A Common Sense Talk.
!S we get health and happiness from the sunshine,
o do we get strength from the woods and fields
as Nature furnishes it to us. Just as mould
.thrives In darkness, so does disease. If all the animal
kingdom, including human beings, lived out in the good
air and in the sunshine, close to Nature, without taking
foul air into their lungs and improper food into their
stomachs, the precentage of sickness in this world would
be reduced to a minimum but civilisation has brought
its ills to mankind, and to correct these ills we must go
to Nature for the remedy. We advise nothing but what
is rig at when we recommend to you a medicine which is
purely vegetable and made from native, medicinal roots
found in the depths of our American forests. It is a
medicine the makers of which are not afraid to tell you of
its composition. We recommend Dr. Pierce's Golden
Medical Discovery for a run-down system in all cases
of impaired vitality, and we give you a few extracts
from well-known and recognized medical authorities
in regard to the ingredients contained in this medicine,
which can confidently be depended upon for the
most positive curative action in all weak states of the
st6mach accompanied with distressing indigestion or
dyspepsia.
This medicine takes its name from Golden Seal root
(Hydrastis Canadensis), which is one of its principal
ingredients.
We take up each ingredient of the w Golden Medical
Discovery " and quote our authorities for its use under
the headings of Golden Seal root, Queen's root, Stone
root, Black Cherry bark, Bloodroot, Mandrake root and
hemically pure Glycerine.
World's Dispensary Medical Association, Prop's, Buffalo, N.Y.
' GOLDEN SEAL ROOT
(Hydrastis Canadensis).
Dr. Boberts Bwtholow, Jefferson Medical College of Philadel
phia, a recognized minority on Maierxa
Altdtca and lerapeuttc$, says of Hydrastis
(Golden Seal): "Very useful as a storn
achio tonic (stomach tonic) and in atonio
dyspepsia. -Cures gastrid catarrh (catarrh
of stomach) and headaches accompanying
same. In catarrh of the gall duct and jaun
dice, it is of especial utility. Constipation,
dependent upon different deficient secre
tions, with hard' and dry stools, may be
oyercome by the remedy. Chronic catarrh
of the intestines, even if it has proceeded to ulceration, is re
markably benefited by Hydrastis."
From "Organic Medicines," by Qrover Coe, M. D., of New
fork, we extract the following: "Hydrastis (Goldpn Seal)
exercises an especial influence over mucous surfaces. Upon the
liver it acta with equal certainty and efficacy. As a cholagogue
(liver invigorator), baa few equals. In affections of the spleen,
and abdominal viscera generally, it is an efficient and reliable
remedy. Also in scrofula,, glandular diseases generally, cutane
ous eruptions, indigestion, debility, diarrhoea and dysentery,
constipation, piles and all morbid and critical dischargee."
The foregoing certainly are wonderfully strong en
dorsements of ate of Dr. Pierce's chief ingredients used
in his "Golden Medical Discovery."
ROOT
BOOT
QUEEN'S ROOT (Itllllnilsj Sytvatfca).
Frof. John King, M. D., says : "An alterative (blood-purifier)

and scrofulous affections. Beneficial in
bronchial affections permanently enres
bronchitis relieves irritations an impor
tant cough remedy coughs of years' stand
ing being cured. Aids in blood-making
and nutrition, and may be taken without
harm for long periods."
R. Bartholow, M. D., L. L. D., says:
"Htillineia has long been in renute as' an
alterative and employed for scrofula in its various forms. Most
satisfactory results have been obtained from its use in syphilitic
affections. Recommended in habitual constipation, torpidity of
liver, Jaundice, piles, ascites (dropsy), due to hepatic (liver)
changes or obstructions."
STONE ROOT (Colllnsenla Canadansls).
"Alterative, tonic, stimulant. Valuable in' laryngitis ' minis
ters' sore throat.' In diseases of stomach and intestines im
proves appetite, promotes flow of gastric
juice; tonic effect upon organs involved. A
good remedy in indigestion, dyspepsia,
chronic gastritis, increasing the "secretion

pensaory. Edwin M. Hale, M. D., Professor Materia
Medica in Hahnemann Medical College of
Chicago, says: "There is no doubt of Collin
sonia'i action on the urinary organs. It
nas cured disorders supposed to be due to
gravel, catarrh of the bladder and dropsy from deficient action
of the kidneys. Cures irritation of the cardiac (heart) nerves,
with rapid, regular or irregular beating. Useful in valvular
diseases."
BLACK CHERRYBARK (Prwnus Vlrglnlana).
Roberts Bartholow says: "Wild Cberrybark is an excellent
stomach tonic; it has long been held in great esteem in domestic
practice as a remedy in catarrhal states of
the bronchial mucous membrane and in
phthisis (consumption)." "The sirup is
much used as an ingredient in cough mix
tures." Professor F. Ellingvood,M.D.,of Bennett
Medical College, Chicago, says: "The tonio
influence of this agent is more markedly ap
parent when It is administered in disease
of the respiratory apparatus ( breathing
organs) of a subacute (mild) or (lingering)
A common remedy for chronic couch 9. the
cough of nervous patients without apparent cause; is popular in
the treatment of mild cases of palpitation. Palpitation from

"Has most frequently been employed in incipient phthisis,
bronchitis, influenza, pneumonia, croup, asthma, diphtheria, in
scarlatina, dyspntea (short breath), dyspepsia, hydrothorax
(dropsy of the chest) and jaundice." Edwin M. Hale, M. D.
"Its most important therepentical effects are witnessed in dis
eases of the respiratory (breathing) organs. Used in croup, in
functional amenorrhea (absence of menses), chronic nasal ca
tarrh and nasal polypi." K. Bartholow-, M. D.
GLYCERINE.
The United States Dispensatory snys of Glycerine: " When
given internally it is laxative, and it has also been suggested as
a substitute for cod-liver oil in phthisis (consumption)."
"The solvent and preservative properties as well as agreeable
taste and permanent consistence of clycerine, render it very use
ful as a menstruum (a solvent) in pharmacy."
Prof. Finley Ellingwood, M. D., of Bennett Medical College,
Chicago, says of Glycerine: "For internal use, Glycerine is anti
septic, laxative and nutritive, taking the place of cod -liver oil
to a large extent with children in the latter particular. This
fact is denied, but is capable of demonstration.
"It prevents decomposition in the stomach and encourages
secretion, and if a small quantity be added to ice water and
drank regularly in these fevers it is an intestinal antiseptic
and nutritive.
"In dytpepsia it serves an excellent purpose. Holding a fixed
quantity of the peroxide of hydrogen in solution, it is one of the
best manufactured product of the present time in its action
upon enfeebled, disordered stomachs, especially if there is ulcer
ation or catarrhal gastritis (catarrhal intlammntion of stomach),
it is a most efficient preparation. Glycerine will relieve many
cases of pyrosis (heartburn) and excessive gastric acidity. It is
useful in chronio intestinal dyspepsia, especially the flatulent
variety, and in certain forms of chronic constipation, stimulating
the secretory and excretory functions of the intestinal glands."
Nearly Forty Years 2lo,
Dr. Pierce discovered that pure, triple-refined glycerine of proper
strength is a better solvent and preservative of the active medi
cinal principles residing in most of our indigenous or native medi
cinal plants than is alcohol. As its use is entirely unobjection
able, while alcohol as is well-known when used even in small
Eortions, for a protracted period, does lasting injury to the
uman system, especially in the case of delicate women and
children, he decided to use chemically pure glycerine instead of
the usually employed alcohol in the preparation of his medicines.
He found that the glycerine, besides being entirely harmless,
possesses intrinsic medicinal properties, of great "value. Its
nutritive properties, Dr. Pierce believes, far surpass those of
cod-liver oil, entitling it to favorable consideration in all cases of
incipient consumption, especially when it is combined with the
active medicinal principles extracted from Black Cherrybark,
Queen's root, Stone root, Golden Seal root and Bloodroot, as in
"Golden Medical Discovery." Besides its superior nutritive pro
perties, glycerine is a very valuable demulcent and thereby
greatly enhances the remedial action of all the foregoing roots
in the cure of several coughs, bronchial, throat, laryngeal and
other kindred affections of the air-passnges and lungs. In all
"wasting diseases," where there is loss of flesh and gradual
"running-down" of the system, the glycerine certainly plays an
important part in lessening the breaking down and wasting of
tissue, and in promoting assimilation and increase of bodily
weight. It iB, in Dr. Pierce's estimation, a powerful reconstruc
tive agent in all cases of impaired vitality and especially valuable
when associated and combined with such superior alteratives
and .tonics as in "Golden Medical Discovery." Its wonderful
solvent properties also play an important part in the cure of gall
stones, severe constipation, with dry and almost impacted stools.
Glycerine is also one of the very best anti-ferments and as such
counteracts the excessive fermentation of foods in the stomach,
present in most cases of indigestion or dyspepsia. Thus the
pain, belching of noxious gas, bloating ana other disagreeable
symptoms are overcome and the Stone root. Golden Seal root,
Bloodroot and other ingredients of "Golden Medical Discovery"
are greatly assisted in their action in completing a cure. As
will he seen from tha writings of Drs. Bartholow, King, Scudder,
Coe, Ellingwood and other high authorities, these agents can
confidently be depended upon for the most positive, curative
action in all atonic, or weak, states of the stomach, accompanied
with distressing indigestion or dyspepsia. Read from the
writings of the authorities quoted, under headings of Golden
Seal root, Stone root, Black Cherrybark, Bloodroot, Queen's
root and Mandrake root and you will find that all these ingredi
ents are recommended as remedies for indigestion or dyspepsia.
All are ingredients of "Golden Medical Discovery," combined in
such porportions that each enhances the curative action of all
the others.
WHOSE SAY-SO IS BEST?

equally eminent.
The wrltlnirs of these have been for the
various medical journals and for publi

hence are the more valuable as they re

The ingredients of which S. S. S. is composed, and the method of com
bining and preparing them so that they gently and pleasantly build up and
strengthen every part of the body, make it the ideal tonic for a disordered
condition of the system. Every one feels the need of a tonic sometimes.
The system seems to get "out of gear, " the appetite becomes fickle, the
energies are depressed, sleep is not restful or refreshing, and the entire body
has a nerVous, worn-ont feeling. When the system is in this depleted, run
down condition it must be aided by a tonic, and S. S. S. is recognized every
where as the standard. Being made entirely of roots, herbs and barks
selected for their gentle action as well as their invigorating effect on the
system, it will not disagreeably affect any of the delicate members or tissues
as do most of the so-called tonics on the market which contain potash or
some other harmful mineral ingredient. These derange the stomach and
digestion, unfavorably affect the bowels or otherwise damage the health.
S. S. S. tones up the stomach and digestion, improves the appetite.' produces
refreshing sleep, rids the body of that tired, run-down feeling, and supplies
tone and vigor to the entire system. It re-establishes the healthy circulation
of tb blood, acts more promptly and gives better and more lasting results
than auy other tonic, and because of its vegetable purity is an absolutely
safe medicine for young or old. S. S. S. acts admirably in cases of dyspep
sia, indigestion and other 6tomach troubles, and after using it that uncom
fortable feeling of fullness., dizziness or drowsiness, after eating, are no
longer felt. Not only is S. S. S. the greatest of all tonics but possesses puri
fying and alterative properties, and if there is a taint in the blood it will
promptly remove every trace and restore perfect health. In selecting your
onic lot this year do not experiment but get S. S. S.. the recognised standard.

'To be convinced that people. from all
sections of the United stales are seemng
safe Investments In land In the west one
has only to take a short trip Into the
state," aald J. K. Buckingham, asaistant
general passenger agent of the Burlington,
upon his return from a trip to loioraao
polnta and to Scott'a Bluff. "Settlers are
flocking from all parts. The rush of land
seekers Is unprecedented.
"The Great Western Sugar company Is
now constructing factories at Fort Mor

completed In time to handle this year's
crops of sugar beets. Morgan county,
Colorado, is booming, and In Fort Morgan
alone some seventy-five new residences are
being built, In addition to several business
blocks.
"Scott'a Bluff country Is booming and
tha movement of land seekers to the coun
try vnder the new government ditch, ex
tending from Bridgeport to Guernsey, on
the, north side of the Platte river, la taxing
the faclltles of that aectlon to the utmost.
Hotels and livery atables cannot care for
all, and I would adviae anyone going there
to arrange ahead. The Great Western

CANNON EXPLAINS A LETTER
Speaker Telia What He Meant
Recent Reference to Taring
I.eacUlatlon.
by
WASHINGTON. April S.-8peaker Cannon
today mado a further explanation of the
letter recently written by him to a friend
In East Uverpool, O., regarding the .tariff.
The letter was published and seemed to
Indicate that tariff revision would probably
come in the future.
The atatement of the speaker today la as
follows:
I mas not aware that I waa writing a
letter for publication, although I have no
objection to Its publication. There are
many people in tbe country who beltnvo
that a single schedule or a few schedules
Of the tariff may be amended. This is
entirely impractical, for while an amend
ment to a single schedule might nleaae a
single interest it could not command enough
votes to enact it.
In my Judgment nothing can be done ex
cept by a complete revision of the tariff
which would be a compromise that would
command a majority vote of the 3W! mem-,
bers of the house and the ninety senators.
The enactment of such a revision and
the time to adjust It to conditions would
halt production, consumption and com
merce for at least twelve months, and when
the compromise Is enacted as a whole It
will probably not be an Improvement en
existing law. I do not believe a majority
of the people at this time desire to inter
fere with the present conditions, which are
the most prosperous conditions we have
had in tha repUbllo to the laborer, to the
farmer, to the capitalist, to the producer
and to the consumer.
That tha time will come when a general
revision will be entered upon I have no
doubt, but for the general interests of the
whole country the revision should he post
poned as long as possible. Congress re
flects the will of the people end the house
of representatives la chosen every two
years. There will be a general congres
sional election next November. Our friends,
the enemy. Insist on an immediate revision
of the tariff. If a majority of the people
demand Immediate, general revision they
will elect a majority of the members of this
house in favor of Immediate general revision.

It is conceded by the hifchest authorities that the
soda cracker contains the life-giving elements of wheat
in the best proportions.
This being so, then Uneeda Dlscult must at
once take first place as the food of the world soda
cracker, but such a soda cracker I Made by exact
science in sunny bakeries so light, bright and clean,
that they are a revelation. The flour is tested; the
purity of the water is absolutely assured ; the very air
is filtered why even the temperature and moisture of
the atmosphere is accurately regulated. The sponge is
kneaded by polished paddles, not by hand. Indeed,
Uneeda Dfscuit are only touched once, and then
by a pretty girl, from the time the flour leaves the bag
until the beautiful package is placed on your table.
