Woman's most glorious endowment i the power to awaken and hold the pure and honest love of a worthy man. When she loses it and still loves on, . ao one in the wide world can know the heart agony she endures. The woman who suffers from weak ness and derangement of her special womanly or ganism soon loses the power to sway the heart of . man. tier general health suffers and she. loses " tier good looks, her attractiveness, her amiability and her power and prestige as a woman. Dr. R.V. Pierce, of Buffalo, N.Y., with the assistance of his staff of able physicians, has prescribed for and cured many thousands of women. He has devised a successful remedy for woman's ail ments. It is known as Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. It is a positive peeifio for the weaknesses and disorders peculiar to women. It purifies, regu lates, strengthens and heals.

No possible weather conditions can enable the South to raise a sufficient crop this year to take care even of this year's requirements, much less restore any of the deficiency in stocks as a result of last year's short crop. At least : 13,500,000 to 14,000,000 bales of cotton from the Soiith were needed by the world this year to take care of the requirements for the next twelve months, and to restore stocks to normal conditions, but we have entered the new crop year with a heavy deficiency from last year, and with the assurance that this year's crop will not equal this year's re quirements. We, believe . that no such critical condition has been laced by the cotton trade Blnce just after the close of the war, when it took the South a few! years to catch, up with the world's consumptive needs. In considering the present., situa tion, it-should be borne in mind that the average price per pound of mid diing cotton in New York lor the first few years after the war was as follows: Average New York - price per pound of middling.

After using Cuticura Soap and Ointment for about three days I saw a decided improvement and was entirely cured in two months." For the prevention and treatment of itching, burning, scaling eruptions and the promotion of permanent skin and ,hair health, Cuticura Soap and Cuticura Ointment are absolutely unrivaled in purity, efficacy and economy.

UIIDESD0R0 OIL JILL Telephone No. 63. mil and' Caskets from 2,097,254 bales in 1866 67 to 4,170,388 bale9 in 1873-74, an increase of about 100 per cent- in seven years. The price of middling cotton, as shown by these figures, ranged from an average for a full year of 43.20 cents per pound in 1865 66 to 17 cents per pound for a crop of over 4,170, 000 bales in 1873 74. Considering the increase in popula tion in the United States, now more than two and one-half times as great as it was in 1873-74 in numbers, and many times greater in consumptive power, bearing in mind the increased uses to which cotton is put and the vast expansion throughout the world for cotton, created by the increase in the world's population, and likewise the advance in business interests and civilization itself, a 12,000,000 bale crop today is relatively much small erras compared with, the world's needs than was a 4,000,000-bale crop in 1873 74. In the seven-year period quoted, running from 1865 66 to 1873 74, the world readily consumed the total production of cotton by the South at prices ranging between 17 cents a pound in the latter year to 43.20 cents per pound in the former. It is well to emphasize and reiter ate these facts, fjr they prove that the world can take the South's cotton even at a high price when the supply 2 1 A. . .1 ! il ia us it was iasi yfur uuu is tuis year far short of the world's pressing requirements. In lS04 the Manufacturers Record pointing to the change that bad come about in the cotton situation, and warning the cotton manufacturers of the world that there must be a grad ual rise in prices, republished an ar ticle by Mr. Daniel F. Kellogg, fl3 nancial editor of the New York Sun, in the course of which he said: "For many years spinners or their agents have had the whip band tf the Southern cotton planters and have been enabled to keep cotton prices exceedingly low. or years Liverpool buj'ers made parclically what price , for cotton they wished time and again frustrating the efforts of Southern planters to secure a fair return for the ir toil. Now the dread balance of Nature is turned against them, and their undue gains in times past are pitilessly wrested from them There is this thought, too, that is up permost in the mind of all those who looked at the matter from end to end that it Li liiehly improbable that for years to come American cotton will sell at what may be called low figures, that is to say, prices that will i not make the industry a very profit- able one. for American producers. There are those who hold that the high current prices will develop cot ton raising on a large scale in other countries, so that our planters wilt nod their market taken from them. But nowhere else in the world can cotton be produced as cheaply as here. Efforts to stimulate growth of the article elsewhere in competition with our own product have long been unprofitable."

GOOD TIME TO DETHRONE OUR OWN KINGS. Baltimore Sun. - The revolution in Portugal that baa wept tff h'a throne the young King who disgraced his high office, though due largely to local conditions, is a fr sh. instance of the world-wide de mand of the masses for a larger share in government. Changes have fol lowed one another with startling rapidity. In Russia the Czar has been compelled to establish the Douma. Turkey has abolished Its absolute monarchy, instituted a Con stitutional government and holds its former Sultan a prisoner. Persia has expelled its Sultan, created a Parliament and has become a limited monarchy. The protest against privilege in England has taken the form of a demand that the powers of the House of Lords be modified or the upper house abolished. Spain for months has been on the verge of revolution and threatens to follow the example of Portugal. Norway, Sweden and Belgium are governed by kings who are only nominal mon- arcbs. Even Germany ha9 consid ered it wise to curb the tongue of the Kaiser and remind him that be is not a Caesar. Venezuela has oer thrown the dipt a tor Castro and Nic aragua has driven Z'laya into exile. There are mutterings of discontent against the iron rule of Diaz in Mex ico. In Japan a radical change in Ministry wad brought about by a protest against the rule of the mili tary class and a demand that the commercial and industrial interests be given a ihare ia the government China has at last awakened from her long sleep, is establishing public schools and colleges, building rail ways, an army and navy, and has THE LAZY CHILD.

For this we must largely give thanks to the scientific spirit, which is daily recognizing more and more of the affairs of life which belong to its department. It is coming into fashion not to to kick the man who is down, but to call a committee to inquire into why he is down, and that leads naturally to helping him up. This new method is to be welcomed most of all, as it bears upon the destinies of little children. The new scientific pedagogics no longer divides children summarily into good and bad, stupid and clever. On the contrary, it takes close cognizance of that very woidcrfil relation between mind and body, stomach and brain, and learns there by that persons, and above all chil dren, are much more naturally di vided into the sick or the well, the hungry or the fed, the weak or the strong. Both in this country and in Europe investigations of this matter have been made with significant results. One fact proved by them is that there is no such thing as a "lazy" child. The normal child is interested, alert, bright minded, full of waking curios ities about the world into which he has come, and endowed with an al most unquenchable physical vivacity. What, then, is the matter with the Utile, inert, stupid, dull eyed crea tures, forever at the bottom of the class, who never put a question, or seem to pass a given point? The matter is that they are ill, some of them are hungry, and it is as hopeless to expect a child to study well when he needs food as it would be to expect a fire that needs fuel to burn well. The hunger may be due to an actual lack of food, or it may be that the teeth are in such bad condi tion that the child can not chew, and therefore does not digest. Or it may be that the food offered to it at borne is entirely un?uied to its needs. Some of the children can not hear well and some can not see. They do not complain, because they do not know what is tbje matter. They ac cept constant rebuke and defeat with the dumb mystification of ignorance. Many of them hive never drawn one natural breath since their birth, owing to the presence of enlarged tonsils and adenoids. These children cau never compete with their fellows until all these hin drances have been removed. Some recent . investigations made by a French physician show that among well nourished children only nineteen per cent, have physical defects, while among the poorly nourished over sixty per cent, surlier from these de fects.

Even a father may not fully know the capabilities of his son. This was evidently the case with Jesse II Grant, according to a correspondent of the New York Evening Post, who tells the following story: "One day in November, 1865, 1 was on a Penn sylvania railroad train, east hound from Pittsburg. "In the next seat was an old fellow that's the way you wouiu uescrinenitn with 'coun try written all over him. He opened a conversation with our party, and asked if we were going to ashing ton. Said he was going there; and added, with pauses, 'I've got a son in Washington General Grant. "Of course we responded; and so, feeling encouraged, he turned about with bis arm over the back of the seat and proceeded to Htll alt about bis son. "1 remember it all as plain as yes- erday, though I have never written it down till now. " Yes, he's my son, and he's made quite a name for himself.'

He's just a soldier; he's good at that. " No, he ain'l the man for Presi dent. He wouldn't make a good one.' "And so on, to this effect and sub stantially in mese v onu. i remem ber too many of the words and phrases to be mistaken. It was a striking iucident, and I have often thought of it since.

I am of the opinion that many, if not all those masculines who tyle themwlves bachelors, have the idea that we feminines are merely "bid ing our time" until they show us some attention, and that if they do extend some unusual courtesy to us we are ready to expect more. Nut only do they think this, but al-o that we would "jump" at the first oppor tunity of appropriating them to our selves. The very expressive but slangy term "bump" is a noticeable characteristic among the present day masculines. Then, too, there are those who are of the impression that if they call for an evening staying beyond a con siderate time expecting entertain ment and refreshments, the hostess should expect no further demonstra tion of their regards. They fail to realize that an evening at a play t r a box of confections, or just a single flower once in a while would be in strumental in producing a more ap preciative attitude in the lady of their affections. Such lack of considera tion often causes a woman to ponder the question as to whether after mar riage it would be expected that she extend all the courtesies and receive none. The indifference, even neglect. shown by the masculines to their mothers or sisters is another of the many reasons why successful business girls are not more ready to give up superior positions for inferior men. To a thinking girl the altitude in which a man regards her sex means a great deal. She may expect con sideration and thoughtful courtesy, and not be disappointed, from the man who has his mother's comfort in mind. But how in the minority that man is!" CATAKRH SUFFERERS.
