We are pleased to report in this issue
that BLOOD Wine," the new medicihe

manufacturers to place on sale mere, mas
jumped into instant favor and large
number of our citizens have awaited
themselves of the opportunity to test ;.
free OF charge, and several are now taxing
it daily and already feeling the enects OF
its health-giving properties,
The market is today flooded with pro-
prietary articles of all kinds. Some are
good, some are bad, some harmless. whilc
others possess little or no medicinal prop
erty. The sale of "BloOd Wine" has
been developed purely on its merits, TOT
the manufacturers have always heid
aloof from advertising, believing that to
thus present it might prejudice the minds
of some, as there are people who think
that any advertised medicine is "quack
nOStrum."
''Blood Wine" is scientific prepara-
ton; in fact, one of the most potent or
recent discoveries in materia medlca.
If you should summons physician, re-
ceive his advice, accept his prescription,
have it filed and conduct yourself &C
cOrding to his instruction, you must DC
at an expense of from say $3.50 to $500 or

less for anyone to make such claim of
any medicine, and no honest proprietor
speaking to the intelligent masses will do
it. "BlOod Wine" will not disappoint
you. 1t has worked wonders in thou
sands and hundreds of thousands of cases
in the cities. 1t will cure in a great
many instances where other remedies
and doctors fail. twill prevent coughs,
colds, grippe, pneumonia, consumption,
Bright's disease, rheumatism, indiges-
ton, constipation, nervous disorders and
infections of the blood, and it will bring
about a permanent cure of any Of these
diseases excepting when consumption or
Bright's disease is in the most advanced
stage. If your lungs are beginning to be
affected, if you have poor appetite,
are sleepless nights, are losing flesh, or
notice slight cough, are nervous and
fidgety. "BlOod Wine'' will cure you.

about this celebrated preparation; see if
it suits your case, sample it, read the
literature and make a thorough investi-
cation. If satisfied invest fifty cents for

ton. ''Blood Wine' contains no wine OF
opiates. You will not be humbugged, you

Some have misunderstood the item
which appeared in the Journal for
Saturday morning in relation to the or
der before the city government pro-
viding for a salary for the board Of
health, thinking that it referred to the
members of the city government The
order introduced, If passed, would give
the members of that board $50 per year
for their services and it went through
the different stages Of municipal legis-
lation mentioned in the Journal. but
had no reference to the aldermen and
councilmen themselves. The city
charter makes it illegal for these rep-
resentatives of the people to draw
salary for their services.

One would never suspect from his ap-
pearance that Mr.. Ross is nearly a
years of age. He is wonderfully active
and rarely misses a day from his office.
Mr.. Ross is a Mason and member of
the First Presbyterian church. He was
sufferer from dyspepsia until he heard
of Kodol Dyspepsia Cure. The follow
ing is his opinion of the remedy which
has done so much for him:
For several years, I, Thomas l.. Ross,
also my wife, Lydia L. Ross, both of
Topeka, Kas., suffered with that terrible
malady known as dyspepsia or indiges-
ton.
1--WE commenced to use Kodol Dyspep-
sia Cure on the recommendation of our
druggist. After taking one dose, and in
side of short time, all of those terrible
pains and dyspepsia torrents had
passed away. My appetite, also my
wife's, came back and our food could be
enjoyed as when we We're 81. I am now
turning n years of age.
81 have not suffered one day with my
stomach since commenced to use Kodol
Dyspepsia Cure, and I recommend it to
all of my fellow citizens to do YOU good,
and endorse Kcdol Dyspepsia Cure"

Anti Beef Trust Association.

New York, May 2O.-Five hundred
east side Hebrew men and women met
yesterday and formed 1.-The Ladies'
Anti -Beef Trust Association" They
selected Mrs. Carlyn Schatzberb as
president, and she appointed Mrs.
Pauline Frickel treasurer. Out of COM
pliment to the Garment Workers
Union, which had sent dele<sates to the
meeting, a young man named Blumen-
thai was made vice president and ia
cob Kirschberg secretary. commit
tee of seven women was appointed and
the members We're instructed to visit all
the tenement houses on the east side to
persuade the Hebrew women not to buy
meat until the price was reduced to the
point of a year ago-that is, 10 and -
cents per pound. They We're not to
create any disturbances, but when they
saw Hebrew women coming out of a
butcher shop with meat they We're in
structed to argue with them. If they
were unwilling to throw the meat away,
but willing to join the organization, the
committee women We're to buy it from
them and throw it into the street. To-
gether with this committee another OF
nine men was appointed as an auxiliary
to the women. After the work of plac-
ing the boycott thruout the east side is
completed the committee will continue
its missionary work in other parts of
the city, visiting the labor and benevo-
lent societies, Jewish and otherwise, la
Dor union meetings and lodges.

RURAL DELIVERY BOXES.
Effort to Secure Satisfactory Bids
Probably Unsuccessful.


Washington, May 20.-Bids will be
opened at the postoffiee department to-
day for the construction of letter boxes
to be used in the rural free delivery
service Indications now are that no
contract will be made upon the bids.
The postoffice appropriation bill con-
tanned a provision calling for bids for
the manufacture of q box, on a model
furnished by the postoffice department,
which could be furnished to patrons at
q price not exceeding so cents. None
of the big concerns of the country have
yet presented bids, and 1t Is not eX-
pected that they will. Some of them
have written letters stating that they
can not enter into the competition at
such figures. 1t is expected that the
bids will all be rejected and that the
department will then adopt its own
rIan for solving the rural free delivery
box question. This provides for the
establishment of specific attentions for
a rural free delivery box upon which
all manufacturing concerns may bid.
This will leave the matter open to
makers of boxes thruout the country,
and the patrons can purchase where
they please. 1t is thought by this sys-
tom that a uniform box may be sup
plied at ST or less.
