Down at Portland, strike by the

by the company in raising the salar.
les of its employees. How different
would be the termination of the
trouble, had the matter came up for
settlement in Pittsburg or st. Louis.
The difference is great, the reason
being that the Portland company is

Do Won Want to Know
What You Swallow ?

There is q growing sentiment IN this
country in favor of MEDICINES or KNOWN
COMPOSITION. 1t is but natural that one
should have some interest in the compo-
'sftion OF tNat which he or she is expected
TO swallow, whether it be food, drink or
medicine.
Recognizing this. growing disposition
on the part Of the public, and satisfied
that the fullest publicity can only add 10
the well learned reputation OF his medi-
cincs, DIR. r. v. Pierce, OF Ertfalo. N. Y,
has Htaken time by the fOrelOck,n as it
were, and is publishing broadcast list

leading medicines, tho ~Goldon Medical

stomach tonic, blood purifier and heart
regulator; also OF bis rFavorite Prescrip-
tion" for weak, over worked, broken
down, nervous and invalid women.
This bold and out-spokcn movement on
the part OF Dr. Pierce, has, by showing
exactly what his weil-known medicines
are composed OF, completely disarmed all
harping critics who have heretofore un-
Justly attacked them. A little pamphlet
has been compiled, from the standard
medical authorities Of all the several
schools OF practice, showing the strongest
of the several ingredients which enter into
DIR. Pierce's medicines. A copy OF this
little book Is mailed free to any one de-
string to learn more concerning the valu-
able. native, medicinal plants which enter
into the composition OF DR.. Pierce's med
Icines. Address DR.. Pierce as above.
