For weak, worn-out, over-worked wom-
emo matter what has caused the
breakdown, rFavorite Prescription
will be found most effective in building
up the strength, regulating the womanly
functions, subduing pain and bringing
about healthy, strong, vigorous con-
dition of the whole system.
DIR. Pierce believes that our American
forests abound in most valuable medi-
cinal roots for the cure of most of our
obstinate and most fatal diseases, if we
would properly investigate them; and,
in confirmation of this firm conviction,
he points with pride to the almost msElS
velous cures effected by his "Golds}
Medical Discovery" which has proven
itself to be the most efficient stomach
tonic, liver invigorator, heart tonic and
regulator, and blood cleanser known to
in the unparalleled cures it in constantly
making Of woman's many peculiar affec-
tons, weakness and distressing derange-
ments, is DR.. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip-
ton, as is amply attested by thousands
of unsolicited testimonials contributed
by grateful patients who have been
cured by it of leucorrhea, painful
periods, Irregularities, prolapsus and
other displacements, liberation of uterus
and kindred affections, often after many
other advertised medicines had failed.
Both these world-famed medicines
are wholly made up from the glycerio
extracts of native, medicinal roots,
found in our American forests. The
processes employed in their manu-
facture were original with DR.. Pierce,
and they are carried on by skilled chem
lists and pharmacists with the aid OF
apparatus and appliances specially
designed and built for this purpose.
Both medicines are entirely free from
alcohol and all other harmful, habit
forming drugs. What is said of their
power to cure the several diseases for
which they are advised may be easily
learned by sending your name and
address to DR.. r. V. Pierce, Buffalo,
N. Y, for little booklet which he has
compiled, containing copious extracts
which are consulted as authorities by
physicians of the several schools Of
practice for their guidance in prescrib-
ing. 1t is FREE TO ALL. A postal card
request will bring it.
DR.. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cure
constipation. Constipation is the cause
of many diseases. Cure the cause and
you cure the disease. One cPellet" is
gentle laxative, and two a mild ca
thartic. Druggists sell them, and
nothing is rjust rs good" They are the
original Little Liver Pills first put up by
old DR.. Pierce, over 40 years ago.
Much initiated, but never equaled.
They are tiny sugar-coated granules-
easy to take as candy.

DEMAND OF BURNS
AN UNUSUAL ONE

No pugiist who has ever worn the
heavyweight crown has been such joke
to the sporting world as Tommy Burns.
He has been a child of fortune. rising to
the top Of the pugilistic ladder without
ever beating q first-class man. Now.
when q capable opponent ie in sight he
makes a demand never heard of before

giving the loser only his training ex-
penses. There has never been heavy
weight championship battle decided in
this country under the conditions eXacted
by Burns and 1t is not likely there ever
will be. Burns win never meet a clever
man unless he has all the best of the
match. because he realizes his weakness
when it comes to reaching an opponent
at long range.
For a period of four weeks clever ex-
perts studied Burns ability carefully. For
his reputation. strength and sturdiness
he is the easiest man to catch with a
left-hand jab in the ring today. There
are a half dozen boxers in Philadelphia.
excluding big Jack Johnson. who can lay
their left hand in the Canadians face.
He does not seem to have the slightest
defense for straight LEFT or a hook
His success against the British heavies
lies i'm the fact that not one In ten can
use his left straight. They are a set OF
wild swingers and do not know even
the alphabet of judgment OF distance.
They are sluggish In their movements.
and q fast American boxer can get in
and out and away without receiving a
return.
There is more money in this country for
a bout between Burns .apd Johnson than
either in Great Britain or France. Shar-
KEY and Jeffries drew a sixty-seven-thou-
gate at Coney Island when
twenty -nve-round contests we're permitted
in the metropolis. and II was a rainy
night, too. Had. 1.-The weather been clear
ayers of the two, men. expected TO. sell
creased the receipts to 100000. When
Cans and Nelson fought at Goldfieid the
receipts amounted to $@.7iJ. No such
sums have ever been fought for
in any other country. Burns has suffl-
Client business acumen to realize on which
side his bread is buttered. and should he
and Johnson be htched up on the Pa
cific coast or I'm one of the MANY mining
villages he can come pretty near receiv-
ing $4,000 for his share OF the gate should
he win.
Despite reports Ia the contrary regard
ing Johnson sailing for the other side he
is still iH Philadelphia. and is likely to
meet JohL Willie. the Chicago heavy
weight. in six-round bout there. That
contest would give him enough coin to
seriously consider a. trip to England to
hound Burns.
