HOW NATURE PROVIDES FOR US.
Innodr-nt Runaway.
The delivery team belonging to A.
V. Oliver, Indulged In a splrlled but
hnimli ss runnwuy this morning. The
start was made from In front of the
feed store on Jefferson avenue, but
the animals were brought into subjec

The most Independent man on earth I
the farmer, for lie makes the earth yield
him almost everything needed for life.
He knows that as ho sows so will ba
reap. He usually keeps strong and
healthy from constant strife with Nature
in sunshine and in pure air. At night
when work Is done, he finds most refresh
Ing leop, such as only a tired man
knows. In the same way that to earth
yields food fur man, so does It provide
remedies for human Ills. Thousands of
households throughout tho farming dis
tricts of th United Slates know the
value of Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery It Is Nature's most valuable and
health-giving aprent mode without tho
use of alcohol. It contains native medi
cinal roots, and Is the concentration ot
Kature's vitality as found In the Ameri
can forests. This remedy has a hktorj
which speaks well for it because It was
given to the public by Dr. R. V. Pierce,
founder of the Invalids' Hotel and Surg
trnl Institute, at Buffalo. N. Y., nearly
forty years ago, and ha since been sold
by druggists In ever Increasing quan
tities. '
Dr. Pierce found that the bark of
the Black Cherry-tree, the root of the
Mandrake, Stone root. Queen's root,
Bloodroot nd Golden Seal root, made
Into a scientific, non-alcoholic extract by
the ue of glycerine, made the best altera-
ana tonin... The refreshing Influence
of this extract Is at once apparent in ui

Vital fires of the body burn brighter and
their Increased activity consumes the
tissue rubbish which otherwise may
poison the system. This alterative and
tonic oxtract has been found to stand
alone as a safe. Invigorating tonic, as It
does not deend on alcohol for a falsa
stimulation, but Is .torture's own method
of strengthening and cleansing the sys
tem. It tones up the stomach and purines
the blood tn Nature's own way. It Is well
known all over the world as Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery. The name
was given to this vegetable compound
because one of the Important Ingredients
was Golden Seal root. Such an
authority as Dr. Rnlerts Barthotow, of
Jefferson Medlral t'olleee, says of Golden
Seal root, "very useful as a stomachic
tonic. Cures catarrh of tho stomach and
headaches accompanying the same." Dr.
(irover Coe. In his rook Organic Medi
cines, speaking of Golden Seal root, says
that "as a. liver tnvlgorator it haseip
eiims." Further he says, "in chronic ir.
flaremstlon of the bladder we deem It one
of the must reliable agents of cure. Asa
Uinlc In the ennvelwing stages of fevers,
imeiininnln. dysentery and other acute
IlKiases Hydrastis (Golden Beal root) Is
peculiarly appropriate,"
Dr. Coe continues: We would here
add that our evierienco has demon

Prof. John M. Sc udder in Speelhc Med
