Hood & Co., Lowell, Mass.; “For a number of years I have been troubled with a general tired feeling,shorTness'ofbWaffi pain in the baek, and constipation. I could get. only little rest at night on account of the paip and had no appetite whatever. I was that tired In my limbs that I gave out before half the day was gone.

I took sin bottles of Dr. Pierce’s Favorito Prescription, and was entirely cured of both in Six months; it is four years this mouth, since I was entirely well of both those diseases and have never had any signs of their appearance since and I am satisfied tho * Favorite Prescription’saved my life, for I could hardly walk around when I commenced taking that medicine and 1 think it is a God’s blessing to me that I took it. i I was pronounced incurable by tho best doctors here in the West. I gave up oil hopes and made up my mind that I was to be taken away from my husband and baby of two years old. I was sick all of tho time —could not ent anything at all. In one week, after beginning tho uso of tho ‘ Favorite Prescription’ my stomach was so much better that I could eat anything : I could see that I was gaining all over, and my husband then went end got me six bottles ; I took three of them and my stomach did not bother mo any more. We sent to you and got tho People’s Common Senso Medical Adviser, and found my case described just as I was: we did what the book told us, in every way ; in one month’s time I could see I was much better than I had been; we still kept on just as the book told us, and in three months I stopped taking medicine, and to-day, I can proudly «ay I am a well women, yes, am well, strong and healthy. When I began to take your medicine my face was poor and eyes looked dead. I could not enjoy myself anywhere. I Was tired and sick all the time.

Chicago Herald. Kentucky editors cannot be too careful about what they print. The citizens of the blue grass commonwealth are touchy, and statements published with the most amiable intentions are likely to cause trouble. Here is the editor of the Mount Sterling Timos, for example,who printed wljat he thought was a graceful obituary notice, winding up with the perfunctory statement that “the deceased had gone to a happier home.” He is now the defendant in a libel suit brought by the widow, and when he goes home after seeing the paper to press he takes the middle of the street and carries his shot gun at full cock. The notice was gratis, too. Edmund Yates reports that the Queen offered to make Mrs. Gladstone a countess if the retiring Premier didn’t care fo r an earldom for himself.

I recommend your medicines to all of my neighbors and especially ‘Favorite Prescription ’ to all women who are suffering. Havo induced several to try it, and it has proved good for them." Y ours truly, Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is a positive cure for the most complicated and obstinate 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.” Dr. Pierce’s. Favorite Prescription is a scientific medicine, carefully compounded by on experienced and skillful physician, and adapted to woman’s delicate organization. It is purely vegetable in its composition and perfectly harmless in its effects tn any condl tion of the system. For morning sickness or nausea, due to pregnancy, weak stomach, indigestion, dyspepsia and kindred symptoms, its use will prove very beneficial.

THEY EAT INSECTS.

Flowers That Catch, Devour and Digest Insects Daily. Many Diflbrent Species—Sketch or the Growth of the Pitcher Plant in the North and South and How Its Victims Are Trapped. Fifteen years ago scientists. first learned with certainty that pitcher plants, among other varieties, were carnivorous, i. e.. that they caught and digested insects. Professor Wilson has discovered that this power can be iost by a kind of retrogression; and he has found a species which, though it still catches insects, has no longer a stomach in which to digest them. No investigation of -these curious plants by mechanical analysis had yet taken place and it was only fifteen years ago that three German botanists detected a peptone-forming ferment in certain plants. Dr. Wilson has confined most of his attention to the genus sarraeenica, which has eight different varieties of insect-catching plants. One of these is found in Massachusetts, the rest in the southern states. During the course of Ths Trivestigatibns the professor spent a summer in the cranberry marshes of Massachusetts, where the northern variety is most plentiful, a summer in North Carolina and a winter and spring on the Gulf coast of Florida.

The sarraeenica plant has leaves shaped like holiow cones. The top or mouth of each cone has over it an oval flap. Along the outside of each leaf are glands which exude a sweet liquid. Feeding from this the insects follow the glands upwards till they re ch the opening at the top. The edge of the interior and the inner walls are as smooth as glass, so that once having slipped over the edge there is nothing to stop the victim’s fall to the very bottom of the cone. Further down there are on the inside coarse hairs pointing downward which botanists say utterly prevent insects from crawling up again. Near the bottom of the cone, inside, are glands which exude another liquid so freely as to till sometimes, in a short lime, from an inch and a hnlf to two inches of its interior cavity. When this liquid covers’ the snared' victims' it automatically acidulates, a ferment' takes place- and everything but the hard shells and bones of the insects la absorbed. In the southern plant the leafy flap above the core bends over to cover the aperture so as to keep out rain and water.

Noticing while in the cranberry region of Massachusetts th it the flap of the plant there stood straight up so bs to admit the rain water, Dr. Wilson determined to investigate the matter. Accordingly he procured bell jars ana covered a number of pitcher plants with these so as to keep out the rain. Upon turning them over he found each cone partially full of the curious liquid which the inner glands exude. Taking samples of this fluid from a number of leaves he found that it was not acid. Arguing, however, that the acidulation might not have taken place, the professor added an acid and then placed in the preparation several pieces of nitrogenous substances. After soaking in the liquid some time he examined them, but the microscope showed no eating away of the edges which would mark the digestive process. Chemical analysis showed only the faintest trace of pepsin, the digesting principle of the animal stomach. Impelled by curiosity to continue his investigations, Dr. Wilson found that the Massachusetts plant had no complete honey glands on the outside of its leaves, but only the rudiments of them. It still caught some insects, but their bodies, unaffected chemically, simply remained in the internal cavity covered by a mixture of water and the plant’s exudation until they rotted away, when, doubtless, some of their parts were absorbed by the leaves.

Here, then, was a variety of the pitcher pin nt which had retrograded from some unknown cause and had lost the use of some of its organs. In general shape this northern plant closely resembles its southern sister. Its hood only is thrown back, while that of the other variety is inclined forward over the aperture of the cone. The early seed leaves of both varieties are identical, a proof. Dr. Wilson thinks, of their both having been originally of the same plate. This curious loss of organic power in the Northern pitcher plant the pro-fe-sor only attempts to explain suggestively. It has been noticed that the Southern pitcher plant, the Sarracenia variolaria, as it is called, maintains in iis stomach, while digesting, about the same temperature as that of the ; nimal stomach, i. e.. nine-ty-eight degrees. Dr. Wilson suggests that the pitcher plant, when carried north to Massachusetts, found there a climate so cold that its organ could not raise the temperature of its stomach to lhe necessary heat. Thus, gradually, it has loot the use of its glands through non-use. The Pinguieulla plant, another insecttivorous plant, has been used by Scandinavian farmers and peasants to curdle milk.

A Good Barrain.

A schoolboy defined strong drink aa “the stuff that caused the most human hnppiness—by lettin’ it alone.” Here Patrick seems to give credit to the ruin-seller by n< similar back-handed processor reasoning: At a temperance meeting where several related their experiences, a humorous Irishman was acknowledged to be the chief B)>eaker. He h d on a pair of fine new boots. “Jjaid he “A week after I signed the pledge I met an old friend, and he says, 'Them’s a fine pair of boots you have on.’ ‘They are,’ says I ‘and by the same token 'twas the saloon-keeper who gave them to me.’ “•That was generous of him,’ says he. “ ‘lt was,’ ‘but I mnde a bargain with him. He was to,keep his drink, and J was to keep my money. My money bought me these fine boots. I got th« best and I'm going k stick to it.’ ”

George Meredith rejoices in a profusion of hair, which falls in artistic neglige round his classically chiseled face, and be looks younger than his years, which are sixty-two. Oscar Wilde has described his style as “chaos illumined by brilliant flashes of lightning,” and, save by the inner cult, no one really cares for his books. Mr. Levi P. Morton, who is in Paris, has almost entirely recovered from the effects of the operation which was performed upon his left foot in December last. Mr, Morton expects to be able to walk out of doors in a few davs.

IS LIFE SHORT OR LONG?

If life is so short as some think it is, it may be made to seem much longer ana sweeter by a better care for our comforts. Minor troubles are much magnified by neglect and delay. We give too much time to hunting up causes when we onght to deal promptly with effects. This is much the case with pain, which should be cured at once and cause looked into afterwards. Misslda'M. Fleming, 7 S. Carey St., Baltimore, Md., states that for years she was subject to frequent attacks of neuralgia, and tried any number of remedies without avail. She was given quinine, which she says affected her nervous system. She suffered night and day during these attacks until she tried St. Jacobs Oil, which Anally cured her.

Deafness Cannot Be Cared.

By local applications as they cannot reach the diseased portion ot the ear. There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When the tube is Inflamed you have a rumbling sound or imperfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed, Deafness is the result, and unless the inflammation can be taken out and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine c<see out of ten are caused by catarrh, which is nothing but an inflamed condition of the mucous surfaces. We will give One Hundred Dollars for any case of deafness (caused by catarrh) that cannot be cured by Hall’s Catarrh Cure. Send for circulars: free. —— :—F. J. CHENEY & CO., Toledo, O. Car 75c.
