PROPRIETARY MEDICINES PRE-.
SCRlBED BY DOCTORS,

Examination of the formulary de-
partments of leading drug stores
throughout the country has proved
that a very large percentage of the
prescriptions filed for doctors are for
proprietary medicines.
This is because the average doctor
of today is unable to devise prescrip-
tons equally as efficacious.
Such standard remedies as Lydia E.
Pinkham's Vegetable Compound, are
prescribed over and over again by
fair minded physicians throughout the
country.

Resolutions.

The Womans Relief Corps. Itch
field, Me, has adopted the following
resolutions upon the death of it's chap
lain, Mrs. Alice Varney Fogg:
Whereas, on June q, 1909, Mrs. Alice
Varrey Fogg. the efficient chaplain of
the Woman's Relief Corps, heard the
"clear call' and passed over into that
silent city whose mysteries can never
be unfolded or fully understood until
we, too. have passed into that gloom
which has Gods face for a far light"
Resolved, That the death of our sis
ter, who was one of the most willing
workers in the corps, always at her
post, faithful in the discharge of her
duties, and ever ready to aid in the
work. will prove a serious loss to our
organization and to the community.
Resoiver. That we extend our SYM
pathy to the bereaved husband and
family, believing that He, who. CEN
turtles ago. brought healing when He
said: "She is not dead, but sleepeth,"
and Who comforted our sister in those
hours of pain, will bring peace and
comfort to them in their sorrow
Resolved, That these resolutions be
spread upon the records of our corps
and d copy of the same be sent to the
bereaved family.

MOTORMAN FREED FOR
PAUCITY OF EVIDENCE.
Shown that Victim of Trolley
Car Was Himself at Fault.

Because there practically was no evil
dence by the State against Edward
Beecher, a motorman of the Public
Service Railway Company, charged
with manslaughter in causing the death
of Julius Kaufman October 3 last,
Judge Davis in the Court of Quarter
Sessions today allowed nolle PROSE- pro-
ceedings to be entered.
The accident occurred in Main street,
East Orange. While Beecher was run
ming his car toward Orange, kaufman
stepped in front OF it. Before the car
could be stopped he was killed.
Second Assistant Prosecutor Lehl-
bach in moving for the dimissal of the
indictment explained that there was
nothing to prevent Kaufman from see
ing the car, which was not running
rapidly, and that Beecher did every
thing a man might be reasonably ex-
pected to do TO stop 1t.
Beecher has been under $1,000 bail
since the accident.

PRUDENTIAL CO. is
GIVEN GOLD MEDAL.
Highest Award at tuberculosis
Congress.

The Prudential Insurance Company
has just been awarded a gold medal
for its exhibit of charts and diagrams
at the international elngress of tuber-
culosis recently held at Washington,
d. c.
The exhibit Of the Prudential consist
ed of a series of charts illustrating, in
a graphic form, the mortality from con
sumption in thirty different trades. The
charts are derived from the extensive
mortality experience of the
and no similar facts of occupation NOR
tally have heretofore been made public
by health authorities, or by other life
insurance companies. The exhibit en-
phasizes the vast amount of ill-health
among workmen, resulting from con-
tinuous exposure to the different varie-
ties of dust, and natu ally has attracted
considerable attention
The charts are now on view in the
Museum of Natural, History, Central
Park West. New York, and they will
subsequently be shown in a number of
cities throughout the country, as part
of a travelling exhibit of the National
Society for the Study and Prevention
of tuberculosis, to which the same have
been presented by the company.
The award of a gold medal by the
international congress of tuberculosis is
in line with the awards for former ex-
hibits made by the Prudential, and for
which a gold medal was received at
Paris in 1900, the grand prize at ST.
Louis in 1904, and a gold medal, also
the highest award, from the jamestown
ter-centennial exhibition in 1907.

OF MICHAEL LEO
is AGAIN POSTPONED.

Because neither Prosecutor Wilbur
A. Mott nor former Judge Thomas s.
Henry, of counsel for Michael Leo,
charged with murder, were ready to go
on today before Judge Ten Eyck in the
Court of Oyer and Terminer, there was
a -postponement until Februtry 8.
Leo is charged with having caused
the death of his 1S-year-old bride
March 10 last by pressing her against
a red-hot stove, SO that she died from
her burns. The motive is alleged to
have been the husbands eagerness to
collect on her life insurance policy. The
Leos lived at 375 Morris avenue. The
trial has been postponed several times
before.
Mr.. Mott, in moving that the case
go off, said that, while Judge Hahn. Mr..
Henry's colleague, was ready, neither
he nor Mr.. Henry could possibly do
justice to the parties interested, as the
trial will be a long and complicated
one, and they were not prepared for it.
