At on« of the London public hos
pitals a special point is wade of pivipu
alcohol to the patients as rarely am)
sparely as possible; and each tiuio
that one of the physicians does so hs
submits a special entry of the reasons
that actuated him. In the thirty-two
years of the existence of the hospital
alcohol has only been given seventy-
one times. The cases received are
exactly like those received by all the
other hospitals. For 1904 they num
bered 1337 in - patients only. The
death-rate among these was 7.3 per
cent. For the same year the average
death - rate among the other London
ublic hospitals was 9.1 per cent,
herefore the use of alcohol in sick
ness is not to be regarded as a neces
sity. Although most physicians pre
scribe alcohol in solution with drugs
for their patients—there was one phy
sician of national reputation who dh)
not believe in using alcohol. Many
years ago when Dr. B. V. Pierce de.
cided to put up bis valuable " Prescrip
tion” for the diseases of women in a
" ready to use ” form — he used as a
solvent and preservative chemically
pure glycerine of proper strength,
which is a better solvent and preserva
tive of the active medicinal principles
residing in most of our indigenous or
native plants than is alcohol. Dr.
Pierce found that the glycerine, be
sides being entirely harmless, possesses
intrinsic medicinal properties of great
value.
No woman who is suffering from
Inflammation, from the pains and
drains incident to womanhood can
afford to be without Dr. Pierce’s Fa
vorite Prescription. An honest medi-
cine which has the largest number of
cures to its credit and a deserved popu
larity for two score years all over the
United States. Dr. Pierce tells you
just what is contained in his " Favorite
Prescription.”

Persons who are subject to any of

In proof of their superior excellence it
can truthfully be said that they are
always adopted as a household reme 'y
after the first trial.
One little "P ellet” is a laxative, two
are cathartic. They regulate, invigor
ate and cleanse the liver, stomach and
bowels. As a " dinner pill,” to promote
digestion, take one each day. To re
lieve the distress arising from over
sating, nothing equals one of these
little "Pellets.” They’re tiny, sugar-
coated, anti-bilions grannies, scarcely
larger than mustard seeds.

A. C. Arm strong, a farm er re
siding four miles southeast of
Plainview , au d 10 miles southeast
of A lbany, will realize a profit of
$4800 ou 130 acres of vetch he
threshed this week, writes an A lb a
ny correspondent. Incidentally he
will clear up about $6000 this year
ou a farm of 400 acres, for which
he pays an an n u al rental of $600.
Some other Linn county farmers
are doing almost as well, aud
farm iug in the W illam ette valley
is paying better th an for m any
years.
Arm strong had 140 acres in
vetch this year.
He mowed 30
acres of it, an d after storing his
b arn s full of loose hay for his w in
te r’s supply, he had enough left
over from th e 30 acres to bale 30
tons, which is worth $13 a ton.
T he vetch on the rem aining 130
acres was threshed for seed by the
thresher and cleaner of Parker
Bros, this week, and Arm strong
h ad seventy tons of threshed and
cleaned vetch seed from his 130
acres. This is worth four cents a
pound in the present m arket, aud
after A rm strong pays all expenses
of threshing, cleaning, etc., he will
realize a net profit of $4800 on the
vetch-seed alone, to say nothing of
the vetch hay he baled.
In addition to his 140 acres of
vetch, Arm strong has 300 acres in
spring oats, w hich is in splendid
condition and will doubtless return
a big yield and give him an ad
ditional profit of several hundred
dollars for the y ea r’s work.

WOMEN’ S WOES.
Administrator's Notice.
Cottage Grove Women Are Finding
Relief at Last.
It ilues seem that women have more
than a fair share of the aches amt pains
that afflict humanity ; they must “keep
up,” must attend to duties in spite of
constantly aching backs, or headaches,
dizzy spelts, hearing-down paijis; they
must stoop over, when to stoop means
torture. They must walk and bend and
work witli racking pains and many aches
from kidney ills. Kidneys cause more
suffering than any other organ of the
body. Keep the kidneys well and health
is easily maintained. Read of a remedy
for kidneys only that helps and cures
the kidneys and is endorsed by people
you know,
Mrs, E. T. Hall, Cottage Grove, Ore
gon, says: "When 1 commenced using
Doan’s Kidney I’ills I was miserable as
a result of kidney complaint. I could
not stoop without stiff . ing from pains
jn my hack ami was often kept awake
at night on account of a dull achjng
through my loins. | used many medi
cines but the results were unsatisfactory
until I procure Doan’s Kitlney Pills at
Benson’s Pharmacy. I was surprised
ami delighted at the quick relief 1 re
ceived and was so encouraged that I
continued until completely cured. My
general health is now so much better
that I feel that I can conscientiously
recommend Doan's Kidney Pills.”
