Eminent Doctors Praise Its Ingredients.

We refer to that boon to weak, nervous,
suffering women known as DIR. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription.
Dr. John Fyfe one of the Editorial Stan
of The ECLECTIC MEDICAL REVIEW says
of Unicorn root (HelontGs DiOicG) which
is one of the chief ingredients of the "FNa-
VOrite Prescription:
"a remedy which invariably acts as a utter
Inc invigorator makes for normal ae 9;
tivity of the entire reproductive system. ="
He continues 'ln HeloniaS we have med1ca-
ment which more fully answers the above
purposes than any other drug q0ith G0htch am
0cQWGtatsd In the treatment of diseases Pc
culiar to women it is seldom that case is
seen which docs not present some indication
for this remedial agent" DR.. Fyfe further
says: 1.-The following are among the leading
indications for HeloniaS (Unicorn root. Pain
or aching in the back, with leucorrhOea;
atomic weak conditions OF the reproductive
organs of women, mental depression and ir-
ritability, associated with chronic diseases of
the reproductive organs OF women, constant
sensation of heat in the region of the kid
neys; menorrhagia (1ooding), due to weak
ened condition of the reproductive system;
Rmenorrhoea Suppressed or absent monthly
periods), arising from or accompanying an
abnormal condition of the digestive organs
and an8mic (thin blood habit; dragging
sensations ia the extreme lower part OF the
abdomen"
If more or less of the above symptoms
are present, no invalid woman can do
better than take DIR. Pierce's FaVorite
Prescription, one of the leading ingredi-
ents OF which is Unicorn root, or Helonias,
and the medical properties Of which it
most faithfully represents.
OF Golden Seal root, another prominent
Ingredient Of "Favorite Prescription, -
Prof. Finley Ellingwood NJ D., Of Ben
nett Medical College, Chicago, says:
1T is an important remedy in disorders OF
the womb In all catarrhal conditions .
and general enfeeblement, it is useful"
Prof. John M. Scudder, NJ. D., late of
Cincinnati, says of Golden Seal root:
I'm relation to it's general effects on the
system, there Is no medicine IN use about s0hich
there is such general unGniDaity Of opinion 1t
is untUersaEty regarded as the tonic useful in
all debilitated states"
Prof. Bartholow, M. D., Of Jefferson
Medical College, says of Golden Seal:
Valuable in uterine hemorrhage, menor-
rhagia (hoOding) and congestive dysmenor-
rhoea painful menshruation)."
DR.. Pierce's FavDrite Prescription faith
fully represents all the above named in
gradients and cures the diseases for which
they are recommended.

Not "a Foolish Struggle"

An Indiana girl of seventeen recent
ly took her own life, leaving note IN
which she described life as "a foolish
struggle adding ''the sooner we get
out of it the better" How can any one
so regard life? Ask the patriarch who
sits amid the falling shadows and re-
counts the achievements of the Well
spent years; ask the matron whose de-
clining days are made glad by the com
panionship of virtuous children and
grandchildren; ask those who, strong
in faith, are devoting themselves TO
the worlds work or ministering to the
needs Of those who require assistance
ask any of these and the answer will
be that life instead of being "a foolish
struggle is a glorious drama in which
pain and pleasure, joy and sorrow are
so mixed that the love Of Heavenly
Father shows forth with increasing
clearness as the facts and scenes sue
coed each other.
Only those can look upon life as
foolish struggle who view it from a
selfish standpoint and, pursuing false
ideals, are blind to its splendid possl-
bilities and it's great rewards. Be-
cause so much depends upon ones con-
ception Of life-upon ones ideals-it is
the duty of the parents, the school,"
teacher and the religious instructor TO
set before the people-and especially
the young-ideals that will inspire to
noble endeavor.-The Commoner.

The other day .nan was selling
some toy balloons in the street, and he
had them on long string. Suddenly
a gust of wind blew them all out Of bis
hand. and away. they bounded.
Two dogs were playing about near
by, and when they saw the pretty bal
looms, they thought to themselves,
Here's some funr' and off they went
after them.
They each got the string in their
mouths and tugged and pulled SO hard
that presently it snapped, the dogs
rolling over on top of the balloons, and
cTack-bang! they burst, one after the
other.
I think those two dogs had the big
gest fright of their lives then, and they
wondered what had happened, says
Home Chat.
But later on their master found out
about it, and paid the man whose bal
looms had been spoiled enough money
to buy a fresh stock, SO no very great
harm was done after all.

Important Organ is Not Absolutely Neces.
sary to Existence.
Although the stomach is a valuable
organ, it is perfectly possible to get on
along without it. as was set forth re-
Gently by Professor III. J. Paterson, +.
r.. C. S., in lecture delivered at the
Royal College of Surgeons, OF England,
at London. During the course of his
remarks the lecturer discussed the re-
moval of the whole stomach as rad
ical cure for malignant disease. The
lecturer, observed, says The London
Standard, that while the value of a
good stomach is undOubted, fortunately
Nature is able to dispense with this
organ, as most of it's functions can be
performed vicariously by other por-
tons of the alimentary canal.
Nature has duplicated three OF the
four functions performed by the
stomach, although the loss Of the gas
trio secretion cannot altogether be
compensated. ''Those who have lost
it," says one authority, ''have one
weapon the less in the struggle for ex-
istence.' It has been shown that
dogs may gain in weight and remain
in perfect health after removal of the
entire stomach, while the elaborate
observations made on patient prove
that the same holds good Of human be-
ings. These observations record that
the absorption of albumen was unaf-
fected, and no putrefactive changes oc-

that the absence of the gastric juice
does not lead to decomposition in the

A Straw

A good roads meeting was recently
held in Buck County, Pennsylvania, in
which the townships records were pro
duced to show that the present amount
of money raised by taxation and avail
able for local improvements was more
than one-third larger than a few years
ago, although the tax rate is the
same. It was held that the increase
In the value of property had been
brought about solely by the construc-
ton of good roadways. 1t was stated
that the townships in the county which
had borrowed money to carry on road
work found themselves able to reduce
materially their debt each year by
reason Of the increased value Of real
estate.-Good Roads Magazine.

Words cannot speak highly enough

so bad that blood poisoning had set

where l was laid up for two months.
MY foot and ankle were almost be-

An Aid to Crop Marketing.

With good roads the farmers could
market their crops at convenience;
they would have extended time in
which to move their surplus, and this
would relieve the periodic strains on
the money market, which naturally
have a depressing effect on the bust
ness Of the whole country, and reach
even to the national treasury. The
road question, we see, is a national
as well as local question, and as such
it should have the quick attention OF
Congress. Highway improvement is

who is an authority on the construc-
ton of sand clay roads. He says:
"The necessary quantity of sand on
clay, or clay on sand, has to be deter
mined by experimenting. When the
! road has been propely graded, and
the rOad-bed is of sand foundation, the
clay is spread evenly over the surface
to a depth of from fo"r to six inches,
the depth depending on the per cent.
of sand in the clay. II the -oad-bed
is of clay foundation, the sand is
spread on a little thicker, say from
six to eight inches. The clay or sand
is simply spread on, not Mixed as the
mixing is done by the travel over. the
road. which is not interfered with
while the read is in course Of con-
struction. find after thorough expert
menting that sand on clay does not
give us as good results as clay on SAND,
on account of the drainage being in
sufficient under the rOad-bed and the
clay not being as porous as the SAND.
''As to the durability of the roads
treated in this manner, / will state
that those which were built five years
ago are in as good condition now
as when constructed, and in some in
stances better. Of course the roads
have to be run over occasionally and
repaired, which is quickly and easily
done. Sometimes when there is much
travel over the roads small holes will
wear in them, due to lack of clay or
sand being not at that particular point.
I find this to be the case near Column
bia where travel is necessarily great
er than in the remote sections or the
country. There are some roads in the
country, constructed five years ago,
that have had no repairs and are now
in first-class condition.
eve have about four hundred miles
of public roads built on the sand
CLAW method out Of a total of about
six hundred and fifty miles in the
country. These roads are giving per-
feet satisfaction, and have stood the
tests of hard rains and constant travel.
The cost of constructing roads by this
method depends on the amount or
grading to be done and the distance the
sand or clay mas TO De Iauleu. AAe
cost of repairs is very slight.
I'm constructing roads by this meth
cd care must be taken not to get the
cross-section grade too heavy, as this
will have a tendency to cause the
sand OF clay to wash from the sur
face of the road"
There are very many sections in this
country, particularly il the South,
where sand and clay are the only avail
able materials suitable fer road-build-
ing, ard in sections where such con-
ditio,s prevail the peor;e would do
