Its narne--~GOlden 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,
trlple-refned glycerine, aided BY cer-
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-
diclnal roots their curative properties
much better than by the use Of alcohol,
90 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
Il 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-wrappe
will show that II IL 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-
peFts, teachers and writers on M0te1f0
dedtcG who recommend them as the very
best remedies for the diseases for which
SGOlden Medical Discovery" is advised.
A little book Of these endorsements has
been compiled by DIR. r. V. Pierce, OF
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
emit schools OF practice, 1t will be found
that the ingredients composing the Gold
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, If not promptly and
properly treated are liable to terminate
in consumption. Take DIR. Pierce's Dis
covery in time and persevere in its use
until you give 1t a fair trial and it is not
likely to disappoint. Too much must not
be expected OF it. 1t will not perform
miracles. 1t will not cure consumption
in its advanced stages. No medicine will.
1t tOtlL cure the affections that lead up to
consumption, If taken IN time.

s1ittIe Wolff a Sioux Indian Chief
Riding His Bronco From
Chicago TO Washington.

Norfolk. Va.-Among all the shows
on the War Path at the jamestown
Exposition on Hampton Roads. near
Norfolk. Virginia. il may be safely said
that while all are good. none will excel
the "1O1 Ranch" Wild West Show.
Much has been written and said Of
this wonderful Western production on
the shores Of famous Hampton Roads,
but the half has not been told, nor could
ii be comprehended if told. Thrust be
seen to be appreciated. To bring the
push. vim, and daredevil escapades Of
the plains into the midst Of the staid
old aristocratic East, and show them as
they are beyond the Mississippi. is in
itself daring feat.
By way Of further exploiting this
Wild West Show, Little Wolf" full
blood Sioux Indian chief, left Chicago
on Monday morning May 5th and is
now riding to Washington to extend a
personal invitation to President Roose-
welt to be present at the opening Of the
"101 Ranch" Wild West Show on the
afternoon Of May 10Th.
There is no wager on the ride, nor
are there any particular plans or rules
laid down BY which the Indian is to
ride or abide. He is simply to make
the ride from Chicago to Washington
City on his bronco, to meet the Presi-
dent and extend the invitation. OF
course, being arrayed in the usual par
aphernalia Of an Indian chief, he will
attract no little attention en- route.
Colossal in size and interesting and
thrilling from start to finish is the great
"101 Ranch Wild West Show" the
C. w. Rex Company has provided a
field at the grounds that is the size Of
two city blocks, so that there will be
plenty Of room in which to give this
magnificent exhibition.
An arena to seat $4,000 people is a
pretty big one, but this is the capacity of
grand stand and bleachers of the lot on
Commonwealth avenue west, opposite
the Lee Parade grounds, where three
performances will be given each day,
rain or shine, at 2, S, aud 8:45 o'clck.
The great buffalo chase is just one
Of the fifty or more features with the
big show. Five hundred cowboys,
cowgirls, Indians and Mexicans en-
gage in this chase.

BELLS or OLD HOLLAND.
Ancient Chimes That Have Delighted
the Dutch for Centuries.

From the earliest times the people
Of the Netherlands have so greatly
loved their bells and chimes that the
architecture of their belfries and
steepIes, shows marked traces OF 1t.
Most of these are of open-work de-
sign, so that the bells might be heard
IN the widest circumference, writes
The Hague correspondent of the Chi
cago Daily News. Beautiful examples
of this style can be seen in the cathe-
dral towers of Utrecht and Delft. Sew
eral of the smaller towns possess even
finer specimens, either in their church
spires OF in the belfries of watch tow
ers. Like the well-known belfry OF
Monnikendam, these towers generally
stood in the principal squares. The
bells were tolled in case of danger, to
alarm the burghers, or to call them
together for important communities
tions. Such tower is that of Bruges,
of which LOngfellow sings:
In the market place Of Bruges
Stands the belfry, old and brown,
Thrice destroyed and thrice rebuilded,
Still it watches DER the town.
In Holland there is scarcely a place
of Importance that does not have one
or more towers with chimes. The
tunes of these are changed once or
twice year, generally on New Years
day. This is so ct The Hague and
Utrecht. Some places, however, are
not content with this and have the
tunes changed oftener. 1t is on rec
ord that in one town, which had fine
carlton cast by the famous Hemony
in 1877, 1t was decreed that the tunes
should be changed every fortnight or
at least once a month, so fond were
the burghers of their bellsl
In time when clocks were by no
means general the church bells were
the timekeepers for the burghers. The
heavier ben struck the hours and the
lighter bell the half hours. II these
were chimes they played tune at
noon and another at midnight, while
before the stroke of the hour or d.
vision OF the hour part Of the tune
would be played.
The inscriptions on the bells are
generally in rhyme and made to read
as if the bell itself is telling its name
and the history of its making. Hol-
land still possesses many of these
ancient bells, notably in the province
Of Friesland. The earliest authenti-
Gated bell is that of Krommenie, cast
in 1896 by Rodolphus de Montigny.
Most bells now in existence were,
however, cast in the fifteenth six
teenth or seventeenth centuries.
The reformation brought a change
IN the naming of bells. The Catholic
saints were forsalxen, and only Bibli-
cal or worldly names were allowed,
while the inscription also breathed
other views, as can be seen by COM
pairing the bells cast in the seven
teenth century with those Of earlier
date Those on the older bells have
4 purely religious significance, while
| Tie later ones refer To worldly sub
| iects, as, for instance, the famous bell
(, ats Ham. which recounts IN It's IN.

to show for his authority in the
matter except some letters which of
fered him a position as civil engineer
with the proposed new line, but little
faith was evidenced in the good which
he could accomplish for Carlsbad.
However, E. P. Bujac and w. H. Null

Mr.. Bujac, Mr.. Brice and other of
u citizens had every faith in the
enterprise and Mr.. Edwards ability
to e that the proposed new road
would come by Carlsbad, and have
mad no little correspondence in regard
to the matter, especially with Mr.. Ed
wards. Yesterday Mr.. Bujac received
the following telegram from the vice

which will be of interest, as it shows
