ished the resisting power OF the organs
There is not particle of
alcohol or narcotic in any OF Doctor
Pierce's medicines, and this fact he
will substantiate by the most exacting
analysis. If you are suffering and sick,
write to-day to DR., Pierce and tell him
your troubles. You can tell him freely
all you feel, as all letters are regarded
as sacredly confidential and are never
printed without the full written consent
of the patient. Do not be persuaded
to write to a woman because you are
told " A woman best understands a
woman's ills" DIR. Pierce is a man
whose broad sympathies and keen in
telligence have won him the confidence
of thousands of patients, and his ex-
perience of over a third of a century
puts him in position to appreciate your
sufferings, consider your symptoms and
advise you as to the most successful
form OF treatment to use for your own
case. If yours is a case that will be
benefited by his proprietary medicines,
he says so frankly; but as frankly tells
you what to do in case yours is one re-
quiring special attention and treatment.
Many women have blessed the day
when they wrote to DIR. Pierce for advice.
The correctness of his advice is
amply proven by the experience OF
many thousands of women-a large
number of whom have written of their
experiences. So sure of it is the
World Dispensary Medical Associa-
ton, the proprietors of DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription, that they offer
$500 reward for women who cannot be
cured of Leucorrhea, Female Weak
ness, Prolapsus or Falling OF Womb.
All they ask is a fair and reason
able trial of their means OF cure.
Their financial responsibility is well
known to every newspaper publisher
and druggist in the United States.
This wonderful remedy therefore stands
absolutely alone as the only one pos
sessed of such remarkable curative
properties as would warrant its makers
in publishing such marvellous offer as
Is above made in the utmost good faith.
1t is q medicine which has stood the
test of a third of century and num-
bers its cures by the thousands. 1t is
perfectly safe tonic in any condition Of
the system, being entirely vegetable and
without alcohol.
DIR. Pierce's Favorite Prescription
gives new life and new strength to
weak, worn-out, rundown women. 1t
establishes regularity, dries unhealthy
drains, heals inflammation and ulcera-
ton and cures female weakness. 1t
makes weak women strong and sick
women well.
In the Common Sense Medical
Adviser" book of zoos pages, com
piled by DR.. Pierce, from his life work
among suffering people, you will find
valuable information concerning the
organs and functions of the body, pre-,
vention of sickness, simple home cures,
as we'll as a careful honest discussion
of the great problem of marriage and
maternity. In order that the benefits
of his medicines may be as widespread
as possible, DR.. Pierce sends this great
book free to all who ask. Send thirty
one cents to cover cost of mailing the
cloth-covered volume.

A PRESIDING ELDER
UNDER CHARGES,

Rome, Ca, June 16.-Presiding Elder
w. R. Foote of the Rome District
Methodist Church, has been in the
hands of an Investigating committee,
appointed by Bishop w. w. Duncan
for the past two days upon charge
of improper conduct on the streets of
Rome on April /.
The committee appointed by the
Bishop are Rev. B. P. Allen, chair
man; Rev. w. F. Quillian, Rev. T.
j. Christian and Rev. NJ. L. Under
wood. The meetings have been held
behind closed doors and in secret, but
from a source of absolute authority
it may be stated that the evidence
was rather meagre and conflicting.
The story was an old one on the
streets of Rome. However the minis
tiers thought that the matter should
be sent up to conference for thorough
investigation and final statement and
it was so ordered. North Georgia Con-
ference meets in Marietta on Nov.
90.
No one scarcely in Rome has ever
looked upon this story otherwise than
as the most irresponsible of street gos-
sip. and there are those who charge
that the matter would long ago have
died but for busybodies and enemies
of Mr.. Foote. The general opinion
here is that Mr.. Foote will be trump
hantly and thoroughly vindicted and
that at the worst the story arose from
a misunderstanding and misapprehen-
sion.

the change 1t has made IN me but none
can appreciate it as l can myself"
There is no characteristic so much
appreciated in women as the ability to
make every one around feel at ease and
free from self-consciousness. But no
woman, try as she may can succeed in
making others happy if she is racked
with pain or tormented with aggravat-
ing distresses. A contented mind can
find no place in a diseased body.
Nothing will bring on old age and ex-
hausted vitality quicker than disease
and weakness of the female organs.
Many a woman has suffered for years
and been treated unsuccessfully for
headache, stomach trouble and other
weakness because the treatment was
not directed toward the source of the
trouble and the cause removed. DR..
r. V. Pierce in the course of a long
experience in the treatment of woman s
ills found that preparation of roots
and banks which he named Doctor
Pierce's Favorite Prescription was a
specific for the treatment of female
suffering. BY relieving the pelvic con-
gestion, giving tone to the organs and
stopping weakening drains, Nature was
given a chance to repair damages and
restore the body to healthy condition
again. The use of the alcoholic prep
arations found so abundantly on the
market, was. always deprecated by DR..
Pierce, who found that alcohol merely
impaired a temporary stimulation,
while it dried up the blood and dimin-

other Matters Before the Republican
National Committee.
Chicago, June 16.-After deciding
several state contests on delegates at
large to the Republican National Con-
vention and a number of district dis
putes. the National Committee tonight
adjourned until tomorrow morning
leaving the biggest fight, that of the
factions in Wisconsin. still unsettled.
In the Delaware contest, the commit
tee this afternoon decided unanimously
to seat the Delaware delegation, which
is headed by j. e. Addicks. 1t was
decided also to seat the colored dele
gates at large from Louisiana.
Some surprise was occasioned when,
bv a vote of 20 to Is, the committee
decided to seat the delegates at large
from Louisiana who are opposed to the
Lilly White" element. Not only did
the contending party, the Cohen fac
ton, win in the matter OF delegates
at large, but their representatives were
victorious in practically all the dis
trict contests of that state. The Lilly
White" faction expected that the con-
test would be decided in their favor,
and the eolored delegates had practi-
cally given up hope of being success
full before the committee.
