The three masted schooner Curlew

general tidying OF the vessel. Two wo-
men came up the companionway AFT
and, spreading rugs on the deck, sat
upon them with their backs against
the mizzen mast, One was an elderly
woman, the wife Of the captain; the
other perhaps twenty-five and a very
good looking person of the sailor class,
was the wife of the first mate. The
two women were making cruise with
their husbands. 1t was fine midsum-
mer weather, which in that northern
climate is very enjoyable.
Presently the captain stopped his pac-

something ahead. Lowering it. he said
to the women below him:
"Well be able to give you a glimpse
of an iceberg. There's one right In our

the prospect. but the younger, never

So much has been written by the
standard medical authorities, of all the
several schools OF practice, in praise
of the native, or American, medicinal
plants which enter into the composi-
ton OF DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery, that in attempting to quote
from the various works on Maferd
Medica one hardly knows where to
commence, since they are so volumin-
GUS that only the briefest and most inn

short article like this.
Briefly then let us say that the
vGolden Medical Discovery" was
. named from the sturdy little plant
Golden Seal, the root Of which enters
largely into its composition. Besides
this most valuable ingredient, it con-
tains glyceric extracts of Stone root,
Queen root, Black Cherrybark, Blood
root and Mandrake root.
Finley Ellingwood, NJ. D., an emin-
ent practitioner OF Chicago and Profess
sor Of lMatcria Medica in the Bennett
Medical College of that city, in his
recently published work on Therapeu-
tics, says OF Golden Seal root: at ia
the most natural of stimulants to the
normal functions Of digestion. Its in
fluence upon the mucous surfaces rem

Many other authorities as well as DR..
Ellingwood extol the Hydrastis Golden

eases of the nasal passages, stomach,
bronchia, gall ducts, kidneys, intestines
and bladder. Among these. we may
mention Prof. John King, M. d., author
of the American Dispensatory; Prof.
j. NJ. Scudder, NJ. D., in his g Specific
Medication" DR.. Hale OF the Hahne-
mann Med. College Of Chicago; Grover
Coe, M. D., Of New York, in his uOr-
ganic Medicines DIR. Bartholow OF JET
ferson Med. College and scores OF other
leading medical writer's and teachers.
All the foregoing eminent authorities
extol the curative virtues Of Golden
Seal in cases OF stomach, liver and in
testinal weakness, torpor and liberation
OF bowels. DR. Ellingwood recommends

dyspepsia when the entire apparatus,
including the liver, is stagnant and

as other equally potaut ingredients add
