One of the most common statements

One Of the most common statements
made in the letters grateful women
write to DR.. Pierce, of Buffalo, N. ",
Is this: al owe my life to DR.. Pierce"
These women have found themselves in
great danger. They have appealed
without avail to local physicians. They
have counseled in vain with women
advisers. The best that had been done
for them was Just to keep them afoat in
the sea of disease with strength visibly
failing, in the hope that the man who
had strength and skill to save them
might be found.
woMAN's APPEAL ANSWERED.
Hundreds of thousands of women
have appealed to DIR. Pierce, for relief
from womanly ills and not one has ap-
pealed in vain. The use of DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription supplemented by
the medical advice of DR.. Pierce has
been the means of cure to this vast army
of women suffering from diseases pecul-
lar to the sex.
III wish to tell you the benefit / re-
ceived from using your remedies"
writes Mrs. Alice Soncrant, of 26I W..
Harrison Street, Chicago, Ills. 1.-TWO
years ago was taken with severe pain
in the left ovary and side. Tried several
different remedies, but nothing helped
me. I got so bad could scarcely walk
across the floor or do work of any kind.
One day an old neighbor lady came In
to see me, and told me to try DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription. She
said she knew it would help me, as it
had saved her life. When the doctors
had given her up and said they could
do nothing for her she said she began to
take DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription
and It cured her. So got bottle of
the Favorite Prescription and one Of
Golden Medical Discovery and began
taking them. Before had taken one
bottle Of each was so much better I
could do all my Own work, and that is a
good deal, as ara the mother of four
small children. Three bottles of the
'Favorite Prescription and one OF
Golden Medical Discovery cured me.

A Man TO the Rescue !
The Woman in Peril Rarely Finds
Help From Her Own Sex.

Il Is In no wise to woman's discredit
that she is not professional life-saver.
We can only fancy her in the fireman's
helmet, in the crew of the life-boat, or
welding policeman's club, at the loss
of some of that fneness which is the
distinguishing quality of her sex. The
Molly Pitchers and Grace Darlings are
only examples of the sublime self-for.
getfhlness of women in great emer-
gencies.
It's much the same in other ways.
Women turn to the strength, skill and
Judgment of men in the crises of life.

While the large barn will give the
most room and conveniences for the
money invested, it is still an open
question whether throughout the north
west it Is good policy to build such
barns. The risk from fire, lightning
and cyclones is so great and the loss Of
such barns from these causes usually
so complete as to building and its con-
tents that we should hesitate long be-
fore building this sort Smaller build
ings, isolated from each other, would
seem to be the better and safer way to
provide barn accommodation for the
