Making Money In Prison.

\ remarkable example of cunning
has been unearthed in one of our
large prisons. y convict had perfect
ed die. and was making silver dol
lars, and distributing them through
accomplices on the outside. Natur-
ally the officials were very much sur
priscd at the discovery, but no more
so than the person who receives a
counterfeit article in place of the
genuine. 1t is therefore very impor-
tant when you ask for Hostetter's
Stomach Bittcrs to see that their pri-
waite stamp over the neck is unbrok-
en-, if you value your health. For so
years the Bitters has been recognized
as the best health maker in existence.

gcstion, dyspepsia. constipation, flat

you have never tried il. Try it at

is unceasing. DeWitt's Witch Hazel
Salve cures piles at once. For skin

kinds of wounds, it is unequalled. j.

Prescription a wonderful tonic, impart-

In health and strength and makes the

CLAIMS VS.. CURES.
It is very much easier to make claims
than to make cures It is by its cures
"Favorite Prescription " is to be Judged
and by the multiplied testimonies to
these cures given by the grateful women
who have been restored to perfect health
and strength through the use of this
great medicine
About five years ago had very poor
health" writes Mrs. S. E Whalen, of
Holden, Johnson Co., Mo. cAfter doc
toring four years with our town doctors
they gave my case up; said they had
done all they could I had been con-
fined to my bed half nv time the other
half could hardly drag around 1 had
such pains in my back and abdomen I
could not stand on my feet for more
than few minutes. My feet were cold
or burning, and my periods came too
often. The doctors said it was change
of life, so, as l had heard of Dr. Pierce's
medicines, my husband got ME bottle
OF FavOrite Prescription I took it
aud it helped me in some ways, so 1
wrote to you and followed your advice
l commenced Favorite Prescription
Golden Medical Discovery and the
Pleasant Pellets as l was so consti-
pated all the time and pills would
weaken me so that l would have to go
to bed. To the great surprise of every
body 1 got we'll, and when 1 met my
friends they would say 1 never thought
you would be here now But can say
it was your medicine, which no doubt is
the best in the world. Have no use for
doctors since tried your medicine"
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is
purely vegetable preparation and can
not disagree with the weakest constitu-
ton. 1t contains no alcohol and is abso-
lutely free from opium, cocaine, and all
other narcotics.
Accept no substitute for "Favorite Pre-
scription " if you wish to be cured as
others have been. Insist upon the remedy
with a record for the cure of weak and
sick women.
Women suffering from disease in
