head, the aching back, and the dragging

weak and sick woman to do is to look
for cure of the disease which causes
her misery.

is observed by DR.. Pierce and his staff in
personal consultation at the Invalids'
Hotel and Surgical Institute, Buffalo,
N. Y. Address all correspondence to
DR.. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y.
In little over thirty years, assisted
by his staff of nearly a score OF physi-
clans, DR.. Pierce, chief consulting paysi-
clan to the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical
Institute, Buffalo, N. ", has treated and
cured hundreds of thousands of sick and
suffering women.
There is no similar offer of free con-
sultation by letter or free medical advice,
having behind it an institution such as
the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical Insti-
tute, Buffalo, N. ", with its fine equip
ment and skilled medical staff. The free
consultation by letter, offered by DIR.
Pierce, puts it into every sick woman's
power to have the opinion of specialist
on her condition. specialist whose
great success in the treatment and cure
of womanly diseases, is in itself an en-
enlargement to every sick woman. OF
the hundreds of thousands of women
treated by DIR. Pierce, ninety-eight per
cent have been permanently cured.
"Favorite Prescription contains no
alcohol and is entirely free from opium,
cocaine and all other narcotics.
If you are persuaded to try DIR. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription because it has
cured other women, do not allow the
dealer to foist on you less meritorious
medicine which he claims to be cjust as
good" There is no motive for such
substitution except the little more profit
made by the dealer on the sale Of the
less meritorious preparation.
A VALUABLE GIFT
for any young couple is DIR. Pierce's
Common Sense Medical Adviser, con-
tanning 1908 large pages and oyer 700
illustrations. This book will be sent
free to any address on receipt of stamps
to pay expense of mailing only. Send

SITE FOR HOSPITAL.
Oskaloosa College and Grounds
Offered to City.

]. NJ. Stoke, secretary and treas
urer, in behalf of the trustees has
offered TO the Board of Management
of the oskaloosa Hospital, the!Oska-
loosa College building and grounds
for use as a site for the proposed in
stitution. This is valuable and most
suitable property, and the only con-
tinguency to an absolute deed is the
payment of debts on the property
amounting to about 81 500. The offer
is a most generous one andlwill have
the prompt and careful consideration
of the hospital board.
The wording of the offer is as fol-
lows:
Oskaloosa, Iowa, Feb. Is, '01.
To the Committee on Location of a
City Hospital.-GeRtleme Where
as the Oskaloosa College building and
campus are not at present fulfilling
the mission intended, and whereas
the city and citizens of Oskaloosa
have, in years past, contributed gen.
erously TO the support of Oskaloosa
College, therefore, it is desired that
some recognition be made for past
kindnesses by turning over to the
proper parties, to be used for hospital
purposes, the said Oskaloosa College
building and tract of land equiva-
lent to one full block. AS a slight
consideration therefor, the sum of
81 500 is asked to enable the trustees
of Oskaloosa College to close up it's
affairs in a manner satisfactory to all
parties interested. Trusting that this
offer will aid you in determining the
best interests of the community in
this matter, we remain,
Yours truly,

CHILDISH COMFORT.
"Never Mind, Mamma, Baby
Loves You"

But the childish voice is almost un-
needed. The wife and mother has come
to place where love cannot comfort
her, where even the voice and words of
love are so blent with her own misery
that they seem to increase it.
Imagine magnificent orchestra play
ing in factory amid the ring of ham
mers and the rattle and grooming of ma
chinery. The discords would dominate
the harmony and the harmony itself
merge into discords. That is the way it
is with all the music of love when a
woman is wrenched and racked by pain.
1t seems to become part of the very dis
cord of her life.

AR1zoNA's HOPE.
She is Prepared to Make a strong Push for Statehood This Winter

New York World.
 Arizona has petitioned for Statehood many times during the thirty-elght years of her Territorial organization. But Tn pleading before the coming session or Congress that she may become NO. 4o Tn the sisterhood of States, she means to make her most determined effort' A committee headed by the copper mag nate William c. Greene, has been ap- pointed to carry on the campaign at Washington. and the neighboring Terri tory of New Mexico will join, perhaps not all unselfshly, in the struggle.
 Arizona, judged by the precedents or past admissions, has the requisite popu- lation for a State and has gained 1t rap idly. The census of 1870 accounted Tor 965S people; that of 1880 gave 4o,44o' m
 1890 the figures were 59,62O; in 1900 the to-
 tai was l22,93l a larger population than
 that of Wyoming and almost three umes
 that of Nevada By the time or the next census Delaware may be left behlho by her far Western sister.
 Aside from the practical considerations
 of population and unquestioned wealth. Arizona may urge a sentimental reason for the favor she seeks The same year.
 1903, which will mark the centennal or the Louisiana Purchase. will bring the
 semi of the Gadsden Purchase' through which was settled the southern boundary line of both Arizona ana the republic. lt would be at least poetic Jus tice if Statehood were to give goloen | jubilee turn to the end of the htty years | From this point even the stronSlN he- | publican Congress may look wlth Iet'le'i' | eyes upon the rather persistent DeHoc- raCy of this aspiring Territory.
