— hob Monogram White Cherries Weak Women Made Str/ong,‘ - Sick:-Women Made Well. IN the above eight words is summed up. the great work for women which is accomplished by Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription. The record of cures effected by thig remedy is without a parallel. Thousands of testimonials received from patients and from physicians who have tested it in the more aggravated and obstinate cases which had baffled their skill, prove it to be the most wonderful remedy ever devised for the relief and cure of suf- fering women. It is composed wholly of medicinal principles extracted from the roots of native, American forest plants, pure triple-refined glycerine of proper strength, being used instead of harmful alcohol both in extracting and preserving these medicinal principles. IT IS A POWERFUL INVIGORATING TONIC, imparting health and strength in particular to the organs distinctly feminine. For weak and sickly women, who are “worn-out,” “run-down,” or debilitated, especially for women who work in store, office, or school-room, who sit at the typewriter ‘or sewing machine, or bear heavy household burdens, Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription will prove a priceless benefit because of its health-restor- ing and strength-giving power. AS A SOOTHING AND STRENGTHENING NERVINE, “Favorite Prescription” is unequaled and is invaluable in allaying and subduing nervous excitability, irritability, nervous exhaustion, nervous prostration, neu- ralgia, hysteria, spasms, chorea, or St. Vitus’s dance, and other distressing nervous symptoms commonly attendant upon functional and organic disease of the organs distinctly feminine. It induces refreshing sleep and relieves mental anxiety and despondency. CURES OBSTINATE CASES. “Favorite Prescription” is a positive cure for the most complicated and obsti- nate cases of leucorrhea, excessive flowing, painful periods, unnatural sup- pressions and irregularities, prolapsus or falling of the pelvic organs, weak back, “female weakness,” anteversion, retroversion, bearing-down sensations, chronic congestion, inflammation and ulceration of the uterus, inflammation, pain and tenderness over the ovaries and kindred ailments. s FREE CONSULTATION. An invitation is extended by Dr. Pierce to every sick and ailing woman to consult him by letter. There is absolutely no charge or fee for this consultation. Every letter is carefully considered, fully answered, and its statements held as strictly private and sacredly confidential. Address Dr. R.V. Pierce, Buffalo, N.Y. THE BADGE OF HONESTY. Each bottle of the above medicine bears upon its wrapper a badge of honesty in the full list of ingredients composing it—printed in plain English. This frank and open publicity places this medicine in a class all by itself. It cannot be classed as a patent nor eecret medicine for it is neither—being of known com- position. DR. PIERCE’S PLEASANT PELLETS cure biliousness, sick and bilious headache, dizziness, costiveness, or constipa- tion of the bowels, loss of appetite, coated tongue, sour stomach, windy belchings, “heart-burn,” pain and distress after eating, and kindred derangements of the liver, stomach and bowels. One little “Pellet” is a laxative, two are cathartic. They regulate, invigorate and cleanse the liver, stomach and bowels. As a “dinner pill,” to prombte digestion, take one each day. To relieve the distress arising from over-eating, nothing equals one of these little “Pellets.” They’re tiny, sugar-coated, anti- bilious granules, scarcely larger than mustard seeds.

By A. KAISER. Entered in the péstoffice at Bemidii. Minn., as second class matter. SUBSCRIPTION $5 PER YEAR Bede Opens Up. The following are a few of the hot shots J. Adam Bede let fly in the recent debate on the state- hood bill: “Mr. Payne refers with pride to New York, also to its senators; most of the people are trying to forget the senators just now.’”’ “When you want to whip us of the west into line, you refer to Mr. Roosevelt as ‘The Great President,’ but when he favors a measure which the east does not want you call him ‘The Broncho Statesman.’ ”’ “As for New England, the Pil- grims would not have landed there at all only they were sea- sick.” J. Adam must have forgntten the text line of the sermon he al- ways preached through the col- umns of his paper, ‘“Love One Another.” Alfaro’s Fifth. The news that General Eloy is at the head of the Ecuador revolution explains a good deal. General . Alfaro is one of the few remaining repre- sentatives of a type of South Americans who were so common fifteen or twenty years ago that they came to be known as profes- sional revolutionists. In his younger days he was the friend and associate of most of the famous revolutionists of other South American countries and this is at least his tifth revolution in Ecuador. The number may be somewhat greater, for his- torians are not very painstaking in keeping count of South American revolutions. The most famous of Alfaro’s revolutions occurred in 1895. At the time he had been living for some fifteen or sixteer years in Panama, whither he had been exiled after an unsuccessful in- surrection. He kept up his as- sociation with the leading revolu- tionists of South America, while nominally living the life of a simple business man. He was however, gathering funds and perfecting an organization. When the time came to strike he went to New York and kought a good supply of arms and ammunition, as all wise revolutionists do His equipment proved to be so much better than that of the Government that he gained an easy victory. He had bardly made himself President when a counter-revolution was raised against him, but he put it down with great energy. After that he served his four years peace- fully and was re-elected, so he did not go'out of office will 1901. Then he turned the government oyer to General Plaza, who also served out his term in peace and last August turned the govern- ment over to President Garcia, accepting appointment as minis- ter to the United States for himself. Garcia, it appears, did not suit Alfaro, who perhaps had begun Chamberlain’s The Children’s Favorite ---CURES:--- Coughs, Colds, Croup and ‘Whooping Cough. ‘This remedy is famous for its cures over Lots for sale by Bemidji Townsite & Improvement Co H.

At any rate, it was Alfaro who organized the present revolt and who has triumphed almos: be- fore people realized what he was about. Alfaro is a Liberal and stands | particularly as an opponent of church influence in politics. He was opposed bitterly by the church leaders in his insurrec- tion of 1895. some priests and bishops even taking the field against him. After his triumph, there was a great exodus of members of religious orders and other clericals to Colombia and Peru. Warning to Nelson. The Preston Times sends out the following warning to the friends of Senator Knute Nelson in the state: “The Times has consistently and persistently op- posed the entering of nationality into politics, but we have on sev- eral occasions been forcibly re- minded that nationality does cut a big swath and it is not likely to be eliminated in the near future. DEATH LIST NOW (19, THIRTY-FIVE PERSONS ON BOARD ‘s\'rE*AMER VALENCIA REACH SHORE SAFELY. \ EXPERIENCE TERRIBLE SUFFERING RAFT CONTAINING TWENTY REF- UGEES PICKED UP BY A RE- LIEF VESSEL. Victoria, B. C, Jan. 26.—Though there is faint hope that incoming ves- sels may bring a few survivors of the steamer Valencia, which went ashore late Monday night and which broke up on the rocks Wednesday, there are only thirty-five survivors of the 154 persons who were on board the Valen- cia when she struck near Klanawa rocks, five miles from Cape Beale. The known saved are twenty persons who were picked up from a life raft by the steamer City of Topeka and the fifteen survivors who put off from the wreck in two boats and succeeded in reach ing Vancouver island. Iverson, Jacobson, Nelson: three Norwegians for three of the best offices in the state. With the two former elected we can already hear the hue and cry against the hoggish propensities of the men from the North with the hope of defeating the re elec- tion of Senator Nelson.” Russia Promises Sunlight. One of the rays of sunlight in Russia is the summary retire- ment of nineteen generals be- cause they are hostile to the pro- posed reforms., They are up- holders of the old bureaucracy and the bad ways of the bureau- cracy. And as it cannot be per- ceived that they have been useful in the council of war, they can well be spared. Perhaps their going will put the army in closer sympathy with the reforms. But this is not the chief benefit of their re- moval. This wholesale head-lop- ping is a notice that the Govern- ment does intend to clean out its bureaus and try sincerely to es- tabli‘sh the reforms. The retire- ment of nineteen useless gen- erals does not do away with all the obstructions, but it indicates that the Government means to level or get around obstacles and establish better 1hings in Russia. Porto Ricans Complain. There are eleven members of the executive council of Porto Rico. Five members are Porto Ricans, the other six are from this country. The five complain that the six Americans do not consult with them, nor even invite them to meetings of the council. Itis no wonder that the native members feel aggrieved. If what they say is true, they can complain of bad manners on the part of their fellow members, as well as more serious things. The majority owed courtesy to the minority, even if it did not care for its advice. If Porto Rico had been brought unwillingly under the American flag, the treatment of the island- ers could be more easily justi- fied, As amatter of fact the Porto Ricans welcomed the United States troops in 1898, But General Miles’ proclamation of the good things to be enjoyed under American rule gave no hints of the slights which the is not surprising that the Porto Ricans fayor the reorganization of the island government. HOPEFUL OF RECOVERY. Wheeler's Condition Shows No Change for Worse. New York, Jan. 2».—General Joseph Wheeler, who is ill with pneumonia at the home of his sister in Brooklyn, is holding his own, according to a state- ment made by Sterling Smith, General ‘Wheeler’s brother-in-law, on the au- thority-of Dr. A. J. McCorkle. General ‘Wheeler was a little weaker, but his relatives were made hopeful by ‘the assurance of the doctor that the pass- ing of each day improved the general’s chance of recovery. All of .General Wheeler’s daughters are now with * him. islanders have since received. It PROFESSIONAL ..CARDS.. LAWYERS. D. H. FISK Attorney and Counsellor at Law Office opposite Hotel Markham. P.
