A VIndlcatlOn for DR.. Pierce.
Decision by the Supreme Court Of the
State, Against the Ladies' Home
Journal.

A verdict has been rendered in
favor Of the plaintiff in the libel suit
brought against the Ladies' Home
Journal published BY the Curtis Pub
fishing Col by the Worlds Dis
pensary Medical Association. Of which
DR.. r. v. Pierce is president. The
suit was brought by Doctor Pierce
against the Curtis Publishing Co..
for making false statements about one
Of his standard family medicines
Known as DR.. Pierce's Fayorite Pre-
scription. In the May number Of the
Ladies' Home Journal (19OD, Mr.. Ed
ward Box, the editor, stated that DR..
Pierce's Favorite Prescription con-
tanned alcohol and some other harm
full ingredients, and DR.. Pierce had
In the action alleged that the defend
ant maiIciously published this article
containing such false and defamatory
matter. DR.. Pierce further claimed
that no alcohol is or ever was con-
tanned in his ''Fayorite Prescription"
that said medicine was a vegetable
preparation and contained no dele
terious ingredients whatever; that Mr..
Bok's statement, pretending to give
some OF the ingredients of said medi-
cine, was wholly and absolutely
false. During the trial. the Vice.
President of the Worlds Dispensary
Medical Association stated, that the
ingredients OF DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription were extracted from the
following native roots: Golden Seal,
Blue Cohosh. Lady's Slipper, Black
Cohosh and Unicorn, by means OF
pure glycerine. He was asked how
he knew, as a physician and ex-
perienced medical man. that the ga
vorite Prescription was a cure for
the diseases peculiar to women, such
version retroversion. and he stated
that he knew such was the fact be-
cause of his professional experience
and the many thousands OF women
whose ills had been cured by this
Prescription" The Vice-President,
being asked to give his authorities.
read from the standard works, such
as the United States Dispensatory,
The American Dispensatory and many
other standard medical books.
The retraction printed by the Cur
tbs Publishing Company two months
after the libelous statement appeared
and nearly two months after the suit
had been begun stated definitely that
analyses had been made at their re-
quest and that the "Favorite Prescrip-
ton" did not contain either alcohol,
opium or digitalis.

ENTIRE FAMILY SLAIN
BY YAQUI INDIANS
Party Ambushed by 6IoodthIrsty Saw
ages and Men and Women are
RuthIessly Slaughtered.

Los Angeles.-News has reached
this city Of the murder OF Ave mem
bers Of the family Of Pedro Meza. pres.
ident OF La Dura. in Sonora. Mexico,
and q brotherin-law Of Frederick
hartman, president of the William
Hoege company Of Los Angeles, who
were massacred by Indians within q
few miles of their homes, and theil
bodies left In the roadway between
Ortiz and la Dura until a sufficient
number Of Mexican troops could be
sent to overawe the raiding outlaws
and bring in their victims.
Three members of the Meza family
survive. They are the baby son of
Pedro Meza and two young daughters.
MERGED and Elivra These children
had been left at home in La Dura
when the rest Of the family drove In
carriages to Quaymas for the purpose
Of consulting physicians about Senori-
Ia Eloise. who had been ailing. and
at the same time to enable other
members Of the family to do some
shopping and visit friends.
Returning from Guaymas, the party
stopped at Ortiz and 1t is supposed
they were Joined there by Mrs. Hoff
and her son. Here. It 10 said, they
learned Of the presence Of band of
Yaquis In the Los Otates mountains
and near Otates pass. through which
they would have to travel to reach
La Dura and the mining camps, where
F. A. Hartmann owns large proper
ties. The worst of the gorge was
passed and they had entered the
wider valley when, from every ledge
and mound of debris, came the crack
of rifles.
The men charged desperately up the
slopes, calling upon their head a rain
of lead to divert the fire from those
they were bound to protect. Thus
they fell with their faces to the unseen
foe. The last desperate stand Of the
survivors was made in the shelter Of
the overturned carriage and they
fought back to the last, knowing that
there was no mercy for them.

TO DETECT LEAK IN GAS ple,
Lsthsr of Soap Much Better Th,,
uslna a Match.

O1tH8 HGNlu.
The folly Of hunting for a leak in
gas pipe with a lighted match is M,
so much because OF the danger Of an
explosion as of other damage, as 1,
shown by the experience Of q West
Philadelphia householder last week
One OF two small leaks were detected
by going over all the pipes and hold
ing a lighted match to them. The
smell of gas ceased, but was replaced
few hours later by the smell Of
burning wood. Another visit to the
cellar showed a charred floor joist a
little distance above a gas pipe. There
was no apparent cause for this until
very close examination discovered
that a tiny jet of gas was issuing
from the pipe beneath the beam. It
was lighted, but was so small as to be
blue In color and nearly invisible. II
had been lighted by the match used
In the first investigation, but had not
been noticed.
IF that leak had happened to be
in a lead joint instead Of an iron con-
nection," said gas man. there
would probably have been work for
the fire department The smallest
possible Jet Of lighted gas issuing
through lead will in time heat and
melt the lead and make the leak larg-
er, until big fame is issuing. This
may make a fire hours later, in the
dead Of night or at a time when no
one Is In the house. The only prop
er way to look for these very small
leaks is to paint the suspected pipe
with a smooth soap lather. Just as
In the case Of bicycle tire, the tint
est leak will blow bubble In the
lather, and there you are."-Philadel

Ing sensations in my stomach. which
destroyed my sleep and almost un.
ntted me for work. Ny brain was SO
muddy and foggy that II was hard for
me to discharge my duties properly.
This lasted till about year ago
when my attention was called to
Grape-Nuts food by newspaper ad
and concluded to try II. Since then
have used Grape-Nuts at nearly ev
cry meal. and sometimes between
meals. We railroad men have little
chance to prepare our food in our ca
bosses and find Grape-Nuts mighty
handy, for 1t is ready cooked.
