What Do They Cure!

The above question Is often asked con corning Dr. Pierce's two leading medi. ] cines, TGolden Medical Discovery and sFavorite Prescription.'
 The answer is that uGolden Medical Discovery r is a most potent alternative or blood-puritier, and tonic or invigorator and acts especially favorably In cura- tive way upon all tho mucous lining sur- faces, as of the nasal passages, throat. broy ychial tubes, stomach. bowels and blaldeq>curing a large per cent. of catar- rhal cakes whether Sbe disease affects the nasal passages, the NxQat, larynx, bron- sSia: stomach }ne as estSsS, dysBePssdis SgPsda1 uterus or other pelvic orgarsS Even in the chronic -nlceratlYe stages ni iheSa afiecfiols. u is often successful In affect GT6e SFayorIts- Presentation.

 The words of praise bestowed on tho several ingredients entering Into Doctor Pierce's medicines by such writers 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 a substitute for one of these medicines of known composition, any secret nOstrum.

A SURFEIT OF BIDS.
Cazal Loan Bonds are Many Times Over
subscribed and Allotments
Will Be Delayed.

A Washington special says: The
opening of the bids for the issue of
$4,000, 900 Panama canal bonds, which
was begun at 4:SO o'clock Saturday
afternoon, was not concluded until
nearly 10 o'clock, when Secretary Cor
telyou made the following announce
ment
THE bids for the $50,0O0,00O of Pana-
ma canal bonds, invited by the secre-
tRry's circular of November Is, were
opened this evening i'll the treasury de-
partment. There were more than
three thousand bids, and the loan was
many times oversubscribed. No COM
plete tabulation has been possible as
yet, but it can be stated that the aver
age price is we'll above the present
market price of the bonds. Owing to
the large number Of bids to be con-
sidered it will be impracticable to
make an allotment Immediately, but
the secretary will be prepared to give
further information on Monday
The secretary explained that there
was such a large number of bids that
to make any deductions as to the low
est price at which the bonds would
be awarded was manifestly impossible
at this time. AS in all bond issues,
there were no doubt considerable
number which were made for consid-
cradle amounts by irresponsible par
ties, who hoped, il successful, to be
able to sell their awards at profit,
and these suspicious cases would have
to be looked into before final awards
were made.
The successful price Of the present
issue will, it is expected, be consid-
erably in excess of 1872 and possibly
above 103.
Among the bidders was the National
City Bank of New York, which submit
ted number of bids, aggregating So
100000 at prices ranging from 101 1-8
to 1913 1t is also understood that the
First National Bank of Chicafo, bid
for large amount of bonds at some
thing in excess of 101.
Under the secretary's circular of No
vember is these bonds will bear inter-
est at the rate of 2 per cest per an
uum, payable quarterly on the first
days of November, February, May and
August They will be redeemable n
United States gold coin at the pleas
ure of the United States on and after
August 1, 1915, and will be payable
August l, 1886. The secretary reserves
The right to permit bidders offering
the highest prices to increase the
amount Of their purchases.

Colonel C. P. Goodyear Of Brunswick
has written long letter to Senator
Francis G. Newlands, vice president
of the inland waterways commission,
in advocacy of the proposed canal from
the Georgia coast to the Tennessee
river.
Colonel Goodyear's plan contem-
plates utilization of the Altamaha and
Ocmulgee rivers to Macon, canal to
Atlanta, thence to point near Car
tersville on the Etowah, thence by the
Etowah and Coosa rivers to Gadsden,
Ala. to connect with the Tennessee
river at Chattanooga by a canal over
Sand mountain.
This would connect the Atlantic
coast with SO tributaries of the Mis-
sissippi, linking more than $4,000 miles
of riverways to the heart of the coun-
try. This route would be more than
200 miles in length, and the estimated
cost is s4O,OOOOOO.
