Hearst will see that <1,500,000 is fur

it seems to count it a credit to lie
about political opponents, at least to
attempt to mislead and deceive.

Quickening War.
A magazine correspondent, just

a year studying that country fiom a
commercial point of view, says: “Jap

as the greatest power on th» globe.
If the manufacturers and men of
America do not wake up the Japanese
will soon be their superior in all

the patron of civilization and educa
tor and leader of the world, ’’’he fed

A New Departure.
CONVENTION
HAVE YOU REACHED IT?
Have you reached that point where
you’ve had to stop eating what you
liked ? Are you living on toast and tea,
or oatmeal—crackers and milk, coveting
the good things you don’t dare eat ? Do
you go to the table dreading the penalty
of the meal aud its after suffering? You
can be cured so that you can eat any
thing you want, eat it with appetite and
digest it properly. Here’s the proof :
” I was a great sufferer with dyspepsia
for over two years, and I was a complete
physical wreck,” writes Mr. Preston F
Fenstermacher, of Egypt, Lehigh Co.,
Pa. " Had many torturing, gnawing and
aching pains—I think about all that a
dyspeptic has or ever could have. I also
suffered much with constipation. I tried
many different medicines which were
recommended to cure the trouble, but
these only made me worse and my con
dition was more sluggish and weak than
before. My stomach was in such a weak
condition that the least
and easiest kind of food
to digest would get sour
in my stomach, and I had
such a weak ^pdz debili
tated appearance that it
seemed as if I had hardly
any blood in my whole
body. Muscles were soft
and flabby, circulation
poor and slow. Suffered
greatly from cold hands
and feet. At last I came
across an advertisement
of Dr. Pierce’s. I read
it through and thought
to myself this firm must
have some sympathy with
suffering humanity.
I
wrote to them for a ques
tion list blank, which X
filled out and returned to
them, stating my symp
toms and pains. To my
great surprise I received
by return mail the best
and most substantial ad
vice that I ever before
read
This advice gave
me the greatest confi
dence in the World’» Dis
pensary Medical Associa
tion, even so great that I
at once left off all formes
remedies and tried Dr
Pierce’s Golden Medical
Discovery and ‘ Pleasant
Pallets.’ I used about eight vials of th«
‘ Pellets ’ and ten bottles of the ‘ Discov
ery ’ which brought me back to my
former state of health.’’
TO BE KEPT IN MIND.

disorder of the stomach keep this in
