BAD FOR PICNICS.
No doubt the recent expose of
the conditions governing the
meatpacking establishments of
our beloved country is responsi
ble for real hardship and incon
venience to citizens of both high
and low degree. From the view
point of the packer it seems an
outrage that he could not label
any kind of a product and sell it
tothe dear people.
We have noted a wail from
this class of cattle to the effect
that they would submit without
protest to some slight restric
tions in the manner of their oper
ations. Just so! But when a
"slight restriction" will not in
sure the general public against
meat unfit for a dog our presi
dent and our people are justified
in everv kind of measure to in
sure pure food.
Just at this season of the year
picnic time it is unfortunate
from the housewife's standpoint
that the expose occurred when
it did. No more canned meat
of any sort for a picnicker, be he
patrician or plebeian, and the
good woman who acts as hostess
this season must know some
thing of the history of the meats
she provides, be they of chicken
or ox. In ignorance there is
bliss, ut for a woman to secure
canned meat for her guests at
the present stage of the game is
to ba too ignorant to permit of
any hope of bliss in the outcome
In all seriousness we are com
pelled to go back some eight
years and consider the "embalm
ed beef" scandal raised by Gen
eral Miles during the Spanish
American - war. The packers
were too strong with the seat of
government and the powers that
rule and General Miles was cried
down and forced out of the
game. It must be a satisfaction
to the general and his friends to
to observe the state of affairs at
present with President Roosevelt
in the saddle.
ARGUMENTS OF TRADE.
Trade statistics published by
the Department of Commerce
and Labor show our foreign trade
to be far greater for the present
year than for any preceding
year.
The gain in imports is one hun
dred million dollars, and in ex
ports two hundred million dollars
over last year, while our whole
foreign trade exceeds three bil
lion dollars. Fifty million dol
lars is the gain in manufactured
commodities, and one hundred
and fifty millions the gain in
agricultural products exported.
This is a most gratifying show
ing and positive evidence of our
rapid development and the pros
perity of our people. We are importing-
more largely of raw ma
terial to be used in manufactur
ing than ever before, and we are
exporting more largely, both of
manufactured commodities and of
agricultural products, and have
a lanre trade balance in our favor
that is, we sell more to foreign
countries than we buy of them.
Those who are continually
barking for tariff revision and
railing against the Dingley tariff
should find themselves silenced
in face of these facts. They do
not, however. On the contrary
they argue if we bought more of
loreign countries they would buy
more of us. They argue thus in
spite of the fact that there is no
sentiment in trade and com
merce. Engla .! b;: our wheat
and food stuffs o;.iy because she
needs them, mus: have them.
We might take her whole manu
factured output yet her need
would remain the determining
factor of her purchases of us. If
she could buy all the wheat she
needed more cheaply of Russia
she would do so, even though
our blast-furnaces became cold
and our rail mills stood idle that
we might buy pig-iron and steel
rails from her. We do not place
raw materials of certain kinds on
the free list and import large
quantities of them because we
sell goods to the countries which
have such materials, but because
we need them and must import
them since we do not produce
them.
Our people are prosperous chief
y because they first supply their
demands and requirements, as
far as possible, by their own
hands their own labor. Our
country is so large, our climate,
soil, industries and products
are so varied and desirable, and
our facilities for general distribu
tion of our products so good that
our inter-state commerce is all
the free-trade we need. This is
the trade that makes us prosper
ous and happy, and whatever en
courages that trade and preserves
it to our own people enhances
their prosperity and happiness.
Free-trade with foreign peoples
most assuredly would be, and
ever has been, destructive of our
own beneficent inter-state free
trade.
When this sort of free-trade
has made our people so prosper
ous that they can purchase dia
monds and precious stones more
largely than ever before it would
be suicidal to molest it.

Woman's Trials.
The bitter trail in a woman's life Is to
be childless. Who can tell how Lard
struggle may have been ere she learnt to
resign herself to her lonely lot? The ab
sence of this link to bind mnrital life
together, the absence of this one pledge
to mutual affection Is a common disap
pointment. Many unfortunate couples
become estranged thereby. Even if they
do not drift apart, one may read the whole
extent of their disappointment in the eves
of such si childless coupie v.iien they r i
or; the chii iron of others. To them the
la rjrest f aiiihy does not seem too numerous.
.in many cases cf barrenness or child
lessness tne obstacle to chlld-bep.rirs is
easily removed by the cure of weakness on
the part of the woman. Dr. Pierce's Fa
vorite Prescription has been the moans of
restoring health and fruitfulncss to many
a barre n woman, to the great jov of the
household. In other, but rare cases, the
obstruction to the tearing of children has
been found to be of a surgical character
but easily removable by painless operative
treatment at tho Invalids' Hotel and Sur
gical Institute. Buffalo. IS. Y.. over which
Dr. Pierce of the "Favorite Prescription"
fame presides. In all cases where chil
dren are desired and are absent, an ciTcrt
should be made to find out the real cause
since it is generally so easily removed bv
proper treatment.
In ali the various veaknerccs. disp'ar-e-monts,
prolapsus, inflammation and de
bilitating, catarrhal drains end in rll
cases of nervousness and debility, Dr
Pierce's Favorite Prescription is the most
efficient remedy that can pcssiblv be used.
It has to its credit hundreds of thousands
of cures more in fact than any other
remedy put up for sale through drurri5t
especially for woman's use. The ingredi
ents of which the "Favorite Presentation "
is composed have received the most
positive endorsement from the leadine
medical writers on Materia Mcdica of all
the several schools of practice. All tbo
ingredients are printed in plain Eunlish
on the wrapper enclosing tho bottlo, so
that any woman making use of this
famous medicine mav know exactly what
she is taking. Dr Pierce takes his pa
tients into his full confidence, which he
can afford to do as the formula after
which the "Favorite. Prescription is
made will bear the most careful exam
ination. -
