The suggestion that the farmers OF
Aroostook raise barley, for which the
soil OF that region Is peculiarly fitted,
the barley 20 be sold 20 the Hon. Frank
Jones OF Portsmouth, y. H., and con-
verted into beer, has raised a storm OF
protest. Patrons of Husbandry and
Methodisis have formally resolved
against il. Here we may discover some
complicated questions Of cssulstry. IL
IL Is wrong for the farmers 10 raise bar
lev for Frank Jones 10 use in making
beer, would il be wrong for a man 20
set up threshing machine and thresh
out that barley for good clean money
And how about the man who sells plows
and harrows and respers 10 be used IN
preparing the ground and harvesting
the crop on barley farm: Or TO 90 a
step further, how about the man who
sells hay 10 feed the horses Of the man
who threshes the barley, or Who sells
iron 70 the reaper manufacturer: And
sitter YOU hsve followed out all the ram
ifications Of these questions, You can
simply cut the knot OF the matter az one
stroke, and conclude that a man who
disbelieves in beer, and Vet raises barley
and sells il 10 be made into beer, will
have an uncomfortable feeling about il,
In spite Of all argument.

experienced and successful physician and
his "Favorite Prescription" has cured
more women than all the doctors The

told in thousands of testimonials similar
to the one of ]. F. Beverly, Esq, of Goliad

peculiar case, and said that if desired could
consult some other physician. So wrote to DR..
R. V. Pierce, and after receiving answer from
Dr. Pierce did as he directed. My wife used
two bottles of DR.. Pferce's Favorite Prescription,
one bottle of DIR. Pitrceis Pellets, and used the
local home-treatment he advised Before my
wife had used the hrst bottle of the medicine she
felt the good effect and said one bottle would be
enough. insisted on her using two bottles, and
she did So Now she ISIS sound and well, and I
