"For four years I had been a sufferer from female troubles, and at times was unable to do even the work for three in the family. I had such pains that I suffered almost death dozens of times, but after taking five bottles of your medicines I.can truthfully say that my health was greatly im, proved. I have a good appetite and am gaining in flesh right along. This spring is the first time in five years that I have done my house cleaning all by myself and without the least fatigue whatever.

TROUBLE COMING.

Good Bye to United States, Says Astrologer Stowe. Disease, disaster, death -even the stars foretell a dark and tragic destiny for the next two years. Astrologers are concerned, study their charts as never before, and give forth dire predictions. Prof. Lyman J.

Stowe, of 133 Cathine st. Detroit, who forecast the assassination of McKinley, told The News this morning that, since the great eruption of Mount Pelee, he finds mush to make him shudder. Mercury, he says, is -approaching the dragon's tail, or south node of the moon, and brings fearful disaster. He says: We have" before us two years of blood, disaster and crime. Mars will rule for two years.

"On March 21, Mars, with the sun, entered the sign Aries, the first evidence of which is the dreadful volcano eruption at Martinique. Before the end of the year, possibly between Dec. 1 and March 16 next, we will be visited by an earthquake that will shake all the crockery in the country. "New York city will be swept by a great tidal wave. "We shall have another financial panic soon.

"Labor troubles will increase. The coming summer will be intensely hot, and an unusual number will die of sunstroke, disease and disaster. Next year the cholera will come to Detroit. "In October President Roosevelt may lose his life at the hands of an assassin "Our country is entering a period of great depression, and between now and 1908 we shall become involved in a war with all Europe. The United States shall be cut in six pieces.

It will be a war so; bloody that the late civil war'll look like a picnic beside it." Miles J. Guirl, a well known astronomer, was asked what he thought of the astrological chart system. He said: "I cannot understand how a planit or constellation can effect a continent, instead of the world as a whole. It seems to me similar to the fortune teller's method of counting the spots on the cards or the lay of the deck thus obtaining a key on which to For Sale-An automobile and a stone crusher.

A marked copy of Daily Republican, published at Poplar Bluff, has been mailed to the SUN. It gives Chester A. Aldrich rather the worst of it in his financial troubles there.

Aldrich has been arrested on a charge of burglary and larceny on complaint of Ernest Bacon, who held the chattel mortgage on the Sentinel office, the foreclosure of which has thrown Aldrich out. The arrest is based on Aldrich's attempt to regain possession by entering the office at night, barricading the doors, and with revolvers in hand defying arrest. He finally submitted however, and will have a hearing tomorrow. He was unable to secure bail. The tapes and belts on.

the presses. were cut and the job stock was wrecked. 1 Aldrich claimed to have found the back door open, but the other side claims he either climbed through the front transom or forced the back door. Wanted to rent- A small house. Enuire at this office.

50c and all druggists. A WAY TO GET A HUSBAND "My dear," said Mrs. Colonel Morningdale, "why don't you marry?" "Because no one is so stupid. as to propose 15 me." "Nonsense. It's because you have no mother to engineer the matter for you.

You are fairly pretty, have a good disposition and plenty of common sense, but you are not practical, or, rather, too proud to angle for a man. Now, it's a mistake to suppose the men want a girl to stand off and let them do all the courting." "I thought they turned against women who show that they are fishing for a busband." "They should not know that a girl is fishing." "I don't want a fool." "Fool! The brightest men are the easiest caught, for their knowledge is a different kind. There's Captain Griffith of the engineers, graduated head of his class at West Point, fine character, some fortune, every: thing to make him desirable. Come and visit at the fort, do exactly as I order you, and I'll engage. that both of you will be the happier for the result." Gertrude Soyne laughed outright.

"Will you come?" "Yes." "And obey me?" "Yes." "Very well; pack your things. We go tomorrow." When the two women reached the fort. Mrs. Morningdale invited Captain Griffith to dinner. He talked most of the time about a widow who had appeared as the guest of Mrs.

Major Fosdick and bad taken the garrison by storm. After dinner Mrs. Morningdale was (intentionally) called away to visit a sick neighbor and left the captain and Gertrude together. shall I do?" whispered Gertrude to her instructor before her departure. "Nothing.

1 will give you your orders at the proper time." Captain Griffith called several times a week. It was said that he divided his evenings. between the widow and Colonel Morningdale's quarters, giving the Morningdales all he had left from the widow! Gertrude chaffed her hostess good naturedly and asked when she was to get her instructions. "We don't ask for instructions in the army," said Mrs. Morningdale.

"'We wait till we get them. Then we obey them implicitly." "Griffith is going to leave us," said Colonel Morningdale tow his wife one day when he returned from his office. "Ordered away?" "Yes; Pacific coast. Orders came from Washington this morning." "I'm!" When Mrs. Morningdale said "H'm!" in that tone of voice, the colonel knew that it meant something.

"FIe told me that he would see us to say goodby between 8 and 9 this evening." "He means to say goodby to the widow between 9 and midnight?" After dinner Mrs. Morningdale took Gertrude aside and said to her: "Your orders are ready for you." "Very well; I am ready for my orders," replied Gertrude, smiling. "Captain Grithth will call this evening at 8 o'clock to say goodby, for he is going away. I shall be in the room till a quarter to 9, when I will excuse myself. When he takes leave of you, you will begin to cry." "Cry!" laughed Gertrude.

"How can cry at will?" "If you can't cry, put your handkerchief to your face and sob." The conversation which began in this. pleasant tone ended seriously. Gertrude mutinied, and Mrs. Morningdale was obliged to use drastic measures. She reminded her charge of their contract and told her plainly that unless she obeyed orders their friendship would be ended.

Then Gertrude fell in with the spirit of the joke, as she regarded it, and assented. At 8:45 that evening Captain Griffith and Gertrude were left 15 alone. When the clock on the barracks tower 9, the captain arose to go. Gertrude thought of the part she was to play and found it impossible to repress a smile, which she hid behind her handkerchief. When the captain put out his hand for the farewell, she, like a good soldier, remembered her orders and obeyed them.

She raised the handkerchief to her eyes. Griffith was thunderstruck. "Miss Soyne!" The orders were to sob," and Gertrude sobbed. "Gertrude!" Another sob. "My dear girl, can it sob.

Griffith advanced, put one hand to Gertrude's waist, the other to the handkerchief; but she held it firmly over her eyes, though it was sufficiently' displaced from her mouth show that she was laughing. "Great heavens "Miss Soyne Gertrude you distress me beyond measure!" The door opened, and Mrs. Morningdale stood on the threshold. "Pardon me," she said. Griffith blushed to the roots of his bair.

F. "Mrs. Morningdale," he said, "do not misconstrue what you see. I love Miss Soyne and will never be happy till she has promised to be my wife." Mrs. Morningdale's campaign was ended; and Gertrude was horrified.

Nevertheless she married Captain GritAth, and there is not today a more devoted couple in the army. "Don't tell me," says the matchmaker, "that a girl doesn't need. a mother to see that she gets a good busband." F. A. MITCHEL.

THE OTHER MAN 1902, by: C. B. William Dawson, a clerk in an insur. ance office, was sent to Chicago on business. When be bad transacted it, be sat on a bench in Lincoln park.

Suddenly agnumbness crept over him. fought against it, but was soon help less, and it was half an hour before it passed off. Then he stood up and walked about to find himself "the other man." In other words, his identity was gone. He could not remember his name, his town or anything connected with his past. He could not tell what city he was in.

It has been asserted by medical: men that had he made his condition known and had prompt treatmeut he would have been himself again after a couple of days, but he became terribly frightened over the situation and started off. on a run. By and by he found himself in the country. He did not stop at any house or question any wayfarer, but toward night he fell in with quartet of tramps. The fellows must have observed his mental condition, for they led him into' a field and assaulted and robbed him.

They even stripped him of. his clothes and threw him the rags of one to cover his nakedness; When they left him, he walked ou to the first house and started to tell his strange story. It was not to be expected that any one would credit it. In fact, it was calculated to arouse suspicion. He was detained at the house, and a constable was sent for, and later on he found, himself in jail as a vagabond and one who was up to some game.

When arraigned before a justice of the peace, be told his story and was given a sentence of three months in the county jail. It was three weeks after Dawson's disappearance that his employers began 10 search for him. He was easily traced- to Chicago, and his name was on a hotel register. and his trunk was there, but police could find no further trace. After several weeks it was returned as a case of murder and robbery or an accidental death by falling off a wharf.

The case was referred to in so many newspapers and an advertisem*nt was kept running so long that if Dawson was alive it seemed that be must have been found. Soon after he found himself in jail he sought to interest the jailer in his case. The man had never heard of such a thing, and be simply laughed at the idea. Finally he was discharged. Dawson on took to the road as a tramp because he had 1 no other recourse.

He worked and begged and traveled, and six months went by. By that time he was in Iowa, and his mind was almost made up that he bad been a tramp for years and years. He could recall how the strange feeling came over him as he sat in a public park, and yet be was half. convinced that it was all a dream. One day, as he was plodding along the highway, he was overtaken by 2 country doctor driving a gig.

The doctor was a good hearted man named Andrews and always bad a dime for a bardup man. It so happened that he wanted a man to assist him in tearing down an old barn, and ho offered the work to Dawson." It was accepted, and "the other man" bad been hard at work for three days when something happened. The doctor overheard him quoting Shakespeare to himself and at once became interested. It did not take him long to find out that he had an educated tramp in his employ, and, encouraged by his kind words, Dawson told him his strange story. The doctor bad read it in the papers; and he knew that such things had been and could be.

One of the remarkable features in Dawson's. case was that bis mind had only been dulled to certaip things. His memory was gone as to his identity and how he bad lived his years, but he could read, write, cast up figures and was otherwise in touch new as astonish there, Again, be bad with the world. was nothing suffered no sickness and had no mental worry, and nothing had come as a shock. He was never in better health or spirits than when the feeling began to creep over him.

Andrews was, of course, interested in the case from a medical point of view. He bunted up back numbers of the newspapers and proved the man's identity. Dawson's bome, education and visit to Chicago were all given, and he received the information with much surprise. He could not remember to bave ever heard of the name of the town where he had lived for years, of the be bad" worked for or of any journey to Chicago. In this situation of affairs he agreed that it would be best to stay with Dr.

Andrews for awhile and hope that his memory would return. Six weeks had passed when he was sent to the village in the gig to make some purchases. Upon his return the doctor met him at the gate, and Dawson accosted him with: "My dear sir, I find myself in an embarrassing position. Will you kindly if the owner of this rig lives bereabout?" "Yes; it is mine," answered the doctor, seeing at a that memory had returned to his patient. "And how did I come by it?" "I loaned it to you." "But I-I don't understand.

When did I leave: Chicago? How do I bappen to hare these clothes on? Why did I borrow your horse and gig?" Memory had returned to the man as he drove home from the village. There was no shock, no such feeling as bad come to' him when he lost it. He sim ply found himself wondering why be was driving a doctor's rig on the highway instead of transacting business in Chicago. The restoration was com plete, and "the otber man" returned to his own identity and took up his lift again as William Dawson. M.

QUAD. A THE DOCTOR'S GUESS An Episode in a Turkish Harem. A woman of the' harem is taken sick. Turkish etiquette makes no allowance for sickness. The woman is for her husband's eyes alone.

No other man may look upon her. When the doctor comes the sick woman thrusts her hand through a curtain, on the other side of which sits the physician. From the hand alone he must 1 make his diagnosis. As a consequence when a Turkish woman is sick she does not often get well. There is a modesty of nature among American women which, as much the modesty of etiquette among Turkish women, often prevents an attending physician from making a proper diagnosis of disease.

Women who are suffering from diseases peculiar to their sex shrink from the indelicate questioning, the of- DUE DE ONLINE fensive examination 'and the obxoxious local treatment which they know so many local physicians deem necessary and insist upon. As a consequence the attending doctor obtains only a superficial knowledge of the ailments he attempts to cure, and often treats for the wrong disease. The result is that women suffer for long years in silence and allow disease, they to are gain a shattered firm hold in upon health them, and worn and weak in body. WHAT OTHER WOMEN HAVE DONE. Thousands of women who shrank with natural modesty from the ordeal proposed by local physicians have found a cure by consulting Dr.

R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, Y. Dr. Pierce invites every sick and ailing woman to consult him by letter, free.

All correspondence is strictly confidential, and the written confidences of women are guarded by the same strict professional privacy observed by Dr. Pierce and his staff in personal consultations with women at the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo, N. Y. A letter addressed to Dr. Pierce, Buffalo, N.

will receive careful attention and prompt reply. I would like to express my gratitude to you for the benefits I. have received from your wonderful medicine, 'Favorite writes C. N. Anderson, of Rockbridge Baths, Rockbridge Va.

"It is a Godsend to weak and sickly women, restoring good health without subjecting their weak nerves to the shock of an examination: I was all run-down in health front but a short while without resting. Was November until March -could not work so nervous at times that I could not even write had a a very poor appetite, and what I ate did not seem to do me muck good. I decided to write to Dr. Pierce state my case, and am thankful I'did, for in due time I received a able reply as to what kind of medicine to take. I sent and got it and commenced taking the Favorite Prescription 'and Took six bottles of Favorite one of 'Golden Medical Discovery' and one vial of now work as well as I could before I was taken sick, I think Dr.

Pierce's medicine the best in 'the world for sick and nervous women." ANOTHER WAY TO BE CURED. While a great many sick women write to Dr. Pierce and find a cure by that means, there are many other women who use Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription and write only to say they are cured by the use of this great medicine for woman's ills. Favorite Prescription" is particu larly, medicine and peculiarly.

of for the cure womanly It makes women strong and healthy, because it cures the diseases which undermine the strength. The tiny worm destroys the' beauty and fragrance of the rose. Kill the worm and the rose blossoms in all its wonted beauty and fragrance. Womanly diseases mar beauty of face and sweetness of disposition. Favorite Prescription" cures these diseases, and women frequently write after their cure by this medicine: "I am once more robust and rosy cheeked." "I am no more cross and irritable as I was before." If there is irregularity and montly suffering Dr.

Pierce's Favorite Prescription will cure it. It dries the weakening, anhealthy drains which undermine the strength. It heals inflammation and ulceration, and cures female "I enjoy good health, thanks to Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription and Golden Medical writes Mrs. J.

An old friend of mine said to me, Why what 'is the matter with you? You are getting young I told her I had taken six bottles of Dr. Pierce's medicine, and that if she would do likewise she would feel ten years younger, too."
