What Do They Cure l!

The above question is often asked con-
cerning pr Pierce'S two leading medi-
cines Golden Medical Discovery and
TFayorite Prescription
The answer is that Golden Medical
Discovery is most potent Alternative or

and acts especially fayorably in cura-
tive way upon all the mucous lining sur
faces. as OF the nasal passages, throat,
bronchial tubes, stomach, bowels and

CIVILIZATION OF THE SOUTH.

Lie Daily Press has received from
jacob Gould Schurman. president of
Cornell University at Ithaca, N. Y. a
communication In which he makes a
tnrdy announcement that he never
uttered the remarks which were quot
ed as coming from him relative to the
conditions in the South, In which he
was said to have stated that the civ
ilization of the South was not as ad.
Yanced as that of the North. The
Daily Press did not use the alleged
Interview ut the time, believing that
1t was false, but 1t gained wide pub.
licity throughout the South and was
widely commented upon editorially.
Probably the most radical attack made
upon President Schurman was that
OF John Temple Graves In his Atlanta
Georgian, in which this unusually gift
cd writer INDUCED In language that
one would not have thought him ca
pable of.
In his letter President Schurman re.
fcrs to Mr.. Graves attack in n manly.
way, and then goes on to explain that
he had not made II denial before be-
cause he did not think 1t necessary.
Mr.. Schurman certainly mad reason to
believe that the denial was unneces.
snry. He had every reason to believe
that his WORK as nh educator and au-
thor were We. enough known to con.
vince one that he was not the sort OF
person who would cast surs on the
South. President Schurman Is not
that sort of man, and tho Daily Press
Is glad to aid in setting him right be-
fore the people of the Southland

There is n perceptible Improvement

much to the qualification of the naval
authorities, who found that something
must be done to keep men in the
navy Much the same condition con-
fronted the artillery of the army,
where men who had been trained for
special service in that branch found
ready means of employment Mt better
wh2es outside of the service. In the
artillery 1t was arranged that n man
should be eligible TO appointment as
plcttcr, observer. ETC., with increased
pay. and this has materially stimulat.
ed re.enlistments. Men who have
served term are anxious to stay
In the service, which is a condition
most desired by those In charge of the
enlisted force. In the navy those who
re-enlist are to be paid S. month
additional hereafter. The extra sum
VIII not apply to those who have re.
enlisted in tho past, but goes Into eff.
feet about this time. The order was
signed four months ago, and those
whose terms of enlistment had then
expired were permitted, under law
and regulations, to remain out of SER
vice four months and then return,
with the advantage OF continuous SER
vice, and now with the extra $50 a
year. The effect has been noticeable
Mt once and appears TO insure the ma
val force of the continuance in 1t of
men who have been specially trained
for duty Oh shipboard and whose place
will DO hard to fill with brand new
men.
