The Des Moines policy holders of the Southwestern Life Insurance association held a meeting and decided upon urging the association to accept a proposition far the sale of the business to the Conservative Life association of Los Angeles, Cal.

Hammer MYSTERY REMAINS UNSOLVED Confrann Kunnd un lludy of Ollrrr Dotaon DellereU to Be Korirrry. HELENA. Mont., Feb. SI The mystery surrounding the death ot Captain Oliver Dotson. one of the men who laid out the city of Denver and was a famous Black Hills character, whose body was found In bis cabin in Washington gulch, thirty-five miles west of Helena, remains unsolved and the tragedy promises to develop one of the most remarkable stories of crime ever heard In this region. The officers who returned today from Washington gulch report the finding of an alleged confession signed by Captain Dot son in which he declares that his son. Clin ton Dotson. his grandson, Oliver Dotson. and Ellas Perstnger. the latter a youth from Missouri, are Innocent of the murder of Eugene Cullinane. which occurred In August. 1SC. aad for which the younger Dotson is now serving a ninety-year sen tence and the other two ten-year terms In the penitentiary Dotson. in the confession, states that he was about to commit suicide and that he made the confession In the hope ot freeing Innocent ment. The officers believe the con fession to be a clever forgery, but say they eannot prove this until persons familiar with Dotson's handwriting can be found. To all appearances Dotson had committed sui cide. A rtfie had been rigged -up against the wall and Dotson had apparently stood in front of it and pulled the trigger with a string. He was shot through the head. Some time ago the warden of the peni tentiary learned that a convict who was re leased In December last had declared that he would kill Dotson, and that he would leave on the body a confession purporting to exonerate the three men in prison. It Is claimed that Clinton Dotson promised to divide SU.060. which he claimed to have burled somewhere In Wyoming, with the convict if he would kill his father and se cure his pardon. This convict was seen near Washington gulch last Sunday and cannot be found now. The alleged confession ot Dotson impli cated Edward Cachellln In the murder of Cullinane. Cachellln Is now county tras orer at Sparnsh, S. D. He was a friend of the younger Dotson and spent money In de Toe house members rushed tits loag list of new bills today.

The senate passed the houae amended wolf bounty bill and reconsidered the vote by which the chair refused by Le was donated to the State Historical society and referred the same to the Judiciary com mittee with the Intention of killing it. Loomls attempted to advance the building and loan hill, but was defeated, and then moved an Indefinite postponement, giving as hU reason that the legislature showed no disposition to curb the robbery of these associations.

Advertising Comment Plain Talk to Advertisers. Sometimes I smile when I bear a man say that his trade Is 'established" and he does sot need to advertise any more. Did you ever hear of a man whose ap- i petite was so thoroughly "established" that j he did not need to eat any more? When I the plum pudding and beefsteak which you ' ate last year will suffice to satisfy your ' hunger this year then last year's advents i lng will be sufficient far this year's busi ness. In the meantime Well' In the aeastime. It you want to do business, you will fiad it aseeesary to 1 ask for it. There are a lot of real nice people in this i country who say that "If a thing is not j worth asking tor it's not worth having." i aad these people make It the rule of their j Hves to gtve their business only to these i who do ask far it j Very sensible people they are. too. Not Ion; ago in my travels I ran across one of these atea who think Ust year's bird aests wilt do to batch this year's eggs In. ! The conversation turned upon the subject ! of advertising. This is a matter I don't ' often mention, outside the family. I have been told that I talk advertising In my sleep. (That's ae dream, either.) Said the gentleman In question "I am so well ad vertised I da cot need to do any more of it: everybody knows about me." i Nov I an naturally of a very serious turn of mind, so I dM not laugh when ha . male the remark; I'only looked solemn and t.rned the conversation into political eban , nt's. Suddenly I asked him to name the man who was Mr. Bryan's running mate in 1SS and for the life of him he could not I do it Still maintaining the gravity which has often caused people to mistake me for superintendent ot the morgue, I said -"He I was one of the tett advertised men In the country but a short time ago and yet you eannot even recall his name." For a moment he looked at me with a sad, sweet smile and then asked how much it uould cost for a column of space on a five year contract, all cash in advance. The buttaess which abides beloved ia the business that constantly makes itself known ! and felt. Tos can put it down as aa estab lished fact that so soon as rou begin to let the public alone it will prsmptlr let you alone, so far as buying your goods Is con cerned But no I hear some one say "This Is not .n keeping with some talk we have l heard which claimed advertisis: uas (.emu lative In Its effects. " Just so. Advertising Is cumulative. So are bricks. When, however, you stop putting the bricks in the wall they cease to "cumu late." Same way with ads. The dear public concerns itself about u.. Just In proportion asvwe compel It to. Trying to build up a business which will abide, and keep on abiding, without adver tising, is very much like a married man trying to have bis own way Just a sheer aaste of nervous energy. The man who builds ap a business which abides, will find it necessary not only to ad vertise it alt the time, but to advertise it right. Fooling away good mosey in advertlslnz. Is as easy as falling ia love. What catches many a man Is the. so-called low rate of erase paper, which has absolutely nothing else to offer as as .nducemeat. no prestige, no circulation, no nothing. Just a low rale. After the advertiser has paid his "low rate" and get nothing, he finds that It was a high rate. In fart he paid about ltr9 per cent more thaa the thing was worth. It would seem that the sensible thing for the advertiser to do would he to give these questionable publications the go by. The wise thing is to permanently Identity himself-with publications whose ability to get business ran bo easily ascertained by mak ing Inquiry ot advertisers who a so their columns. I want to say a few things In reference to this paper I make this statement now. so you can skip It. It you feel so disposed. Nothing I could ever say about Its ability to get business tor the advertiser, would be halt so eloquent as the advertising pages themselves. They may not "speak volumes." they speak columns, and any man of ordinary business sense knows that If this Journal was not a business getter It would not carry the large amount ot advertising It does. It you want to be "strictly In it" beloved, why sot go along with a paper that "gets there T" Now Just a word about resolutions. It is said, you know, that the place none ot us wish to go to when we die. Is pived with these Going down to the train, and resolving to get aboard, and then standing there until the train pulls out. will not take you any where. The other day in my apa.lty as pabl'r sympathiser and all around dispenser of condolences. It was my painful duty to try and let a little sunshine Into the darkened home ot a woman, with three small children whose husband had Just died and left them absolutely unprovided for. I asked about lite Insurance, but she said he had none, that often he talked about It. and resolved he would do It, but sever did. Poor woman' She could not take those "resolutions" to any life Insurance company and cash them. She could have done that however with a policy. Resolvtng to put your ad In this paper won't sell your goods, putttlng it in win gt the business "sure as shoottn." Which would you rather do? Resolve or do'buslness. If the. latter, go after it and you will get It. "The world belongs to the man who asks for It. ' is an aphorism, to the truth of which all hustlers will suhserlbe. All things may come to the man who wilts, but he won't be able to use them at the end of the waiting. He'll be dead. We often hear some Individual referred to with contempt as a fellow "who wants the earth." I always have an Instinctive desire to hunt up such a one and pat him on the back. What a weary, prosaic old world this would be If all these fellows who "want the earth" were out of It. A ceme tery is a good place for a man seeking a sice, quiet time, but give me "The thronging marts of life Where men rush to and fro, ' and I will try and be happy yet a while. Ths chap whom "the world owes a living," and Is sitting around waiting to have It drop In his hat; haw I long at times to kick him. The world owes every man a living for that matter, provided he goes after It. and asks for it. and keeps asking and working until he gets It The world Is like a modest young girl, quite apt to bestow favors upon ths fellow who is everlastingly asking for them. Court fortune as you court a young lady, with tact, ability and persistence, especially ths latter, and first thing you know both the world and the girl win come tumbling Into your lap Then like Monte Chris to tor some other fellow, you can put your arms around them both, and stand ing on the rock of success, while the waves of envy and opposition dash madly, but in vain at your feet, you can shout in the words of the Immortal John Qulncy Adams "In hoc slgno Vlncennes, Indiana, Pro Bono Publico, bologna sausage world without ead, I asked for the earth through the ol timns ot The Bee. and behold It is mine As a ni!e it mvr b sail that the higher the civi.ta tion the greater the suffering; the more refined the organism the more intense the pain. This is pecal'urlr true of woman considered in relation to the maternal function. With the Indian woman maternity U merely an episode. With her white sister it is an epoch The Indian woman gos aside atone and intermit-s her daily labors briefly when th pansrs of maternity come npon her. The whit-e mother is often helpless many days or even weeks before the baby's coming, endnres agonies for hoars and sometimes days before her moth erhood is accomplihed, and then lies for weeks in a slow recovery, often usable to narso the little tender infant that lies nest her heart. The civilised worn in has "erred from honest Na ture's rale." In her manner of living and her mode of dress she has, in successive generations, depleted her nervons force and reduced her muscular strength. If maternity is to become to her the incidental and prac tically painless thing which it is to the les civilized and loss highly organized woman, Nature :nut have help. She must have help for nerves and mule ; help to bring th womanly organism up to the natural standard, so that maternity become a practically pain less episode. That such help a this i fitly ami fully furnished by Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is abundantly proved by the following words from women : I cannot say too ranch for Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescrip tion." writes Mrv S. E. Rce, of Big Otter. Clay Co., W. Va. " I feel it rnv dnty to aav to all women who are suffering from, female troubles that :t Is the best medicine on earth that thev a a. 91 m.

Then I had used two bot tles of Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription aad was only two hoars in the hands of the doctor. You have ay heartfelt thanks for the j-ood year medicine has done me." "Having used your ' Favorite Prescription,' I thought I would let yon know about it," writes Mrs. Katie Auliker, of 754 Pat Street, Alliance, Ohio. ""Two years ago I used two bottles of it, and in April a nice baby" was bora, before the doctor came. I was not very sick. Baby is now four teen months old and weighs thirtr pounds. "Several neigh bors are nsing Dr. Pierce's medicine through my telling then about it. One lady says, 'Before commencing Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription I had to vomit everr dav ; but alter i got tne medicine, lrona tne nrst spoonful tnat I took, I stopped vctnttisg.' It has done the same thing for me. It is a God-snd for women "Words cassot exnrei how grateful I am for your kind advice and your Favorite Precr.p tion,'" writes lira. D, 3.

With the first child I sn3ered twentv-eight hoarj, and with the second I used ;-ocr medicine and was sick only three hoars. I believe Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription to be the beat medicine in the world for suffering females." " I have been uimg Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription, and can say it is just what vtw advertise it to be, and can cheerfully recommend it,' writes Mrs. Victor J. Hadin, of Leonardville, Rilev Co., Kansas. n I began taking it just two months before I was confined, and was greiUr bene fited by its cse. The doctor who attended me said I did about as well as any one he had seen fas I was sick only about three hcrarsi, and also that your 'Favorite Prescription' was the 'one patent medicine' which he did have faith in. Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is a preparation specially designed for the cure of disease peculiar to women. From the first change of life from girlhood to womanhood nntil the last change of life, it is woman's best and most reliable friend. It establishes regularity, dries offensive and weakening drains, heals inflam mation and ulceration and cures female weakness. Used as a preparative for maternity it tranquilizea the nerves, encourages the appetite, and induces refreshing sleep. It gives mental courage and physical strength for the ordeal of motherhood. bick women are lnnted to consult Dr. Pierce bv letter fne.
