Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription. It establishes regularity. It tones upthe general health, and cures headache, backache, nervousness, chorea, or St. Vitus’s dance, and other consequences of womanly weakness or disease. MOTHER OF THE FAMILY. The anxious mother of the family oftentimes carries the whole burden of responsibility so far as the home medication of common ailments of the girls or boys are concerned. The cost of the doctor’s visits are very often much too great. At such times the mother is invited to write to Dr. R. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y., for medical advice, which is given free. Correspondence is held sacredly confidential. IT STANDS ALONE. "Favorite Prescription” is the only medicine for women the makers of which are not afraid to print just what it is made of on every bottle wrapper. It is the only medicine for women every ingredient of which has the unanimous endorsement of all the leading medical writers of this country, recommending it for the cure of the very same diseases for which this n Prescription” is advised. A MOTHER’S LOVE. A mother’s love is so divine that the roughest man cannot help but appreciate it as the crown of womanhood. However, motherhood is often looked forward to with feelings of great dread by most women. At such times a woman is nervous, dyspeptic, irritable, and she is in need of a uterine tonic and nervine, a strength builder to fit her for the ordeal. No matter how healthy or strong a woman may be she cannot but be benefited by taking Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription to prepare fofthe event. It makes childbirth easy ind often almost painless. ;DR. PIERCE’S FAVORITE PRESCRIPTION is a powerful, invigorating tonic. It imparts strength to the whole system and to the womb and its appendages in particular. For overworked ’’wornout,” " run-down,” debilitated teachers, milliners, dressmakers, seamstresses, "shop-girls,” housekeepers, nursing mothers and feeble women generally, Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is the greatest earthly boon, being unequaled as an appertizing cordial and restorative tonic. A STRENGTHENING NERVINE. "... "Favorite Prescription” is unequaled and is invaluable in allaying and subduing nervous excitability, irritability, nervous exhaustion, prostration, neuralgia, hysteria, spasms, chorea, or St. Vitus’s dance, and other distressing, nervous symptoms commonly attendant upon functional and organic disease of the womb. It indaces refreshing sleep and relieves mental anxiety and despondency. ? A SCIENTIFIC MEDICINE. Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is

a scientific medicine, carefully devised by an experienced and skillful physician, ana adapted to woman’s delicate organism. It is purely vegetable in its composition and perfectly harmless in its effects in any condition of the system. For morning sickness or nausea, weak stomach, indigestion, dyspepsia and kindred symptoms, it* use will prove very beneficial. ( CURES OBSTINATE CASES. ” Favorite Prescription ” is a positive cure for the most complicated and obstinate cases of leucorrhea, excessive flowing, painful menstruation, unnatural suppressions and irregularities, prolapsus or falling of the womb, weak back, " female weakness,” anteversion, retroversion, bearing-down sensations, chronic congestion, inflammation and ulceration of the womb, inflammation, pain and tenderness of the ovaries, accompanied with "internal heat.” HOW TO LOOK BEAUTIFUL. Young women or matrons should no* allow themselves to look sallow and wrinkled because of those pains and weaknesses which become chronic and are the result of colds, tight lacing, and the imprudent care of the womanly system. Many a woman would look beautiful, have healthy color and bright eyes if it were not for those drains on her strength and those weaknesses which come all too frequently and make her life miserable. There is a ready-to-use Prescription, used a great many years by Dr. R. V. Pierce in his large practice a* a Specialist in women’s diseases, which is not like the many "patent medicines” on the market, as it contains neither alcohol nor any narcotic, or other harmful drug. It is purely vegetable. It is known as Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription and is sold by druggists. DR. FIERCE’S PLEASANT PELLETS cure biliousness, sick and bilious headache, dizziness, costiveness, or const!]: ation of the bowels, loss of appetite,, coated tongue, sour stomach, windy belchings, " heartburn," pain and distress after eating? and kindred derangements of the liver, stomach and bowels. Persons subjected to any of thesa troubles should never be without a vial .of the "Pleasant Pellets* at hand. In proof of their superior excellence it can truthfully be said that they are always adopted as a boo«*ho>d remedy after the first trial. One little "Pellet” is a laxative, two are cathartic. They regulate, invigorate and cleanse the liver, stomach and bowels. As a "dinner pill,” to promote digestion, take one each day. To relieve the distress arising from overeating, nothing equals one of these little "Pellets.” They’re tiny, sugarcoated, anti-biliotig granules, scarcely larger than mustard seeds.
