THE YOUNG
PHYSICIAN
What His Experience
Proved.

In the early sixties it was usually the
duty of a practicing physician to ride
many miles every day on his regular
round of visits upon his patients. In
those days young man who had received
a splendid medical training in one of the
best medical colleges of that day was
accustomed to ride ten, twenty or thirty
miles or more visiting the sick and
afflicted His success was soon phenome-
nal. Doctors and families called him for
consultation to towns at considerable dis
tances by rail. One of his specialties was
the cure of those distressing diseases of
women. He had early discovered that
by combining the vegetable extract of
the following medicinal plants in just the
right proportion without the use of alco-
hol- his prescription invariably cured such
cases. Later, in order to place this rene
dy before the public in a shape easily to
be procured. he established a laboratory
at Buffalo, n. Y, where regularly qualified
chemists were put in charge to accurately
prepare his prescription and put it in
shape for shipment to all parts of the Uni
ted States. This remedy, which he named
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, " is not
a "patent medicine" in the common
acceptance of the term, but a tonic for
women, and regular physicians pre-
scription, and contains the following non
alcoholic ingredients: Golden Seal Roo
(Hydrastis Canodemsis), Ladys Shipper
(Cuprspediuns Pubescens), Black Cohos1
(Cinsicituga Racemosa), Unicorn Roo
(Chan1ae1irium Luteum), Blue Cohos1
(cauzophyzlum Thalictroides) scientifically
prepared by experienced chemists at the
laboratory of the Worlds Dispensary
Medical Association, Buffalo, n: Y:
DR.. Pierce does not claim for his FAY
orite Prescription that it is "cureall.

Marquette, Mich, May 24.-Laboring
under the hallucination that he was
being pursued by agents Of the czar,
Franz Saboto, a Russian army deserJer,
suddenly became insane while pas
senger on a west-bound train, and
leaped thru a car window and was
captured only after hard chase of
several hours.
He was brought to the Marquette
county Jail, but what disposition will
be made Of him is not certain. There
is a question whether he can be com
mitted to the state asylum, and the
fact that he was passed by the med
ical examiners at New York as sound
bodily and mentally makes it doubtful
whether he can be deported. He was
on his way to Superior, Wis, where he
has brother.

MAY TAX THEIR
REAL PROPERTY
Question Raised in the Supreme
Court Today on Taxation of
Telephone Companies.

May telephone companies be taxed
on their real estate in addition to the
gross earnings tax @of per cent now
supposed to cover all their taxes7
The question was raised today before
the supreme court. Arguments were
presented in a Ramsey county case.
The assessor listed building adjacent
to the Northwestern s exchange, claim
ing that it was not used for the COM
pany's, purposes, but was real estate
that should pay regular valuation
tax. The company claims that it uses
the building for storage purposes. At
the hearing today Justice Jaggard from
the bench raised the question whether
under the constitutional provision the
company should not pay taxes on all
it's real estate, whether used for it's
own purposes or not. He questioned
|whether the gross earnings tax was in
lieu Of taxes on more than the fran
chise and other personal property.
The gross earnings tax is paid direct
into the state treasury, and the cities
get none of it. The local tax paid by
telephone companies in Minneapolis
last year, it is said, was only $35, and
in st. Paul but $24. ~

1t is said, without relinquishing the
more important place on the rules com

who is out of consideration for chair

Speaker Cannon is very fond of Taw
