Warner's Save Cure Co.,
Gentlemen :
When my physician first told me that I had Bright's
disease a cold chill went over me and I felt as If I were a doomed man.
For three months I took his prescription and kept getting worse, when
my drupgisL who was a personal friend, told me that in his opinion
Warner s Safe Cure was the best medicine on earth for Bright's disease.
I took a bottle at once and gradually felt relieved. I kept
taking It patiently and regularly for two months and words can
not describe my feelings when I found that 1 was cured.
I felt like a new man. Bright's disease Is n thing of the past
and I would like to say to everyone similarly afflicted, try Warner's
Safe Cure.
Yours very respectfully,

GRIP IS EPIDEMIC!
Grip 1h every whore. The papers tell uh there are
two million Americans now suffering with "grip" (or
La Grippe, as the doctors call it) and what, is worse it
is more violent in its character than in the past, as a
much greater percentage of victims are dying from its
effects. Grip attacks the old and the young, the hard
'workers and the people of leisure, the rich and the
poor, everybody in fact, whose system is not. in perfect
order. If the bowels are constipated or irregular,
the Kidneys are ailing, the blood impure, the
liver torpid, the digestion weak or disordered, it pro
duces a condition very favorable to "grip," and such
people are its victims. A little care will render the
body proof against attack; that is to say, the impuri
ties in blood, liver stud bowels can be driven out
through the use of Prickly Ash Bitters, the great rear
dy for cleansing and regulating the system. This splen
did remedy purifies the bowels, strengthens the kid
neys, renovates the liver and blood and tones up the
digestive organs. In short, it prevents "grip" by put
ting the system In good condition. And as a help, In
cases where the disease has already fastened" itself on
the body, there is nothing better. It flushes the sew
ers of the body and stimulates the vital organs so that
n a (ure is assisted to more quickly throw off the dis
ease. Sold at Drug Stores.

having been with tho girl on the night of
tho muidcr. This testimony wns ruled
out on objection ot the defense, as was
nlso testimony ns to what Campbell had

Dctcctlvo Titus gave nn nccount of Death's

degrco of excitement. Judgo Scott spoke
to him and tried to calm him.

"At G:30 tho next morning, or rather the

wns lu the olllce, I went to Death's cell
and usked him It he hnd nny relations

Death sprang to his feet boforo the olUccr
could finish and exclaimed:
"You llol you lie!"
Judge Scott dragged tho highly excited
young man to his seat. Death was trembling
violently and seemed completely unnerved,
Detective Lord wont over tho same ground
as the other thrco detectives. Thero was
an argument nnd at Its conclusion Mr. Dunn
ordered Mr. Denth to tnko tho Btand.
Tho young mnn seemed to have regained
control ot himself. Ho said ho was nr
rested on a Monday night nnd waB taken
to tho station house, whero thero were two
other detectives. Ho continued: "There
woro thrco revolvers on tho tablo In tho
station house. Titus said to mo: 'Hilly,
thcto revolvers nro not loaded, so don't try
to kill yoursolf.' "
Ho was questioned by tho detectives nnd
answered them. Then ho testified Titus sold
to him:
"Hilly, you aro not telling tho truth.
Tell tho truo story nnd we'll sco you come
out of It nil right."
Ho eald ho wns nfrald of tho revolvers.
Ho wn osked wherO ho wos that night. He
answered because bo thought tho ofllcers
could get him free. Death wns allowed to
step down without hnvlng told what ho
claimed to have told tho detectives.
Judgo Dixon admitted tho testimony of
tho officers relative to Death s doings nnd
sayings In the station house.
Dctcctlvo Titus wns recalled and snld
Death had udmltted regarding tho girl
"Well, bho certnlnly had tho dopo thrown

Denth and McAllister put knock-out dropo

Tho continual filing of personal dainago

tbo olllclals to look to tho cause. In n
majority of all cases defective sidewalks Is
given as tho cause of the accident. An ef
fort wns mado last summer to havo as
many permanent sidewalks as possible laid
In order to prevent to Borne extent Just
such accidents. Owing to tho fact that
contractors could not dispose of such war
rants thero wns not as much of this kind
of work done as had been expected when
bids for permanent sidewalks wero asked
for. .
A great, many new walks wcro laid nnd
sovcral hundred dollars spent In repairing
old wnlkitjjrho great troublo is that In
certnlnsoctlons of tho city looso planks
aro torn up nnd carried nwny to bo used
for kindling wood. An effort has been
rondo from timo to tlmo to stop this, but
tho pollco forco Is not largo enough to
cover one quarter of tho city nnd the ro
suit Is that portions of walks arc torn up
In somo pnrt of tho city every day. Tho
plan of wiring tho planks together when
now wnlks nro laid la being tried nnd In
some sections tho wired walks remain In
tact. Unless very cold wenthor sets In
tho street commissioner will most likely
get a forco of men out nnd repair ns many
of the old wnlks as rapidly as possible.
If this Is dono very likely u number of ac
cidents can bo averted nnd tho city saved
quite a sum In dnmngo claims. Every
claim will, however, bo contested In the
courts by City Attorney Lambert nnd In
cases where n Judgment Is rendered
ngnlnst tho city nn appeal will bo taken
to the supremo court. This notion on tho
pnrt of tho legal department will. It is
tnougni, tend in a mcasuro to discourngo
tho filing of largu claims for damages.
Undor tho provisions of tho now charter
policemen aro directed to report to tho
street commissioner dally all defects In
sldewnlkB on their beats. Should this sec
tion bo carried out tho street commissioner
will ho cognizant nt nil times of tho con

At Monday night's meeting of tho coun

directing tho city clork to notify tho rnll

dently overlooked tho - fact that tho rail
roads aro not responsible for the condi

law tho city can compel tho roads to ro
nalr only n certain number of feet outBldo
of tho spans. When tho Union Stock Yards

BIG BABIES.
HEALTHY CHILDHKN MAKE
KAITV MOTHERS.
No baby ever came into the world,
however weak and frail, but held as Its
birthright the precious dower of n
mother's priceless love. But love can
lo so little for the weakling child except
pity it and sorrow for its helplessness,
that the mother who had looked forward
to the care of her child with happy an
ticipation finds it n task that tests her
devotion, to care for a puny, fretful,
wailing baby.
What a difference, -.rhcti the baby is
big, healthy and happy ! What a joy
to watch the growth of the sturdy little
one, whose gurgling laughter finds nn
echo in the voice of every member of
the family.
The question is, arc the conditions
which determined the strength or weak
ness of the child unalterable? U it
possible thnt a mother who has lornc
Several children and lost them all be
cause of inherent weakness, can be so
strengthened that lier children shall be
healtliy and hardy?
KKAD Tin: ANSVv'KIl
to that question, written by a woman
who is certainly competent to speak a.s
to the remarkable strength-giving power
of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription.
Mrs. Alex Kjer, of Gordonville, Cape
Girardeau Co., Mo., writes: "When I
look at my little boy I feel it my duty to
write to you. Perhaps some one will
see my testimony and nc led to use your

Such testimony ns that of Mrs. Kjcr
must carry conviction to the mind of
every wottinn who reads it, and let tills
be remembered ; there are thousands of
such testimonials to tho fact that Dr.
Tierce's l'avoritc Prescription inaL-s
weak women strong nnd sick women
well. There is indeed scarcely a form
of disease peculiar to women and cur

to the use of " l'avoritc Prescription."
WKAK AND NKRVOUS.
" I was very weak and nervous when 1
commenced taking Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription nnd 'Golden Medical Dis
covery1 nbout n year ago," writes Mrs.
M. Ii. Kverctts, of 89 Ox
ford St.. Woodstock. Out.
"1 had been suffering for
seven long months, and
had taken medicine from a
physician nil the time but
It seemed to make tne feel
much worse. My stomach
was bad (so my tloctor told
tne), and my nerves were
in such a state that I would
start at the lc.ist noise. I
felt irritable all the time :
was not able to do any of
my own housework ; had
to keep help all the time.
How I suffered God and
myself nlonc know. I was
greatly discour.mcd when
1 commenced taking your
medicines, but the first
bottle seemed to help me.
1 took live oouics ot ' i n
voritc Prescription,' two of
' Golden Medical Discov
ery,' nlso two vials of Dr.
Pierce's Pleasant Pellets.
I can highly recommend
'Favorite Prescription
and 'Golden Medical Dis
covery' to all who suffer
as I did. My sickness
dated from the birth of my
last child, who died the
Kituc day she was born.
My own life hung ou a
thread for weeks. If I had
enly taken Dr. Pierce's
I'avonte Prescription I am
sure my poor liaby would have been
alive to'-day. I suffered all the time
before she was born. I never had better
health than I now enjoy and it is all
owing to Dr. Pierce's medicines."
Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription ia
a safe and .sure medicine for women.
It contains no alcohol, neither opium,
cocaine nor any other narcotic. It
establishes regularity, dries the drains
which weaken women, heals inflamma
tion and ulceration, and cures female
weakness. It is the best preparative for
maternity tranqitilizing the nerves, en
couraging the appetite nnd inducing
refreshing sleep. It cures the nausea
experienced by many women who antici
pate maternity. It increases the physi
cal vigor and vitality, so that the ordeal
is approached, without anxiety, and the
baby's advent is made practically pain
less. WOMAN'S OPPORTUNITY.
