IN NATURES LABORATORY.

Buried deep in our American forests,
many years ago, DR.. Pierce found
beautiful, blooming plant the root OF
which possesses wonderfully efiicaclous
properties as a stomach and general
tonic, also as an Alternative or Dloou
purifier and liver invigorator, having an
especial affinity for all mucous surfaces
unOn which it exerts a most salutary,
soothing and healing influence.
This sturdy little plant is known to
botanists as Hydrastis Canadensis, but
has several local English names, being
generally known as Golden Seal. DIR.
Pierce found the root of this common
forest plant to possess medicinal prln-
ciples of great potency, especially when
combined, in just the right proportions,
with Queens root, Black Cherrybark,
Stone root, Mandrake root and Blood
root, the properties of each being eX-
tracted and preserved in chemically
pure glycerine of proper strength.
This compound DIR. Pierce named
his uGolden Medical Discovery" in
honor of the sturdy little Golden Seal
plant. So little used was the root of
this plant by the medical profession at
that time, that it could be purchased
in the open markets for from fifteen
cents to twenty cents a pound. The
use of many tons of this root every
year in DR.. Pierce's two leading medi-
cines-fOr it enters into both "GOlden
Medical Discovery" and also into DIR;
Pierce's Favorite Prescription as one of
their most important ingredients
caused the price of the root to advance
until to-day it commands upwards of
. dollar and half a pound.
ND prERCE'S FAITH
DIR. Pierce believes that in our native
forests are to be found an abundance of
most valuable medicinal plants for the
cure of many distressing and most
fatal maladies, if we would only seek
them out, test them and learn how
and for what diseases to use them.
Furthermore, he believes that the veg
etable kingdom is the one to resort to
for the most harmless remedial agents.
They act most kindly upon the hu-
man system and are eliminated or car
ried out of the body by the natural
functions without injury, even in cases
where it is necessary to make protracted
use of them in order to experience per-
manent cures. DIR. Pierce's medicines
being purely vegetable, are perfectly
harmless. In other words, while they
are potent to cure, being purely vege-
table in composition and containing no
alcohol, they leave no bad effects be-
hind. This is not generally true when
mineral medicines and those containing
large percentages of alcohol are taken
into the system and their use protracted
over considerable periods of time.
Many years ago, DR.. Pierce discov-
cred that chemically pure glycerine, OF
proper strength, is better solvent and
preservatve of the medicinal principles
residing in our indigenous, or native,
medicinal plants than is alcohol; and
furthermore, that it possesses intrinsic
medicinal properties of its own, being
demulcent, nutritive, antiseptic and a
most efficient anti-ferment.
THEY STAND ALONE.

PIummer Fails to Make Good.
Alfred S. Plummer, a colored man upon
whose testimony 1t was expected to base
the burglary charge against Diggs, made
statement before County Attorney Sla-
baugh Tuesday morning which failed to
support the charges. Diggs is said to have
confessed to Plummer that he had broken
into the house and stolen the money. but
Plummer denied Diggs had told him any
thing about the case. Practically all of
the evidence he offered was that about the
time of the burglary Digs had $50 or $50
which he showed to several people, Plum
mer also said he understood Diggs had been
seen in the, vicinity of the murder shortly
before wheelers body was found. He did
not know anything about that himself,
however.
Diggs was once the hero of lynching
party, according to PIummers statement,
This was near Fort Crawford, where Diggs
! formerly worked. Diggs got into trouble
the nature of which did not appear and a
crowd tried to hang him. Plnmmer was ac-
quainted with a Pullman porter on the
railroad and he struggled Diggs into the
car dressed as a soldier and got him away.
Dlggs came 10 Omaha. Plummer also said
Diggs formerly worked for Mayor Dahl
man as butcher on his western ranch.
