urged to write TO woman on the plea
of receiving a "woman's sympathy"
and because "a woman best under

If a woman understands disease. she
understands ii not as a woman but as 4
physician. Mere sympathy wont re-
lieve pain or cure disease. The need Ia
of competent medical advice. AS far
as known there Is no qualified woman
physician connected with any proprie-

competent to give medical advice. Ii Is
certain that no one else can offer as

SO cheerfully."
There's an advantage in this consul
tation by letter which the modesty OF
women is quick to see and take advan-
tage of. 1t does away with the indeli-
cate questionings, the offensive examin-
ations and local treatments, of the aver
age physician. It's an entirely private
consultation. The letter is read as pri-
vately as it is written. It's contents are
held as absolutely sacred. The an
swer is sent in a perfectly plain envel-
ope bearing upon it no printing or ad-
vertising to show where ii comes from.
Every woman can write freely, frankly
and fearlessly, knowing that she Will
receive friendly as well as medical ad-
vice from the most competent author
ity.
Sometimes a natural doubt arises as
to how DR.. r. V. Pierce can be so sure
of succeeding where others fail But
the fact is easy to explain. There was
a woman once celebrated for her AN
gels food" A friend went 70 her and
begged the recipe. 1t was given her
with the most careful cautions as to
making and baking. The friend went
home delighted She started right of
to make cake. She measured, she
weighed. she mixed, she tasted But
the cake came out OF the oven a fiat
failure. She tried again. No better re-
suit. Then she said the woman had
deceived her in the recipe But the
woman took the same recipe and made
a cake that melted in the mouth. Now,
why couldn't the friend make the cake
just as well as the woman that gave
the recipe? Because the woman
couldn't give the friend with the re-
cipe the skill and experience that went
into her success.
That explains Or. pierce's success.
The same sources Of knowledge are
open to any physician. But with the
same facilities that DR.. Pierce has they
fail because they Lack the experience

1neres no satisfying soue .~~.-e,
especially when the pocketbook Is
touched. That is what makes the main
unhappiness of many a good wife. she
works hard. she devotes herself to
husband and family. But when she
wants a dollar she has 10 beg for it,
and probably he asks: why, where S
that dollar l gave you the other day?"
The "other day" is weeks ago. 1t
would serve the man right TO let him
find an empty table at dinner time, and
when he asked for dinner ask him:
Where's that dinner you had yester-
day." But the wife doesn't do that.
She tries to manage along" And this
is not SO bad when it's only a. question
of a new gown or hat. But when it's
a question of health, it is very differ
emit.
1t is undoubtedly the case that many
a woman lets little ailments grow to
great diseases. sooner than ask her
husband to pay a Doctors fee. The
husband is not unkind at heart. If he
knew there was anything wrong he'd
be the first to propose a doctor. But
he doesn't note the slow change in his
wife's appearance and he doesn't feIl
the pains and aches which make the
days work drudgery.
1t is under circumstances such as
these that women appreciate the offer
of DIR. r. V. Pierce, of consultation by
letter, free. DR.. Pierce is not only a
physician. He is a specialist in wo-
mans diseases. For more than thirty
years as chief consulting physician to
the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Insti-
tute, at Buffalo, N. Y, he has made dis
eases peculiar to women an especial
study. He has treated more than half
million of cases, and ninety-eight out
of every hundred treated have been
positively cured. Thousands of cases
have been reached by what so many
have called that God-send to women"
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription. Its
efficacy on stopping facilitating and Of
fensive drains, curing liberation, in
flammation, and bearing down pains is
testified by thousands of grateful wo
men who have consulted DR.. Pierce as
to their health and ailments.

The KOOntz coal mine was closed
down on Tuesday at noon, on account
of lack OF orders and the prospects
at present are not very bright for an
early resumption of operations. The
bank has not been working steadily
ever since it lost the Riverside con-
tract, and as it appears that the COM
pany cannot compete with the other
mines in the vicinity in prices, it is
generally believed that the mine has
nearly played out.
