II take pleasure in writing you to let
you know about your FavOrite Prescrip-
ton" says Mr.. Z. E. Fricke, of Peters
burg, Menard Co., Ills, Box 367. "My
wife had been sick nearly AL her life,
and after trying everything could think
of ! made up my mind to try FavOrite
Prescription l sent to Chicago and got
six bottles, which my wife took, table
spoonful three times a day, until the
baby came. She felt better after taking
the first bottle, and when baby was born
he weighed nine and half pounds.
To-day he is six months old and weighs
twenty-five pounds. He is as good a
child as any one could wish. The doctor
says he is as healthy as any baby could
be, and also the doctor says your Favor
lite Prescription was the cause of such
healthy baby. 1 felt owed you, this
much for the good you did my wife and
for my own happiness"
HIS oBETTER HALF"
The reference to the wife as the
Ubetter half" is made sometimes half
humorously. But in his heart every
man feels that the old phrase expresses
a fact. When the wife is sick the whole
fabric of home totters to its fall. When
the wife is confined to her bed the lus
band leads a half life, life from which
the sunshine and laughter have been
taken away. It is not to be wondered
at therefore. that husbands express their
gratitude for the cures which follow the
use of DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription.
What a change from sicllly bed-ridden
wife, helpless and miserable, to wife
who is once more able to "guide the
house" in health and happiness.

This offer of free consultation by letter
is not to be classed with the spurious
offers of "free medical advice" made by
those who having neither professional
training nor experience are medically
and legally unqualified to give the adj
vice they offer. Although it takes more
than a diploma to make good physi-
clan yet the medical diploma is essen
tial. as witnessing to professional study
and training. 1t is we'll for women to
examine into offers of vfree medical
advice" and to ascertain whether the
offer is made by those competent pro-
fessionally and legally to give medical
advice. Any one can offer medical
advice" but such advice from one who
is not medically educated and qualified
is not only worthless but dangerous.
In little over thirty years DIR. Pierce,
chief consulting physician to the Inva-

The effort of some dealers to sell

Never docs a man feel so helpless as
when he looks upon the suffering of the
wife he loves and knows that he is
powerless to prevent it. And when, as
is often the case, he has exhausted every
means at his disposal in the vain effort
to restore his wife to health, his despair
almost equals her suffering. There are
husbands who have passed throEgh this
experience and have found a way to be

The new Zurich Zeitung said of
Florizel Reuter-, who appears in
violin recital at the Burtis this even
ing: such a pleasant surprise is
seldom given an audience as that of
Friday evening in the Tonhallesaal.
When little Florizel made child-like
bow to his audience and then began
to play, we considered best to close
our eyes. which contradicted the i'm
precision on our ears which listened
to an almost perfect violin artist.
Nature sometimes takes delight in
inverting her laws, and the result of
such a rare inversion stood before us
in young Florizel. The little fellow
manages the bow with astonishing
masterliness; he does not only make
an impression by his sovereign at
tainments in technique, but also
through the intellectual maturity of
his playing; through his tender. sing
ing, tones. which have nothing what
ever childish-and, in fact. ring with
manly earnestness. Florizel succeed
