ComiiilMKlnncrH Ileiil to Bequest for
n. evv Pnvement.
The District Commissioners have noti
fied C. JV. "Ridley that it Is impracticable
and Inujlv iSJiTile to grant Ills request for
the construction of a new pavement on

wharf as will meet the wharf Ieel.
The Commissioners state that to make
such an Improement would result In
making the grade of the street thre"
fourths of an Inch to the foot, which
would be unsafe and a serious detriment
to the usefulness of the street. The
Commissioners Intend, however, to make
a slope of three-fourths of an Inch to the
foot uniformly from the rail for the en
tire length of the street, which will bring
the grade of the pavement practically
bne foot aboc the leel of the wharf at
the driveway entrance, the expectation
being that that portion of the floor of the
wharf Immediately adjoining the new
pax ement will be relald at a different
slope In order to join the new pavement
grade.

Love that Alters.
" Love i j not love that alters when it alteration
finds "
That is one of the sublimest lines in all
literature. It is the final definition of love
by the w orld's greatest reader of the human
mind, Shakespeare., Nearly all women
who truly love, love in this sublime way.
Men seldom do
Woman's most Rlonousendowment is
the power to awaken and hold the pure
and honest lov e of a w orthy man When
she loses it and still loves on, no one in
the wide w orld can ku6v- the heart agony
she endures The woman who suffers
from weakness and derangement of her
special woman! organism soon loses the
power to sway the heart of a man. Her
general health sufiers and she loses her
good looks, her attractiveness, her amia
bility and her power and prestige as a
woman. Dr. R. V. Pierce, of Buffalo. N.Y ,
with the assistance of his staff of able phy
sicians, -has prescribed for many thousands
of w omen He has devised a perfect and
scientific remedy for women's ailments It
is known as Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip
tion It is a positive specific for all weak
nesses, diseases, disorders, displacements,
irregularities, and debilitating drains pe
culiar to women. It purifies, regulates,
strengthens and heals. Medicine dealers
sell it, and no honest dealer will advise
you to accept a substitute that he may
make a little larger profit.
",I was afflicted with kidney trouble and I
