THE AMERICAN CRAFTSMAN.
The Representative Of Ameri-
can Skill and industry.

No finer picture of the typical Amer
lean craftsman has ever been sketched
than that of the village blacksmith, as
Longfellow drew him:
"Toiling, rejoicing, sorrowing,
Onward through life he goes,
Each morning sees some task begun
Each evening sees 1t close.
Something attempted, something done
Has earned a nights repose."
Behold the man! The typical Amer
lean craftsman. He typiies the inven-
tive skill of his countrymen; the fore
most inventive skill of the world. He
typilies the dignity of the handicrafts-
man as he stands at the anvil, swart
and bsawny, beating out the rudy
iron, framed In an aureole Of glowing
sparks. He is the national pattern of
honest self-esteem as "he looks the
whole world in the face, for he owes
not any man." He stands up the liv-
ing picture of manly health and vigor,
the hope of the country's growth in
years of peace, and of her victories in
days of war. To look at him suggests
his national value as appraised by
Goldsmith:
I'm fares the land, to fastening ills a
prey,
When wealth accumulates and men
decay"
For above all else this craftsman is
a man; a man in health, a man in
strength, a man in achievement.
The Downfall of the United States
will date from the day when this type

The Last is First.
That may be said of Golden Medi-
cal Discovery" 1t is often the last
medicine to be tried, after everything
else has failed, and it proves itself the
first medicine to help. 1t always helps.
1t most always cures.
After three years of suffering with
liver trouble and malaria | gave UP all
hopes of ever getting stout again, and
the last chance was to try your medi-
cine" writes Mr.. Edward Jacobs, of
Marengo, Crawford Co., Indiana. Il
had tried the home doctors and re-
ceived but little relief. After taking
three bottles of DR.. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery and one vial of his
Pleasant Pellets | am stout and
hearty. 1t is due entirely to your won
derful medicines"
Your Golden Medical Discovery
has performed a wonderful cure"
writes Mr.. NJ. H. House, of Charleston,
Franklin Co., Ark. Il had the worst
case of dyspepsia, the doctors say, that
they ever saw. After trying seven doc
tors and everything l could hear of,
with no benefit, l tried DIR. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery and now I
am cured"
There is no alcohol in Golden Medi-
cal Discovery" and it is absolutely
free from opium, cocaine and all other
narcotics.
All persons suffering from disease in
chronic form are invited to consult Dr..
Pierce, by letter, free.
The success of DR.. Pierce and his
associate staff of nearly a score of ply
sieians is shown by the fact that of the
hundreds of thousands of cases treated
in the past thirty years and more.
there is a record of ninety-eight per
cent. of cures. And as a rule the peo-
pie cured applied to DR.. Pierce when
their disease was at its worst. when
other medicines had failed, and doc
tors pronounced a cure hopeless.
All correspondence is absolutely pri-
waite and confidential. Address DR.. R.
V. Pierce. Buffalo. n. Y.

tute for the Discovery represented

substitution is the larger profit paid by
inferior medicines. There is nothing
just as good as Golden Medical Dis
covery."
The Tree of knowledge
never bore better fruit than ome in
the form of DR.. Pierce's Common Sense
Medical Adviser. 1t combines the
richest researches of scholarly minds
with the ripest results of modern med
zeal practice. 1t tells everything in
plain English. II fills the need of
every family for a practical guide to
health and medicine. This valuable

Will Mark the Elaborate Celebration
of Grocers' Day Tomorrow.
When the busy grocer takes a day
off, he shuts up shop with the deter
mination of having a royal good time,
and when a bunch of the fraternity is
gathered for this purpose they cele-
brate on a big scale, while the good
cheer is dispensed to others within
close radius with the same genialty
that marks the attitude of the grocer
to his customer. 'Grocers' Day" is sy-
nonymous with a good time for all
hands round, and that the multitude
at Mozart Park tomorrow afternoon
and evening will enjoy themselves to
the limit is taken for granted.
A prize cake walk under the leader
ship of Prof. bill" Turner; a wood
saving contest between local drum
mers; a prize waltz; foot races and
bowling contests-these are a few of
the numbers on the days programme.
Three balloon ascensions, dropping
cards, the return of which entities the
holder to- sack of -four, will be an
other feature. The committees in
charge have been announced and are as
follows:

NEW YORK, June ia special to

NEW YORK, June ia special to
the Tribune from Washington says:
To meet the exceedingly grave compli-
cation that has developed in Northern
China and in order that the United
States may be comrnensurably repre-
sented in the relief and protective
measures forced upon the foreign ma
tons, the President has directed Gen.
Macarthur to send three regiments of
regulars to Tien Tsin, which, with
their support of commissary, field sig
nal men and medical staff, will make
a force of 5000. Admiral Remey has
Taku as DON as she can start. She
will take extra marines and sailors
from the Monterey, now with her at
Hong Kong.
The Oregon is sent because of her
great moral effect and the large num-
Der of men she carries. The Iris is ex-
pected to leave Manila tomorrow for
Taku with food, coal and ammunition
for nine hundred men for three
months, for Admiral Kempff's squad
ron. She will take at least eight days
tt make the voyage. The Solace,
which left Manila with one hundred
marines last Wednesday, is due at
Taku.
The announcement of the return to
Tien Tsin of the combined brigade af-
ter a weeks fruitless efforts to reach
Pekin is regarded as of the highest i'm
portance. 1t not only confirms the be-
lief of the
Desperate Condition of Affairs
at the Chinese capital, but is thought
to explain why it was necessary to
seize the Taku forts. If the command
ers of the combined fleet below the
forts learned of the expeditions re-
turn to Tien Tsin, that city being in
possession of mobs, it must have been
necessary to send reinforcements and
provisions up the river promptly, no
matter If the SUN had set. The Chi
AOOO 6Q4otACA9 PNi Via ~
pass the forts at night under any Cir
cumstances. For the same reasons the
gates of Pekin are closed inexorably
at sun set and not reopened until sun
rise.
Dispatches say the forts fired three
quarters of an hour after midnight,
which bears out the suggestion that
the gunboats were sent UP the river
with food supplies from the feet out
side, and were fred upon for violating
the regulations. With the forts as
basis the powers are expected to form
a large force as speedily as possible to
begin a determined relief expedition
of sufficient force to open the railway.
No further restrictions will operate to
impede the landing forces, particularly
those of Japan.

triton. If it cures many forms Of dis
ease which seem remote from the stom-
ach it is because these diseases have
their origin in a diseased condition Of
the stomach and its associated organs.
BY way Of illustration, suppose a
meal cooked In a copper kettle tainted
with the poison of verdigris. Every
body who partakes of the food cooked
in the poisoned kettle is poisoned By
the food, and every meal cooked and
served from that poisoned vessel VIII
poison the eaters until the kettle is
cleansed from poison. 1t is something
like that with the stomach. In he
stomach the food is prepared by the
digestive processes for the nutrition
Of the body. If the stomach IL dis
eased the food must be contaminated,
and as the blood which feeds every orr
gan of the body is made from food,
every organ of the body will be con-
taminated by its food supply. And
this condition will continue until the
stomach is healed of its diseases.
DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov-
cry, by healing diseases of the stom-
ach enables the whole body to receive
it's food supply of pure, rich blood, and
SO cures through the stomach diseases
of other organs remote from the
stomach.
