Tho tomporanco crusado in Kansas
has resulted, as wo predicted some timo
ago, in death. During the past week
two pitched battles havo resulted from
tho raids ou joints in Kansas instigated
by Mrs. Carrie Nation. In those two
pitched battles the result has been two
deatliB, ono a man crusader and ono a
joint keopor's wifo, the former nt To
poka and the latter atMillfordjKumma.
And nsido from this sovoral othets
were more or less wounded or injured.
This is the outcome of violations of tho
laws of thostato, and inltho eyos of tho
average conservative, eiu.oi. ilio cru
saders are just as much breakers of tho
laws of Kansas as aro tbo joint keep
ers, as it is just as much against ono of
tho laws of Kansas to raise a mob to do
violouco ns it is against another of the
laws of Kansas to sell intoxicating
liquors. And two wrongs do not make
ono right. Murder is murder oven if
tho instigator does claim to bo uudor
tho protection of God. If tho laws of
Kansas cat not bo enforced by tin pres
ent officials let tho people down there
elect officials who will enforco them,
or modify them. When Mrs. Carrie
Nation attempts to sie.o tho reigns of
government and enforco tho existing
laws, together witn such others ns she
thinks should exist, sho should bo
treated by the Kansas officials just tho
same as any other person who usurped
authority of tho law.

A lrreat inanv women are subject to
spells of dizziness, spots before the eyes,
and a ringing noise in the head. These
symptoms are commonly associated with
liver "trouble" as the result of a diseased
condition of the stomach and other or
gans of digestion and nutrition.
Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discov
ery cures diseases of the stomach and the
allied organs of digestion and nutrition.
It cures through the stomach diseases
seemingly remote from that organ, but
which have their origin In a diseased
condition of the stomach and digestive
and nutritive svstctu. Hence, cures of
heart, lungs, liver, kidneys, and other
organs are constantly effected by the
use of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery. There U no alcohol in the " Discovery"
and It is free from opium, cocaine, nnd
all other narcotics.
Some dealers may offer a substitute as
"just as good" as Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery. There's more profit
in substitutes for the dealer. There's
more health in the "Discovery" for you.
