Of 1888 Orange Street, Los Angeles, Cal,
writes: III had been afflicted with my
eyes for over year with such dreadful
itching and inflammation that 1 could
not use them for anything. Physicians
had given me many different remedies
which were like using so much water
they measured my eyes for glasses, which
1 got and wore for some time, but they
did not benefit me in the least. Ny
mother desired me to write to DR.. r. V.
Pierce and explain the condition of my
eyes. did So and after following your
advice, and using eight bottles of the
Favorite Prescription and eight Of the
Golden Medical Discovery can say my
trouble is entirely cured. I would advise
any one so afflicted TO try these wonder
full medicines. My health was never SO
good as it is now, and I shall never tire
of praising DR.. Pierca's medicines"
Sick women are invited to consult DR..
Pierce by letter and secure specialists
advice free of charge.

Pity.
and
Beauty

The most beautiful thing in
the world is the baby, all
dimples and Joy. The most
pitiful thing is that same baby,
thin and in pain. And the
mother does not know that a
little fat makes all the differ
ence.
Dimples and JOY have gone,
and left hollows and fear; the
fat, that was comfort and
color and curve--all but pity
and love--is gone.
The little one gets no fat
from her food. There is some
thing wrong;itis either her food
or food-mill. She has had no
fat for weeks; is living on what
she had stored in that plump
little body of hers; and that is
gone. She is starving for fat;
it is death, be quick!
SCOTS Emulsion of Cod
Liver Oil is the fat she can
take; it will save her.

OUR CALENDARS FOR 1901.


We wish to announce to our patrons
that our Beautiful Souvenir Calendar
for 1901 will be ready for distribution
December Is, 1900, and that coupons
for the same can now be procured at
our store.
1t has been our custom since starting
in business to present our patrons at
the first of every year with calendar.
But we find even the distribution of
calendars has its drawbacks: in fact. to
such an extent that last year, although
our supply was much larger than ever
before, we were obliged to disappoint
many of our best customers on account
of our supply lasting only few days:
thus placing our out of town customers
at great disadvantage. Therefore we
have decided to give all our patrons an
equal chance, and no person ,riH be giren
calendar before January l. 1901 ,cho is
not entitled to a coupon.
This method we trust will meet your
approval, as we have been to great ex-
pense in selecting a calendar that will
be an ornament to any household and
have formulated this new idea in order
to give all our patrons fair show.

similar charges which was published In
the Lewiston Journal whereupon tbs
good Father Butler replies to him with
the effect of demoiishing every statement
made by him, citing non-Catholic au-
