I was a sufferer from chronic diarrhea for five
years," writes Mrs. Mary A. Aaron, of Rolla,
Phelps Co., Mo. "I tried different remedies,
Which would iHve ine relief for a short time
only. My trouble would return as bad as ever.
I consulted you in July, iqoo, and by your advice
commrucccTusing Dr. Pierce's n tnedies. I took
two bottles of the 'Golden Meidcal Discovery,'
three viols of the ' Pellets,' and some of the
Extract of Smart-Weed as you advised. I
kftve not had any return of my trouble since
Ming your medicines. Am now seventy-one
years old and I never had anything to relieve
me so quick. 1 think Dr. Pierce's medicines the
greatest on earth. Should I ever have any re
turn of my trouble shell use your medicine.
My thanks to you for vonr advice ntid thanks
to Almighty God for restoring me to health
through your hands.''

Portland, April C, 1904.
Egus contiiiuo week, owing to- large
receipts, a ( decline in local demand and
an absence of inquiry from the north.
Dealers predict a further drop of 17
cents.
Vtjry few chickens are in the market
and the continued scarcity causes dealers
to believe that tbe Bupply is short in the
Northwest. Prices can go no higher, as
tbe demand is even limited at present
quotations, and consumers switch off to
veal or some other substitute within
reach of their pursjs.
The pcarcity of "block bogs" continue
a feature in Portland markets, and the
present prices are considered a good in
ducement to producers to ship in were
there any hogs to ship. The stock in
this cIbes of fresh mcntB is considered
well-nigh exhausted for the eeton.

The matter of feed is of
tremendous importance to the
farmer. Wrong feeding is
loss. Right feeding is profit.
The up-to-date farmer knows
what to feed his cows to get
the most milk, his pigs to get
the most pork, his hens to
get the most eggs. Science.
But how about the children ?
Are they fed according to
science, a bone food if bones
are soft and undeveloped, a
flesh and muscle food if they
are thin and weak and a blood
food if there is anemia ?
Scott's Emulsion is a mixed
food; the Cod Liver Oil in it
makes flesh, blood and muscle,
the Lime and Soda make bone
and brain. It is the standard
scientific food for delicate
children.
