BUSINESS MEN SHOULD BE
TcRESTED.
The very men, more than any other
class, interested In city elections, take
less Interest than any other set of
men.
The men we speak of are the busl-
nes men. They are the ones directly
and immediately effected, yet a busy
business man has an aversion to poli-
tics In any form. When aprpoached
they quickly offer an excuse and plead
that they cannot spare the time from
business worries. They have no pa-
tience with petty poli'clans, and al-
ways absent themselves from a cau-
cus or a convention.
Generally a caucus or conventirji Is
overrun with the ward heeler or the
eternal office seeker, and offers little
encouragement to them. This Is a ,
most unfortunate turn, and nearly ev- We take the following from tne Ok-

ant and valuable ingredient* — Golden
Seal root.
Nearly forty years ago. Dr. Plcree dl
covered that he could, by the use of pure,
triple-rofinod glycerine, aided by a cer-
tain degree of constantly maintained
heat and with the aid of npparatus and
appliances designed for that purpose, ex-
tract from our most valuable native me-
dicinal roots their curative properties
much better than by the use of alcohol,
so generally employed. So the now world-
famed "Golden Medical Discovery," for

Ailttie booK of these endorsements has
been compilod by Dr. R. V. Pierce, ol
Buffalo, N. Ym and will be mailed free to
any one asking same by postal card, or

From tin*s«• endortements, co[ ied from
standard medical books of all tho differ-
ent schools of practice, It will be found
tbat the Incmllents composing the "(Gold-
en Medical Discovery" are advised not
only for the cure of the above mentioned
diseases, but also for tho cure of all ca-
tarrhal, bronchial and throat affections,
accompained with catarrhal discharges,
hoarseness, sore throat, lingering, or
bang-on-coughs, and all those wastina
affections which, if not promptly and
properly treated are liable to terminate
In consumption. Take Dr. Pierce's Dis-
covery In time and persevere in its use
until you ffivn it a fair trial and it is not
likely to disappoint. Too much must not
be exnected of it. It will not perform
miracles. It will not cure consumption
In its advanced stages. No medicine will.
It will euro the affections that lead up to
consumption, if taken in time.
