So much has been written by the
standard medical authorities, of all the
several schools of practice, in praise
Of the native, or American, medicinal
plants which enter into the compost
ton of DR.. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery, that in attempting to quote
from the various works on Matesia
MedacG one hardly knows where to
commence, since they are so volumin-
Gus that only the briefest and most i'm
perfect reference can be presented in a
short article like this.
Briefly then let us say that the
HGolden Medical Discovery" was
named from the sturdy little plant
Golden Seal, the root of which enters
largely into it's composition. Besides
this most valuable Ingredient it con-
tains glyceric extracts of Stone root,
Queens root, Black Cherrybark, Blood
root and Mandrake root. .g&
Finley Ellingwood, NJ. D., an emin-
ent practitioner of Chicago and PROBES
sor of Materia Medica in the Bennett
Medical College of that city, in his
recently published work on Therapeu-
tics, says of Golden Seal root: ut is
the most natural of stimulants to the
normal functions of digestion. Its in
auence upon the mucous surfaces rem
ders it most important in catarrhal
gastritis Inflammation of stomach) and
gastric (stomach) liberation"
Many other authorities as we'll as DR..
Ellingwood extol the Hydrastis Golden
6eaD, as a remedy for catarrhal dis
eases Of the nasal passages, stomach,
bronchia, gall ducts, kidneys, intestines
and bladder. Among these, we may
mention Prof. John King, NJ. D., author
OF the American Dispensatory; Prof.
J. NJ. Scudder, NJ. D., in his vSpecific
Medication" DR.. Hale of the Hahne-
mann Med. College of Chicago; Grover
Coe, NJ. D., of New York, in his vOr-
ganic Medicines" DR.. Bartholow of JET.
ferson Med. College and scores of other
leading medical writer's and teachers.
All the foregoing eminent authorities
extol the curative virtues of Golden
Seal in cases of stomach, liver and in
, testinal weakness, torpor and liberation
of bowels. DR.. Ellingwood recommends
It most highly, yin those cases of atomic
dyspepsia when the entire apparatus
including the liver, is stagnant and
inoperative." He also extols it most
highly in the many weaknesses and de-
rangements peculiar to women and
says, ut is a most important remedy in
many disorders of the womb" Golden
Seal root (Hydrastis), is an important
ingredient of DR.. Pierce's Favorite Pre-.
scription for weak, nervous, vrundown'
women.
But to return to the vGolden Medica
Discovery" it may be said that its cur
alive properties are not wholly depend
ent upon Golden Seal, valuable as it is
as other equally potant ingredients ado
greatly to its value and in fact are no
less important than the Hydrastis, o.
Golden Seal.
In all bronchial, throat, lung ant
kindred ailments, Stone root, Blacl
Cherrybark, Queens root and Blood
root, each plays as important par
in efecting the phenomenal cures o
vGolden Medical Discovery" as doe

have the endorsement of prominen
practitioners Of all schools of medicine
for the cure of diseases of the bronchia

A TRAINED NURSE
After Years of Experience, Advises Women in
Regard to Their Health.

Mrs. Martha Pohlman
OF IS Chester Avenue,
Newark, N. j., who Is a
graduate Nurse from the
Blockley Training School,
at Philadelphia, and for
six years Chief Clinic
Nurse at the Philadelphia
Hospital, writes the letter
printed below. She has
the advantage of personal
experience, besides her
professional education,
and what she has to say
may be absolutely relied
upon.
Many other women are
afflicted as she was. They
can regain health in the
same way. It is prudent
to heed such advice from
such a source.

The holocaust of crime which has
been the sorrow of the Negroes Of
Denver for the past few months has
had only one ray of light in it. The
gun.carrying and knife-using citizen
brings no credit on himself and Is a
source of expense to the state and Of
reproach to his lndmates. We wish
that public sentiment would be
aroused among us SO that 1t will be a
stigma for one to SO conduct himself
that crimes are made easy, even
though there may be justification In a
greater or less degree for them. Ne
groes must remember that the same
privileges do not extend to us In this
white mans country as to the other
race, and We must be mere than their
match in all respects to get equal
credit Yet out of 1t all has come the
gladstone spectacle Of Negro lawyer
achieving victories in defense Of his
kind that seemed impossible. BY
clearing the girl who was on trial for
murder this week, Lawyer Stuart has
again shown competency In an unusual
degree. Race lovers were thrilled sew
eral weeks since when despite the ef-
forts of the whole police department
to convict he secured the acquittal Of
Negro for the killing Of a policeman.
His success was accentuated by the
conviction of his companion for the
same crime, the latter having a white
attorney, two weeks ago. Now comes
again his victory of this week. 1t gives
us great pleasure to congratulate Law
yer Stuart; we are proud to point to
the achievement of Negro when COM

1t was easy to score Gabbert
when no voice was raised in his de-
tense. Now the Republicans apart
from pointing to the results for peace
and prosperity are educating the peo-
pie In the salient points Of the cases
that have been so much discussed. 1t
takes no knowledge of legal lore to
know that there must be somewhere
In the statutes provisions whereby the
state can defend itself when It's integ-
rity Is attacked. the same as
private individual, can defend him
self and be within his rights. In
the last state election Democracy
was the first to ask the help Of the
Supreme Court In having watchers ap-
pointed at the polls to insure An hon
est election. 1t was granted its re
quest in two counties In this state and
denied in two where 1t was itself in
power. and where common sense
showed that 1t could not possibly fear
fraud from Republicans. The Repub-
licans' request was granted in Den

Democracy had come to be known the
country over II followed that II the
court was right in granting these re-
quests-and 10th parties agreed to 1t
before election-the punishment of the
election crooks who disobeyed its
edicts was also right The truth Is
that Democracy wanted the services of
the court to prevent fraud when Re-
publicans were guilty and not when 1t
was. This is the plain truth and 1t
finds that Gabbertism Is far less useful

attention especially to certain stat
utes as you enter upon the discharge
of our duties as grand jurors. These
statutes are familiar to many of you
from having served previously upon

are statutes which the Legislature
