Cormrg. amd ¥ M o Sowed f\w\: o ourd - Sodud Y N e Dodor could Mok St U g Mo - ?msvs\i.‘:tm-— armd so0sha qéo'h - reDf.-R V:Punu ] Many mothers of families in the United States have reason to be grateful to. the erson who recommended Dr. Pierce’s ‘avorite Prescription. This is a medi- cine specially prescribed for diseases of womankind. It does not cure eczema, catarrh in all its forms, nor heart dis- eage, for it is put up for the single pur- pose of curing diseases peculiar to women. It has a reputation of over a third of a century of cures, and has gold more largely on this continent than any other medicine for women. Another point in its favor—it does not contain a single drop of alcohol or harmful habit-forming drugs. 1t is urely vegetable and perfectly harm- Pess in any condition of the system. An alcoholic compound for women is something no woman should take and yet “Favorite Prescription” is the only tonic and nervine put up for sale through druggists, especially for wom- an’s weaknesses, that does not contain alcobol and that too in large quantities. Womanly weakness will always bring nervous irritability and a nervous con- dition, for which alcohol is the worst thing in the world. What a woman thus afflicted needs is a vegetable tonic and invigorating nervine like Doctor Pierce’s Favorite Prescription, which will build up her delicate system and bring about a healthy tone. It cures the drains and weaknesses of women, also displacements, as prolapsus, ante- version, retroversion, irregular and painful periods and kindred ailments. If you want to know what ails you the United States mail will bring you theé best medical advice for only the coet of writing materials and stamps. Many women owe their present good health to the fact that they consulted Dr. Pierce by letter, giving him all pos- sible information about their condition, symptoms, etc., and received in return good medical advice which cost them nothing. This is why we advise you to write to Dr. R. V. Pierce, the founder of the Invalids’ Hotel and Surgical Institute, at Buffalo, N. Y. ‘Dr. Pierce by no m-eans confines himself to prescribing his well-known roprietary medicines. He tells you fn the most common-sense way what ails you, what you ought to do, what il Dl line of treatment should be followed out in your particular case, and if your case does ‘not indicate the need of his proprietary medicine, he tells you plainly and frankly what you do meed, and the best possible method of im- proving your health. If you are a young woman just entering upon the duties of life, you should have good medical advice of a confidential nature. If you’re the mother of children, you may want advice about yourself and how best to put your system in order that your children may be healthy. To sufferers from chronic diseases which do not readily yield to treatment, or to people who are past the youthful stage of life and want confidential advice about their ailments or their physical condition, Dr. Pierce offers careful cons sideration and the best medical advice within his power, free of cost. ¢ Favorite Prescription’ is indeed an ideal medicine for women, and by far the best I have known to restore lost health and strength,” writes Mrs. R. C. Roelker, 24 Ingram Street, Henderson, Ky. “1I suffered misery for several ears, being troubled with flooding. [y back ached and I had bearing-down pains and frequent headaches. ould often awake from sleep in such pain and suffering it would be hours before 1 could close my weary eyes again. I dreaded the long nights as well as the weary days. physicians hoping to get relief, but find- ing that their medicine did not seem to cure me I tried Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription, as a friend had recom- mended it so strongly. Am glad that I followed her advice for it was the only medicine for me. Every ache and pain has gone, and not only this, my gen- eral health has improved. I feel well and strong, have a fine appetite, have gained flesh and never looked better. My advice to suffering women is to take the ‘Favorite Prescription’ and they will never be disappointed with the results.” Formula printed on wrapper.

NEXT summer Beltrami county will have a grain growing contest to which will be eligible all the pupils of the public schools of the county. The idea of such a contest originated with County Superintendent of Schools J. J. Regan, who has now interested the citizens of Bemidji in the project to such an extent that that they have subscribed several hundreds of dollars to be given in prizes to the children who are successful in the contest. The importance of this move can hardly;be estimated. Every pupil in the county will take a lively interest in the contest, and it is certain that specimens of grain will be exhibited as a result of the contest thelike of which have never been seen in the county, as only the best seed will be furnished - and of course the most desirable = plots of ground for the variety of grain selected by the pupils will be! sown. The result will be that hundreds, yes thousands of specimens, of the finest grain ever produced in the county will be shown. g Why would it not be a good idea to take some of the grain grown in this contest and make an an exhibit at the state fair next fall?' Itis well known in this section that no better farm- ing land can be found than in Beltrami county, but the truth of this statement can never be es- tablished in the minds of our southern Minnesota neighbors until the right kind of an ex- hibit is made at the state fair. Beltrami county is considered by many a wilderness of timber and swamps, and until our farm products are ‘‘shown up,” it will be still considered so. Two years does not satisfy a state officer—especially since the dominent party has not tasted of the fruits of victory for very many years. The gubernatorial appointees will not lay down easily next fall but will scrap like demons for perpetuation in office for they enjoy a snap and the salary that goes with it to well to let up. The manto go against Gov. Johnson has 'not . yet been selected and ho one seems to go after the honor with abnormal greed for he will have something to do all must adwmit. The time is ripe to select a man who, in every way, fius theoffice and then he must have the united support of the party he represents. Whoisit?>—Granite Falls Tribune.
