Cowperthwait to the Eagle.) Riverhead, L. January 13 Sheriff Preston addressed the Board of Supervisors yesterday relative to an Increase in the salary of the warden of the Suffolk County jail; also an increase for the turnkey of the same institution. The present salary is for warden and $500 for the turnkey. It is desired to increase these to $750 for the warden and $600 for the turnkey. Board now goes with both salaries.

The board heard Sheriff Preston without comment and from the attitude of the members it is thought likely that no action toward an Increase will bo made. It was held by members of the board, when questioned by an Eagle man, that this county is now paying practically the same salaries as other rural counties, and that a warden has already been appointed to fill Warden Raf-ford's position at the same salary be was getting. The sheriff's office of this county has been on the salaried list Just one year, and it la interesting to note that public officials claim a big saving over the old method of running the office and the Jail on the fee plan. Although complete details are not yet hand an Eagle man was informed yesterday afternoon that the salary plan had saved the county at least $5,000 and possibly more. Charles I.ang and Raymond Vail, two of the deputies who watched A.

Tuthill Reeve's house the night the murderer was captured, sent a bill of $15 each to the board yesterday; the bills were sent back to'the sheriff's office for Sheriff Preston said later: "These boys charged too much for one night's work ae deputies. I offered to settle with them once for $7, but they held out for $10. I was a little surprised when they attempted to go over my head and send a bill direct to the board, particularly on account of the size of the bill." Tho supervisors committee who will attend the good roads convention in Albany on January 20 and 27, will report that the Suffolk County board Is favorable to the adoption of the $50,000,000 bond Issue In the interest of good roads. The committee was instructed to vote in favor of its adoption. Superintendent of Poor Kirkpatrick addressed the board relative to the appointment of a commltte to assist the citizens of Patchogue in making arrangements for the Btate convention of the county superintendents of the poor, which will be held at Patchogue in June.

100 20.01111 (H) tn.OOO 00 THE CROWN OK WOMANHOOD IS MOTHERHOOD. But uneasy lies the head that wears the crown or anticipates this coronation, when there is a lack of womanly strength to bear the burdens of maternal dignity and duty. And how few women come to this critical time with adequate strength. The reason why so many women sink under the strain of motherhood is because they are unprepared. Is preparation then required for motherhood asks the young woman.

And every experienced mother answers "Yes." "I unhesitatingly advise expectant mothers to use Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription," writes Mrs. Stephens. The reason for this advice is that Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is the best preparative for the maternal function.

No matter how healthy and strong a woman may be, she cannot use "Favorite Prescription as a preparative for maternity without gain of health and comfort. But it is the women who are not strong who best appreciate the great benefits received from the use of Favorite Prescription." For one thing its use makes the baby's advent practically painless. It has in many cases reduced days of suffering to a few brief hours. It has changed the period of anxiety and struggle into a time of ease and comfort I take pleasure in informing you of the birth of a boy in perfect health, on May 18th, 1899," writes Mrs. L.

E. Corti, of Waltonvilfe, Box 25. "I cannot find words sufficiently strong to express to you my thanks, for baby's coming was almost without pain, and when my husband arrived with the doctor the child was already born. The neighbors who were with me and my husband and the doctor could not believe their eyes. Having suffered so much before I never believed myself able to bear a living child.

I shall never be without your medicines henceforth, and shall never fail in recommending your Favorite I have used the medicines which you prescribed with the best results." "I have had ample cause to be grateful to you for your wonderful medicine," writes Mrs. Ilattie Tannehill, of 11 23 Zane Street, Louisville, Ky. "Doctor Pierce's Favorite Prescription has saved many a woman's life, and eased and cured thousands of women, who, before taking this medicine, dragged wearily through life. Thanks to your remedy I am to-day strong and well. Have had ten children, seven boys and three girls, and my share of life's burdens.

At age of 39 change of life began, and I felt the hot and cold flashes, extreme lassitude and nervousness peculiar to that period. After using your Favorite Prescription these symptoms disappeared and it carried me through the critical period safely and well. I heartily recommend it to any sick woman it builds up the general health and surely cures troubles peculiar to the sex." Women suffering from chronic forms of disease are invited to consult Doctor Pierce by letter free, and so avoid the indelicate questionings, offensive examinations and obnoxious local treatments considered necessary by local physicians. Dr. Pierce, assisted by his med ical staff of nearly a score of specialists, has in a little more than thirty years treated and cured over half a million women.

A gingham wrapper, petticoat, chemise and shoes were formerly supplied for tho women prisoners, but stockings have never been supplied except aa furnished at the matron's expensn. Tho women, very nerve sentence In the clothing In which they enter.

If they do not possess a change of underclothing, they aro obliged to go to lied while theiri Is being washed, if it is washed. A roller towel is supposed to be supplied for each bath room for the common use of all, but there is not even sufficient number of these; and dirty, diseased, sick and well use the same towel. Many of these women prisoners when discharged find employment In families or in laundries of the different homes for this class. That the whole population of Kings County Is not Infected by them Is a miracle. An acting matron does all the sewing lor the Jail.

There Is no reason why the prisoners should not do this sewing. As it Is. the women sit In Idleness or lie on the beds and sleep. The time spent in sewing by the acting matron would be much better spent In teaching and compelling the. prisoners to do this work.

'During the administration of Sheriff Walton, a covered bridge connecting Ihe second floor of the women's prison with the main building of the Jail, was constructed as a means of escape in cose of fire. The wisdom of this provision has always been tpies-tloned by the Women's Prison Association, as the bridge affords an easy means of access to tho women's prison for any unncrup- BROTHERS 1 -pj' fz a IrtHf r. 1 COCOA MimioHinTM email titiiiiui WARRANTED MRU POUND -pr 1 MAKE YOUR MARRIED LIFE HAPPY.

Of course a great many women are handicapped bv those ills to which women are heir. The constantly recurring troubles which afflict her are apt to cause a sour disposition, nervousness and a beclouded mind. Such a condition is not the natural one, but our present civilization has caused it to be more common than it was a hundred years ago.

Dr. Pierce says "The farther we get away from nature the more sure we are to be afflicted with disease. Try and get out in God's sunshine and the open air, and take healthful exercise as much as possible in it. When you are afflicted with bearing -down sensations, the constantly recurring pains, the draining on life's vitality, take prompt measures to remedy the trouble. The best way is to find a medicine which is close to nature's remedy." A good way to get a fair understanding of the womanly system, its care anil treatment is to read a good medical book like "The People's Common Sense Medical Adviser," by R.V.

Pierce, the specialist in woman's diseases, of Buffalo, N. after a long experience in treating such diseases, found that certain roots and herbs made into a liquid extract, would help the majority of cases. This he called Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. Thousands of women have testified to its merits, and it is put up in shape to be easily procured and is sold by all medicine dealers.

This is a potent tonic for the womanly system. So much faith have the makers and manufacturers that they offer f5X) RKWARD in legal money of the United States for any case of Female Weakness, Prolapsus, or Falling of the Female Organs, which they cannot cure. All they is a fair and reasonable trial of then-means of cure. They have the most remarkable record of cures made bv this world -famed remedy ever placed to the credit of any preparation especially designed for the cure of woman's peculiar ailments, THEN WHY CONTINUE to endure suffering caused by womanly diseases? There are many answers to that question. Sometimes because they have exhausted the skill of local physicians and remain uncured.

At other times it is because they shrink from submitting to obnoxious examinations which local physicians deem necessary. And to sum it. an up, mey endure sunenng oecause they do not know that Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription makes weak women rtrong and sick women well.

Vast Improvement Over Conditions of a Few Decades Ago, Says Dr. William H. Tolman. Dr. William Howe Tolman continued his course of lectures on "The Improvement of thd Conditions of Life in Cities" (Brooklyn Institute) by speaking at the Art Gallery last evening on "The Evils of the Tenement, and Improved Housing." This was espe cially iu lino with the spirit of municipal art, for In the Improved housing it was shown that tho plainest acd most serviceable structures are beautified by the addition of ornamental detail in the shape of leaders and pipes, window casings and Ironwork, all of which have eminently reason for being and none of which add to the expense because of the beauty of their simple lines.

Color also plays an important part. It hus been found that these, with lluht and air In sufficiency, and suitablo sanitary are fully appreciated In most cases by the people who most benefit by them, and this lesson In civics and In Christianity was Impressed upon the hearer by numbers of photographs. The history of tenement housing from the early part of the past century, as it existed in Manhattan, was given In photographs which vividly presented nil the horrorsof nar row courts, yards, dark passages, one or two room homes, where hoarders were taken sweat-shops, rag pickers' quarters, etc. Be fore telling of the latest improvements here, Dr. Tolman described the tenement house reform In Glasgow, Edinburgh.

Liver pool and London. Much the same plan Is followed in those four cities, especially in the "friendly" rent collectors, who muke it a point to become acquainted with the people from whom they collect and to aid them with advice on many points. Ground plans and pictures of Interiors of the model dwellings were of great interest. The interiors, the lecturer said, were obtained with great difficulty, as every English man or woman or child firmly bc- lieves that "his home is his castle." I Alter showing this valuable series. Dr.

Tolman offered, in contrast, the latest work of the kind in this cjty and It compared favorably in structure, though perhaps not In extent nor iu beauty of line. Hut our houses were erected to suit the conditions here and are models In every way. Ground plans and elevations, with Interior views, informed the onlookers as to the advantages of these buildings, particular attention being called to the fact that there are places on the roof for drying clothes, so Ihe disfiguring "pulley lines" are not in evidence. This, Dr. Tolman thought, a long step in the advancement of municipal art.

A point was made of the right of Ihe poor to Individual homes, especially of the rivht nt ihe children lor conditions suitable for their welfare, anil hints were given of branches of sociological questions to db considered in later lectures. Y. M. C. A.
