CURIOUS CUCkOOS

The cuckoo is generally known onlv
as bird with very monotonous note :
continuous cry OF Cuckoo, cuckoo"
over and over again. Among llatlralists.
however the cuckoo is known Nc bird
that never builds nest for itself. but
takes advantage of one already built by
some more industrious bird,
There is a good deal of the cuckoo
about these advertisers who, instead of
making a success of their own. seek to
profit by the success which some one
else has made with much effort and
labor. 1t IS SO with those limitations of
DIR. fierce's methods, by which free
medical advice is offered, although those
who make the offer are without qualified
medical ability or experience. And the
cry raised Ill some cases of woman,
woman, woman write to woman " makes
the resemblance to the cuckoo even
stronger
There is as far as known no qualified
woman physician connected with any
proprietary medicine establishment, and
hone therefore competent to give mcdi-
cal advice. 1t is certain that there is no
one, man or woman, who can offer free
medical advice backed by such knowl-
edge and experience as is possessed by
DR.. X. V. Pierce, chief consulting phy-
sician to the Worlds Dispensary, Buffalo,
n. y. For over thirty years DR.. Pierce
has made specially of the treatment
OF diseases peculiar to women. In that
time he has treated over half-a-million
women. ninety eight per cent Of whom
have been perfectly cured. Every sick
woman is invited to consult DR. Pierce
by letter absolutely without charge or
cost. Every letter is held as strictly pri-
vate and sacredly confidential, and all
answers are mailed securely sealed in
perfectly plain envelopes bearing no
printing whatever upon them.

Samaritan fort Of Quallah Batoo in
punishment of pirates. and burned the
sons work. In 1858 we fought with
FijiS, who had murdered Americans.
In 1860 we defeated the Kumassi ma

had murdered ship wrecked sailors. In
1868 We took the forts at Shimonoseki
because the Prince of Satsuma had
broken treaty and permitted wrecked
