The Best Guaranty Of Merit
Is Open Publicity.

Every bottle of DIR. Pierce's world
famed medicines leaving, the great iaoo,
ratory at Buffalo. N. Y, has printed
upon It's wrapper all the ingredients
entering into us composition. rms laes
alone places DIR. Plerce's Family Meol- ,rs
cines IN q class all by themselves. 1hey
cannot be classed with patent OF SecIet 1;I
medicines because they are heither. nS tnlS
Is why 80 many unprejudiced physicians
nrescriba them and recommend them 70
their patients. They know what they
are composed of, and that the ingredients
are those endorsed by the most eminent
medical authorities.
The further fact that neither DR..
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, the
great stomach tonic. liver invigOratOr,
6eart regulator and blood purifier nor his
aFayorite Prescription for weak, over
worked, broken down, nervous women,
contains any alcohol, also entities them
10 a place all by themselves.
Many years ago, DIR. Pierce discovered
that chemically pure glycerine, OF proper
strength, is better solvent ana presery-
atiye OF the medicinal principles reSid-
ing In our Indigenous. or native. medl-
ci1al plants than is alcohol; and, further
more. that IL possesses valuable medicinal
properties OF its own. being demulcent,
nutritive, antseptic. and most efficient
antiferment.
Neither Of the above medicines con-
tains alcohol, or any harmful, habit
forming drug, as Will be seen from a
glance at the formula printed on each
Bottle wrapper They are safe 10 use and
potent to cure.
Not only do physicians prescribe the
above. nOn-secret medicines largely. but
the most intelligent people employ them
people who would not think OF using
the ordinary patent, or secret medicines.
Every ingredient entering into the com
position of DIR. Pierce's medicines has
the strongest kind OF an endorsement
from leading medical writers of the
several schools Of practice. No other
medicines put up for like purposes has
any such professional endorsement.
DIR. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cure con-
stipation. Constipation is the cause OF
many diseases Cue the cause and you
cure the disease. One rPellet' IS gentle
laxative. and twoa mild cathartic. Drug
Rists sell them, and nothing is "just as
good" Easy 10 take as candy.

There is considerable excitement in
Transcsucasa owing to the possibility
of war with Turkey in the summer.
Turkey seems to be mobilizing troops
near the frontier, explaining that they
are simply engaged in maneuvers.
Nevertheless, the Viceroy of Transcau-
casa seems to he preparing for possible
eyentualilies. General Malama, the
chief of staff, and the artillery aud COM
missary officers have made an extensive
inspection tour of the frontier, and the
Notifications Of Kars, The strongest fort
ress on the border, are being strength
ened.
Many prominent families of Tihis,
dresding the outlook, are moving north.
No admission is obtainable in St.
Petersburg that Russia is indulging in
warlike preparations in Transcaucasia,
but it is possible that the military activ'
ity reported in the dispatch from Tiflis
is an echo of demonstration designed
10 support Great Britain in her dispute
with Turkey regarding the boundary OF
the Sinai peninsula.

OF all the diseases known, with
which women are afflicted, chronic
kidney disease is the most fatal. In
fact, unless early snd correct treatment
is applied, the weary patient seldom
survives.
Being fully aware Of this, Lydia
Z. Pinkham. early in her career, gave
exhaustive study 70 the subject, and in
producing her great remedy for
woman's ills - Lydia f. Pinkham's S
Vegetable Compound was careful to
see that It contained the correct cOmbi-
nation of herbs which was sure to con-
troll that fatal disease, womans kidney
troubles. Lydia + Pinkham's Vege-
table Compound is the only one espe-
cially prepared for women. and thou
sands have been cured of serious kidney
arrangements by IL. Derangements OF
the feminine organs quickly affect the
kidneys, and when a woman has such
symptoms as pain or weight in the
loins, baclIache, bearing-down pains.
scalding or burning sensations or de-
posits in the urine, unusual thirst,
swelling of hands and feet, swelling
under the eyes or sharp pains in the
back, running through the groin, she
NAV infer that her kidneys are affected
and should lose no time in combating
the disease with Lydia f. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound, the woman's
remedy for woman's ills.
The following letters show how
marvelously successful 1t is.

Interesting Letter.

A dispatch fromIBerlin ia. the New York
World says that the Orient CorrespOn-
denz has just made public the text
of letter written by Publius Lentulus,
an officer of Pontius Plates court, to the
Roman Emperor, which was recently
discovered in the library of the Lazarlst
Fathers in Rome.
If this letter proves authentic it may
be considered the most important his
torical document ever discovered re-
gardiug the personality of Jesus. Ii
purporls to have been written just az
Christ was beginning his preaching
through Judea. Ii reads
al have learned, o Caesar, that you
desired some information regarding this
yirtuons man called Jesus, The Christ,
whom The people consider cphet and
his disciples regard as the - OF God,
Creator of heaven,snd earth.
at is a tact that every day one hears
wonderful things told OF him. To be
briei, he makes the dead rise and he
heals the sick.
"He is a man OF medium size, whose
appearance indicates both great sweet
ness aud such an amount of dignity that
one feels in looking at him that he must
love him, and at the same time fear
him.
"His hair, down TO his ears, is OF the
color of ripe wanuts aud hangs down on
his shoulders as light blond and clear
mass; it is parted in the middle, accord
ing TO the fashion Of the Nszarenes.
His beard, of the same color as his hair,
10 curly, and although not very long, is
parted ia the middle like his hair.
"His eyes are rather severe and shine
like the sun; it is impossible for any one
to look him long 10 the face.
"When he scOds he inspires fear, but
very soon he himself begins to shed
tears. Even in his most severe moods
he is afable aud benevolent. 1t is said
that no Que has ever seen him laugh,
aud that be sheds tears very often.
"Eyery one finds that his conVersa-
ton is agreeable aud attractive. He is
not seen very often 10 public, and when
he appears he carries himself mOdestly.
"His manners are very distinguished
he is even beautiful /. is perhaps bt
cause his mother is the best looking wo'
man ever seen in these part-.
al you wish to see him, o Caesar, a:
you wrote me once, let me know and
shall send him 10 you.
"Allhough he has never pursued any
studies, he is well up in every branch O
knowledge.
'He goes around barefooted and with
out head cover.
"Many people make fun of him wher
they see him coming, hut as soon as they
are in his presence they tremble and ad
mire him.
"The Hebrews say that they haV'
never seen man like him, nor hear'
teachings like those he imparts.
"Many believe that he is god ant
Others assert that he is thine enemy. {

Labor Unions and Trade Schools

A criticism OF the attitude of labor
unions toward industrial schools was EN-.
bodied in thu report yesterday of the
comLlittee on industrial education to
the National Association of Manufac-
turers in New York. The report de-
clared that labor unions have made ef-
forts to hinder the perpetuation of trade
schools.
"Their efforts" said the report, "are
nothing short of crime against all those
Young men who desire to learn trade,
and are the cause, in considerable
measure, for the lack OF skilled labor in
the United States"
The tariff and reciprocity commi ttee
reported that under present conditions
many manufacturers are greatly hsndi-
capped ia the German market. The
committee asked that strenuous efforts be
made by the United States government
to reach Immediately a fair basis OF
trade with the German Empire. Another
need was stated to be some reciprocal
Arrangement for trade with Canada.
The secrelsry's preliminary report
was adopted. 1t stated that "sn anti
Injunction bill of almost any kind was
desired by the labor lobby" at Wssh'
ington during the present session o.
Congress.
Commissioner Garfield, OF the bureau
of corporations" it continued, "whO
had procured the introduction of so
called moderate anti.iDjunctiou bill in
the previous Congress, this time induced
the innocent Congressman Gilbert, o.
Indiana. TO introduce the sO-called mod
crate Gilbert snti-injunction bill. Thi
provided that notice should be given t.
the adverse parties before writ OF in
Junction could issue in any labor dis
pule."
The adherents of labor, said the re
port, we're divided over this bill, Sam
uel Gompers being among its opponents

check book is lost the Bank will give you
another; when you lose your wallet the story
is different. To have bank account and pay

In the town of North Canaan the question of good roads is becoming one of more importance each year. We speak with particular reference to the state roads which are being constructed. There Is considerable quantity of such road already completed, some in process of construction and it goes without say ing that more will follow. There are Canaanites who thoroughly believe that improved highways have had as much to do with the prosperity of the town as any other thing. And, by the way, have you ever seen a completed state road only six or eight feet wide and bor- dered by brush and small trees? No. you have not. There is ample room for the team and the automobile on state road.
