The pertinence of the foregoing is
very evident in the face of a rumor or
boast, that Earl Brewer will carry Nox-
ubee for governor.
1t is a notable omission in the "Ad-
dress to the People of Mississippi"
from Mr.. Brewers campaign commit
tee so widely scattered throughout
Noxubee county, that neither the fol-
lowing plank, or phrase, or any mention
of it, is made. The following is copied
verbatim from the signed platform of
Mr. Brewer:
81 shall recommend the passage of
such laws as will give proper and
equitable distribution of the school
funds among the several counties of the
state-that is to say ! shall advocate
pro rating the school fund among the
respective counties according to the
qualified electorate instead of pro rat
ing according to the number Of educa-
BILE children in each.
A very few figures will show how
terribly against our county the measure
Mr.. Brewer champions, will be. There
is certain sum divided among all the
counties of the state for educational
purposes. At present it is distributed
according to the number Of educable
children in each county, surely fair
basis of division. Taking an adjoining
county, Winston, for example, anC
compare it with Noxubee, we find that
Noxubee, with population of 80, S4t
receives $27,2
Winston, with population of IA, ~
receives $13,696.
Under the pro-rating, favored by Mr.
Brewer, which makes the voting
strength of county the basis of thu
appropriation for educating the chill
dren of the county
Winston having about 1900 vote
would get about $4,000.
Noxubee having about 100 votes
would get about $1,000.
OF course these figures are not exact
as the change being made all over thu
state, the aggregate amount now re
ceived by the two counties would b,
changed. But the proportion is correct
Whereas now we get So to Winston.
81, then we will receive less than 4
cents for every dollar Winston will get.
Noxubee's school fund might not ever
reach the sum of SIS, 900 inplace of hel
present s27, 233. 1t certainly would moi
much exceed that sum.
Lct every man in Noxubee who has .
child to educate ponder on these figures
But Mr.. Brewers friends may say
that as governor he will have no power
to change the distribution of the school
fund. Don't believe that. The change
in representation and in the apportion-
ment Of the school fund, is the -
question in Mississippi. =" I'd

For weak, WORKOUT, Over-wOrked wOfn-
emo matter what has caused the
break down, "Favorite Prescription"
will be found most effective in building
up the strength, regulating the womanly
functions, subduing pain and bringing
about healthy, strong, vigorous con-
dition of the whole system.
DR.. Pierce believes that our American
forests abound in most valuable medi-
cinal roots for the cure of most of our
obstinate and most fatal diseases, il we
would properly investigate them; and,
in confirmation of this firm conviction,
he points with pride to the almost mar
velous cures effected by his "Golden
Medical Discovery" which has proven
itself to be the most efficient stomach
tonic, liver invigorator, heart tonic and
regulator, and blood cleanser known to
medical science. Not less marvellous,
in the unparalleled cures 1t is constantly
making OF woman's many peculiar affec-
tons, weakness and distressing derange-
ments, is DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton, as Is amply attested by thousands
of unsolicited testimonials contributed
by grateful patients who have been
cured by it OF leucorrhea, painful
other displacements, liberation of uterus
and kindred affections, often after many
other advertised medicines had failed.
Both these world-famed medicines
are wholly made up from the glyceric
extracts of native, medicinal roots,
found in our American forests. The
processes employed In their manu-
lacture were original with DR.. Pierce.
and they are carried on by skilled chem
lists and pharmacists with the aid of
apparatus and appliances specially
designed and built for this purpose.
Both medicines are entirely free from
alcohol and all other harmful, habit
forming drugs. What Is said of their
power to cure the several diseases for
which they are advised may be easily
learned bv sending your name and
address to DR.. X. V. Pierce, Buffalo,
n. y, for little booklet which he has
compiled. containing copious extracts
from numerous standard medical books,
which are consulted as authorities by
physicians of the several schools of
practice for their guidance in prescrib-
Ing. 1t is FREE TO ALL. A postal card

DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cure
constipation. Constipation is the cause
of many diseases. Cure the cause and
you cure the disease. One "Pellet" is
gentle laxative, and two q mild ca
thartic. Druggists sell them, and
nothing is "just as good" They are the
original Little Liver Pills first put up by
old DR.. Pierce. over 40 years ago.

DR.. Pierce's medicines. however, form
q single and therefore striking exception
70 the above rule. Their claim to the
confidence of invalids does not rest
solely upon their owners and makers
say-so or praise. Their ingredients are
matters of public knowledge. being
printed on each separate bottle-wrap-
per. Thus invalid sufferers are taken
into DR.. Pierce's full confidence. Scores
of leading medical men have written
enough to fill volumes in praise OF the
curative value of the several Ingredients
entering into these WELL known med
icines.
In favor of DR.. Pierce's medicines is
the frank, confiding, open, honest state
ment of their full composition, giving
every ingredient IN PLAIN English, with
out fear of successful criticism and with
confidence that the good sense of the
afflicted will lead them to appreciate
this honorable manner OF confiding to
them what they are taking into their
stomachs when making use of these
medicines.
WHAT THEY CURE. People often
ask "What do DR.. Pierce's two leading
medicines-'Golden Medical Discovery
and 'Favorite Prescription cure?"
Briefly, the answer Is that "Golden
Medical Discovery" Is most potent al
terative, or blood purifier, and tonic, or
invigorator, and acts especially favor:
ably in q curative way upon all the
mucous lining surfaces, rs of the nasal
passages, throat, bronchial tubes, stom-
ach, bowels and bladder curing a large
percentage of catarrhal cases whether
the disease affects the nasal passages,
the throat, larynx. bronchia, stomach
Gas catarrhal dyspepsia), bowels as
mucous diarrhea), bladder, uterus or
other pelvic organs. Even in the chronic
or Lucrative stages of these affections,
It is generally successful in affecting
cures. In fact the "Golden Medical
Discovery" is without doubt, the most
successful constitutional remedy for all
forms of catarrhal diseases known to
modern medical science. In Chronic
Nasal Catarrh DR.. Sage's Catarrh Rem
edy fluid should be used for washing
and cleansing out the nasal passages
while taking the uDiscovery" for its
blood cleansing and specific, healing
effects upon the mucous lining MEM
branes. This combined local and gen.
eral treatment will cure very large
percentage Of the worst cases of chronic
nasal catarrh, no matter of how many
years standing they may be.
As to the rFavorite Prescription it
Is advised for the cure of one class OF
diseases only-those weaknesses, de-
rangementa and irregularities peculiar
