4A mother and fun together if they both are well and stron hearty Health makes them good-
itured and happy; but all the delights of nuotherhood are lost if the mother is weak yang
uc .uers of young children are subject to . heavy draft upon their physical resources, and their health ought to >¢ specially forti- fied, both before and after the baby is born
The most remarkable strength-sustainer for women is Dr. Pierce's Fevurtte Prescri It imparts health and endurance £
; ana
tion. rectly to the orvans, appendages and nerve- centers concerned in maternity. It makes motherhood perfectly safe and nearly pain- scss,
It protects the mother from relapse: makes her capable and cheerful; insures abundant nourishment for the baby; and
completely reinforces the vitality of both mother and child
It is the only scientific mredicine devised by an educated experienc d physician for the express purpose of strengthening and healing woman's special organism.
The reasons why it is the most perfeet and successful remedy of its kind in the world are more fully explained in one chap- ter of Dr. Pierce's great thousand-page illus- trated book, ‘‘The People’s Common Sense Medical Adviser,’’ which will be sent free, paper-bound for 31 one-cent stamps to pay the cost of cusioms and mutling only. Or handsomely cloth-bound for so stamps.
Mrs. F. B. Cannings, of No. 4320.-Humphrey St., St. Louis, Mo., writes: “I am now a happy mother of a fine, healthy baby girl. I feel that your ‘Favorite Prescription’ and little ‘ Pellets’ have done me more good than anything I have ever taken, Three months previous to my con- finement 1 began using your medicine. I took three bottles of the ‘ Prescription.’ Conse- quences were I was only in labor forty-five min- utes. With my first baby I suffered 18 hours then had to lose him. e only lived 12 hours. For two years I suffered untold agonv, and had two miscarriages The ‘Favorite Prescription’ saved both my child aud myself.” re

| CHAPTER XU.
“Right you are’ “Stich ‘“onssed bad roads I never seen. My orders was to fetch the feller without botherin the ladies, but how in tue devil are we to manage it?’’
“Old Blackie said he was in the tur- nip patch this morning.”’
**It’s likely we'll find him there now. Hoein turnips is such fascinatin work achap never iets up on it once he gets at it.’’
The feebleness of the suggestion and the infinite scorn of its rejection pro- duced a ripple of subdued laughter. With a display of finesse scarcely to be expected of him Seth advanced boldly under cover of this amicable diversion.
Heroically resolved that if it rested with him the women inside should not be ‘‘pestered,’’ he descended the short flight of stairs in his unshod noiseless- ness, looming darkly before the gaze of the squad with unheralded abruptness.
**Maybe I'm the feller you are look- in for, gents,’’ he said in his slow, gentle drawl.
**Maybe you are if your name hap- pens to be Seth D. Martin.”’
**That’s my name.’’
‘*Then maybe you wouldn’t mind rid- in out to Sessumsport with us tonight.’’
**Tonight?’’
**Just so.’’
*‘Are you actin under orders to fetch me?’’
**That’s just ’bout the size of it.’’
‘*What can anybody want of me? I ain’t never even heard a bullet whistle, I’m sorry to say. I’m too pitifully in- significaut to be wuth arrestin.’’
‘“‘Our major thinks different, it seems. ”’
**Major whe?’’
‘*Major of the Fifth. He’s in com- mand out yonder at the river, and it’s him as sent for you. Come, now, where’s your nag? Never mind about your dress coat, we'll excuse that.’’
And the squad laughed delightedly
at the wit of their leader. Seth answer- -
ed them with slow gentleness:
“I reckon you'll have to excuse more’n a dress coat, gents. I believe I'd ruther go just as I am than to hus- tle "bout inside and wake the ladies up. I suppose now,’’ he added, stooping to persuasion, ‘‘if I gave you the word of a gentleman that if I was wanted out to Sessumsport I would come of my own accord early in the morning it wouldn’t
Dr. A. W. CHASE IN CONSULTATION,
TEST THE KIDNEYS
They Are the Great Feeders oi Our Bodies—the Purity of the Blood is Dependent on Their Cleaus- ing Pewers.
Pills are the Only Combined Kidney and Liver Pill—What They Have Ac- complished is But a Guarantee of
What They Will Bo.
There’s a time to all, old and young, man or woman, when poor health brings trouble, anxiety, and burdens hard to stand up under, and one’s ef- forts to rid himself or herself seem cnly to be baffled at every turn, and we are prone te grow discouraged.
That is not the time to give up— but the time for action, the time to seek out the seat of the trouble, and sct as your best judgment and the experience of others will help you, guarding against mistakes in the treat- ment adopted for your particular ail-
ment. CARTER,
READ WHAT AMOS
MELBOURNE, ONT., SAYS:
Spasms Lasted for Hours at a Time —Left Great Aching and Soreness— Dr. Chase’s Kidney-Liver Pills Proved His Deliverer.
J was for over six months troubled vith very sharp pains in the region of my kidneys, the spasms lasted for half an hour at a time, and left me with great aching, soreness and pain. I tried many remedies, but they did me no good. I commenced taking Dr. Chase’s Kidney-Liver Pills accord- ing to directions. I had not much faith that they would cure me, but after taking one box I noticed a change for the better. It may seem incredible, but after taking the second box the pains all left me entirely, and I have not had them _ since.—Am%s Carter, Melbourne.
Price 25 cents per box, all dealers.

induce you to let me stay here till day breaks?’’
“Not bya jugful. Our majoris a martinet. When he gives an order, we obey it, we don’t question it. Our or- ders are to fetch one Seth D. Martin to his headquarters, out in the courthouse at Sessumsport, and if you are inclined to go peaceably it will be better for you and the women folks—-for everybody concerned. If your beast is turned out, you'll have to double up with one of the boys.’’
“I would like to leave a note, then, for my mother.’’
**Perhaps it would be best to go quiet- ly,’’ he argued mentally. Indeed there Was no room for choice in the matter.
“I won't keep you waitin long. I'll just step into the library and scratch oif @ line.’’
**You won’t try to skip?’’
**Skip?’’
**Vamoose the ranch?’’
**You mean dodge you?”’
**That’s about the size of it.”
‘Seth Martin ain’t got much to be proud of, gentlemen,’’ said Seth, lifting his stooping form with an angry ges- ture, ‘‘but he ain’t never yet caught himself tryin to dodge anything or any man.
‘*Good for Seth Martin. All the same, Corporal Greenleaf, step inside with Freshy while he writes that note to his ma.’’
There was something in the light, scoffing voice that stung Seth into si- lence. He turned away from the men and walked quickly toward the library, closely followed by Corporal Greenleaf.
Gu the library tabie he Kuew would find one of the soft, tallowy ca: dles his mother and the madam were : inordinately proud of, stuck in one © the tall silver candlesticks that had be longed to generations of Strongs. It a! wavs stood ready for night emergencies
Seth lighted it, and with asense ©. desecration resting heavily upon hin seated himself at the governor’s writin table co write a comforting note to hi- mother.
Corporal Greenleaf took possession 0° the big leather armchair that was rar ly ever occupied, now that the governo: was gone, and, laying his heavy cap across his knees, gave himself up to con- tem plation of the splendid appointments of the room.
Seth’s pen scratching rapidly acros: the sheet of paper was the only audible sound.
‘““It ain’t a’ easy letter to write,’’ ho said, lifting his head to smile apologet- ically at the corporal. ‘‘You see, |] don’t want to scare them any more than ean be helped. I’ve told her I’ve been ‘rested, but I can’t just exactly tell hex what the major of the Fifth wants of me. Do you happen to know now?’
The simple earnestness of this rustic won upon his more sophistocated guard strangely. Corporal Greenleaf uncross- ed and recrossed his military legs with deliberation, toyed meditatively with the rowel of bis huge spurs and answer- ed confusedly: ‘‘Blessed if I do. I reck- on, however, it’s safe to tell her that you’re in no danger of being roasted alive or passed through the sausage grinder; not fat ’nough on your bones for that.”’
‘‘Thank you,’’ said Seth, courteously smiling a faint acceptance of the corpo-
‘ral’s broad personalities before resum- ing the laborious undertaking of writ- ing his mother the first letter he had ever indited:
DzaR OLD Mammy—Don’t you goand get scared now when I don’t turn up about break- fast time. The Yankees out at Sessumsport want me for something o’ ruther, and I’m un- der a’rest. I would have woke you up to tell you all this by word er mouth, but I thought you needed all the sleep you could git after vestyday’s scare, I don’t see as anybody’s got much ‘ag’inst me. I wisht they had more, but I reckon they’ll turn me loose when they find out what small game they’ve bagged. The fel- ler that’s watchin m» while I’m writin this don’t seem to think thar’s anything very tur- rifying ahead of me, 30 you mustn’t he cun- gerin up anything dreadful. If I ain’t back home by 12 0’clock, please tell Dolbear to be sho’ and hoe out the rest of them turnips. I had laid off to do it myself fust thing this mornin, but these gents is 50 pressin in their invitation I’m ’bleeged to go with ’em.
P. S.—The above isa joke. With love to sis. Your attached son, 8. D. MARTIN.
Pallid, breathless, terrified, with this note fluttering in her trembling hand, Mrs. Martin burst into the room occu- pied jointly by Liza and Mamie Colyer, who were both startled into intense, wide awakeness by her wailing cry.
‘‘Liza, oh, Liza, wake up, honey, and give me some comfort. My heart’s like to break.’’
Liza, barefoot, rosy from slumber, bright eyed and disheveled, was by her side in a second.
‘‘What is it, mimmie? The smoke- house?”’
‘Smokehouse! Oh, my Lord, no! It's your brother, your brother Seth. The onlies’ one I had left.’’
‘‘Seth!’’
‘‘He’s done took, honey. They’ve ‘rested him. The Yankees is got him out at Sessumsport this ve’y.. minute,

and how d} I kriow what they're doin to him? And, oh, my Lawd,I just bet anything it was them red stripes down the side of his poor legs. stripes made him look like a major gen- eral, and I reckon them fools thought he was. Poorboy! And him never hav- ing a chance to shoot anything but beef cattle.’’
She wiped her fast flowing tears on
| the cuff of her gown sleeve and sighed
resignedly -
“You needn’t say a word, Liza. It was them red stripes. But when women has to cut their men folk’s breeches out’n ola shawls it ain’t always easy to tell where the stripes is goin to hit. Oh, my Lawd! Now, girls, you know it ain’t,’’ and they mingled their tears to- gether while casting about for words of comfort.
At the same moment out at Sessums- port Seth was being ushered into the presence of the man who had ordered his arrest.
The whole business was bewildering in the extreme; the startling sum- mons, breaking up the solemn silence of his sentinel watch; the long, trying ride, with nothing more flexible to steady himself by than the leather strap about Corporal Greenleaf’s ample waist line; the unfamiliar aspect of Sessumsport, seen by the gray light of dawn, bespriziied with the white tents of an encamped brigade; the old court- house, transformed into military head- quarters, with the huge national flag fluttering limply in the rain dampened air; the room in Widow Morgan’s cot- tage into which he was ushered by bis guard, with much show of respect for its solitary occupant. That occupant, rigidly erect in front of a table strewn with maps and papers, turned toward the door and rose as Corporal Greenleaf saluted and informed him that his or- ders had been carried out to the letter.

HUMAN SACRIFICES
On the Altar of Diabetes, Saved by Dodd's Kidney Pills, Only.
lardly a family in the country is free from WDiabetes. Great thirst, failing sight, numbness in the thighs, bleeding gums, swollen ankles, ema- ciation, nervousness, pale or turbid urine, loss of sexual power, decaying teeth, pains in the loins or small of the back, are all positive signs that Diabetes is in the system.
Do you know how it ends? IN DeatuH. A premature, horrible, agon- ized, pitifui death. The victim has no peace, no ease in life. His days are filled with tortures. His nights are waking dreams of agony. He longs to die, yet fears the terrors of his end. He jies, a bloated, fetid, repulsive mass of corruption. That is the only end of unchecked Diabetes. _Dodd’s Kidney Pills will cure it. They drive it out of the system thoroughly, create new, clean blood, rebuild the diseased kidneys, and restore robust health
