rs ABSOLUTELY PURE
NATURES OWN REsToRATIvEs
IN FAvORITE PRESCRIPTION.
Or. Pierce Announces tho ingredients
Of the Family Medicines Which
Have Made His Name a Household
Word in the World.

With all the recent talk about patent
medicines and the determined effort in
certain quarters to cast discredit upon
all household remedies which come un-
der that head, the fact remains that
some of these medicines are so firmly
established in popular favor and con-
fidence, have SO proved their worth
and value, that all the denunciations
of bigots cannot destroy the peoples
faith in them.
One of the best known OF these rem
edies is DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
tion, medicine which for years has
been accepted by the people as stan
dard preparation for the cure of those
ailments to which women alone are
subject and which has proved to be a
certain cure in nine cases out OF ten
and a sure relief in the other one.
There is nothing to conceal about
the Favorite Prescription. 1t is an abb
solutely pure medicine-made of roots
and herbs, Natures own restoratives.
DR.. Pierce is perfectly willing to let
every one know that his Favorite Pre-
scription contains Blue Cohosh (Caulo-
phyllum Thalictroides), Black Cohosh
(Cimicifuga Racemosa), Lady's Slip
per (Cypripedium Pubescens) and
Golden Seal (Hydrastis Canadensis).
Every doctor knows that such a pre-
scription is beneficial in the diseases
of women and when properly COM
pounded is certain to effect cure in
practically all cases when given fair
trial. Hereafter every bottle of the
To 70 fnff vvi1 r,1o ir,1x fol
of what the medicine is composed.
Thus Dr. Pierce will once more prove
to the world his own confidence in the
remedy which for forty years has
borne his name and which is known all
over the world as a sovereign cure for
those diseases which, unchecked, make
our women old before their time
There is no alcohol in the Favorite
Prescription. DR.. Pierce never be-
lieved in using alcohol in the prepara-
ton of his famous household remedies.
For it he substituted chemically pure
glycerine. which has wonderful prop
critics for extracting the medicinal
principles of roots and herbs and barks
and preserving them at their full
strength, without any deleterious ef-
feet whatever.
Your druggist sells the FavorIro
Prescription and also that famous
Alternative and blood purifier the Gold
en- Medical Discovery. Write to DR..
Pierce about your case. He is a we'll
qualified physician and will .rea. your
case as confidential and without
charge for correspondence. Address
him at the Invalids' Hotel and Surgical
Institute, Buffalo, N. Y, of which he Is
Chief Consulting Surgeon.

Matter Comes Up Eefore the Men
Making the quiry Into In

NOTHING BAD IN "aYNDICATES"
So Says One Witness, Who Holds That
Money Made That Way Is
Not Tainted.

New York, Sept. S.-The affairs Of
the Equitable Life Assurance society
and the Mutual Life Insurance COM
pany held the attention of the legis-
lative life insurance investigating COM
fllittee in session in this city. Moth
ing particularly new was developed in
regard to the Equitable society, other
than the statement drawn from one
of the officers that the society does not
know the present whereabouts of
Thomas u. Jordan, the eX-comptrol-
Ter. 1t was stated that Jordan was
wanted as a witness to explain the
loan of $6S5,COO made to the Equitable
society by the Mercantile Trust COM
pany. 1t was also stated that James
II. Hyde. eX-filst vice-president Of the
Equitable, later will be called as "a
witness before tie committee.
Controls Many Trust Companies.
The inquiry into the Mutual Life In
Surance company was begun. The tes-
timOny drawn from an officer Of this
company showed that the Mutual con-
trolls many trust companies, among
them the Morton Trust company, the
Guarantee Trust company and the
United States Mortgage and Trust
company. On deposit with these COM
panies the insurance company keeps
hundreds of thousands of dollars
against which it does not draw. It
was explained that the prosperity Of
the trust companies meant the pros
perity Of the insurance company. The
insurance deposits draw per cent in
terest, and the trust companies pay as
high as 20 per cent dividends ON the
par value. Of the stock, of 5 per cent on
the market value.
Some Equitable Life Documents Read.
Lawyer Chas. E.. Hughes read from
the charter Of the Equitable society
extracts showing that holders Of pol
icies having face value Of not less
than 5000 have one vote for direc-
tors personally, but not by proxy, and
tht each policy-hOlder Is to have a
share sof the surplus OF the society,
the directors to, decide what the
share shall be. He, also read the bill
Of salesof the Hyde stock in the Equit-
able to Thomas F. Ryan for $500, 900.
1t was shown that legal safeguards
were taken to assure the delivery Of
the stock June 6, 1906, at the expira-
ton Of the trust created by Henry B.
Hyde, one thing noted being that
James III. Hyde made will directing
that the transfer of the stock be made
by his executors If he should die be-
fore the expiration of the trust.
