« yonnjf man who practiced medicine
in a rural district became famous and
was called in consultation in many
towns and cities because of his suc
cess in the treatment of disease. This
was Dr. Pierce who afterward moved
to Buffalo. N. Y. He made up his
mind to place some of bis medicines
before the public, and he put up
what he called his " Favorite Pre
scription," and placed it with the
druggists in every state In thn Union.
For fifty years Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription has sold more largely
throughout the United States than
any other medicine of like character.
It’s the testimony of thousands of
women that it has benefited or en
tirely eradicated such distressing ail
monts as women are prone to. It is
now sold by druggists in tablet form
as well as liquid.
Zeigi.kh, adviae al! women
who suffer from feminine trouble to try
I)r. Pierce’s Favorite Prescription. I
shall never forget the good it nos done
for me. I feel like another woman now.
May God bless Dr. Pierce and his valu
able medicine. ”-M Bs . FtouiKCS

SECRETARY HOUSTON TO
RELIEVE STRAIN
SOUTH’S TRAK CONGESTED
Chairman Os Senate Reconstruction
Committee Sends Urgent Tele
gram To Treasury Secretary
New Orleans. —Employment of w r ar
finance corporation machinery to fa
cilitate movement of crops and re
lieve the financial tension through
out the country was recommended by
Senator William M. Calder of New
York, chairman of the senate com
mittee on reconstruction, in a tele
gram sent to David F. Houston, sec
retary of the treasury. The telegram
followed a hearing by the committee
on the housing situation in this sec
tion.
The telegram sent by Senator Cal
der follows;
‘‘Bankers and business men through
central and southern sections declare
commercial channels congested with J
unprecedented crops of cotton, wheat,
animal production and so forth and
financial tension extreme. Believe
this dangerous situation can be meas
urably relieved by employment of
finance corporation machinery, to fa- j
cilitate foreign distribution. This ,
machinery is in your hands. Cannot
too strongly urge its immediate em
ployment.
Senator Calder, in a statement made
dui ing the concluding session of the
hearing here, declared that it was
necessary to revive the war finance
corporation to prevent stagnation cf
business and consequent unemploy
ment of labor. “We have a surplus
of commodities and foreign countries
have great need for them,” he said,
“but they have no money with which
to buy. It has been strongly urged
by the producers of animal and agri
cultural products in the cities which
we have visited that we should make
every available effort to revive our
export trade through the agency of the
war finance corporation, which is
able to extend credit to American ex
porters and bankers upon good for
eign securities. Delegations of cotton
growers have come to me in New
Orleans, Memphis and St. Louis, rep
resentatives of farmers and wheat
growers have come to me in Kansas
City, Omaha, and DeMoines, produc
ers of animal products in Kansas City,
Omaha, St. Louis and Denver all
with the same story: that there is a
bat king up of trade from our ports
of export and that if this continues
and increases it will bring about se
rious consequences of unemployment
and financial strain.”

KING HAS SUPREME POWER
But There Are Reasons Why British
Monarch Does Not Exercise His
Royal Prerogative.
If the king did all he might do with
out exceeding his royal
the nation would be startled. He exs
veto a bill passed in both houses; he
can dissolve and summon parliament;
he can select or dismiss his ministers;
he can declare war; he can make
treaties and create peers; he can ap
point bishops, governors and judges—
and all “on his own.” He could cede
the duchy of Cornwall to a foreign
power, disband the army and navy,
and sell the dreadnaughts and naval
stores. He could give every govern
ment official, from the highest to the
lowest, the “push,” could pardon all
criminals, and could stop the whole
machinery of government. But there
is an unwritten law of common sense,
fortified by long usage, which makes it
unthinkable that the king should do
these things; and in the last resort,
which is never likely to occur, the
king, being a constitutional monarch,
reigns by the will of the people, and
could be deposed by act of parliament.
