Recent experiment* conducted by most
eminent scientists, prove that light is s
great remedial agent; it is essentially
Nature’s agent. It may be either sun-
light or electric light, but it has a de-
cided effect in helping nature to banish
disease and restore health. Other scien-
tific men have proved that oxygen elec-
trifies the heart and can prolong life.
The people on this earth are tusceptible
to some laws which govern plant life. A
plant cannot be successfully grown in the
dark A man is Helitom healthy and strong
who lives in the dark or in sunless rooms
After all, Nature's way* are found to he
the heat. Nature's remedies are always
best for eradicating disease, and by this we
mean a medicine made of roots and herbs.
They are assimilated in the atomarh and
taken up by the blood sod are, therefore,
the most potent mean* which can be em-
ployed for the regaining of lost health.
l)t K. V Pierce, consulting physician to
the Invalids’ Hotel and Surgical Institute,
at Buffalo, N V., in many years of exten-
sive practice, found that he could pin his
faith 10 an alterative extract of certain
lanta and roots lor the cure of all blood
iwases This he called Dr. Pierce’s
Golden Medical Discovery. Containing no
alcohol nor narcotics, entirely vegetable
this " Discovery ' makes rich red blood and
Isa powerful tissue builder, giving the tired
business man or woman renewed strength
and health. Rapidly growing school gills
and hoys often show impoverished blood
by the pimples or boils which appear on
face or neck, To eradicate the poisons
from the blood, and feed the heart, lungs
and stomach on pure blood, nothing is
•o good as Or. Pierce's Golden Medical
Discovery.
Don't allow the dealer to insult your in-
telligence by offering his own blood rem-
edy to you Instead of this well known
preparation of Dr Pleice'a. Ten chances
to one be will substitute a cheap compound
having a large percentage of alcohol in it.
Dr. Pierce's Pellets ate the beat for the
bow* la Use thru with the * Discovery."
WASHINGTON LETTER.
Bditon Journal—
Representative Cowherd, chair-
man of the congressional campaign
committee, is back at bis headquar-
ters in the Riggs House, after a
visit to New York. That visit
deems to have been productive, as
Mr, Cowherd was engaged drawing
checks when your correspondent
called yesterday. lie is greatly
pleased, uot only with the demo-
cratic handbook which is out after
running the Manhattan gantlet,
but especially with Judge Parker’s
letter of acceptance, which he is
issuing as a campaign document by
the million. Chatting with Mr.
Cowherd was Steward W. Walker
of Martinsburg, W. Va., candidate
for congress against representative
Payton. He is making a whirlwind
canvass and declares that he is sure
ef winning. The state now has a
tsofid congressional republican dele-
gation in both Senate and House,
but Mr. Walker thinks that the
democrats will this year elect two
and probably three members.
The democratic campaign text-
book now being sent out .in cart-
loads, consists of over 300 pages
largely occupied with the liveliest
speeches ot the leading democrats
in cougress. The most space is
given to “imperialism” and "the
tariff and trusts.” Great emphasis
Is placed on the well known fact
that Americans are compelled to
pay much higher prices for our
own manufactured goods than for-
eigners do. Nearly all kinds of
hardware, implements, machinery,
tools, paints, oils, ammunition,
watches, baking-powder, condensed
milk, canned goods, and nearly
every kind of steel products, are
shown to be sold to bur consumers
•t prices a quarter larger than
those paid for the same goods by
Europeans. Ample demonstration
is furnished that almost all of our
exports of iron and steel merchan-
dise, amounting to $111,000,000
last year are sold iu the European
market at altout four-fifths the j
price charged to Americans. This, |
of .-ourse, results from our iniqui- [
tious tariff. The tariff amounts to
111 to each American family, of
which only $16 52 goes iu the U.
S. treasury, and the balance $94
per family, or $1,600,000,000 for
the seventeen million families in
this country, goes to the protected
trusts. This is regarded as the
most effective arraignment of the
republican party that has yet been
made.

Sour Stomach
When the quantity of food taken
in too large or the quality too rich,
aour stomach is likely to follow,
and especially so if the digestion
has been weakened by constipation.
Eat slowly and not too freely of
easily digested food. Masticate the
food thoroughly. Let five hoars j
elapse between meals, and when
you feel a fullness and weight in
the region of the stomach After
eating, take Chamberlain's Mtomocli
and Liver Tablets and the sonr
stomach may be avoided. For sale

Three Jurors Cured
Of cholera morbus with one small
bottle of Chamberlain’s colic, chol-
era and diarrhoea remedy.
Mr. G. W. Fowler of Hightower,
Ala., relates an experience he had
while serving on a petit jury in a
murder case at Edwardsville, coun-
ty seat of Olebourne county, Ala-
bama. He says: •*While there I
ate some fresh meat and some touee
meat and it gave me cholera morbus
in a very severe form I was never
more sick in ray life and sent to the
drug store for a certain cholera
mixture, but the druggist sent me
a bottle of Chamberlain’s colic,
cholera and diarrhoea Remedy in-
stead, saying that he bad whnt I
sent for, but that this medicine was
so much» better he would rather
send it to me in the fix I was in. j
took one dose of it and was better
in five minutes. The second dosej
cured me entirely. Two fellow jur-
ors were afflicted in the same man-
ner ’and one small bottle cured tl •
three of us.’ For sale by Wm.
Hermes.
To the Public.
All persons are forbidden from
entering my pasture and taking
therefrom pecans. It is as much a !
violation for people to take pecans |
from the property of another as it i
is to steal any other article of pro-
perty. I have turned over my pe
can grove to Constable Lee Smith
with instructions to arrest any per-
son who enters upon same and
takes pecans therefrom. The pub-
lic will please regulate itself ac-
cordingly as under no conditions
will any person be granted per-
mission to enter same for the pur-
pose of getting pecans.
