ailing women are invited to consult DR..
Pierce, by letter, free. All correspond
ence is strictly private and the written
condolences OF women are treated with
the same privacy observed by DR.. Pierce

tute, Buffalo, n. Y. Address DR.. R. V.
Pierce, Buffalo, n. Y.
Because DR.. Pierce's effer is free it is
not be classed with those offers of "ffec
medical adDfcc" made by men or women
who have neither the legal nor the pro-
fessional right to practice medicine. If
they dare! to put out their signs with
the title Doctor upon them, the law would
instantly deal with them. They don't
dare to do this, and yet, though without
medical training, medical knowledge or
medical experience, they cunningly offer
vfree medical advice" The law can't
touch that claim because anyone can
give free advice OH any subject, but a
woman knows that the advice of her
laundress is perfectly worthless as to
the cutting and fitting of her gown.
In consulting with DR.. Pierce, women
not only consult with a real doctor, but
one who is a specialist in the treatment
and cure of diseases peculiar to women,
and who, assisted by his staff of nearly a
score of physicians, has in a little more
than thirty years treated and cured hum
dreds of thousands of women.

suffering may be gathered from Mrs.
Nelson's experience told in the letter
given below. She says, VI 1as SO aery-
ons Mat the least thing zaonlG saa,ffe me
almost into ~eonyaislons." Such a con-
dition of generally indicates
womanly diseases. It is useless to at
tempt to cure by the use OF
narcotics.
NARCOTICS ARE DEADLY
for the nervous woman whose need IS
not to make the nerves sleep but to
make them strong, not to numb them
but to nourieh them. The best nedi-
cine for nervous women is DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription. 1t cures nervous
ress because it cures the causes which
are behind 1t establishes
regularity, dries the drains which under
mine the health and strength, heals
Inflammation and liberation and cures
female weakness. It makes weak women
strong and sick women we'll.
oDr. Pierce's medicines are the best I
have ever used,n writes Mrs. c. Nelson,
of Chernawa, Marion Co, Oregon. My
health was badly run down when 1 con-
suited him by letter. My limbs were
cold and my head hurt me continually.
l was so nervous that the least thing
would startle me almost into convul-

bad that I could scarcely walk oin
times. I felt utterly discouraged, but
W. bottles of DIR. Pierce's Favorite Pre-

Nothing is claimed for DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription but is claimed for
it by the wonen who have been cured
by its use. Behind every claim is a
eure-yes, a thousand cures. In fact.

MARTINS FERRY MEMBERS

| OF the Board of Trade Met Last Night.
Impression That They Have Not
| Been Fairly Treated.
The Martins Ferry members OF the
| Wheeling Board of Trade held a
| meeting hast evening in the Hervey-
| Shrebe building at Martins Ferry.
The object was to receive the report
OF the committee that had made appIi-
cation for membership to the Wheel
ing Board. T. w. Shreve made the re-
port, and stated that they made an ap-
plication Internationally, and that
after the meeting of the beard they
were called In, and MIR. Sands stated
to them that after consideration they
could not give Martins Ferry q place
on the Board of Directors. Secretary
Thompson said that there was q way
of getting around the constitution to
give Martins Ferry a place.
r. r. Kerr, a member of the COM
mittee, stated that w. P. Hubbard had
asked to resign so that a Martins
Ferry member could be represented
on the board. 1t was said that Mr..
Hubbard asked for the laws to be
amended, and that he did not think his
services as valuable as a member from
Martins Ferry. 1t was also stated
that the Wheeling Board failed to act
on Mr.. Hubbard's resignation.
Mr. E. j. A. Drennen moved that the
report OF the committee be accepted
and the committee continued. The
Notion was adopted unanimously.
L. j. A. Drennen offered the follow
ing resolutions, by request of President
John :. Cochran:
Resolved. That the committee hereto
fore appointed be instructed to visit the
Board OF Trade of Wheeling, and respect
fully request a Withdrawal of the list of
applications for membership presented to
that body from Martins Ferry by said
committee, and report their proceedings
after to be called"
This resolution brought forth a dis
cussion which lasted for over an hour.
Mr.. Drennen opposed the resolution,
and thought they should not be too
hasty, although he was sorry that the
committee had received such treat
ment. Il. E. MeCombs said Martins
Ferry had done all that had been
asked, and that they became members,
asking nothing, but that the Wheeling
people voluntarily offered them places.
DR.. J. W. Darrah asked the COM
mittee to give dts impression of the
meeting.
James A. Dickson thought they had
acted hastily, but could see no way out
of it, and advised them to go slow.
BIring Mr.. Drennen's defense of the
Wheeling board he was asked many
questions. all going to show a senti-
ment that the over-the-river peo-
pie had acted in bad faith. Mr..
Drennen said he thought the men
We're honorable, and if they proved
not, they could have his ten dol
lars, but he thought this city would
be represented. After more discus
sion, a vote was taken, and the amend
ment was defeated and a motion was
adopted to defer action until the
Wheeling board held a regular meet
ign.
About twenty-five attended the meet
ins, and almost all voiced their senti-
ments.

a Timely Discovery.

Roundsman Humes made a timely
discovery shortly after midnight this
morning, which probably averted a
serious fire. While passing McFadden's
shoe store, his attention was attracted
by the noise caused by escaping gas,

break with considerable dificulty.

We held on for Fraserburgh. where we
