The preparation of these medi-
cines without the use Of drop OF
alcohol, so generally employed and
vet so harmful, in the long run, to
most invalids when its use is long
continued, even in small doses, cost
DR.. Pierce several years of careful
study and labor, with the aid Of skill
ed pharmacists and chemists to as
sist him. Naturally. he does not care
to give away his scientific and exact
processes for preparing these medi-
cines, but he does want to deal in
the most open manner with all his
patrons and patients, and under this
frank, open and honest way of deal
ing, they may know exactly what
they are taking when using his med
iCines.
WHAT DO THEY CURE? This
question is often asked concerning
DIR. Pierce's two leading medicines,
Golden Medical Discovery" and
"Favorite Prescription
The answer is that Golden Medi-
cal Discovery" is a most potent al
terative or blood purifier and tonic
or invigorator, and acts especially
favorably in curative and healing
way upon all the mucous lining sur
faces, as of the nasal passages,
throat, bronchial tubes, stomach,
bowels and bladder, curing large
per cent of catarrhal cases, whether
the disease affects the nasal pas
sages, the throat, larynx, bronchia,
stomach (as catarrhal dyspepsia,
bowels Gas mucous diarrhea), blad-
der, uterus or other pelvic organs.
Even in the chronic or Lucrative
stages OF these affections it is often
successful in effecting cures.
The "Fa|orite Prescription is adj
vised for the cure of one class of dis
eases only-those peculiar weak
nesses, arrangements and irregulari-
ties incident to women. 1t is pow
erful yet gently acting invigorating
tonic and Strengthening nervine.
For weak, WORKOUT, overworked
women-no matter what has caused
the breakdown. "Favorite Prescrip-
ton will be found most effective in
building up the strength, regulating
the womanly functions, subduing
pain and bringing about healthy,
vigorous condition of the whole sys-
TEN.
Women suffering from diseases of
long standing are invited to consult

The most eminent and leading
medical teachers and writers of all
the several schools OF practice have
indorsed each OF the ingredients en-
tering into DR.. Pierces medicines in
the strongest possible terms. The
makers OF DR.. PierCe's medicines
believe that intelligent people do not
wish to open their mouths like a lot
OF Young birds and gulp down what
ever is presented to them, either in
the way of food, drink or medicine,
without knowing something OF the
properties and harmless character of
the agents employed. They believe
that health is too sacred a heritage
to be experimental with, and that
PEOPLE SHOULD NOT TAKE
MEDICINES OF THE COMPO-
SITION OF WHICH THEY ARE
KEPT IN IGNORANCE. DR..
Picrces medicines are made wholly
from the roots of plants found grow
sng in the depths of our American
forests. They are so compounded
that THEY CANNOT DO HARM
IN ANY CASE, EVEN TO THE
MOST DELICATE WOMAN OR
CHILD. BY open publicity DIR.
Pierce has taken his medicines out
OF the list of secret nostrums of
doubtful merit and made them
REMEDIES OF KNOWN COM
POSITION. They are therefore in
a class all by themselves, being alb
solutely and in every sense NON
SECRET.
BY this bold step DR.. Pierce has
shown that his formulas are of such
excellence that he is not afraid to
subject them to the fullest scrutiny.
There is a BADGE OF HON
FSTY on every bottle OF DR.. Pierces
medicines in the full list OF its in
gradients duly attested as correct
under solemn oath.
No other medicines put UP for
SClltI dl use liIlOISIi VII bSS 1StS Ndh
make claim to any such distinction.
and none other than DR.. Pierce's
have any such PROBES
SIGNAL Endorsement OF their in
gradients. Such PROFESSIONAL
Endorsements should have far more
weight with the afflicted than any
amount of lay or nonprofessional in
or testimonials.
OF course, the exact proportion of
each ingredient used in DR.. Pierces
medicines as we'll as the working
formula or manner of preparing the
same, and the specially devised ap-
paratus and appliances employed in
their manufacture are withheld from
publicity that DR.. Pierccs propri-
etary rights may be fully protected
from such unprincipled imitators as
might be practically inclined.

The New Zealand compulsory arbitra ton
act has made strikes impossible. 1t regu-
lates wages and hours in every trade. An
employer who does not conform to the con-
ditions is liable to fine Of 81 600 while a
workman may be fined $50. and IL a trade
union is a party to the breach 1t is fined
on higher scale than the employer. There
has been no strike in New Zealand since
this act was passed. It makes sweating

press somewhat heavily on small employ
ers, 1t confers a general benefit on the
country at large by preventing all the loss

abling them TO filter and strain the

Profit from the Garden.

The amateur gardener. whose love

she covets, may often make her garden

coiors. BY starting in with good stock.
and keeping it true to name. or even
by having good plump roots that are
mixed one may often make advan-
tagcohS sales to neighborS or to near
by SeedSmen. They multiply quite rap
idly. but the demand, at present, seems
to keep pace with the increase
The secret of success is to nave the
tuberS sound and firm. And this is
secured by giving them proper care
through the winter Pack them in sand
in dry. frost-proof cellar They will
keep firm and plump. affording Gus,
toners ample proof of their intention
TO grow.
Dahlias, too, are in favor again. and
are shown in some charming new col
orings and forms. The same treatment
applies to the care of these tuberS
through the winter
Gamma seeds are very hard to germi-
nate, and, while stock may be raised
that way, it is always doubtful how it
will turn out. 1t may prove inferior,
So the best way is to depend on the
propagation of the roots.

EASY FOOD
Ready for Instant Use without
CnnIxinr

Ready for Instant Use without
Cooking.
Almost everyone likes cereal food
of some kind at breakfast and supper,
but the ordinary way of cooking cereals
results in pasty mass that is hard to
digest, and if not properly digested, the
raw mass goes down into the intestinal
tract where gas is generated and trou-
BILE follows.
Everyone knows that good food prop
erly digested keeps the body well, while
poor food, or even food of good quality
that is poorly prepared and not digest
ed, is sure to bring on some kind of
disease.
The easiest food to digest in this line
is Grape-Nuts, made from wheat and
barley, and cooked thoroughly at the
factory, some - 70 16 hours being con-
sumed in the different processes of prep
aration. The food therefore. is ready
for instant service and the starch has
been changed TO a form Of Sugar, so
that it is pre-digesfed and ready for
almost immediate absorption.
A Chicago young lady writes that
she suffered for years from indigestion
and dyspepsia from the use of food that
was not suitable to her powers of di-
gestiOn. She says:
4 began using Grape-Nuts. ard
confess to having had a prejudice at
first. and was repeatedly urged before
finally decided to try the food, but 1
have not known what indigestion is
since using it, and have never been
stronger or in better health. I have in
creased in weight from 100 TO 124
pounds"
People can be well. practically with
out cost, if they will adopt scientific
food and leave off the indigestible sort.
There's Reason"
Grape-Nuts Food is crisp and deli
cious to the taste. 1t should be served
exactly as it comes from the package,
without cooking. except in cases where
it is made up into buildings and other
