O’LEARY & BOWSER 4 P 4 P IS DISEASE A CRIMNE? Not so very long ago, a popular | condition of the lining membranes of the magazine published an editorial article in which the writer asserted, in sub- stance, that all disease should be re- garded as criminal. Certain it is, that much of the sickness and suffering of mankind_is due to the violation of cer- tain of Nature’s laws, which, if under- stood and implicitly followed, would result in the prevention of much of the sickness and suffering of humanity. But to say that all sickness should be regarded as criminal, must, on a little sober reflection, aypenl to every rea- sonable and intelligent individual as radically wrong. Thousands suffer from contagious and infectious diseases most innocently and unconsciously contracted. Other thou- sands suffer and die of cancerous affec- tions, the cause of which no medical man has yet been wise enough to fer- ret out and determine, and which can not, therefore, be avoided. Then too, many times stress of circumstances compel people to expose themselves to various disease-producing agencies, such as malaria, bad air in overheated factor- ies, coal mines, and many other situations, and surely those who suffer therefrom should not be branded as criminals. In-so-far as disease is contracted or brought on one’s self from harmful ex- cesses, over-eating, intemperance and other like indulgencies and debauchery, we think, with our editor friend; that it should be regarded as little less than criminal. On the other hand, we think it would be harsh, unsympathetic, cruel, yes criminal, to condemn” the poor, weak, over-worked housewife who sinks under the heavy load of household cares and burdens which she is obliged to struggle along under until she succumbs to the strain and over-exertion, and suffers from weaknesses, arious displacemen of pelvic organs and other derangements peculiar to her sex. The too frequent bearing of childran, | ailments, and sol with its exacting demands upon the sys- tem, coupled with the care, worry and labor of rearing a large family, is often the cause of weakness, derangements and debility which the mother has to bear | and which are aggravated by the many household cares, and the hard, and never- ending work which she is called upon to perform. Dr. Pierce, the maker of that world-famed remedy for women’s peculiar ills—Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription— says that one of the greatest obstacles to the cure of this class of maladies is the fact that the poor, overworked housewife can not get the needed rest from her many household cares and labor to enable | her to secure from the use of his “Pres- | cription ” its full benefits. Itis a matter of frequent experience, he says, in his extensive practice in these cases, to meet | with those in which his treatment fails by reason of the patient’s inability to ab- stain from hard work long enough o be cured. With those suffering from pro- lapsus, ante-version apd retro-version of the uterus or other displacenient of the womanly organs, itis very neces- sary that, in addition to taking his *Fa- vorite Prescription” thef,' abstain from being very much, or for long peri their feet. All heavy lifting or straining of any kind should also be avoided. As much out-door air as possible, with mod- erl'te, light exercise is also very import- ant. It is Dr. Pierce’sobservation that many housewives suffer mueh in a weakened condition of their system from too close confinement in-doors. . Often the kitchen, h end most of their time, is {lly ventila and the bad air and over- heating thereof act most unfavorably upon the. woman’s strength, until she finds herself suffering from various weak- pelvic organs, attended, perhaps, with tenderness and pain in these regions. Now, while all the foregoing disagree- able symptoms and sensations will gen- erally yield to the faithful and somewhat persistent use of Dr, Pierce’s Favorite Prescription, to realize the very best results from its use, the patient must, as far as possible, abstain from over-work, worry, and too close confinement in-doors. To such women as are not seriously out of health, but who have exacting duties to perform, either in the way of house- hold duties or in social duties and func- tions which seriously tax their strength, as well as to nursing mothers, the “Fa- vorite Prescription” has proved a most valuable supporting tonic and invigorat- ing nervine. By its timely use, much serious sickness and suffering may be avoided. The operating table and the surgeons’ knife, would. it is believed, seldom have to be resorted to if this. most valuable woman’s remedy were resorted to in good time. The “Favorite Prescrip- tion ” has proven a great boon to expectant mothers by preparing the system for the coming of baby, thereby rendering child- birth safe, easy. and almost painless. Bear in mind, please, that Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription is not a secret or atent medicine, against which the most intelligent people are quite naturally averse, because of the uncertainty as to their harmless character, but is a medi- cine of known composition, a full list of all its ingredients being printed, in plain English. on every bottle wrapper. An tion of this list of ingredients will the fact that it is non-alcoholic mposition, chemically pure glyc- <ing the place of the commonly used alcohol, in its make-up. In this con- nection it may not be out of place to state that the “Favorite Prescription” of Dr. Pierce is the only medicine put up for the cure of woman’s {)eculiar weaknesses and d through druggists, that does not contain alcohol, and that too in large.quantities. Furthermore, it is the only medicine for woman’s special dis- eases, the ingredients of which have the unanimous endorsement of all the leading medical writers and teachers of all the several schools of practice, and that too remedies for the ailments for which “Favorite Prescription ” is recommended. A little book of these endorsements wili be sent to amy address, post-paid, and absolutely free if you request same by ostal card, or letter, of Dr. R. V. Pierce, uffalo, N. Y. Don’t forget that Dr. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription, for woman’s weaknesses and delicate ailments. is not a patent or secret medicine, being the “Favorite Prescrip- tion” of a regularly educated and gradu- ated physician, engaged in the practice of his chosen specialty—that of diseases of women—thatitsingredients are printed in plain English on every bottle-wrapper; that it is the only medicine es ecially designed for the cure of woman’s diseases that contains no alcohol, and the only one that has a professional endorsement worth more than all the so-called “testi- lmicmials" ever published for other med- cines, ¢ 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. Every letter is carefully eonsidered, fully answered, and its statements held as strictly private and sacredly confidential.

Leaders .to Interview Rocsevelt, Can. non, and Fairbanks. ‘Washington, March 2( —In response to the call of President Samuel Gom- pers the executive council of the Amer- ican Federation'of Labor began a sey- eral days’ session here. The meetings are executive. It is understcod that among the subjects to be discusséd will be the controversy between the union printers and the Typothetae of the several cities. 3 An important feature of the pro- ceedings during the forencon session was that portion of the report of Pres- ident Gompers which referred to. the present state of labor legislation be- l fore congress. The unsatisfactory condition of this legislation from the point of view of the labor leaders here is such that the statement was made before the council that on Wednesday next President Gompers, Secretary Morrison and the members of the e ecutive council of the American Fed- eration of Labor, together with the presidents of some of the national and internationai trades unions, will have | interviews with President Roosevelt, Speaker Cannon and Vice President Fairbanks on the subjecl.
