There arc thousands OF people who
have desired 10 see what the bottom OF ON
oil-veIl looked like after hundred
quart torpedo lad been exploded In II,
says tho Phhadolphia Times. But no
ordinary mortal could crawl down six
inch hole to the depth of two thousand
feet II he wanted to. and no sane one
would want to II he could. SO the curi-
GUS oil-seeker has heretofore been COM
PEELED to guess as to the effect Of the tor
pedo shot.
An oil-country photographer has fur
nished the desired picture. The suc-
cessful experiment was made at Warren
on Thursday. The instrument wes let
down to the bottom OF l.700-foot well,
which had been subjected to torpedo
explosion. When the camera touched
bottom bright fash lit up the cavity,
impressing perfect picture on the mega
tive. A cavity fourteen feet broad nd
seven feet deep below the oil sand was
revealed. Into this cavity, enlarged by
the force of glycerine explosion, from
the ordinary six-inch drill hole the oil
sand was revealed. Into this cavity, Gu
larged by the force of glycerine explo-
sion from the ordinary six-inch hole, the
oil tiickled and accumulated, ready TO be
pumped to the surface.
Has nature any more secrets she would
like to hide from inquisitive man? III
SO, they vii! noed to be buried beyond
the reach of the oil-driller's steel auger.
Into the deepest recesses the drill can
penetrate. the modern photographer
stands ready to turn the broad light Of
noonday.

Only a medicine possessed of extraordi-
nary merits could sustain itself under
such business policy The Golden
Medical Discovery I" is such medicine,
and has proven its ability to sustain its
proprietors, even though sold on such
extraordinary terms.
AS n remedy for all Blood, Skin and
Scalp Diseases, 1t has won for itself
world wide fame. Especially has it
manifested its potency In curing Salt
rheum, Eczema, letter, Pfmples,
Blotches, Eruptions, old Scrofulous
Sores, Ulcers, and kindred ailments.
AS n remedy for the peculiar weak
nesses, distressing Irregularities, and
painful arrangements incident to
women, DR.. Pierce's Favorite Pre-
scription stands alone rs the only rem
edy guaranteed to give satisfaction IN
eUery case, or money paid for IL Is
promptly refunded.
1t Is but natural that the people
should bestow their patronage upon
these medicines, since none other are
sold on such fair and liberal terms.
They are manufactured by the Worlds
Dispensary Medical Association, of Buff
falo, N. Y, house whose financial
standing and reputation for fair dealing
is well-known to every publisher, MS
well as to every druggist, throughou:
the civilized world.

ENORMOUS SHIPMENTS.

Frequent shipments of carload lots
Of DR.. Pierce's Medicines, to all the
principal commercial centers of this
country, are necessary to supply the
unprecedented demand for these world
famed remedies. No other medicines
ever attained anything like the popu-
larity which they enjoy. No other
medicines possess such superior and
positive curative properties as to war
rant their manufacturers in selling
them, rs the proprietors of DIR. Pierce's
Medicines are doing, through druggists,
under n positive guarantee of benefit
or cure IN euery case, on fair trial, or
money refunded.
There are scores of sarsaparillas and
other blood medicines advertised, but
the "Golden Medical Discovery Of DIR.
Pierce is the only one ever backed up by
positive guarantee from well-known
and thoroughly responsible house. The
conditions are, that, given fair trial, 1t
will do all that Is claimed for IL, or
money paid for 1t will be promptly re-
funded. A Certificate of Guarantee
wraps every bottle.
To attempt the sale of an inferior, or
even fairly good, blood-purifier under
such trying conditions as these, would
mean bankruptcy to its proprietors.

the question TO be decided by the Senate

Is thought advisable. they will announce
