Sometimes the most careful women are the nost careless. Mauy a woman bundles herself up, to keep out sickness—when she is neglecting the very worst sickness thut can come to awoman. She allows a slight disorder io become worse, to slowly sap ber vitality. The littie pain and the other slight indications of trouble seem to her unimportant. She goes on, with increasing suffering until life iteelf becomes adrag. Nervousness, “sinking epells,” digestive disturbances, and fifty other complications may arise from the derangement of the organs distinctly feminine. Over thirty years ago the need for a reliable remedy for so-called ‘‘female complaints” was recognized by Dr. R. V. Pierce, then, as now, chief consulting physician to the World’s Dispensary and Invalid’s Hotel, at Buffslo, N. Y. He preprared Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescrip- tion, the most wonderfully eflective remedy that has ever been used for such maladies,

Tiic BANANA PEEL TACKLE.
Or How a World Famous Football Player Came to Grief.
The football player stood upon the field before the game, and the rooters by the thousands sang in praises of his fame. Hea great and mighty center, none with him could e’en compare. He had muscle, pluck and backbone and about 12 pounds of hair.
In the rush and in the scrimmage, in the tackle, in the kick, he was two blades upon the scissors; he the lone twig on the stick; the only chip upon the table; the only bean within the soup, and the chappies when they saw him gave a wild and weirdsome whoop.
In the game he fought and struggled, and he humped himself with might. There his victims, as he dropped them, vanished from the mortal sight. Full of vigor, strength and ardor feli he on th’ opposing ‘leven, and the men he smashed completely numbered just ex- actly seven.
‘*What ho! Rise up!’’ loud he shout- ad. ‘‘Bring the ambulance this way! Drag these stiffs right off the gridiron! They are spoiling every play. Give me something else to jump on. Line your ‘subs’ up in arow! Only, only let me at ’em! Only, only let me go!’’
The spectators marveled greatly, and they howled with furious mirth, say- ing: ‘‘Is not he a corker? He’s the greatest one on earth,’’ as this mighty mass of muscle laid about him in the mud tackles, ends and backs unnum- bered, in confusion, daze and blood.
That same night he broke his train- ing, likewise several bottles cold. Un- scathed he Anished up the season, had this football warrior bold. Bumper affer bumper quaffed he, started home almost a wreck, stepped upon a banana peel- ing, made a dive and broke his neck.
What's a tale without a moral? What's a joke without a point? In this case you'd work your ‘‘think tank’’ till your brain was out of joint. This the moral, ‘‘Fight the lion, queer the timer, kill the bear, but the serpent crawling *neath you—for its ‘‘pisen’’ have a care. —New York Sunday World.
Censolation.
Miss De Fine—I hope the report that your daughter and her husband do not get along well together is untrue.
Mrs. De Shine—It is too true. The trouble is that he is jealous of her. The fool! He might know there is no cause for jealousy !
Miss De Fine (thinking of the girl’s plainness)—Indeed he might, but love is blind, you know.—-New York Weekly.

And if I want my diet sweet I have some Caine also,
And should my stock ef food that’s fresh by any mishap fail
I suppose I’d have to fall back then on some- thing that is Stael.
But, then, who will prepare my meals? Just let me take a look.
Ha, ba! I have it! All my food I'll make Ross Terry Cooke,
And since I cannot serve myself at table, why, you see,
I’m glad I’ll always have a Butler there to wait on me.
