What Do They Cure?

The above question is often asked con-
cerning DR.. Pierce'S two leading medi-
cines, "Golden Medical Discovery" and
"Favorite Prescription"
The answer is that Golden Medical
Discovery" is a most potent Alternative or
blood-purifer, and tonic or inVigOratOr
and acts especially favorably in 4 cura-
tive 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 catar-
rhal cases whether the disease affects the
nasal passages, the throat, larynX, bron-
CHA, stomach as catarrhal dyspepsia). }.

uterus or other pelvic organs. Even IN
the chronic 9T ulceratiYe stages OF these
affections, it is often successful in affect
ing cures
The "Fayorite Prescription is advised
for the cure of one class Of diSeaSeS-thOse
peculiar weaknesses, arrangements and
Irregularities incident to women only. It
is powerful yet gently acting inyigorat-
ing tonic and neryine. For weak Worn

Prescription will be found most effective
In building up the strength, regulating
the WOmanly functions, subdulng pain
and bringing about healthy, vigorous
condition of the whole system.
A book of particulars wraps each bottle
giving the formul@ of both medicines and
quoting what scores of eminent med
ical authors, whose works are consulted
by physicians of all the schools of practice
as guides in prescribing, say of each in
gredient entering into these medicines.
The words of praise bestowed on the
several ingredients entering into Doctor
Pierce's medicines by such writers should
have more weight than any amount OF
non professional testimonials, because
such men are writing for the guidance Of
their medical brethren and know whereof
they speak.
Both medicines are non-aleoholic, non
Secret and contain no harmful labit-
forming drugs, being composed Of glyceric
extracts of the roots Of native, American
medicinal forest plants They are both

these medicines of known composition,

SUPREME COURT ORANGES

I.eslie's Weekly has an interesting
article on the changes in the supreme
our on the appointments that nave
been made by President Roosevelt
and those that are still TO come, in
the course OF which that journal
says: .'Of the nine members of the
supreme court President Roosevelt
has appointed three-Associatc Jus
tees Holmes, Day and Moody. Chief
Justice Fuller and Associate Justice
Harlan are each u years of age and
can retire at any time on full pay.
In 1908 Associate Justice Peckham
will be 20 and will be in a position
to step down without losing any OF
his salary. Rumor has recently been
saving that each of these is soon to
retire. These and three other mem
bers of the present tribunal We're
there when President Roosevelt en-
tered office. If the seats of any two
of these six persons should be va
Gated for any cause within the next
two years a majority of the supreme

of the present presidential term,
would be Roosevelt's selections. This
would break all the presidents, ex-
cept in the case of Washington, with

president Roosevelt is a CONSOLE

swing to the strong central govern

is probably the present executives
desire, following the custom of all
his predecessors, to put men OF his
own way of thinking on the bench,
SO far as he can do this without en-
tirely obliterating the opposite party.
The chances are that Mr. Roosevelt
will be able to talk through the SUI

even more frequently and more po-
tently than federalism talked
through the court during the first
third of the nineteenth century

CRAWFORD ". kIrTREDGE.

Huron. S d., Huronite. Mr.. Craw-
ford is very unfortunate in the selec-
ton of spokesman TO announce his
candidacy for the United States sem
a%torship. En- route TO Sioux City SEN
ator Gamble announced that Mr..
Crawford would be a candidate for
the senate to succeed Senator Kilt
.redge. The announcement, coming
from Gamble. received seant indorse-
ment OF the principal, who stated
that he had nothing to say concern
ing his candidacy. Mr.. Gamble, how
ever, spoke with the knowledge of
the governor, and it may be consider
ed as settled now that the two lead
ing candidates for United States sen
ate from this state will be Crawford
and kittredge. If the stalwarts yer
choosing Mr.. Kittredge's opponent
they would have selected the man
whose candidacy Mr.. Gamble an
nounced. 1t is the prevailing opinion
that Mr.. Crawford would be a hard
man to defeat for governor, but that
as a candidate for senator he has
undertaken a bigger job than he can
finish. Mr.. Kittredge will make the
race upon his record. His friends will
appeal to the voters of the state to
settle the contest on this issue. They
will ask that his record be closely
scrutinized and if any flaws are
found In it to point them out. The
state is ably represented in the sen
ate by Mr.. kittredge. He brings to
his duties a we'll trained mind, the
experience of nearly eight years in
the senate. a standing in that body
surpassed by none of his colleagues,
a reputation for honesty of purpose
and hard unselfish work for his con
s%tituents, a knowledge of national al
fiars which gives him great prestige
in shaping legislation. The people of
this state are beginning to know
these things and they are going TO
support his candidacy for reelection
regardless of personal ambitions or
the desire on the part of Gamble for
revenge. The voters of this state will
recognize merit and ability and will
show this at the primaries by in
structing the legislature to return tic
the senate the honest, rugged Kilt
redge.

It's a quiet day when there is not
a new issue sprung in the politics
of South Dakota. Last summer it
was the stone issue-as to what kind
of stone was to be used in the cap
itol NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. a home pro-
duet or that imported from Indiana.
The insurgent wing made a fight for
the home stone, for the purpose OF
carrying Minnehaha county. The
stalwarts did not take any hand in
the stone issue-it was a matter
which alone concerned the capitol
commission. But the insurgents
were going to have home stone in
the building. 1t was a spasmodic
effort, however, and after the insur-
gents o out they dropped the stone
issue and let the commission select
the stone which would be the cheap
est to build the capitol building. Now
it is the "snub ISSUE" wherein Gov
ernor Crawford and Senator Gamble
were not invited to sit at the table
of Senator Kittredge when he was
entertaining Secretary Taft and a
few friends at a private breakfast
Iparty, although these gentlemen
knew that such a private party was
to be on long before they went to
Sioux Falls. 1t is a mighty small is
sue for a couple of dignifed gentle
men to use as an issue against the
reelection of a United States sena-
tor, and also a very small one on
| which to bring out a candidate fol-
the senate, as did Senator Gamble
when he announced right after the
incident that Governor Crawford
would be a candidate for the place
of Senator Kittredge. Spare us from
any further issues of that character
