NATURES ESSENCE
Extracted from the Roots of Native, Forest Plants Go Straight Back to Nature for Your Health
 There is Your Strength.

1 extract is like Natures influence = the l blood is bathed in the invigorating
 tonic which gives life to 1t and the vital
 fires of the body burn brighter and their increased activity consumes the tissue rubbish which has accumulated in the system.
 The Discovery cures all skin affec- tions, blotches, pimples, eruptions and boils heals old sores, or ulcers, "white swellings,1 scrofulous affections and kindred ailments.
 The uGolden Medical Discovery is just the tissue builder and tonic you require when recovering from hard cold, grip, pneumonia or long siege of fever or other prostrating disease. No matter how strong the constitution, our stomach and liver are apt t0 be wout of kilterD occasionally. In con- sequence our blood is disordered, for the stomach is the laboratory for the constant manufacture of blood.
 It is a trite saying that no man is stronger than his stomach. Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery strengthens the stomach--puts 1t in shape to make pure, rich blood-helps the liver and kidneys to expel the poisons from the body and thus cures both liver and kidney troubles. If you take this natural blood purifier and tonic, you will assist your system in manufactur- ing each day . pint of rich, red blood, that is invigorating to the brain and nerves. The weak, nervous, rundown, debilitated condition which 70 many people suffer from, is usually the effect of poisons in the blood; it is often in- dicated by pimplee or boils appearing on the skin, the face becomes thin and the feelings vblue." Dr. Pierce's Dis coveryr cuyss all blood humors as we'll as being . tonic that makes one vigor- ous, strong and forceful. It is the only medicine put up for sale through drug gists for like purposes that contains neither alcohol nor harmful drugs, and the only one, every ingredient of which has the professional endorsement of the leading medical writers of this country. Some of thess endorsements are published in little book of ex- tracts from standard medical works and will be sent to any address free, on receipt of request therefor by letter or postal card, addressed to Dr. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, N. Y. It tells just what Dr. Pierce's medicines arc made of.
 The vWords of Praise for the sev- eral ingredients of which Dr. Piercs's medicines arc composed, by leaders in all the several schools of medical prac- tice, and recommending them for the cure of the diseases for which the uGolden Medical Discovery is ads-sed, should have far moro weight wit. the sick and afflicted than any amount of the so-called vtestimonials % con- spicuously Haunted before the public by those who are afraid to let the in- gredients of which their medicines are composed be known. Bear in mind that the cGolden Medical Discovery has THE BADGE or HONESTY on every bottle wrapper, in . full lit of its in- gredients.
 Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cure constipation, invigorate the liver and regulate stomach and bowels.

We do not live on what we eat but on what we digest, assimiiate, and take up in the blood. The blood in turn feeds the nerves, the heart, and the whole system, and all goes well with us if the blood be kept pure and rich. It not. then the liver, which is the human filter within us, gets clogged up and poisons :accumulate in the body from over-eating, over-drinking, or hurriedly doing both. The smash -up occurs when the blood is poisoned by the stomach and liver being unable to take care of the 0per- -loadl The red flag of danger is thrown out in tho shape of eruptions on the skin, or in nervous ness and sleeplessness, the sufferer be- coming blue, Respondent and irritable, because the nerves lack nourishment and are st0rved.

CONSISTENT INDEPENDENCE.

The Kansas City Star again shows it's independence as news paper by coming squarely to the front in support of ex-Senator Harris for the office Of governor of Kansas. It is generally known
 that that paper is an ardent sup
 porter of President Roosevelt and his Republican administra- tion, also that it was just as ardent a supporter of Governor Folks Democratic administration in Missouri, and now is support ing the nominee of the Democrat ic party of Kansas for the office of governor, presenting as some of its reasons therefor the follow ing:
 "The temper of the whole na- ton at this time is sensitive to the appeal that such men as MT. Harris makes to the public. The spirit of Kansas is especially re sponsive to great leadership. This was demonstrated in the ex.
 traordinary vote given to Presi- dent Roosevelt in 1904. MT.
 Roosevelt's plurality of l2b, 900
 was not Republican plurality,
 strictly speaking; it was Roose-
 welt plurality in the main.
 "Because he has been iusistent for the square deal and has stood for the best that there is in Kan- sas, Former Senator William A.
 Harris could not escape the chief
 honor of his party. Distincton
 forced itself upon him in spite of his honest efforts to avoid it. The situation in Kansas could
 hardly be more impressive as an illustration that i. pays in politics as in every other field of eudeavor to be sincere and straightforward. The incident of the Kansas Demo- cratic convention was a fine
 recognition that popular strength is coming to depend more and more on individual merit and right ideals"
 The Kansas City Stars strong est hold on the people is it's per sistaut advocacy of the square deal, as promulgated by MT. Roosevelt and of the enforcement of law as cxempli6ed by Governor Folk, and it now declares that
 "following the nomination of MT. William A. Harris for governor, the best and strongest card the Democrats of Kansas can play is to make their campaign primarily on the issue of law enforcement.
 Such a campaign as the Demo- crats of Missouri made for Folk
 would almost certainly eject Mir.
 Harris. The sentiment of the time, throughout the country, is tor the enforcement of the laws and the repeal of such acts as the m aioritv does not want"

precaution

IT would be an interesting expert
ment to turn the city over to the
grafters and let them work all the
gratis for couple of yes just to
see how much they coutd make, but
it would be a mighty expensive thing
for the taxpayers and they are hardly
in a position to afford anything Of the
kind just at this time. With ali the
improvements that will have to be
made in the next few years to keep
up with the rapid growth Of the city,
the taxes will be plenty high enough
if we get full value for every dollar
expended. If the taxpayers let things
slide this spring they will pay high
for their neglect and every taxpayer
will only be protecting his own pocket
when he "takes an interest in
politics" at the coming election.

THERE has been some complaint OF

for the city if they were more general

which the burners consume blowing

streets are dirty enough as it is, but
they would be whole lot worse if the
garbage burners were not in use.
