Health is a magnet which irresistibly draws the man to the woman in life's mating time. Health does more than tint the skin with beauty ; it puts music into the voice and buoyancy into the step, as well as happiness into the heart. A great many women covet beauty and are constantly seeking aids to beautify them. Let a woman first seek perfect health and all other charms shall.be added to her. There can be no general health for women while there is disease of the delicate womanly organism. The first step to perfect health is to cure womanly diseases by the use of Dr. Tierce's Fa vorite Prescription. It establishes regu larity, dries weakening drains, heals inflammation and ulceration and cures female weakness. "I used four bottles of vour ' Favorite Pre scription ' and one of ' Golden Medical IMscov ery.' writes Mrs. Elmer D. Shearer, of Mount hope, Lancaster Co., Pa., "and can say that I am cured of that dreaded disease, uterine trouble. Am in better health than ever before. Every one who knows me is surprised to see me look 60 well. In June I was so poor in health that at times I could not walk. To-dav I am cured. I tell everybody that Dr. Pierce's mcditiues cured me."

YOU A ARE YOU EXPEGTANT? f J OTHER'S FRIEMD makes childbirth easy by preparing the system for parturition and thus shortening l:.ior. The painful ordeal is robbed of its terrors, and the danger lessened to both tti- iher and child; the time of confinement is shortened, the mother rested, and child fully developed, strong and healthy. Morning sickness, or nausea arising from pregnancy, is prevented by its use. As pregnancy advances, the breasts en large, become swollen and hard. Long before the child is born, they are prepar ing for the secretion of milk. It is import ant that they receive early attention. Mother's Friend softens the skin and facilitates the secretion of Life Fluid. Undeveloped breasts, hard-caked shortly after delivery, are the result of non treatment, and likely to culminate in Mammary Abscess, from which so many suffer excruciating pain and are left with these organs permanently impaired. Softness, pliability and expansion are given to the muscles and sinews, thus bringing comfort and causing an easy issue of the child. Trv it Of druggists $1.00. Our book "Motherhood" free."

(By Percy Tiysshe Shelley.) Shall we roam, my love, To the twilight rove, When the moon is rising bright? Oh, I'll whisper there. In the cold night air, What I dare not in broad daylight! I'll tell thee a part Of the thoughts that start To beinpr when thou art nigh ; And thy beauty more bright Than the stars' soft light, Shall seem as a weft from the sky. Wnen the pale moonbeam On tower and stream Sheds a flood of silver sheen, How I love to gaze, As the cold ray strays, O'erthv face, my heart's throned queen ! Wilt thou roam with me To the restless sea, And linger upon the steep. And list to the How Of th w.m.vhs below. How they toss and roar and leap? Those boiling waves And the storm tha t raves At night o'er their foaming crest Resemble the strife That, from earliest life. 't he passions have waged In my breast. Oh, come, then, and rove To the sea or the grove, When the moon is shining bright, And I'll whisper there, In the cool night air, What I dare not in broad daylight! HAIR-PIN-PICK-UPS. How the world admires a girl who Is not boy struck? Nowadays fathers are blocks of the young ship. Some men seem to think that wo men are nothing but pincushions. A girl who has a round, jolly laugh has something to make the world happy. The hardest woma n to please is the one who doesn't know what she wants. The diet of love is a flower for breakfast, a smile for dinner and a kiss for supper. Isn't that light enough for any taste?

She left for Chicago, but upon her arrival there the young man failed to meet her at the depot as per arrangements. Be ing in quite a quandary she appealed to the police department.and through their aid found her intended swain living in a suburb of the Windy City lie proved to be a married man and was at the head of a family. The officers took charge of him. but upon paying the young lady 100 for her trouble and also furnishing her wtlh return transportation home, he was released. Accounts say the young lady has again resumed the duties of her country home, and is answering no more matrimonial ad vertisements. A Wedding Family Reunion and Birth day Celebration. The home of Esq. J. S. Coleman was the scene of much merriment last Thursday, the 13th.

Next was the magnificent dinner. Seldom have I seen such an array of good things to grace a dining table. Between one and two hundred I should think enjoyed this dinner and wished the Squire the return of many more birthdays and the family many more reunions. Roxboro Courier. The Wyche-Jordan Wedding a Brilliant Social Event. Henderson, Nov. 22. One of the most brilliant marriages that has taken place in Henderson for years was celebrated at the Presbyterian church at 9 o'clock Thursday night, the Rev. J. H. Henderlite officiating, in the presence of a great throng of friends. The contracting parties were Mr. Clarence Adolphus Wyche,of Roanoke Rapids, and Miss Eemme Mclvenzie Jordan, the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Thadeus K. Manning, and one of Henderson's most beautiful and ac complished young women. The church was artistically deco rated with palms and mammoth growing chrysanthemums bearing gorgeous rainbow-tinted blooms. Miss Emma W.

Immedietely after the ceremony a handsome reception was tendered at the home of the bride's parents. This was quite an elaborate social func tion, as over 300 cards of Invitation had been Issued. Bad Taste in the outh When you get up in the morning with a coated tongue and a bad taste in the mouth, you may or may not be seri ously ill, but if there is any disease going, your system is just right to catch it. We know what you think first you are half persuaded to try Vinol, and then you say to yourself: " That's the same story all the medicines tell ; I've heard it before." But Vinol is not like other medicines. If it were, we shouldn't be talking about it in any special way. If you will regulate your bowels with Vinlax and take Vinol to improve your diges tion and assimilation of food, these troubles, with the head ache, "liver complaint," neu ralgia, rheumatic pains, and nerve troubles will disappear as by magic. We pay back the money if it doesn't help you. Mail Orders Supplied, $1 per ' Bottle, Ex press Paid. R. E, Hamilton, Druggist.
