What Do They Cure?

The above question is often asked con-
corning DR.. Pierce's two leading medi-
cineS, rGolden Medical Discovery" and
UFavorite Prescription"
The answer is that "Golden Medical
Discovery is most potent Alternative or
blood-puritier, and tonic or tnylgorator

tive way upon all the mucous lining sur

giving the formula of both medicines and
quoting what scores of eminent med
zeal authors, whose works are consulted
by physicians of all the schools of practice
as guides in prescribing, say OF each in
gredicnt entering into these medicines.
The words of praise bestowed .on the
several ingredients entering into Doctor
Pierce's medicines by such writer's 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-alcoholic, non
secret, and contain no harmful habit
forming drugs, being composed of glyceric
extracts of the roots of native, American
medicinal forest plants. They are both
sold by dealers in medicine. You can't
afford to accept as substitute for one OF
these medicines of known composition,

Troops Out of Manehuria.

The last vestige of war in Manchuria
has now been removed, the Russian
and Japanese troops having completed
their evacuation of that section of the
Chinese empire last Monday. All mill
tary movements have ceased, and the
Manchurian towns have been turned
over to the Chinese authorities. China
has written to Japan expressing her
appreciation of the withdrawal of the
Japanese troops and giving assurance
of the reorganization of the Manchu-
rian provinces. April - was the eX-
piration Of the eighteen months limit
for the evacuation of Manchuria, ac-
cording to the treaty of Portsmouth

last week from Commander Doyle of

Ash BURNING Secret Out.

ASH Burning oecret CUT.
The secret formula employed by John
Fillmore. the cobbler of Altoona, Pa,
in making his liquid for the burning
of coal ashes has been found out by
the chemists. 1t is one pound of com
mon salt in one gallon of water mixed
with two ounces of oXalic acid. If this
mixture is used to moisten three parts
ashes to one part coal the mass is said
to burn with greater heat than that of
pure coal AS n consequence ashes at
Altoona are at Il premium.

According to This View His Lot Is Not
a Happy One.
Who is the most envied and bedia'
monded among men? The hotel clerk
Who runs away with our heiressesi
The hotel clerk. Who gets the straight
est tips on the stock market? The no.
tel clerk. Whose pride goeth not be-
fore destruction and whose glory Is
never dimmed? The hotel clerks. So
runs the accepted catechism.
Now truth seeker In Chicago rises
TO say that the average hotel clerk s
chance in life is q trife less than moth
ing. He can't nWrry, for he is COM
PEELED to live in the hotel, and his
wages won't pay his wife's board.
Even as a bachelor he finds it hard to
save money. When he reaches the
age limit-not q high One-he is dis
placed by young man.
There are then three things for him.
He may become night clerk in coun-
try hotel, q Job that he rose from years
before; he may be put in charge of q
clOakroom and look to tips for most Of
his pay or he may try TO get other
work using up his savings meanwhile,
and end his life in the almshouse. Not

with a speech of welcome, suggesting
subjects Of discussion, such as prefer
entail trade, a permanent council. de-
Tense. immigration, penny postage, etc.
Or. jameson, as premier of Cape
Colony, expressed the hope that at the
next conference one man would stand
for united South African govern
ment. General Botha, the Transvaal
premier, was much lionized, and at a
reception in his honor his former foe,
Lord Roberts, almost embraced him.
The Boer leader again pledged his de-

Biggest BattIeship Launched.
The Japanese battleship Aki, which
has Just been launched successfully at
Kure, Japan, outclasses the British
Dreadnought and gives Japan the cred
ii Of having the largest battleship in
the world. The Aki is 400 fSSt long,
S31h wide, has 1880 tons displacement
and turbine engines of $4,000 horse
power, expected to give her speed of
twenty-one and one-half knots. She
has three tunnels and an armOr belt
nine and one-half inches thick. Her
armament includes four twelve-inch,
twelve ten-inch and eight siX-inch guns.
She was designed and constructed eX-
clusively by Japanese, the net time Of
her construction being only eight
months.
EngIand's Giant Cruiser.
The new British armored cruiser In
vincible was launched from the Els
wick shipyard This is one Of trio
of the largest cruisers in the world, the
first Of which, the Indomitable, was
launched March 1G. The dimensions
Of these two vessels are alike-namely,
1880 tons, length $50 feet They are
equipped with turbine engines and ex-
pected to attain a speed of twenty-five
knots an hour.
Old Age Pensions Provided.
In the house OF commons Chancellor
Asquith submitted a budget statement
showing year Of unusual prosperity,
with a reduction of the national debt
and surplus of nearly $27,000,000.
He proposes to provide relief from the
burden of the income tax by having
earned incomes below $4,000 be less
by 6 cents for every pound sterling.
To equalze this he proposes an in
crease on the death duties of large
fortunes. The old age pension scheme
is set to go into effect next year, and
$7,500,000 is set aside for that pur-
pose. Intense interest was shown in
this budget throughout the country.

To Pay Women Teachers More.

o ray women teSCnSTS WOTes
The New York state senate has pass
ed the teachers salary bill, the object
of which is to give the women the
same salaries as the men in New York
city schools. 1t is based upon the
principle that the position should de-
termine the salaries and not the sex,
but gives the city board Of education
discretionary powers so as not to viO-
late the home rule principle. 1t pro-
vides for a minimum salary of $500,
with fixed annual increases equal for
both sexes.
PreceptoriaI System Good.
Dean Fine of Princeton reports that
fifty eight students were dropped at
the end of the first term as against
seventy-one last year and regards this,
together with the small nsmber of fail
ures among the freshmen, as proof of
the success of the preceptorial system,
by virtue of which students receive in
dividual attention from instructors
somewhat on the English university
plan. The dean says that the system
was effective from the very start in its
main purpose-namely, 1.-The promotion
of the course of learning among the I'M
dergraduates in general"-and he adds
that the. most careless students who
at first objected to the requirement of
work in term time are beginning to re-
spond to its influence.
