Verdict for Dr. Pierce
 AGAINST THE Ladies' Home Journal.

Sending truth after a lie. It is an old maxim that "a lie will travel seven leagues while truth Is getting it's boots on," and no doubt hundreds of thousands of good people read the unwarranted ard malicious attack upon Dr. R. V. Pierce and his ~Favorite Prescription published in the May Q90D number of the Ladies Home Journal, with its great black dis play headings, who never saw the hum ble, groyeling retraction, with Its incon- sp!cuous heading, published two months later. It twas boldly charged in the sland- erous and libelous article that Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, for the cure of woman's weaknesses and ailments, con tained alcohol and other harmful ingredi- ents. Dr. Pierce promptly brought suit against the publishers of the Ladies' Home Journal, for s200, ,00O,Oo damages.
 Dr. Pierce alleged that MT. Box. the editor, maliciously published the article containing such fAlse and defamstory matter wftE the intent of iniuring his sincss<furthermore. that no alcohol. or other HjuGous. or hablt-formins, drugs are. or Vrer were. contained in his "Fa- vorite IFesfipt!on-; that said medicine Is madI f26m native medicinal roots and contaXs/no harmful ingredients what eveIaId that Mir.

In closing Mr.. StreliJz quoted the
beautiful ending lines of ''rhana-
topsis
The Influence which the teachings
of Christ has had upon the world
was dwelt upon by Miss Marianne
Renicke. In her well delivered ora
tion, "The Influence Of Christianity
Miss Reinicke said that this Influence
has done more than ary other to up
lift mankind in general, 90 remove
corruption and debauchery, and &c
purify nations and peoples.
And now, mora than ever before,
Is the presence of Christ felt, Miss
Reinicke said. His following grows
continually and With tins increase in
the number or followers, grows love
for the Savior and aspect for His
precepts.
The Savior taught peace and love,
land all who seek to emulate Him
must seek to love and help their
fellow man. To be follower Of
Christ is to have a greet help in all
Undertakings, to lave al eyer-present
inspiration in all that we do.

Intelligence to possess an ideal. II

allowed 10 vanish. neglected It leaves
life dark and dreary. These we're
thoughts brought out by Miss Eliza
Dickerson in an Interesting oratiCn
on "Value of An Ideal" The God
Of every nation IS its ideal. Even the
mere child loves its mother with n
devotion that makes her It's ideal.
The speaker said we should let
the child build air castles at his will
and as he grows to manhood let him
take this idealism with him. IL Is
the time of manhood that the need OF
true ideals is more u gent, the time
when something is needed to keep ut
looking upward.
The number and kind Of ideals de-
termines a mans place in life. Once
our brightest ideal is gone, the dark,
mass Of life Is blacker than before
Ideals redeem a life from drudgery

so sweet as dreams. Vision JI
ideals serve to give men new hope;
they are mans greatest help. IN

Talked Them Into Prison.

"About 80 years ago Henry Clay
Dean, the eccentric Missouri lawyer
and orator, was attending term OF
court at which l was defending a
man on pretty serious charge" said
Judge Risdon of Kirksville the other
day to a Kansas City Star writer
Two horse thieves that were in Jail
sent for Dean. He took their case,
and after looking at it from all sides
concluded the best thing for them to
do was to plead guilty and take two
years each.
"His men baked at the idea of
pleading guilty. He told them that
the penitentiary wasn't bad sort of
place; he had been all through it and
knew The warden-a personal friend
of mine-is one of the kindest men
that ever lived said Dean; he never

BiIl-used to run a little sawmin over
in the corner of Putnam county, they
sent him up for-er-borrowing corn.
When he went there he didn't weigh

he weighed 800 pounds avoirdupois.
and was made captain of the guard
just getting along fine; said he
wouldn't swap his job for any other
in Missouri and wrote his folks to
come down and live with him. The
prison can't hurt anything but your
reputation and what does fellow
who's been stealing care about repu-
tations, anyway
The two horse thieves by this time
were dead anxious to plead guilty and
begin life in the pen. More than
that, all the other fellows in the Jail
who had heard Deans talk insisted on
pleading guilty and going along"

CRITICAL MOMENT.
When John Wanted the Ring II Was
In His Sock.

John Jenkinson would not have ex-
changed situations with the prime min.
lister, the prince Of Wales or the drum
major of brass band.
Felicia Wilkins had answered Yes"
In a voice as soft and gentle as the
sigh OF music in a dreamless sleep or
the murmuring wall of a caressing
breeze from lethean waters soothingly
tanning the whiskers Of Father Time.
"Felicit Wilkins" he exclaimed rap
turously, as his left hand and arm
disappeared from sight with a rapid
yet sneaking motion toward the back
OF the sofa on which they sat, and
the fingers of his right hand appear.
ed to be feeling for something in his
vest pocket, you have made me the
happiest man in the world"
The timid, upturned glance of heI
liquid dark eyes, says Tit-Bits, and the
warm blush that overspread the happy
face OF the lovely girl replied more
eloquently than words could have
done"
And you will forgive my presump
tion, darling" he continued, IF, in an
ticipation of your answer, l have ven
tured to provide myself with-with-

Jenkinson paused in some apparent
excitement, and his finger and thumb
nervously explored his vest pockel
without seeming to find anything.

Felicia, it was a ring! Ha! Perhap,
it is in some other pocket"
Rising to his feet he thrust &
trembling hand into his trouseri
pocket.

Yes" exclaimed John, in a hollow
voice. Felicia, think I know where

The Browns Turned us Down.

We are informed =. -, Brown
Shoe Company will not locate a
branch factory here.
The committee of the CONNER
cial Club and the public spirited
citizens of the city and vicinity
deserve great credit for the effort
they put forth to secure the shoe
factory, and they deserved success
but the mark was set to high.
The best, the very best Montgom-
cry could do, it seems was to raise
S34, 900. This amount was offered
the Brown Shoe Company and
they refused to accept it. Nothing
less than the amount required
would do them. So we do not
have shoe factory.

The marriage was consummated
in the Compton Hill Congregation
al church in St. Louis by Rev.
Jacob Meeker.
The bride was visiting in St.
Louis at the time of the wedding,
and the only guests at the wedding
were Mr.. and Mrs. Phillips and
Miss Vandiver of that city.
The bride and groom returned
to this city where they received
the hearty congratulations of their
many friends and they are now
domiciled at the county Jail, with
the keys in their possession and
may go and come at will.
The wedding gives the county a
new officer in asheriff's helpmate.
Mr.. Earnest has already proved
himself to be an efficient officer,
but we may even expect more oi
him in the future. His excellent
little daughter, Miss Belle, who
has been in charge when Mr..
Earnest was away on business,
can now feel safer as the youngest
jailer perhaps in northeast Mis-
souri,.
So here is to long and happy
journey for Mr.. and Mrs. George
