You can't do any good work
in the world without offending
somebody" said Congressman
Longworth in a recent address.
The man who makes no enemies
is the man who does no good.
Some men, but for this fear of
making enemies, might accomplish
something. As it IS they remind
me of the dying man who was too
cautious even to make his peace
with Providence:
Do you renounce the devil
and all his works? the minister
asked the dying man.
And the dying man replied, in
a weak, hesitating-v voice:
Please don't ask HE that. I
am going to a strange country, and
7 do not want to make myself
enemies -

 A glance at the published ingredients on each bottle wrapper, will show that 1t is made wholly from native, American, medicinal roots, that it contains no poi sonous or habit-forming drugs. no mar cotics and no alcohol-pure. triple-refined glycerine, of proper strength being used instead of the commonly employed alco' hol, both for extracting and preserving the active medicinal properties found in the roots of the American forest plants employed. It is the only medicine for women's peculiar diseases. sold by drug gists, that does not contain large per centage of alcohol, which is in the long run so harmful to woman's delicate. nerv- ous system. Now, glycerine Is perfectly harmless, and serves valuable purpose by possessing intrinsic value all it's own, and besides it enhances the curative effect of the other ingredients entering into the "F'avorlte Prescription
