WISHES SUCCESS TO
CUTICURA REMEDIES
"After using Cuticura Soap, Oint-
ment, and Pills, I am very glad to say
I am entirely relieved of that itching
humor of the head and scalp which i
was bothered with quite a length of
time. I did not use the Cuticura Rem-
edies more than three times before I
began to get better, and now I am com-
pletely well. I suffered with that humor
on my head, and found no relief until I
took the Cuticura Remedies. 1 think
I used several cakes of Cuticura Soap,
three boxes of Ointment, and two vials
of Tills. I am doing all 1 can to publish
the Cuticura Remedies, for they have
done me good, and 1 know they will do
others the same. With best wishes for
your success " Mrs. Mat tie Jackson,

"1 had been suffering for twelve
years with a sore on my limb, and had
physicians give me treatment, and none
gave me yny relief until I got hold of
the Cuticura Soap and Ointment, and
I was cured sound and well with one
cake of Cuticura Soap and one box of

more." D. M. Robertson,

IN THE NATIONAL GUARD.
Washington, D. C., April 21.—Weeks
ago In these letters Senator Bailey's
position cn the court review amend-
ment to the rate bill was analyzed as,
after all, a review as to whether the
rate or order that the commission may
make Is within the constitutional limi-
tations. Bailey had said that he
would not deprive a railroad or any
one from testing any rate or order of
the c mmission In the courts of the
land. This rather general statement
has resulted in placing Senator Bailey
in the list of senators who favored an
unlimited court review, as is contend-
ed by the Aldrich faction, and also in
placing him in the list of senators as
favoring a limited court review, and
in polls of the Senate on this subject,
his name is found in both columns.
The limited court reviewists would
limit a test of the commission's orders
on constitutional grounds only while
those, like Aldrich and Foraker, would
have the courts pass not only the con-
stitutionality of the order, but upon
its wisdom, as well. Senator Bailey,
immediately after his flrst declaration
on the boor of the Senate in favor of
throwing the courts open to the test of
every act of the commission, clearly
established his position in an inter-
view with a dozen newspaper corre-
spondents who had called on him for
an amplification of his broad state-
ment, by poiuting out that the differ-
ence between hint and the Aldrich
supporters is that would have the
courts p ss on the reasonableness of a
rate, wh reas the other faction want
the court to pass upon the degree of
reasonableness. Yet leaders for and
against the limited court review each
counted upon Bailey as a supporter.
The latest development, of course,
settles definitely and unmistakably
Senator Bailey's position in regard to
the court review, and places him in
line, as was contended in these dis-
patches at the outset, with the limited
court review idea. To demonstrate
just h w absolutely Senator Bailey
would limit the extent to which the
courts should review an order of the
commission it is but necessary to con-
sider the answer he made when Presi-
dent Roosevelt sent him word that he
and his friends would acccpt the
Bailey amendment suspending the
power of inferior courts to enjoin a
commission order if Bailey would ac-
cept the Long amendment. The
answer was that this is agreeable to
him (Bailey) provided that the words
"farrly remunerative," be eliminated
from the bill. This would leave the
appeal based on the purely constitu-
tional requirements that the rate must
be reasonable and not confiscatory. It
wiped from the lists of supporters of
the Aldrich and Foraker contentions
the name cf the junior senator of
Texas.
It is regarded as a serious question
whether either Bailey or the Presi-
dent can deliver the goods contemplat- j
ed in the compromise that was sug-'
gested from the White House, but fo'
lowing Senator Bailey's great speech
which elicited the avowal of conver-
The Best Guaranty of Merit
Is Open Publicity.
Every bottlo of Dr. Pierce's world-
famed medicines leaving the great UU>-
ratory at Buffalo, N. Y., has printed
upon its wrapper all tho Ingredients
entering into its composition. This fact
alone places Dr. Pierce's Family Medi-
cines In ti cUun all by thmwlvea. They
cannot be classed with patent or seem*
medicines because they ar«- neither. This
is why so many unprejudiced physicians
prescribe them and recommend them to
their patients. They know what they
are composed of, and that the ingredients
are those endorsed by the most eminent
medical authorities.
The further fact that neither Dr.
Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, tho
frreat stomach tonic, liver invigorator,
leart regulator and blood purifier, nor his
"Favorite Prescription" for weak, over-
worked. broken-down, nervous women,
contains any : !. < hoi*also entitles them
to a place all by themselves.
Many years ago, Dr. Pierce discovered
that chemically pure glycerine, of proper
strength, is a better solvent ami preserv-
ative of the medicinal principles resid-
ing in our indigenous, or native. medi-
cinal plants than is alcohol; ailu. further-
more, that It possesses valuable medicinal
pro|>ertie8 of its own, tieing demulcent,
nutritive, antiseptic, and a most etlicleut
an ti ferment.
Neither of the aliove medicines con-
tains alcohol, or any harmful, habit-
forming drug, as will lie seen from a
Blanco at the formula printed on each
bottle wrapper. They are safe to use and
potent to cure.
Not only do physicians prescribe tho
above, non-secret medicines largely, but
the most intelligent people emplov them
—people who would not think of using
the ordinary patent, or secret medicines.
Every ingredient entering Into the com-
position of Dr. Pierce's medicines lias
tiio strongest kind of an endorsement
from leading medical writers of tho
Several schools of practice. No other
medicines put tip for like purposes lias
any such prufcsxlonal endorsement.
Dr. Pierce's Pleasant Pellets cure con-
stipation. Constipation is the cause of
many diseases. Cure the cause and you
cure the disease. One " Pellet" is a gentlo
laxative, and two a mild cathartic. I )rug-
gist.s sell them, and nothing is "just as
good." Easy to take as candy.

Fifty complete soldier's kits will
be sent to each of the sixteen organi-
zations of the guard. The goods are
now being packed and will be sent by
the end of the week.
The adjutant general announces
that company marches this summer
will be of special importance from the
fact that the men will take part in
full equipment and will receive in-
structions in blanket folding, etc.

He will be accompanied by F. W. Rot-

in the transaction. Mr. Bradley was in
the city h s morning working on the
case. It seem* that J hn William* was
it here by Bradley to buy a quarter
tlon of land near Mound from Lottie
Elix. Williams brought with him a let-
of recommendation from a Musko-
gee bank telling the people of the Hank
'onimerce of Guthrie to pay Williams
$800 in case the deed for the land was
igned by Lottie Elix. Another condi-
tion was that Prof. Page or some other
responsible party connected with the
kingston university should witness the
signature of Lottie Ellx and hould pos-
itively Identify her in the presence of
the Guthrie bank official*. Wlllams came
Guthrie last Friday and went immedi-
ately to Langston. He talked with Lot-
tie Elix concerning the purchase of the
land, but she firmly refused to sell na-
iler any con-1 deration. Then Williams
returned to Guthrie. He fell In with

gan to look for a negro woman who could
take Lottie Elix's place. They decided
upon Ella Alexander. Very little per-
suasion was necessary to get her to be-

Tho next day they went to the bank
and succeeded In convincing the officers
that the transaction regarding the sale
had been successful and that everything
was satisfactory. John Matthews, a
Guthrie barber, identified the woman, it
is said. The money was turned over to
Ella Alexander and the three departed.
