Among the notable professional men
of this country who achieved great
success along etricty legitimate lines
was DR.. r. V. Pierce. Devoting his
attention TO the speciality of women's
diseases, he became q recognized
authority in that line.
Over fifty years ago this noted
physician gave to the world q Pre-
scription which has mover been
equRled for the weaknesses of
women. Or. Pierce, of Buffalo, n. Y.
long since found out what is natu.
rally oest for women's diseases, He
learned it all thru treating thou
sands Of cases. The result of his
studies was a medicine called Doctor
Pierce''s favorite Prescription. This
medicine is made of vegetable growths
that nature surely intended for back
ache, headache, weakening pains, and
for the many disorders common TO
women in all ages Of life. Women who
take this standard remedy know that
in Or. Pierce's Favorte Prescription

goods market today, although
prices for cotton cloths were not
materially changed. The amount
Of cheap goods in second hands
was materially reduced, however,
and concessions we're less frequent.
There was a fair volume of trad
ing in standard print cloths with
64x60's, ranging from 8asQ8xc,
while the market for 6Sx72's could
be considered 9Ac. The demand
for sheetings was less marked, al
though inquiries from the bag trade
and for export are floating around
Worth street. Sateens were not SO
active and little enthusiasm was
shown in twills and drills. Hold
ers Of pajama checks were very
firm in their ideas for future de-
livery.
More buying was in evidence in
the raw silk market with prices
firmer for double extra cracks and
