And the fact that such meetings occur every day Kdnta a moral that every woman In the ud should take to heart. Here waa a woman in the prime of life, pursued by that sentinel which seeks its victim, among her sex alone. From a living picture ahe became, in less than a year, a wreck of human wretchedness.

Overcome by tiie presentiment that precedes a lingering death, ahe asked to be removed to her old home in the West, and spoke what to all seemed to be her last farewell, in the very pa per that chronicled her departure the doomed invalid found letters written by Mr*. Helle Dement, of Iroquois, 11L, Mr* Minnie Smith, of Ixiwell, Ore gon, and others. Some of these letter* . / are printed below. They told how cures (j had been found for cases like her own —shattered health that had almoat sapped life away.

I bad gained nearly thirty pound* in weight and was so changed in face and form that when one of my dearest friend* met me in broad daylight she almost fainted, for SHE BELIEVED ME DEAD.” Khe adds. “I owe my whole life and happiness to Doctor Fierce * Favorite Prescription, which cured me after doc tors, travel, baths, massage, electricity, had failed to even benefit!" Thia woman's case, remarkable as it may seem, is not an exceptional one. • Thousands and thousands of juat such cures have been made in every State by peculiar disorders and diseases.
