Sherlock Holmes, is a man who reads
clues, as the Indian reads trail. Every
step he takes is a step to success.
It's much the same way in the detec-
ton of disease. While the amateur is
laundering along over misleading symp-
toms, the specialist goes right to the real
cause and puts an arresting hand upon
the disease. It is In such way that
DR.. r. W Pierce, chief consulting physi-
clan to the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical
Institute, Buffalo, N. Y, succeeds in
hunting out and arresting diseases, where
the less experienced practitioners fail.
More than thirty years of special study
and experience have enabled DIR. Pierce
to read symptoms as easily and as truly as
the Indian reads trail which is without
hint for a less acute vision than his.
Any sick perlpn Can consult DR.. Pierce

CONDITIONS IN MONTGOMERY.
MARYLAND County Likely to Give Re
publican Majority.

ROCKVILLE, Md, October IL. 1900.
In many respects political conditions In
Montgomery county are very similar to
what they were four years ago. NOW, as
then, the republicans are united. While the
democrats are no more harmonious than In
the gold democrats voting for Mr.. Bryan
does not truthfully apply to this county
Four years ago the Palmer and Buckner
ticket received fifty-seven votes. 1t Is as
serted by those In position to Judge tnat
time vote for Mr.. Mckinley. 1t is also
believed that practically all Of those dem
ocrats who four years ago supported MT
Mckinley will do so this year.
A prominent Rockville democrat. VINO Is
known as a regular, recently stated to The
Stars correspondent that. after carefui IN
quiry he has learned Of but two democrats
who supported Mr.. Mckinley four years
ago who will not again cast their votes TOT
him. He also gave it as his opinion that
the Palmer and Buckner democrats Will
vote solidly for the republican presidential
nominee.
Judging from what is true in Rockville
district, there is reason to believe that a
large number of votes which were cast for
Mr. Bryan in his last fight will this year
go to Mr.. Mckinley. In the town of Rock
willie alone seven former Bryanites have de-
ley, and reports indicate that the same Is
true In other sections of the county.
The facts stated. taken in connection with
the certainty that the republicans have.
made substantial gains in the registration,
leads to the belief that the claims Of the
republican managers that the county will
give q republican majority are based OH
good grounds. Four years ago Mr.. Bryan
carried the county by 2i0 majority. 1t
seems hardly possible that his majority will
be greater this tfme. It will probably be
considerabiy reduced and Il may bs wiped
out a1t0Eethok
