That he Is fully capable Of looking after his

Special to The Journal. =
Sioux City, Iowa. March 27.-Denouncing the
missionary board of the Congregational church
for refusing the gift Of 100000 offered by
John D. Rockefeller for missionary purposes,
Rev. DR.. J.. W. Frizzell, pastor of the First
Congrega tional church here. asserted that If the
devil himself offered him 800, 900 he would take
it and be glad to get 1t. So:
s.Such folly as this will set bad precedent"
said Dr.. Frizzell. whenever a man like Rookie
Teller opens his heart to a charitable inclinat ton
he ought to be allowed to carry out his purlN)se
without opposition from anyone. This growing
sentiment that there should be closer scrutiny
as to the origin and motives Of gifts is all a
farce.
.'Do YOU think all the members of the church
who contribute to the collection boxes every
Sunday get their money according to the econo-
my Of the Bible?.
.'What difference would it make If the devil
himself should come along, hang purse on one
of his horns and I should take it off and use it
for missionary work? I wish some such thing
would happen to me. I certainly would accept
the purse and feel computations Of con-
science, either.
What difference does it make where the
money used In missionary work comes from? The
money made by the devil would do just as much
good and convert just many heather If it
were acquired according to the golden rule"

An important matter that will soon occupy the
attention of the city council will be the construc-
ton of a new bridge across the st. Croix between
this city and HoultOn Wis. Many residents
favor filling in part Of the lake and constructing
a drawbridge, while others are of opinion that
high bridge is the only structure that should
be built. There has been less talk
that the Minneapolis, st. Paul & Suburban Rail-
way company will eventually extend it's lines
from this city to Hudson River Falls. Ellsworth,
Baldwin and New Richmond. and in the event
that these reports have foundation the COM
pany will cooperate with the city in building
the bridge, which is necessity. inasmuch as the
old wooden structure has practically outlived its
usefulness.
The ice has almost disappeared from the East
Side Lumber company's millpond. and it will be
possible for toe company to start its mill in
few days. If present weather conditions continue

No matter whether it is from a recent

No matter whether it is from recent
cold, a chronic cough, bronchitis or
incipient consumption-all are cured
by the use of DR.. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery, It has soothing effect
upon the mucous membrane, and at
the same time it promotes digestion and
the assimilation of food. 1t accom-
plishes this by reason of the manner
of combination of the ingredients of
this remedy, made from medicinal
plants grown in this country, the one
remedy which many years Of expert
ence proves is entirely free from detri-
mental effects. A blue-ribbon remedy,
because made without alcohol or harm
full drugs. 1t is made in a large labor
atory, thoroughly equipped with every
scientific appliance, at Buffalo, N. Y.
Qualified chemists are in charge of the
laboratory, with nearly a score of
skilled physicians and surgeons en-
ployed to scrutinize, determine and
prescribe these remedies and other
means of cures as seem best suited to
many thousands of cases of chronic
diseases which come before them for
treatment each year. 1t costs you
nothing to write to Doctor Pierce
the head of this Institution and get
an accurate medical opinion in your
special case and wholly without charge.
This preparation is of pleasant taste,
agrees perfectly with rebellious and
sensitive stomachs, and is extremely
effective in restoring tone and vigor to
the entire system. It cures gastric
troubles of the stomach and at the
same time the blood-vessels are given
stimulation which throws off q cold.
One very good reason why it restores
the health Of run down, pale and
emaciated people is because it first
throws out the poisons from the liver
and kidneys. It then begins its recon-
structive work in building up flesh and
making good, rich, red blood.

above all, woman who has had
more experience in treating female ills
than any living person.
Over one hundred thousand cases of
female diseases come before Mrs. Pink
ham every year, some personally,
Others by mail, and this has been 60
fng on for twenty years, day after day.
Surely women are wise in seeking
advice from a woman of such expert
ence, especially when it is absolutely
free.
Mrs. Pinkham never violates the con-
adence of women, and every testimo-
NAL letter published is done so with
the written consent or request of the
writer, in order that other sick women
may be benefited as they have been.
Mrs. Fred Seydel, of 412 North 54th
Street, West Philadelphia, Pa, writes
Dear Mrs. Pinkham:-
cover year ago wrote you letter asking
advice, as had female ills and could not
carry child to maturity. received your
kind letter Of instructions and followed your
advice. am not only well woman in con-
sequence, but have beautiful baby girl. I
wish every suffering woman in the land would
write you for advice, as you have done so
much for me-"
just as surely as MRS. tSeyoe1 was
cured, will Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound cure every
woman suffering from any form of
female ills.
No other medicine in all the world
has such record of cures of female
troubles as has Lydia E. Pinkhams
Vegetable Compound. Therefore NO
prudent woman will accept any substi-
tute which druggist may offer.
If you are sick, write Mrs. Pinkham,
Lynn, Mass, for special advice. It is
free and always helpful.
