Genet rorsraaenenaton — Se “a = J ay ee md cs PI cern a gore rr ~ Training Girls. Did girls get from childhord — the the same business training as boys, and were it clearly understood in all families that it is not a credit but a discredit for women to be idle, to hang helpless oo the men instead of doing their own work, and, if necessary, earning their own living, I believe society would be not the worse but the better for the change. Men would find out that the more they elevate women the greater use they get outof them. If instead of a man working himaself to death for his unmarried daughters, and then leaving them }ignominiously dependent upon male relations, he educated them to inde- pendenee, made them able both to main- tain and to’ protect themselves, 1t would save him and them a world of unhappiness. They would cease to be either the rivals—a very hopeless rival- ry—or the playthings firatand then the slaves of men, and become, as was intended, their co-mates, equal and yet different, each sex supplying, the other’s deficienccies, and therefore fitted to work together, not apart, for the good of the world.—-The Author of “John Halifax, Gentlemen,’’ inthe Forum. —~->o——_——— A Duke's Acres The Duke of Sutherland has 1,288,- 666, acres in five counties; the Duchess, 149,879 acres in one county ; Marqis of Breadal bane, 438,358 in two counties; Duke of Bucceleub, 459,540 acres in fourteen counties; Lady Matheson (widow of Sir J), 406.070 acres in one country ; Earl of Seafield, 305,891 acres in three counties; Duke of Richmond, 286,409 acres in five counties; Sr A Mathieson, 220,633 acres in two coun ‘ies; the Duke of Atbole bas 194,640 acres in one county; the Duke of Argyle, 175,114 acres in two countiss the Duke Hamilton, 157, 305 acres in five coun- ties.Lord Lovat, 161,571 acres in one country; Sir Kenneth MacKenzie, 164,680 acres in one country ; Duke of Portland 165,653 acres in eight counties; Norman McLean, 143,007 acres in two counties; Lord Dalhousie, 138,021. acres in two counties.

Y., has afforded a vast experience in nicely adapt- ing and thoroughly testine remedies for the cure of woman’s peculiar maladies, Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is the outgrowth, or result, of this great and valuable experience. ‘Thousands of testimo- nials, received from patients and from physi- cians who have tested it in the mere aggra- vated and obstinate cases which had baflied their skill, prove it to be the most wonderful remedy ever devised for the relief and cure of suffering women. It is not recommended asa “cure-all,” but as a most perfect Specific for woman’s peculiar ailments. As a powerful, invigorating tonic, it imparts strength to the whole system, and to the womb and its appendages in particular. For overworked, “ worn-out,” *run-down,” debilitated teachers, milliners, dressmakers, seamstresses, “shop-girls,’’ house- keepers, nursing mothers, end feeble women enerally, Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription s the greatest a, boon, being unequaled as an appetizing cordial and restorative tonic. As a soothing and strengthening nervine, “Favorite Prescription” is une- ualed and is invaluable in allaying and sub- duing nervous excitability, irritability, ex- haustion, prostration, hysteria, and other distressing, nervous symptoms com- monly attendant upon functional and organic disease of the womb. It induces refreshing sleep and relieves mental anxiety and de- spondency. Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is a legitimate medicine, carefully compounded by an fa gp ene and skillful physician, and adapted to woman's delicate organization. It is purely vegetable in its composition and rfectly harml:ss in _ its effects in any condition of the sysiem. For morning sickness, or nausea, from whatever cause arising, weak stomach, indigestion, dys- pepsia and kindred symptoms, its use, in small oses, will prove very beneficial. “Favorite Prescription” is a posi- tive cure for the most complicated and ob- stinate cases of leucorrhea, excessive flowing, painful menstruation, unnatural suppressions, prolapsus, or falling of the womb, weak back, “female weakness,” anteversion, retroversion, -down sensations, chronic congestion, inflammation and ulceration of the-womb, in- flammation, pain and tenderness in ovaries, accompanied with “ internal heat." As a regulator and promoter of func. tional action, at that critical period of change from girlhood to womarh . Favorite Pre- scription ’’ is a perfectly safe remedial = t is and can P piste xt only good results, equally ¢ eacious and valuable in its effecta w ken for those disorders and derange- ments incident to that later and most critica] od, known as “* The Change of Life.’ “Favorite Prescription,” when taken in connection with the use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, and small laxative doses of Dr. Pierce's Purga*ive Peilets (Little Liver Pills), cures Liver, Kidney and Bladder diseases. heir combined use blood taints, and abolishes scrofulous humors from the m. ** Favorite Erescription » is the only medicine for women, sold by druggists, under a positive arantee, from the mannu- facturers, that it will give satisfaction in every case, or money will be refunded.
