feeble women generally, DR.. Pierce's
favorite Prescription is the greatest
earthly boon, being unequaled as an
appetizing cordial and restorative tonic.
AS soothing and strengthening ner.
vine "Favorite Prescription" is un.
equaled and is invaluable in allaying
and subduing nervous excitability, ir-
ritability, nervous exhaustion, nervous
prostration. neuralgia, hysteria, spasms,
st. Vitus's dance, and other distressing,
nervous symptoms commonly attendant
upon functional and organic disease of
the uterus. 1t induces refreshing sleep
and relieves mental anxiety and des.
pondency.
No woman suffering from any of the
above symptoms can afford to accent
any secret nostrum or medicine of un.
known composition, as a substitute for
a medicine like DR.. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription, which is OF KNOWN COM
POSITION and has record of over forty
years of cures and sells more Ia arpelv
to-day than ever before. Its makers
withhold no secrets from their patients,
believing open publicity 10 be the very
best guaranty of merit. o
DR.. Pierce invites all suffering women
to consult him by letter free of charoe.
All letters of consultation are held as
strictly private and sacredly confiden-
tial and all answers are returned in

BIDS FOR CANAL BONDS.
ISSUE ACCEPTED TO AMOUNT OF
S25,OOO,OOO.
The Average Price Is 1O3-The Bids
So Far Mostly In Small Amounts
And From All Parts of the Country.

Washington, Dec. 6.-The secre-
tary OF the treasury has accepted bids
for the Panama canal bonds to- the
amount of $25,OO0.OOO. The average
price for Dll bids accepted is 1O3.
Under the terms of the law governing
the. secretary's acceptance of these
bids, the allotments of bonds to in
dividuals and institutions will be con-
fined to the small subscriptions. from
$4,000 down to $50.
The amount Of bids from indivvid!
uals and institutions which 1t had
been possible to accept will, as here
tofore. not be large. The remainder
OF the acceptances will be bids of ma
tional banks. The bids accepted have
come from every section Of the
country and are mostly in small
amounts.
Secretary Cortelyou further an
nounces that the notices Of accept
ances will be prepared and mailed to
the successful bidders with the least
possible delay. The notices will
state that payments for the bonds will
be expected to be made at the treas
ury OF the United States or at some
sub-treasury. as indicated In the bid
of the subscriber within 10 days from
the receipt Of the notice by the sub
scriter. In the case where the
subscriber has. not indicated the
place Of payment. the notices sent
viii include a request that the place
OF payment be Immediately made
known to the secretary. All subscrib-
ers should await receipt Of the notice
from department before taking any
action respecting payment for the
bonds.
The offering of Panama canal bonds
was largely oversuhscribed, but the
Improvement In business conditions
following the announcement of recent
measures Of reliefTby the treasury de-
partment Is regarded by the secretary
as warranting him in limiting thes is
sue at this time to half the amount
offered. namely. $4,000. 900. This is
almost exactly the amount Of the dis
bursements from the general fund of
the treasury that have been made
during the year on the Panama canal
account sr
The allotment Of the per cent
certificates will not. the secretary says,
exceed $4,000. These have been
confined to national banks throughout
the country which were in position to
take out at once additional circula-
tiQn, this being measure designed
to afford immediate relief. inasmuch
as considerable time would necessa-
riiy eiapse before the Panama canal
bonds could be put on the market
