STOP WOMEN
from exercising common sense? You
can't do it. AS the old rhyme runs

from exercising common sense? You
can't do it. AS the old rhyme runs
The mans fool who tries by force or skill
To turn the current Of u woman's will
And if she Won't She Won't, SO fieres | an end ontn
Common sense tells woman that when
she's sick she needs doctor.
Common sense tells a woman that in
disease the first question is not of man or
woman, but of recognized medical ability.
Common sense applied to advertisements
Which invite women to write to a woman
because she is woman and understands
women, " will show the women so appealed
to, that it's no use to write to any woman
about disease unless that woman is a
physician
Common sense used in the reading Of
advertisements will discover that no claim
is made in them to a physicians knowl-
edge or diploma And that is not because
the claim would be morally culpable as
lie, but because it would be legally pun
ishable as fraud. The law permits you to
masquerade as a doctor in an advertise
ment, just so long as you don't actually
claim to be a doctor, or put NJ. D. after
your name. That's why the advertisement
is worded write to a woman" instead of
write to doctor.
Common sense has brought more than
halfa-nillion women, afflicted with some
form of female disease, to DR.. R. V. Pierce
as one of the most expert physicians in the
United States in the treatment of female
diseases. DR.. Pierce is a specialist. He
has given more than thirty years of active
practice to the treatment of female dis
eases. DIR. Pierce is not physician - by
courtesy. He is physician regularly grad
uated, legally empowered to practice and
with thirty years of experience in the treat
ment of diseases of women, which he has
made his specially. .
The offer of free consultation by letter
made by DIR. Pierce is real offer, an honest
offer. 1t is an offer backed by medical
institution, with worldwide reputation,
a staff of nearly score of regularly grad
uated physicians, practice which reaches
every state in the Union and a record of
more than half-a-million women treated
and ninety eight out of every hundred
perfectly cured
Write to doctor. That's the first thing
White to The doctor. That's the next thing
The woman's doctor, is DR.. R. v. Pierce,

THEY WANT II OPENED
Higgins Avenue Crossing of the
Northern Pacific.
THE SAME OLD QUESTION
1t Has Been Raised Many Times During
the Last Three Years-The Mat
ter Will Be Thoroughly
Investigated

MissOula. Dec. 1.-The city council
will hold its regular meeting Monday
night. As far as is known the only
business of importance that will come
up outside of the regular routine bust
ness is the consideration of a petition
for the reopening of the Higgins ave-
nue. crossing of the Northern Pa
cifc. This is the same question that
has been raised 80 often during the
past two or three years.
The crossing is the one that is closed
by the ruins of the new railway station
which was destroyed by fire before it
was ready for occupancy. The people
of the north side have been incon-
venienced by the closing of the crossing
and now ask to have it opened unless
the station is to be built again at once.
In opposition to this it is stated that
the station will probably be rebuilt in
the spring and that it is unwise to force
the opening Of the crossing until it is
positively known that this rebuilding
will not be done. The matter Will prob
ably be thoroughly investigated by the
council when this present petition is
presented.

They Are Surprised.

Missoula, Dec. 1.-The university stu
dents were surprised at the poor show
ing made by their team at Bozeman
Thursday, and are at loss in the alb
sence of particulars of the game, to
account for it. unless the men who
were injured were crippled in the early
part of the game. 1t was not expected
that the university team would win, as
the Bozeman team had shown at the
Misscula game that it was remark
ably strong. However, it was thought
the university boys would be able TO
make some showing against the farm
ers. The university team will play to-
morrow at Helena on their way home,
and Cleveland and Taylor left tonight
to take the places of the injured men
on the field

TREASURE BURIED in A SWAMI
Florida Negro Mourns Because He Cam
not Recover His Masters Gold.

Florida Negro Mourns Because He Can
not Recover His Masters Gold
There is an old negro, Uncle Tom
Weston, down On the Florida side of
the Okefinokee swamp, who has raved
for 30 years about a buried treasure
which he is unable to recover. He says
his old master buried $4,000 in gold
during the civil war when Sherman's
army was marching through Georgia.
He carried the treasure box for his
master and dug the hole in the swamp
in which the gold was buried. An acct
dent made him blind before the war
and he was not able to see where the
treasure was concealed. His master
died during the war without recovering
the gold and left no instructions con-
corning it.
Uncle Tom has suffered from rheu-
matism for many years and Is Grip
pie. Though he is blind and crippled
Uncle Tom has made many trips to the
swamp in quest of the hidden treasure,
only to be disappointed. The old man
is afraid somebody has already dis
covered it, as he understands several
parties instituted a search. He is the
oldest negro in the Okefinokee region
and he sits on his doorstill all day WON
derirg about the buried treasure and
scrrowing because he must die without
succeeding in recovering it.

A Matter of Wages.

The efforts which importers Of choco-
late are now making to get n lower
appraisement on imported chocolate
recalls the report which was made to
the Ways and Means Committee in
1897, when the provisions of the Ding
ley law were being considered. 1t was
stated in that report that ain the
United States in our the chocolate)
industry men are paid for ten hours
work from SO to $40 per week; women
are paid for ten hours work from Sc
to $12 per week. In Europe, in the
largest factories, their rates for men
for twelve hours work are from "a to
So per week and for women for twelve
hours work from $3.50 to So per week"
1t will be seen from these figures that
wages in this country are from $50 to
400 per cent. higher than wages In
Europe. The slightest investigation
will show. furthermore that what Is
true in respect to the wages OF the en-
ployes In chocolate manufactures ia
true, In a greater or lesser degree. OF
workers In all branches Of industry.
In the face Of such facts arguments
In favor Of protective tariff would
seem to be superfluous, and conscien-
tious efforts to collect the rightful Gus.
toms duties should be appreciated by
every American workman as well as
by every American manufacturer.

follows: "a justice of the peace Is

Eryan and Jefferson.


Mr.. Bryan is most aggressive, IL not
almost violent, In insisting that he be
recognized as the exponent of Jeffer-
sonian Democracy, believing probably
that the name Of Jefferson will be n
name to conjure with and to draw to
him the support Of many not now num-
bered among his followers. 1t would
pay better IL Mr.. Bryan would adopt
Jefferson's principles. At present he
lacks one very serious quality for be-
ing n follower Of Jefferson. Jefferson
believed In all things American. He
believed In encouraging American in
dustries, and in using American made
goods. Mr.. Bryan has put himself on
record times without number us being
opposed to any system Of protective
tariff, declaring on one occasion that a
tariff Of 10 per cent. was as unJustifia-
