When Dr, R. V. Pierce was a candidate
tor slate rtiiutor, his political opponents
publhhed a preteudtd ana yi-is ot his
popular medicines, hoping thereby to
pr fudice thv people fgainst him. Ilis
election by an i.teruLvtmlng inujorltv
evere'y rebuked his traducer?, who
sought to impeach his buMiiess integrity.
No notice would have tx en taken ot thei-e
campaign lies were it not that Fume ol
his enemies (and every suecetttul but-1-i.ess
man has his lull quota ot envious
rlvaU) are lepublishiug these bogus an
alyses. Numerous aud most ubcurd
hirmulas have been publii-hed, purport
