woMAN's APPEAL. ANSWERED.

Hundreds of thousands of women
have appealed to DR.. Pierce, for relief
from womanly ills and not one has APP
pealcd in vain. The use of DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription supplemented by
the medical advice of DIR. Pierce has
been the means of cure to this vast army
of women suffering from diseases pecul-
lar to the sex.

ceived from using your remedies,n
writes Mrs. Alice Soncrant, of 26I w.
Harrison Street, Chicago, Ills. 1.-TWO
years ago I was taken with a severe pain
in the left ovary and side. Tried several
different remedies, but nothing helped
me. got so bad could scarcely walk
across the floor or do work of any kind.
One day an old neighbor lady came in
to see me, and told me to try DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription. She
said she knew it would help me, as it
had saved her life. When the doctors
had given her up and said they could
do nothing for her she said she began to
take DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription
and it cured her. So got bottle of
the Favorite Prescription and one of
Golden Medical Discovery and began
taking them. Before had taken one
bottle of each I was SO much better
could do all my own work, and that is
good deal, as am the mother Of four

ing one w III Holmes, of Lincoln
township, with selling Intoxicating

The editor of the Vallisca Re-
view, an old newspaper man, gives
the follow ng advice: Be kind to
your neighbor and lend him your
paper to read if he does not take
Que, and do not humiliate him
by compelling him to ask for it
but lay it out where he can find il
when he comes in. Don't be SO
uncharitabie as to hide it because
he is as able to pay for it as you
are. Perhaps he has conscien-
tIous scruples against paying out
his own money for paper he can
get the reading of for nothing
Perhaps he is mad at the editor
for saying too much or too little
about him in which case the paper
don't amount to anything and he
wouldn't have the dirty thing
around. But he wants to read
it all the more to see "what the
fool has to say" He has a
right to think it good enough to
criticize, although not take and
pay for it. SO humor the fellow
and give him your paper to
read. You may get your back
up at the editor somo time and
want the compliment returned.

not give them a kick downward when

cause men have gone wrong, is there
no reason they cannot do right. The
greatest drawback to right doing by

a cold shoulder.-Joe Trigg.

made in the letters grateful women
write to Dr. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. Y,
is this: III owe my life to DR.. Pierce"
These women have found themselves in
great danger. They have appealed
without avail to local physicians. They
have counseled in vain with women

for them was just to keep them afoat in

failing, in the hope that the man who
had strength and skill to save them
might be found.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

BY local applications, as they cam
not reach the diseased portion Of the
ear. There Is only one way to cure
deafness, and that Is by cUnstitu-
tional remedies. Deafness Is caused
by an inflamed condition OF the lining
OF the EustuchIun Tube. When this
tube is inflamed you have arumbling
sound orimperiect hearing, and when
1t is entirely closed Deafness is the
result, and unless the inflammation
can be taken out and this tube re-
stored tn it's normal condition hear
ing will be destroyed forever; nine
cases out OF ten are caused by Catarrh,
which is nothing but an inflamed con-
dition OF the mucous surfaces.
We will give One Hundred Dollars
for any case OF Deafness (caused by
Catarrh) that cannot be cured by
