Lust Friday evening there was held in Davis' hall the regular meeting of the Purest City Kepnbllcuu club. A large number were piesent and many new en rollments were made. Voluntary sub scriptions were taken up and a liberal sum netted. It was voted to enter the Stute league of Republican clubs and to perfect arrangements for such en trance Messrs. John M. Brown and (leorge Maxey, jr., were selected. Ban ners and transparencies were proposed for Saturday night's parade and Heorge K. Maxey was unanimously elected marshal, with power to select his aids. A few yeurs ago one dressed In the uniform of the J. A. R., with medals pinned on his breast, and with one leg, one arm, und u part of the nose evi dently shot away, pussed through this pluce. He then staled that he was en route from the Soldiers' Home to visit his brother. He added that when leav ing the "home" he was given suflii lent money to reach only a place where his brother then resided, but since he had learned that his brother had moved to some point distant. Therefore, he was stranded, and the kind citizens of Pur est City raised a suitable collection for the veteran. Saturday the same gentle man passed through town and again told the same sorrowful tale. Whether or nut his bait was again successful we have not learned.

Ailments that Kequli Neither Surgical Opermtluu Hot CsnualtaMoBi With Mala Phyftlcians I'Mlwea Cruelty. There are two classes of women, those who always want the doctor and those who help themselves. Any intelligent woman knows that in nine cases out of ten, ther ail. ments of wo men require nei ther surgical JLf?V) examinationsnor consultations with a male pliysi. iau Thousands of women who have suffered tor tures from "female weak- ness," are to-day well and strong, ull owing Lydia, E. Piukhttiu's Vege table Compound. Among the writer's small circle of acquaintances, she knows of no less than twenty-fivs cases cured within a few weeks, and this after the doctors had stated that the only chance left was a surgical operation. Following we give a statement front a ludy who went through three such operations. What was the good f YV call it cruelty. " For nearly eight years I suffered with headaches, spinal weakness, pain ful menstruations, faintness, dizziness, weakness of the stomach, nervousness and sharp pains durting through my whole system. I was doctoring all the time, and hud three operations. I was completely discouraged, and with little faith I began to take Lydia E. Piukham's Vegetable Compound. I have tukeu five bottles, and now find myself well. I feel it my duty to tell these facts, fur I owe my life to the Vegetable Compound, Bud if 1 had only had faith before, I would have avoided those fearful and useless opera tions; let every woman take waruiuff from me."
