Burch, Walter Audrain County.
St, Lonis Post Dispatch.

Although only 2S and one OF the
Youngest members of the House,
Burch is serving his second term in
the Legislature. AS chairman or the
Committee on Appropriations, he
has the delightful task Of spending
other people money. He is one Of the
Speakers cabinet, an association of
strong men who share with that
dignitary all the blame for his failure
to make two appointments where
there was only one before. Burch ad-
mits his popularity with the ladies,
and they all hate to think what JEFF
ferson City would he without him. He
will gladly vacate his seat to talk to a
young lady. Up in Audrain County
a lot of politicians have tried TO get
him to vacate for one Of them, but he
is not kind to men. Burch is a law.

usefulness.

That Is part Of the statement of one
woman, mother of six children, who
found new life by the use of DR.. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription. 1t Is not the or
binary cares Of the family, nor the natu-
raj obligations of motherhood, which
make women prematurely old. But it Is
the womanly diseases, draining away the
vitality, and undermining the str -th,
which take the roundness and supple
ness from the form, the bloom from the
cheek and the brightness from the eye.
DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescription cures
those womanly diseases which rob women
of youth and beauty. It establishes reg
ularity, dries enfeebling drains, heals
inflammation and liberation, and cures
female weakness. 1t makes weak women
strong and sick women well. It brings
back to the mother the lightheartedness
of her bridal day. This IS the testimony
of thousands of women who have re-
uewed their youth by the use of cFa-
vorite Prescription
