OPEN PUBLICITY THE BEST
GUARANTY OF MERIT.

When the maker of medicine, sold
through druggists for family use, takes
his patients fully into his confidence by
frankly and fearlessly publishing broad
cast as well as on its bottle wrappers,
full list Of all its ingredients IN plain
English, this action on his part Is the
best possible evidence that he is not
afraid to have the search light of inves-
tigation turned full upon his formula
and that 1t will bear the fullest scrutiny
and the most thorough investigation.
DR.. Pierce's Fayorte Prescription for the
cure Of the weaknesses, periodical pains
and functional arrangements of the or
gans distinctly feminine, Is the only medi-
cine put up for sale through druggists for
woman's Special use, the maker of which
is not afraid to take his patients into
his full confidence by such open and
honest publicity.
A glance at the published ingredients
on each bottle wrapper, will show that 1t
is made wholly from native, American,
medicinal roots, that 1t contains no poi
sonous or habit-formng drugs, no mar
cotics and no alcohol-pure, triple-refned
glycerine, of proper strength being used
instead of the commonly employed alec.
hol, both for extracting and preserving
the active medicinal properties found In
the roots of the American forest plants
employed. 1t is the only medicine for
women's peculiar diseases. sold by drug
centage of alcohol, which is in the long
run so harmful to woman's delicate. nerv-
GUS system. Now, glycerine is perfectly
harmless, and serves valuable purpose
by possessing intrinsic value all It's own,
and besides it enhances the curative
effect of the other ingredients entering
into the vFavorte Prescription
Some of the ablest medical writer's and
teachers endorse these views and praise
all the several ingredients OF which VIA
vorite Prescription is composed rec
ommending them for the cure of the
very same diseases for which this world
famed medicine is advised. No other
medicine for women has any such pro
fessto1l0J endorsement--worth more than
any number Of ordinary testimonials. II
interested, send name and address to DR..
r. Y. Pierce, Buffalo, u. Y, for his little
book OF extracts from the works OF
eminent medical writers and teachers,
endorsing the several ingredients and
telling just what DIR. Pierce's medicines
are made Of. It's free for the asking.

THE LAW.

Commissioner Burke is meeting with
the hearty endorsement of the people
OF Wyoming in his efforts to enforce
the pure food law and the merchants
are showing n disposition to cooperate
with him. The several arrests made
show that no f~oolisnness will be toler
ated and hat II is the purpose of the
commissioner to perform his duty.
When Mn. Burke was first appointed
he made Il his business to travel over
the state and explain to the merchants
the provisions of the law and to &C
quaint them with his duties and pur-
poses. Having done this, the next step
was to proceed with the enforcement
Of the statute, using care and discre-
tion at all times. No arrests were made
until after making complete analyses
of goods being sold in violation Of the
law.
1t will be better for the merchant
and certainly better for the consumer
to have the pure food law rigidly en-
forced. The people ought to be in a
position to feel sure that when they
buy a piece of sausage or a pint Of
oysters or a gallon of syrup that they
are not buying something entirely diff
ferent from what they thought they
were getting.

LOYAL, PATRIOTIC AMERICA.

In their generous response to the
suffering Mt San Francisco, what a
magnificent object lesson the people OF
America have given to the nations OF
the entire earth. From Maine to Tex
as, from Seattle to Jacksonville, the
people have given generously and
promptly. The only trouble Just at
present appears TO be the inability of
the transportation lines, owing to the
great rush, to handle all the goods.
However, they are doing their utmost
being served splendidly, all things con
sidered. Mr.. Hartman is deserving of
a vote of thanks from the entire people
of the nation for the manner in which
he stepped scuarely to the front in the
hour of dire extremity. His lines are
the chief ones that can aid the people
OF the stricken city and they are act
ing without charge and nobly. Relief
trains are given preference over pas
senger trains and h fastest engines.
Mr.. Hartman has gone to the scene of
trouble and is personally giving orders
for the transmission of everything that
the people of America are forwarding.
He is also aiding in bringing order out
of chaos In the burned district.
The sun given has already reached
many millions and is growing every
hour. 1t will continue to grow for
weeks, as the lodges and societies over
the country meet, vote and contribute
their mite. Systems of collection are
being established in every state and
circulars of appeal are being printed
and sent out.
President Roosevelt has indicated
that no foreign contributions will be
received. This is the proper spirit, as
America is perfectly able to take care
of her sufferers. We can but feel kind.
ly toward those generous people of for
eign lands who have promptly extended
their sympathy and aid, but the latter
must be declined. We do not need it.
1t will be time enough to go to them
when u Owl IL and magnan-
unity has been exhausted.
