Its name-rGolden Medical Discovery
was suggested by one OF its most import-
ant and valuable ingredients - Golden
Seal root.
Nearly forty years ago, DR.. Pierce dis
covered that he could, by the use Of pure,
triple-refined glycerine, aided by Ger.
tain degree OF constantly maintained
heat and with the aid OF apparatus and
appliances designed for that purpose, ex-
tract from our most valuable native me-
dcinal roots their curative properties
much better than by the use OF alcohol,
so generally employed. So the now world
famed Golden Medical Discovery for
the cure of weak stomach, indigestion, or
dyspepsia, torpid liver, or biliousness and
kindred arrangements was first made, as
1t ever since has been, without particle
OF alcohol in its makeup.
A glance at the full list Of its ingredi-
ents, printed on every bottle-wrapper,
will show that II Is made from the most
valuable medicinal roots found growing
In our American forests: All these in
gradients have received the strongest en-
dorsement from the leading medical ex-
perts, teachers and writers on Mdtertd
Medicd who recommend them as the very
best remedies for the diseases for which
rGolden Medical Discovery" Is advised.
A little book Of these endorsements has
Dttu ny III. '. VI
Buffalo, n. Y, and will be mailed free to
any one asking same by postal card, or
letter addressed TO the Doctor as above.
From these endorsements, copied from
standard medical books OF all the differ:
ent schools OF practice, 1t will be found
that the ingredients composing the rGold-
en- Medical Discovery are advised not
only for the cure of the above mentioned
diseases. but also for the cure OF all ca
tarrhal, bronchial and throat affections,
accompanied with catarrhal discharges,
hOarseness, sore throat, lingering, or
hang-on- coughs, and all those wasting
affections which, II not promptly and
properly treated are liable 70 terminate
In consumption. Take DIR. Pierce's Dis
covery in time and persevere in its use
until you give II fair trial and 1t Is not
likely to disappoint. Too much must not
be expected OF it. 1t will not perform
miracles. II will not cure consumption
In its advanced stages. No medicine Will.
It totll cure the affections that lead up ia
consumption. II taken IN time.

A Paper.
The Compliments to the Old
Folks" read by Mrs. Larson, of
Coveville, is considered very good
indeed, and is presented here as
follows:
My dear brethren, sisters and
friends who have this day as
sembled, representing the old
people Of this stake of Zion, l
compliment you with all my heart
for having passed through the
critical period of life, even
through the fire as it were with
kout having been scorched to the
extent that it has .disfigured you
in a way that would not meet the
general approval. Those who
have passed the halfway mark,
or milestone in life, should re-
joice that the journey is thus far
completed. l dare say that not
one would desire to pass over the
road again, though they know
where they have stumbled and
might through the lessons learned
by their experience avoid many
errors of the past, but wouldfain
press onward to the goal.
Many of you who have reached
the ripe old age have heard the
epetaph "He or she is entering
upon their second childhood and
becoming childish and perhaps
have taken it as a reflection cast
| at them and no doubt many times
it is meant to be by some un-
thinking person-but / thank my
Heavenly Father that there is a
second childhood when we again
return to our innocent, confding
and loving nature which has to a
great extent been lost in the age
of financial strength; to time
when humility, patience, kindness
and tenderness are the ruling
characteristics of our nature. Let
those who would belittle old age
forget not that it will take years
of their life to attain to the
standard of knowledge gained
through long years Of sad expert
ence by their noble grand sires
The young and middle aged may
be better read III the arts, sciences
and letters because of the greater
advantages given them by these
veterans Of early days. 1t is they
who have paved the way, laid the
foundation and made it possible
for the growth and development OF
their posterity and they rejoice il
the fruits of their labors. Let the
youth uncover their heads an6
bow in reverence to old age-fol
it is honorable yea it is venerable
/ rejoice in the association of the
aged for there presence is an in
spiration to me, inviting me ,tc
live the higher life.
Brethren and sisters, rejoice
that you are nearing your promo

thief. The farmers have suffered so much
from the depredations of melon thieves
that they have been putting strychnine

is good for their favorite. The Brewer

day on bets, one man offering to bet $3.50
to $500 on Brewers election. 1t is said
some money was wagered here on the con-

siderably benefited by rains recently.
Cotton upon the whole is doing very well.
No insects of any kind have appeared

SOUTH DAKOTA

RAPID CITY, S. D., Aug. 26.-By out
bidding the l.. 7 outfit which for ten
years has held the land under lease,
Nelson Morris, the Chicago packer, has
secured control of one of the largest
tracts of cattle grazing lands in the
northwest.
This land is on the Standing Rock In
dian reservation, northeast of here, and
is fenced. The l.. outfit has had large
herds of cattle there for years, but Nell
son Morris intends to increase the num-
ber. 1t is the first instance where Nor
ris has fed his cattle in the north. The
pasture is particularly desirable for the
reason that it is we'll watered, near the
open trail to Evarts and there is no
trouble from outsiders coming on the
range 1t consists Of over 10000 acres
of land.
Morris and the l.. people both bid for
the lease, the former securing 1t by
fraction of cent per acre.
c. II. Hardy OF Hulett, Wyo,, is in
charge, of the new lease for Morris, who
has already shipped in from Texas over
5000 head of cattle, and more are to come
during the fall.

II Is not renewed by the present holder
the fences amounting to string of over
800 miles, revert to the Indians.

HOT SPRINGS, Ark, Aug. 26.-The
report that r. A. Chitwood, who was
found wandering in ST. Louis, was kid
naped, bound and gagged, was received
at police headquarters here. 1t pre-
cipitated much comment in police circles.
Chitwood was under a bond of $4,000
pending his trial in the federal court
on the charge of perjury in connection
with his trial for alleged theft of letters
while he was clerk in the local post
office. He has been employed for some
time as clerk in a local store. Various
theories have been advanced as to why
he was kidnapped, If such was the case.

officers desired to get him out of the
way for fear that his testimony in his
coming trial would incriminate them

NEBRASKA

LINCOLN, Neb., Aug. 26-On the
ground that the movement is in the in
terest of the corporations Governor
Sheldon has declined to appoint dele
gates to a national convention called at
st. Louis of business men to recommend
amendments to the state and national
constitutions in the hope of harmonizing
federal and state, jurisdictions and au-
thority. The call cites the North Caro-
lira conflict as evidence of an approach
to the danger line.
Three registered mail sacks containing
a sum said to be large. disappeared be-
tween Denver and Oxford, Neb. some
time ago and the postoffice officials have
just made the theft public. The train
left Denver with seven sacks and but
four remained when it was discovered.
Detectives and postoffice officials are at
work on the case. According to reports
made to railway postal officials in Lin
coin the amount of money stolen was
not $25O,00O, as at first rumored, or any
thing like that sum, but the authorities
refuse to say just what the amount Is.
That some money is missing and that 1t
disappeared at or near Oxford, Neb., is
not denied.
