To be cautious in the choice of medi-
cines. Many are injured by trying ex-
perinents with compounds purporting
TO be blood purifiers, the principal
recommendation of which would seem
to be their "cheapness." Being made
up of worthless, though not always
harmless. ingredients, they may well
be Cheap" but, in the end, they are
dear. The most reliable medicines are
costly, and can be retailed at mod
crate prices, only when the manufacture

in large quantities. 1t is economy,
therefore.

Pensions.

IenSi0hSs
Some veterans of the war Of the
rebellion resident in the northwest
have associated themselves together
for the purpose of presenting to
their comrades the truth concerning
Grover Cleveland's attitude upon
the pension question.
No man of merit who suffered in
the military service of his country
during the days of the rebellion; no
soldier with honorable wounds who
now has place upon the pension
list; no modest, deserving veteran
has ground for complaint against
the citizen who became chief mag
istrate of the nation and sought by
thorough and demonstrations attention
to pension bills to prevent the pen
sion roll from becoming m asylum
for persons who had no merit and
no claim upon the gratitude of the
public. No self respecting soldier,
whether he is upon the pension list
or not, demurs for a minute to the
attitude which Grover Cleveland as
sumed toward those persons whom
the real soldier, never a skulker or a
maligner, viewed with contempt
when he was in the field. Pension
legislation has been made too free
and carried too far, and Grover
Cleveland had the courage to say so
upon this occasion when it ought to
be said.
A politician has no genuine re,
gard for the grizzled veteran who
would expend hundreds of millions
of the peoples money to place side
by side with such a veteran a
thirty or a hundred day volunteer
who never heard a hostile gun.

of health the woman who has
faithfully used DIR. Pieree's Favor
tie Prescription. She feels well and
she looks so. It's q medicine that
makes her well, whether she's over
worked and "run-down," Or afflicted
with any of the distressing diseases
and disorders peculiar to her sex.

all chronic weaknesses. functional
arrangements, and "female COM
plants" of every kind, it's an I'M
failing remedy.

ton, in any case, you have your
money back.
