VALLEY RECOBD. HOME CURE FOR BLOOD POISON. 1 The People’s Paper. A8HLAND, Or....Thursday, Jan. 18, 1900 A preliminary statemo :t of mineral production in the United States in 1899 shows that the total production was valued in the place of production at 1414,738,414 as compared with $314,255,- 620 in 1898. William J. Stephens of Ogden, Utah, has filed a petition in voluntary bank ruptcy. His liabilities are placed at $555,852. No assets. The fire early Monday morning that destroyed the brick factory building in East Fifty-ninth street, New York, did $100,000 damage. The building was used in part as a storage warehouse by Bloomingdale Brothers, and they are the chief losesrs. There is not the slightest doubt that the doctors do more harm than good in treating Contagious Blood Poison; many victims of DalahiMArlr.

I was soon cured perfectly and my skin has been as clear as glass ever since. I cured my self at home, after the doctors had failed completely. It is valuable time thrown away to expect the doctors to cure Contagious Blood Poison, for the disease is be yond their skin.

They represent the Russian government in an official capacity, and came to the Pacific coast for the pur pose of recommending a terminus for a great Russian steamship line. The Rus sian government has decided to estab lish a line of steamers between Vladi vostok and some part of the Pacific coast of the United States. Mr. Ba- dynski and his two companions are commissioned to examine the ports of the Pacific and report on the advantages of each.

FOR THE BLOOD _ acts in an entirely different way from potash and mercury—it forces the poison out of the system and gets rid of it entirely. Hence it cures the disease, while other remedies only shut the poison in where it lurks forever, constantly undermining the constitution.

I used about ten bottles in all. I have been subject to miscarriage, having ten of them and two pre mature children. I was not troubled in the least this last time. I got stronger as each month progressed and went to my full time. I shall recommend Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription to all I meet who are troubled with female weak ness. There are several ladies taking the ‘ Fa vorite Prescription ’ since they have seen the benefit I received, and more no'doubt, will com mence its us? after knowing luy condition, as my progress was watched with much interest by many of my neighbors and friends.” “ My wife has used Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Pre scription when in a critical coudition, and finds it the best medicine on earth,” writes W. J. Journigan, of Rhinehart, Catahoula Par., La. " My wife had miscarried seven times, but with the last child she took nine bottles of the ‘ Fa vorite Prescription ’ and the child is now a large, fine lioy. The ' Favorite Prescription ’ makes childbirth easy.” Dr. Pierce lias for thirty years been at the head of that great, model sanitarium, the Invalids’ Hotel and Surgical Institute of Buffalo, N. Y., as its chief consulting phy sician. Here he has had an intimate, prac tical experience in this particular field of practice, which is probably unequaled by that of any physician in America. His unparalleled success in diagnosing disease and prescribing prompt and effect ive remedies is acknowledged by leading physicians everywhere. His ’’Favorite Prescription” has cured more cases of fe male complaint than all other medicines combined. It is the only proprietary rem edy devised for this express purpose by an accomplished, scientific physician. When you ask your druggist for Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription, and he says —“let me sell you something else just as good” ask him gently but firmly if his "just as good” medicine has a “just as good” record as Dr. Pierce’s, a “just as good ” physician behind it as Dr. Pierce, and carries with it “just as good” privi leges oi consultation and treatment, as do Dr. Pierce’s medicines. There are no medicines for female dis orders as good, as Dr. Pierce’s. In fact it is the only successful specific remedy for women prescribed and prepared by a graduated physician in regular prac tice and sold through druggists. Every woman would be benefited by the clearer knowledge of her physical self which she would obtain from Dr. Pierce’s Common Sense Medical Adviser, a splendid thousand - page volume, illustrated with over seven hundred engravings and several colored plates. More than half a million copies of this valuable book were sold at $1.50 each; but a paper-bound copy will now be sent free for the mere cost of ma;l- ing—21 one-ccnt stamps, which should be inclosed to World’s Dispensary Medical Association.

Several times shooting has oc curred, some of the cases proving fatal. Hundreds of acres of land in Fresnc county were flooded recently by the overflowing of the San Joaquin. George Bonny, a California pioneer, and member of the firm of George C. Shreve & company of San Francisco, died of pneumonia at Bordentown, N. J., last week. Dr. William A. Hammond, former surgeon-general of the army, died at Washington a few days ago. Earl Newton was killed in a hotel at Los Angeles while engaged in running an elevator. Go See, a Chinese murderer, was hanged at San Quentin Friday. Go See was convicted of murdering a fellow- countryman at Porterville. The evi dence was entirely circumstantial. D. E. Knight, a wealthy pioneer resi- denty of Marysville, where he had re sided since 1858, died of heart disease. He was prominently identified with the banking and commercial interests of that section for many years, and was a prominent Mason. Financial troubles have overtaken the Santa Clara county agricultural society and its property will probably be sold to square its accounts. Several cases of black plague have appeared in Honolulu, each being fatal. Joseph Speicher, a native of Ger many, aged 68 years, an inmate of the county infirmary at Napa, committed suicide at that institution by hanging himself.

It is impossible to avoid the feeling that kindly nature would not allow her own best pui poses to be defeated, without some fault or short - coming on the part of the woman who longs to be a mother; and ex perience shows that in a large number of cases the difficulty lies in some unnatural weakness, which, by proper and reasonable means is altogether remediable. So ite and sacred a subject cannot be treated in any but a serious, and at the same time a sensible spirit. It is purely a feeling <*i gratitude and a desire that other women like themselves shall be made happy and contented that prompted the writing of the following letters with the express permission that they be published here: • Representative Needham appeared be-[ fore the committee on Indian affairs I recently and secured the insertion in tae appropriation bill under consider ation of an item calling for $75,000 for a new Indian school in Southern Califor nia. He asked for an appropriation of $100,000, but in view of the fact that the present congress proposes to use the pruning knife wherever possible, he was very fortunate in securing the assent of Chairman Sherman and the other mem bers of the committee to so large a sum. Montague Rogers, a retired Ohio at torney, who has lived in San Jose for a number of years died there some days ago. He was quite wealthy. The historic Hartford was floated out of the drydock, at Vallejo, where the vessel has been detained for nearly three months. The detention was caus ed by the discovery of unsound outside planking by Naval Constructor Hibbs, who was determined that the Hartford’s condition should be as good as her re cord when the construction department was through with her. The Hartford is now iu prime condition. Ou leaving the dock she had the largest sized colors at each masthead and fired a salute oi 13 guns. A drunken row among Indians at Pineville, Or., resulted in the shooting to death of a man and woman and prob able fatal injury of another man and two woman.
