Not a drop of alcohol enters into
DR.. Pierce's leading medicines. A
much better agent is used both for
extracting and preserving the me-
dicinal principles, viz.-pure triple
refined glycerine of proper strength.
This agent possesses medicinal
properties of its own, being most
valuable anti-septic and anti-fer-
ment, nutritive and soothing de-
mulcent.
Glycerine plays an important
part in DIR. Pierce's Golden Med
ical Discovery in the cure of indi-
gestion, dyspepsia and weak stom-
ach, attended by sour risings,
uheartburn,n foul breath, coated
tongue, poor appetite, gnawing
feeling in stomach, biliousness and
kindred arrangements of the stom-
ach, liver and bowels.
For all diseases of the mucous
membranes, the vGo1den Medical
Discovery" is a specific. Catarrh,
whether of the nasal passages or of
the stomach, bowels or pelvic or
gans is cured by it. In Chronic
Catarrh of.the Nasal passages, it is
well, while taking the "Golden
Medical Discovery" for the neces-
sary constitutional treatment, to
cleanse the passages freely two or
three times day with DIR. Sage's
Catarrh Remedy. This thorough
course of treatment generally cures
even in the worst cases.
In coughs and hoarseness caus-
ed by bronchial, throat and lung
affections, except consumption in
its advanced stages, the &c Golden
Medical Discovery" is most effici-
emit remedy, especially in those OBJ
stinate, hang on-coughs caused by
irritation and congestion of the
bronchial mucous membranes. The
Los Angeles herald., 1908-06-24

Discovery" is not so good for
acute coughs arising from sudden
colds, nor must it be expected to
cure consumption in its advanced
stages-no medicine will do that
but for all the obstinate hang-on,
or chronic coughs, which, if neg
lected, or badly treated, lead Tip to
consumption, it is the best med
icine that can be taken.
It's an insult to your intelli.
gence for a dealer to endeavor to
palm off upon you some nostrum
of 1uknown COMPOSITION in place of
DR.. Pierce's wor1d-famed medicines
which are OF KNOWN COMPOSITION.
Most dealers recommend Doctor
Pierce's medicines because they
know what they are made of and
that the ingredients employed are
among the most valuable that a
medicine for like purposes can be
made of. The same is true of
leading physicians who do not hes
itate to recommend them, since
they know exactly what they con-
tain and that their ingredients are
the very best known to medical
science for the cure of the several
diseases for which these medicines
are recommended.
With tricky dealers it Is diff
ferent.
Something else that pays them a
little greater profit will be urged
upon you as vjust as good" or even
better. You can hardly afford to
accept substitute Of unkuoVn COM
position and without any particular
record of cures in place of Doctor
Pierce's medicines which are OF
KNOWN COMPOSITION and have a
record of forty years of euyss behind
them. Kou know what you want
and it is the dealers business to
supply that want. Insist HP0n IL.

One of the most attractive variations
of the ever-popular jumper mode is
shown in this pretty design, which dis
plays very charmingly the new wide
armhole. The waist also possesses a
unique feature in the ruffled sleeve,
which may be made in elbow or shorter
length, as desired. Raspberry pink
mirage silk was used for modelling the
frock, with ribbon of deeper shade
for garniture and allover lace for the
simulated guimpe; but other suitable
materials are wolfe, nuns yelling, pop
line or mercerized Bingham. The skirt
is new five-gored model, gathered
into the belt and tucked at the lower
edge. 1t may be made with or with
out the empire effect at the back of
the waistline, the former mode being
very popular at present, To make this
charming frock in the 15-year size re-
quires one and fourth yards of forty
four-inch material for the waist and
four and a half yards of the same width
for the dress. Two patterns:
4364-Four sizes, IA to II years.
4365-Four sizes, Ia to IL years.
The price of these patterns is 20 cents.

ELLIS CLUB CONCERT
, PROVES MUSIC TREAT
SIMPSON AUDITORIUM FILLED
TO DOME
Impressive Program Well Received by
Big catherIns--Several Excellent
Numbers endered--vocaI
Selections Excellent

AS usual, the final concert of the
Ellis club season last night at Simp-
son auditorium proved to be musical
and social event of Importance.
The house was crowded 70 the doors
and each number was warmly received.
The club in this concert had the as
sistance of the Krauss string quartet;
Mrs. Lottie Buck Porterfield, soprano.
OF Sacramento; Mrs. Ada Marsh Chick
at the organ; Mrs. w. Fl. Mead, fiutist,
and Jackson s. Gregg, tenor. Miss
Mary L. o'Donoughue. the accom-
PIANIST, was at the piano. Possessing
as 1t does some of the best professional
and amateur singers of Los Angeles
and director as capable and COM
polling as J. B. Poulin, the Ellis club
is in q position to give as perfect and
musical a. rendering of the best music
for male voices as could be heard in
America, and last nights program
could in no way have disappointed any
who came expecting keen enjoyment
of two hours music.
The opening number was James H.
Rogers setting Of 1.-THE Bedouin Love
Song" Mr.. Pfaunkuchen sang the
barytone solo. This has been heard in
previous concert OF the club, but
lost none OF it's effect by the repeti-
ton. Storch's "Reveries'' was a lovely
bit of tone color.
Then followed the most pretentious
offering of the evening. Bucks setting
of the chorus Of spirits and hours from
.'Prometheus Unbound" by Shelley,
Mr.. Gregg sang the solo parts and the
string quartet with Mr.. Mead aug
mented the accompaniment. The
music Is most grateful and warm and
Mr.. Paulin's conducting lent force and
vigor to every line. 1.-THE Sunken
City" by Victor Herbert, and 1.-THE
CHATTER and Flower" by veit, repre-
sented the popular side OF the program
and were In delightful contrast to the
more serious music.
Break, Break, Break" by John Fly
att Brewer also had the accompaniment
of the quartet and the arrangement Of
the famous Largo from Xerxes by Han
del was accompanied by Mrs. Chick at
the organ.
Mrs. Porterfield delighted her audi
ence in her larger numbers--a Handel
aria and an aria from Massenet's
"Herodiade." but in the second group of
shorter pieces she was remarkably well
received. You and T. by lehman,
Songs My Mother Taught Me-" by
Dvorak. and "Haymaking'' by Need
ham we're most charmingly rendered.
The Krauss string quartet con-
tributed two movements from Dvorak' 8
"Nigger Quartet" Op. So, and one can
not but be pleased to hear again this
excellent organization.
Taken as a whole, the final concert
of the twelfth season of the Ellis club
was rich in contrast, splendidly given
and warmly received.

The number of arrests necessary has
been growing less each year. During
the past twelve months probably not
more than thirty owners have been
brought into court. Every one is sat-
isfied with the system and the dog
catcher has no enemies.
The results, then, are humane sys-
tenn of enforcing the law: much
larger revenue and profit; much greater
efficiency in getting owners to take out
licenses and the absence of the dis
satisfaction and anger at the city and
its employees. which characterized the
old method.
