A Most Valuable Agent.

The glycerine employed in Dr. Pierce's
medicines greatly enhances the medicinal
properties which it extracts from native
medicinal roots and holds in solution
much better than alcohol would. It also
possesses medicinal properties of it's own,
being valuable demulcent nutritive,
antiseptic and antiferment. 1t adds
greatly to the efficacy of the Black Cherry
bark, Bloodroot, Golden Seal root, Stone
root and Queens root contained In
uGolden Medical Discovery in subduing
chronic, or lingering coughs, bronchial,
throat and lung affections, for all of which
these agents are recommended by stand
ard medical authorities.
In all cases where there is wasting
away of flesh, loss of appetite, with weak
stomach, as in the early stages of con-
sumption, there can be- ID doubt that gly
cerine acts as valuable nutritive and
aids the Golden Seal root, Stone root,
Queens root and Black Cherryb bark in
promoting digestion and building up the
flesh and strength, controlling the cough
and bringing about healthy condition
not be expected to work miracles. It will
not cure consumption except in it's earlier
stages. It will cure very severe, Obsti-
nate, hang-on, chronic coughs, bronchial
and laryngeal troubles, and chronic sore
throat with hoarseness. In acute coughs
it is not so effective. It is in the lingering
hang-on coughs, or those of long standing,
even when accompanied by bleeding from
lungs, that it has performed it's most
marvellous cures.
Prof. Finley Ellingwood, M. D., of Ben
nett Med. College, Chicago, says of gly-
cerine:
wIn dyspepsia it serves an excellent purpose.
Holding fixed quantity of the peroxide Of

CUSTOM OF "cANING" THE
NOTICEABLE JUNIORS.

Glass day exercises by the Seniors,
followed by the play THE Elopement

torium with an overflow audience last
night. The exercises opened with a
short address by Grova Cookery pres
ident of the class who said in part:
Friends, members OF the faculty
and fellow students l take great pleas
ure in offering a test to your patience
and endurance, a test which each year
you bear without fiinching and which
1 feel you will bear this year with for
titude. 1t is a time hOnored custom
in high school for the senior class to
give a play, not that they may dis
play their histronic talents, not that
they may make money, but that they
may bring to your mind that the Sen
ior class of High School is factor of
the commonwealth, very great rae
tor. For four years only it's most in
innate friends has known its real
greatness, tonight we f1aunt our vir-
tues to the world.
For four long years we have run
awav from anything that marks friv-
olity; for four long years we nave
paced these halls of learning with
looks sober steadfast, and demure,
with mind turned toward the heights
from which we drew our strength and
knowledge. fleeing from the childish
amusements of the Freshmen, the I'M
dignified pranks of the Sophomores,
and the intalerable intolerance OF the
Juniors. We have known nothing but
labor and this we prove ourselves to
you tonight
81 take this occasion to offer the
class of 1906 as loyal subjects of the
Walla Walla high school, to pledge
our support to it, to guard its interests
and to prove ourselves at all times
proud of the fact that we are gradu-
ates of this institution.
Our pride is founded on the knowl-
edge that no High School in the state
has done more to raise the standard
of secondary education, no high school
has sent out better equipped gradu-
ates. and we make an appeal to the
underclassmen to guard with jealous
eve anv act which would lower the
standard of the school, either In
scholarship or discipline

ident. Miss Margaret Schorr, presented
TO the Juniors, a class cane which was
accepted on behalf of the juniors by
Charles Stewart. The play, 1.-The

it was recalled and referred to the

In the report it is stated that the
laws of China differ so radically in
spirit and execution from the laws Of
the west that the nations of the world
have found it expedient not to allow
their people resident in China to be
subjected to Chinese jurisdiction. A
treaty was therefore negotiated with
China by the United Stats providing
that all violations of the criminal
law, or all disputes over civil mat
tiers in which an American is involved
shall be tried before an American Off
cial Heretofore these cases have
been tried by the consuls, but Uncle
Sam has lately come to believe
through some bitter experience, that
political appointee is not the chap

Americans in China ought to be en-
trusted.
