There is a traij;-ic list of diseases which woman alone may suffer from. Men have their physical distresses, but a man is seldom called upon to endure anything so painful, so ling-ering and tenacious as these diseases to which woman is peculiarly subjected, and which are especially terrible, for the reason that most of them effect the mind as well as the body. They induce irritability, they destroy ambition, and they injure the memory. Ninety-nine out of a hundred women are afflicted with some of these complaints in a greater or less degree, and so used have they be- come to pain that they can hardly fancy mortal existence without it. Many of them are women of natural brilliancy, and their possibilities for usefulness would be very great if they were not handicapped by these tormenting troubles. Women have a way of taking their complaints too much as a matter of course. They say, "Every woman has some trouble, I suppose I ought not to complain." And they thus permit a disease to continue until it absorbs the muscular strength, impoverishes the blood, destroys the beauty, sucks up the mental activity, and leaves the victim a pessimistic, faded inadequate, with a hold upon the pity of those about her, but none upon their admiration. ^/^he expense of calling for the treatment of a physician hinders many women from attending to themselves. They do not wish to be an ex- pense to their husbands or fathers, and conceal the suffering until they are almost beyond help. Many young women hesitate to go to a physician because of false modesty. Many have a foolish idea that they will get better after a little while. Tliis is a mistake. The relaxed muscles, the diseased nervous system, and the impoverished blood, are not likely to get back to their normal condition without aid. VIAVI is the name of a remedy which cures the diseases to which woman is subject. This statement may well be doubted in light of al- most complete failure with ordinary methods. Still, we maj' be right; women who have doctored for many years without success say we are. Others never were well until they used VIAVI. Nearly 100,000 women owe their recovery to VIAVI. Send two-cent stamp to the ofHce of the VIAVI Company. No. 815 The Cuyahoga, Cleveland, Ohio, for 40 page Health Book to Mothers and Daughters. A direct talk however, is more satisfying. Call during the office hours, (2 to 5 p. m.,) and learn what you may expect from this re- form method of treatment. Every woman bears a great responsibility. She must preserve her own health that she may give a heritage of health to her children. Therefore let her take her ailments in time. If she does not do so, bar- reness, insanity, or a life of terrible physical torment may be her portion. Remember disease is never the will of (rod. It does not happen. It is caused. Avoid the cause ; cure it if you can not. ( COl'VKIGHTKD.) PRFFACE. The price, "forty to eig"hty cents per pound," for P^rench Cream Cand}-, makes it a luxury seldom indulged in by people in ordinary circumstances, and the making- of them at home is so orten attended with failure, that when success does come, the cost, not counting worry and labor, is fully as much as when purchased at the confectioners ; and in almost every case the unsightliness of the candy is a source of disappointment. B3' our process no one need fear a failure in making Fruit Cream Candy or PVosting. The use of Cream gives to them a smooth- ness and richness atteiined by no other goods, while for purity and deliciousness of flavor the delicate Fruit Creams surpass all cooked Frostings or Candies. They are perfectly pure, a fact not to be overlooked, and can be made as beautiful, both in shape and color, as in any other manner. The cost of Fruit Creams "eight to fifteen cents per pound," is so low as to place them within the reach of all. j^he process of making is so simple none need go wrong, and the work is rather a pleasure than labor. UNCOOKED CANDIES. INSTRUCTIONS. Read the followinir instructions carefully unci you will not have the least trouble in making- beautiful c mdy from any of the recipes. The plain French Cream, or any of the Kruit Cream recipes, will make about one pound of candy. Cold boiled milk, with one teaspoon ful i^lycerine to cup of milk, will answer in place of cream. VARIETIES. An endless variety of candy can be made by moulding- with the ting-ers into different shapes, or pressed with the hand, or rolled with a rolling-pin into sheets and cut into square sticks, etc., or bv rolling- small balls; lay them on plates and press into buttons or small cakes. COLORS. It is not necessary to color any of the Fruit Creams, as the natural color is as fine as can be obtained artificially. Orang-e gives a handsome orang-e or yellow, peach a beautiful cream tint; red currant gives nice shade of pink, etc., etc. Colors can be obtained at any drug- store. Liquid Cochineal will give any shade from most delicate pink to deep red. Tincture Tumeric, a beautiful yellow. Burnt sug-ar or Caramel, any shade of brown. These, with the different shades of color from the fruits will g-ive a combination of colors to suit the most fastidious. Confectioners sug-ar must be used in making- all the Fruit Cream Candy and Icing-. It is purer than ordinary pulverized sug-ar, and can be obtained at an}- leading- g-rocery store. FRUIT CREAMS.

H. WOOD, Manager. HEALTH ESSENTIAL TO HAPPINESS. ^IIERE is no degree of beauty, intelligence or amiability which can compensate for a diseased body in woman. Indeed, there is no beauty, intelligence or amiability which bad health will not undermine. Neither wealth, position nor opi)ortunity can com- pensate for the absence of health; and the conscientious woman has other reasons than selfish ones, for feeling bad health to be the greatest of misfortunes. She knows that she cannot be ill without casting a shadow over the home that she would, if she could, keep always bright. If she has children, she will not only find herself incapacitated for giving them the mental and moral training they need, but she may not even be able to hold their admiration; and the chances are ten to one that she has given them a hideous heritage of disease. She may well be haunt- ed with the fear that the day will come when they will think of her with contempt, for being willing to bring into the world children who can not escape from the destiny of suffering which her enfeebled constitu- tion bequeathed them. She may well apprehend that the time will come when her husband will weary of coming home to the dim room where the invalid wife is always ailing, and go elsewhere, that he may find the high spirits, the physical vigor, and the entertaining vivacity which he is never able to get in his own home. In short, however guiltless a woman may be, she cannot but feel that she, a chronic invalid, is »iaily damaging the lives of those she loves best, and that each day which prolongs her painful and wasted life, is a misfortune rather than a blessing. Yet, the time never really comes when a woman with anything to live for, is ready to relinquish life, no matter how acute her physical sufferings or how terrible her mental torment. VIAVI is the name of a remedy which cures the diseases to which woman is subject. This statement may well be doubted in light of almost complete failure with ordinary methods. Still, we may be right. Women who have doctored for many years without success, say we are. Others never were well until they used VIAVI. Nearly 100,000 wo- men owe their recovery to VIAVI. Send 2 cent stamp to the office of the VIAVI CO., No. 309 "The Nasby," Toledo, Ohio, for 40-page Health Book to Mothers and Daughters. A direct talk, however, is more satisfying. Call during the ofifice hours (i to 6 p. m.) and learn what you may expect from this re- form method of treatment. Every woman bears a great responsibility. She must preserve her own health that she may give a heritage of health to her children. Therefore, let her take her ailments in time. If she does not do so, barrenness, insanity, or a life of terrible physical torment may be her portion. Remember, disease is never the will of God. It does not happen. It is caused. Avoid the cause if you can; cure it if you can not. (copyrighted.) THE SHORT AND POPULAR LINE : TIPTOP B IE T "w IE] E isr CLEVELAND, CANTON, ZANESVILLE';°SOUTH i:]v::poie.TJL:NrT. C. C. & S.
