You Don't Become
a Slave to their Use!"

The above words have been
truthfully spoken concerning DIR.
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets by one
who has had abundant opportunity
to observe their more favorable &C
ton as compared with that of other
pills.
Most pills and medicines in use
for constipation, in the long run,
make bad matter worse" I'm
like such agents, DR.. Pierce's Pei
lets exert such a tonic or strength
ening effect upon the membranes
of the stomach and bowels, as to
produce lasting benefit. Their use
can, therefore, be gradually discon-
tinued. With most pills the longer
they are taken, the more dependent
upon their use the patient becomes.
Not so with the Pellets" Tier
secondary effect is to keep the bow
els open and regular, not to further
constipate. Hence, their great
popularity with sufferers from hab-
itual constipation.
The Pellets cure costiveness, or
constipation, biliousness, sick and
bilious headache, dizziness, sour
stomach, loss of appetite, coated
tongue, indigestion, or dyspepsia,
windy belchings, heartburn"
pain and distress after eating, and
kindred arrangements of the liver.
stomach and bowels. One little
Pellet is a laxative, two are
mildly cathartiC.
They are tiny, sugar-coated gran
ules; any child will readily take
them. Sold by all dealers.

BECAUSE

The wonderful cures ne mas made have
created condolences ard delight In the
hearts of those who have struggled In
vain against the ravages of nervous de-
bility and other diseases. until this sue
cessful doctor (whose picture appears
abOYe) cured them.
DIR. SWEANY does not allow the
names OF his patients OF their diseases to
be published or exposed. but he cures
them. He observes absolute confidence
and the strictest secrecy In all his pro-
fessional dealings
The DR. has thousands OF testimonials
on file in his private office and consulta-
ton rooms. They are not fictitious or So
licited. They are genuine. and were vol
UNFAIRLY given as true, deep, sincere and
heartfelt expressions OF gratitude and
thanks from our best merchants, manu-
facturers, mechanics. miners. ministers
farmers. lawyers, laborers and literary
people. who have been cured by him and
made happy. Examine them and learn
for yourself what he has accomplished
in cases just like yours. To do so would
make your heart leap with Joy and re-
newed hope.

a Drinking Dog.

A dog in Louisville loafs In a saloon
on Newspaper row and is a drunkard
The dog is only a common cur, but he
likes his toddy and must have IL every
day. Not a day passes that the dog
does not get drunk, and after getting
full he staggers behind the stove and
sleeps it off. The dog is II years old
and has made his home around the sa-
loon in question for the last nine years.
He never attempts to bite anyone. and
all who frequent the saloon think a
great deal of the dog. Often men will
visit the saloon just for the purpose of
seeing the dog and get him drunk. His
liquor is given him in a saucer and he
likes il like many a man.

Flckle James Sim pson.

James Norris Simpson is the name of
a comparatively young man who has
been employed as piano player in diff
ferent resorts of this city for several
years. He is married and Mrs. Simp-
son, an estimable lady, has until quite
recently been keeping boarders at No.
524 Fourth avenue north, an aristocrat-
ic neighborhood where many of the Sc

weeks ago Mrs. Simpson closed her
house and went east to visit relatives.
During her absence, Simpson, who is
anything but an attractive appearing
man, is alleged to have become infat-
uated with frankie DuBose, a sporting
woman, who has been conducting a re-
sort known as the Bachelor Club" at
217 Second street south. The house was
not furnished as frankie desired, and
Simpson is said to have moved the fur
niture from his north side residence TO
the Bachelors Club" resort. He then
notified his absent wife that he would
not live with her longer, giving as a
reason that her religious views did not
meet his approval. Upon receipt of the
letter. Mrs. Simpson took the first train
home and on her arrival at Great Falls
last week a reconciliation took place
between the two and happiness reigned
supreme again. Monday last Simpson
advised his wife that he had been Of

sibly for Missoula. bidding his wife an
aifectionate farewell at the depot
