Missouri Attorney Goes Back to King
Edward III for Decisions in
Common Law.
A professor of medieval history would
have been In his element In Judge Sesra'
court. Friday morning. Argument over a
motion to quash an Indictment reached
clear back to fourteenth century 'decisions In
England and thero was talk of King

ever since that worthy's time.
Attorney. John H. McNeely of St. Joseph,
Mo., wan principal driver Into the depth
of history with regard to the common law.
Ho was ai auing In behalf of John A.
l'altys, who Is charged with aiding and
abetting K. C. UHUam In the burglary of
the Cressy shoe store In South Omaha.
It Is charged that Kaltys, who was form

furnished him with the combination of tho

Ik fore the act and brought back here.
II. B. Kleharty appeared with McNeely
and Assistant County Attorney Kllick and
argued against the quashing of the Indict

One Is the Jurisdiction of district court
of Douglas county; the other, the merit of
the indictment as In respect to setting

On the question of Jurisdiction Judge
Sears intimated that he would rule against
counsel for Faltys. On the other hand he
seemed to think the Indictment faulty In

If the decision should go against the
state a new Information will be filed.

r
Against Artlon la at and
National l.ea-lslatares.
The Burlington Is sending out a circular
containing a recent address of Vice Presi
dent Daniel Wtllard, the key note cf which
Is a plea that the railroads beglven a rest
Is a plea that the railroads be given a rest
circular will be sent to rach of the S8.000
employes of the Burlington system.
Mr. .Wlllard Insists In his address that J
the railroads must be given time to adjust
themselves to the numerous new laws
enacted during the last two or three years.
He says that there are now pending In
congress and In the eleven states traversed
by the Burlington, 27J proposed laws regu
lating railroads, - and the employes are
asked to co-operate with the management
by using their Influence to oppose such
legislation. . As an example, of what these
numerous laws have done, Mr.. Wlllard
cites the almost complete ' discontinuance
of railroad Improvement work and also
reductions In the pay roll of expenditures
on the Burlington system.
Mr. Wlllard points out that during the
legislative season of , 19M-T . over - bills
concerning railroads , were Introduced In
the eleven legislatures and In congress, all
of which, he says, were regarded by rail
road men as hostile, and many of which,
such as the 2-cent passenger bill, reduced
revenues. At the same time, he says,
wages were generally raised, and this
Item alone amounted to $3,000,000 for the
Burlington system.
In his address Mr. Wlllard says that for
1807 the Burlington set aside $18,000,000 for
extraordinary expenditures, sucn as
double tracking, new stations and new ex
tension's. In 1908, v Immediately after the
panic, the Burlington cut this In half and
set aside but $8,000,000. For ISO but $1,000,
000 has been set aside for new work and
the pay roll has been reduced.
Pleads for a Chance
That this state of afairs may be changed
Mr. Wlllard pleads that the railroads be
given a rest from further regulation for
a time. "
"In my opinion," he says, "the railroad
business, which really means all business,
will recover Its former proportions when
the Influences' and forces at work during
the last two or three years refrain from
doing the things which have contributed so
largely to bring about the depression wnicn
we all deplore. ' I do not mean that laws
already made must necessarily be un
made, that wagon raised must be reduced,
but we must have a rest.
"We must be given time and opportunity
to work out the new problems that have
been forced upon us. We must be given
an opportunity to find out what Is going
to cost to meet tho new requirements,
and also to sec how our revenues are going
to be affected by reduction of rates.
"Perhaps It will be found that, by new
methodB growing out of the exigencies of
the case, we will aUU be able to earn a
surplus sufficient to Justify the resump
tion of extraordinary expenditures
formerly.
"If not, . then either rates must be sd
vanced or wages reduced, or Improvements
must wait or be carried on with borrowed
money."
THUGS BEAT UP AN OLD MAN

John McBlhutton. an aged man who

Mr Mggle Earlywlne. Woodbine, la.,

the Austro-American Doctors can help

a complication of chronic disorders which
Dr. Milan says were caused primarily by
disordered kldnoys and nerves. Numerous
doctors had treated me, but I received no
benefit until I started treating with the
Aimtro-Araertcin Doctors. I now feel like
a new woman."
O. W. Phelps, 1902 N. Kill St., Omaha,
who has suffered for years with partial
paralysis, says: "When I started treat
ment, with the Austro-American Doctors
I was unable to button my coat without
assistance. I m now working every day
at my trade as carpenter. I sincerely
recommend their treatment to anyone suf
fering from similar trouble."
U. Plvonka of South Omaha. R. F. D,

suffering with epilepsy for tsn years, never

has not had a spell, and Is in better health

Mrs. Urban, 8460 South 16th .St, Omaha,

you for gall stones. For the last two and
one-half years I have suffered untold

STRENUOUSNESS.
Energetic, persevering action is gener
ally necessarry to overcome the obstacles
and attain great and noble ends In 'life.
Bo, too. If one Is afflicted with a dread
disease which has fastened Itself upon
some of the organa of the body and
becomes firmly sealed as a lingering or
chrortlo malady, active and persistent
treatment is generally necessary to dislodge
the enemy.
Since any medical treatment, however
good It may be, must be long continued
in order to be effective in old established
and therefore obstinate cases, how Import
ant that the remedial agencies employed
be of a harmless character. To be safe
and harmless, when their use is thus pro
tracted, they should be of sch nature as
to be easily eliminated or carried out of
the yst.em when they have performed their
work, Just as the refuse of food is carried
out of the system. Most mineral medicines
are not thus easily gotten rid. of. Take
arsenic, for Instance, If Introduced Into the.
system In any considerable quantity It will
lodge in th brain, liver, kidneya -and
other parts. and there remain as a foreign
body to set up Irritation and disease for a
long .period of time If death docs not
sooner Intervene. This Is also true of most
mineral medicines.
With medicines of vegetable composition
It 'Is different. They do their . work by
aiding the natural functions of the several
organs of the body for which they have
an affinity, and like the refuse of our
food, are carried out of the system through
the natural emunctorles ihs lungs, skin,
kidneys and bowels. Thus no Injury Is done
to the system In cases where the use of
such medicines is continued for a long
period of time. Especially is this true If
the medicine taken Is free from alcohol.
It is well known, however, that even small
portions of alcohol taken for a considerable
period of time will do serious Injury to the
bodily organa and functions and especially
to the brain. How Important, then, In
choosing a medicine for treating a- malady
of long standing and when medicines must,
in ordr to cure, be perseverlngly taken
for a .' considerable period of time, that
those only should be used which are
known to be free of alcohol and of vege
table composition.
With most medicines put up for family
use and sold through druggists, their com
position is kept a profound secret, known
only to those who compound and put them
out for sale. Any' afflicted person who
buys and uses them, does so, as It were,
In the dark. If not indeed at his or her
peril. They may, and generally do, con
tain a very large percenU.ke of alcohol
or cheap whiskey which thoroughly unfits
them for protracted use. But thla Is 'not
the worst fault of many of them, objec
tionable though it is. Narcotics and min
eral poisons, which we have shown tn be so
harmful, especially when used protractedly,
are contained In many of these secret com
pounds. To overcome the well-grounded and
reasonable objections of the more Intelli
gent to the use of secret, medicinal
compounds. Dr. R. V. Pierce, of Buffalo,
N. Y., some Urns ago, decided to make
a bold departure from the usual course
pursued by the makers of put-up medi
cines for domestic use. and so has published
broadcast and openly to the whole world,
a fujl and complete list of all the Ingre
dients entering Into the composition of his
widely celebrated medicines. Thus he has
taken his numerous patrons and patients
Into bis full confidence. Thus, too. he has
removed bis medicines from among secret
nostrums of doubtfull merits, and made
them Remedies of Known Compositions.
By this bold step he has shown that his
formulas are of such xcUnce that b

Is not afraid to subject them to the fullest
scrutiny. He ha come to believe, and Is
willing to concede, that his patients and
all who take his put-up medicines have a
perfect right to know what they ara taking
Into their stomachs.
Not only does the wrapper of every bottle
of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery,
the famous medicine for weak stomach,
torpid liver or biliousness and all catarrhal
diseases wherever located, have printed
upon It. In plain English, a full and com
plete list of all the Ingredients composing
It, but. a small book has been compiled
from numerous standard medical works, of
all th.e different schools of practice, con
taining very numerous extracts from the
writings ofsleadlng practitioners of medi
cine, endorsing In the strongest possible
terms, each and every ingredient contained
In Dr.' Pierce's medicines. One of these
little books will be mailed free to any one
sending address on postal card, or by let
ter, to Dr. R. V. Pierce. Buffalo. N. T.,
and requesting the same. From this little
book It will be learned that Dr. Pierce s
medicines contain no alcohol, narcotics,
mineral agents or other poisonous or injuri
ous agents; that they are made from Indig
enous, or native, medicinal roots of great
value, the properties of which are ex
tracted and perfectly preserved by the use
of chemically pure glycerine of proper
strength. It will also be found that the
glycerine employed greatly enhances the
curative principles of the several roots em
ployed, ss it Is the best possible solvent
of their medical principles, besides
possessing intrinsic medicinal value of Its
own, being a fine demulcent, nutritive, al
terative and anti-ferment.
From perusing this little book of ex
tracts, it will be found that some of the
most valuable Ingredients contained In Dr.
Pierce's Favorite Prescription for weak,
nervous, overworked, "run-down" and de
bilitated women, were employed, long years
ago. byr the Indians for similar ailments
affecting their squaws. In fact, one of the
most valuable medicinal plants entering
Into the composition of Dr. Pierce's Favor
ite Prescription was known to the Indians
as "Bquaw Weed." Our knowledge of t he
uses of not a few of our most valuable
native, medicinal plants was gained from
the Indians.
As made up by Improved and exact pro
cesses, the , "Favorite' Prescription" Is a
most efficient remedy for regulating all
the womanly functions, correcting displace
ments, as prolapsus, ante-version and
retro-version, ovei coming painful periods,
toning up the nerves and bringing about
a perfoc. sta e of health. It ouies the ta.-k-ache,
the dragging -down distress In the
pelvic region, the pain and tenderness over
the ovaries, dries up the pelvic catarrhal
drain, ao disagreeable and weakening, and
overcomes every form of weakness Inci
dent to the organs distinctly feminine.
"Favorite Prescription" is the only medi
cine for women, the makers of which are
not afraid to print their formula oa the
bottle wrapper, thus taking rbelr patrons
Into their full confidence. It is the only
medicine for women, every Ingredient of
which has ths strongest possible endorse
