Verdict for DR.. Pierce
AGAINST THE

Sending truth after a lie. 1t is an old
maxim that "a lie will travel seven
leagues while truth IS getting its boots
on" and no doubt hundreds OF thousands
OF good people read the unwarranted and
malicious attack upon DR.. K. V. Pierce
and his "FavOrite Prescription published
in the May (l904) number Of the Ladies
Home journal, with its great black dis-
play headings, who never saw the num-
BILE, groveling retraction, with its neon
spicuous heading, published two months
later. 1t was boldly charged in the sland-
erous and libelous article that DE-. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription, for the cure OF
woman's weaknesses and ailments, con-
fained alcohol and other harmful ingredi-
ents. DR.. Pierce promptly brought suit
against the publishers of the Ladies
Home Journal, for S2O0,OOOO0 damages.
DR.. Pierce alleged that Mr.. Box, the
editor, maliciously published the article
containing such false and defamatory
matter witH the intent OF injuring his
busInessSfurthermor that no alcohol, or
other Injurious. or habit-forming, drugs
