A REASON

The Unite d Drug
ompany, manufac-
turers of the Rexall
Remedies, for whose
preparations we are
agents in this city, make
200 remedies, one for
each i'll. Each one is
especially prepared to
cure one disease, and
that only. This is an
age Of specialists. You
don't contract with a
plumber to build your
whole house. do you?
Why should you contract
with one proprietary
medicine to cure all your
troubles?
Ottentlmes you run
across a building con-
tractor who has a ssepa-
rate plumbing depart
ment, his own plastering
department, and 50 on,
all of which dovetail to-
gether and build the
house. This is just what
the United Drug COM
pany is doing for you
in the medicine line.
They have cut down
profits; they ranufac-
ture Rexall Remedies for
over 1000 retail drug
gists. These druggists
are the only intermediate
profit that stand between
The United Drug Com
pany and the patient.
CouM the United Drug
Company, of which We
arc a member, afford to
make one poor medicine
in this line? Does not
common sense tell you
that one poor medicine
would ruin the sale of
the other 100 prepara-
tons If you bought a
Rexall preparation and it
didn't do for you what
we claim it will, would
you buy another one of
our articles? We believe
not. Therefore each
preparation must be good
it is good. We who
are in the drug business
know the formulas of
these Rexall prepara-
tons. We believe in
them so implicitly that
we stand back Of them,
with our guarantee to
refund you your money
if they do not bcns6t
you.

Havana, Sept. 19.-Taft and party
arrived here this morning. An order
was issued to avoid any public dem
onstration. The party quietly disem-
barked, and Immediately went to Min
lister Morgan's home. Well informed
residents say that Tafts mission will
not be a success, and that fighting
win resume when he leaves, as
neither the insurgents nor the Loyal.
lists will concede the main issue. 1t is
believed the next step will be for a
provisional government, headed by
American soldiers. It is thought
Funston or Wood will be the probable
new encouragement. Fully ninety
per cent. of the property on the island
is owned by Spanish, Americans,
English and Germans. They are sol
idly for annexation, and believe it is
the only ultimate solution of the
trouble. The insurgents demand
new election. The Loyalists refuse
this, saying the last election was a
legal one. a majority of the insur
gents favor American rule. They
want no more of Palma. It is report
ed the insurgents are polluting the
water supply, and the urban villages.
thinking a pestilance is inevitable,
would hasten Intervention.
The insurgents could take the city,
but refuse, saying the movement is
merely an armed protest against the
present administration, and not a rev.
olution.

Special to the Herald
Topeka, Kas., Sept. ia telegram
from A. c. Mccall, superintendent of
the Oklahoma division of the Rock
Island, to the general offices here this
morning, says the fatalities in the
wreck near Dover, Okla, Tuesday
morning will not exceed three. Two
passengers and a brakeman are miss
ing. The car in which the two miss
ing passengers were is under water.
It will be fifteen hours, Mccall
thinks, before it can be reached and
searched for the bodies that are miss.
ing.
The trains are being detoured over
the Frisco and Santa Fe tracks.
The cause Of the wreck was the
bridge being washed out by the high
water. The train approached the
bridge at the rate of fifteen miles an
hour, when the engineer discovered
that the track was out of line. He
reversed the engine, applied the
brakes, and after telling the fireman
to jump he left the engine before IT
went into the water. The mail, bag
gage, smoker and day coach plunged
into the deep water, and in mo-
ment the smoking car was sub
merged and rolling over and over in
the water. The day coach swung
around about 100 feet below the
bridge and came within reach of the
shore, where many of the passengers
were rescued. The smoking car
stopped in the middle of the stream
and many passengers were hurled
and washed into the river

that the second city of the state, and
shortly to be the first city of the

The boys of Grand Forks interested
in the matter will get together in

kind of effort, an armory can be pro-
