A Bold Stem.

To overcome the well-grounded and
reasonable objections of the more intel
ligent to the use of secret, medicinal COM
pounds, DR.. r. V. Pierce, of Buffalo, n.
Y, some time ago, decided to make bold
departure from the usual course pursued
by the makers of put-up medicines for do
meStic use, and so has published broad
cast and openly to the whole world, full
and complete list of all the ingredients
entering into the composition of his widely
celebrated medicines. Thus he has taken
his numerous patrons and patients into
his full confidence. Thus too he has re-
moved his medicines from among secret
nostrums of doubtful merits, and made
them Remedies of K1OlC7l Composition.
BY this bold step DR.. Pierce has shown
that his formulas are of such excellence
that he is not afraid to subject them to
the fullest scrutiny.
Not only does the wrapper of every bottle
of DIR. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. the
famous medicine for weak stomach, torpid
liver or biliousness and all catarrhal diseases
wherever located, have printed upon 1T, IN
plain English, full and complete list of all
the ingredients composing 1t, but small
book has been compiled from numerous
standard medical works, OF all the different
schools of practice, containing very numer-
GUS extracts from the writings of leading
practitioners of medicine, endorsing in the
strongest possible terms. each and every 1ngre-
dent contained In Dr. P1erce'S medicines.
One of these little books will be mailed free
to any one sending address on postal card or
by letter. to DR.. R. V. Pierce, Buffalo, n Y,
and requesting the same. From this little
book it win be learned that Dr. Pierces med
icines contain no alcohol. narcotics, mineral
agents or other poisonous or injurious agents
and that they are made from native, medict.
nal roots of great value; also that some of
the mOSt,valuable ingredients contained in

The Political Situation in Ohio.

Governor Pattison of Ohio was a
democrat. but Lieutenant Governor
Harris. who now succeeds him, is re-
publican. The dead governor had made
but few appointments and his party
had so far gained but little advantage
by his election. Now his successor an
nOunces his intention to throw the Pat
tiSon platform over board and to run
things to suit the republican partisan
machine. Pattisou. was elected as the
result of a popular remonstrance
against machine rule and wide-open
immortality. The people wanted a
change from the policies which Her
rick was unfortunately compelled to
represent and republicans voted for
Pattison.
But his career was too brief TO ac-
complish much and he was handicap
ped by illness during his incumbency.
Now it appears that the lieutenant gov
ernor is to reverse the Pattison poll
cies and go back TO the republican ma
chine domination /.
All of which will contribute to the
rolling up of another democratic vie

The Inter-Ocean is level-headed in
