I S DISEAS E A GRIME
I Not so very long ago, a popular
magazine published an editorial article
In which the writer asserted. In sub
stance, that all disease should be re
garded as criminal. Certain it is, that
much of the sickness and suffering of
mankind is due to the violation of cer
tain of Nature's laws, which, if under
stood and implicitly followed, would
result in the preventioft of much of the
sickness and suffering of humanity.
But to say that all sickness should be
regarded as criminal, must, on a little
sober reflection, appeal to every rea
sonable and intelligent individual as
radically wrong.
Thousands suffer from contagious and
infectious diseases most innocently and
unconsciously contracted. Other thou
sands suffer and die of cancerous affec
tions, the cause of which no medical
man has yet been wise enough to fer
ret out and determine, and which can
not, therefore, be avoided. Then too,
many times stress of circumstances
compel people to expose themselves to
various disease-producing agencies, such
as malaria, bad air in overheated factor
ies, coal mines, and many other situations,
and surely those who suffer therefrom
should not be branded as criminals.
In-so-far as disease is contracted or
brought on one's self from harmful ex
cesses, avex^-eating, intemperance and
other like Indulgences and debauchery.
we think, with our editor friend, that lfc
should be regarded as little less than
criminal. On the other hand, we think it
would be harsh, unsympathetic, cruel, yes
criminal, to condemn the poor, weak,
over-worked housewife who sinks under
the heavy load of household cares and
burdens which she is obliged to struggle
along under until she succumbs to the
strain and over-exertion, and suffers from
weaknesses, various displacements of
i pelvic organs and other derangements
peculiar to her sex.
The too frequent bearing of children,
with its exacting demands upon the sys
tem, coupled with the care, worry and
labor of rearing a large family, is often
the cause of weakness, derangements
and debility which the mother has to bear
and which are aggravated by the many
household cares, and the hard, and never
ending work which she is called upon to
perform. Dr. Pierce, the maker of that
world-famed remedy for women's peculiar
IllsDr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription
says that one of the greatest obstacles to
the cure of this class of maladies is the
fact that the poor, overworked housewife
can not get the needed rest from her
many household cares and labor to enable
her to secure from the use of his "Pres
cription "its full benefits. It is a matter
of frequent experience, he says, in his
extensive practice in these cases, to meet
with those in which his treatment fails
by reason of the patient's inability to ab
stain from hard work long enough to be
cured. With those suffering from pro
lapsus, ante-version and retro-version
of the uterus or other displacement
of the womanly organs, it is very neces
sary that, in addition to taking his "Fa-,
vorite Prescription" they abstain from
being very much, or for long periods, on
their feet. All heavy lifting or straining
of any kind should also be avoided. As
much out-door air as possible, with mod
erate, light exercise is also very import
ant.
It is Dr. Pierce's observation that many
housewives suffer much in a weakened
condition of their system from too close
confinement in-doors. Often the kitchen,
where they spend most of their time, is
illy ventilated and the bad air and over
heating thereof act most unfavorably
upon the woman's strength, until she
finds herself suffering from various weak
nesses attended by backache, bearing
dowtn pains,torm
drapimig-down sensations
'a arc ox re civ hard to bear.

Monday Evening?
Now, whUe all the foregoing disagree
able symptoms and sensations will gen
erally yield to the faithful and somewhat
?ersistent use of Dr, Pierce's Favorite
rescription, to realize^ the very best
results irom Its use, the patient must, as
far as possible, abstain from over-work,
worry, and too close confinement in-doors.
To such women as are not seriously out
of health, but who have exacting duties
to perform, either in the way of house
hold duties or In social duties and func-v
tions which seriously tax their strength,
as well as to nursing mothers, the "Fa-
vorite Prescription has proved a most
valuable supporting tonic and Invigorat
ing nervine. By lis timely use, much
serious sickness and suffering may be
avoided. The operating table and the
surgeons' knife, would, it is believed,
seldom have to be resorted to if this most
valuable woman's remedy were resorted
to in good time. The "Favorite Prescrip
tion "has proven a great boon to expectant
mothers bv preparing the system for the
coming of "baby, thereby rendering child
birth safe, easy, and almost painless.
Bear in mind, please, that Dr. Pierce's
Favorite Prescription is not a secret or
patent medicine, against which the most
intelligent people are quite naturally
averse, because of the uncertainty as to
their harmless character, but is a medi
cine of known composition, a full list ot
all its ingredients being printed, in plain
English, on every bottle wrapper. An
examination of this list of ingredients will
disclose the fact that it is non-alcoholic
in Its composition, chemically pure glyc
erine taking the place of the commonly
used alcohol, in its make-up. In this con
nection it may not be out of place to state
that the "Favorite Prescription" of Dr.
Pierce is the only medicine put up for the
cure of woman's peculiar weaknesses and
ailments, and sold through druggists, that
does not contain alcohol, and that too in
large quantities. Furthermore, it is the
only medicine for woman's special dis
eases, the ingredients of which have the
unanimous endorsement of all the leading
medical writers and teachers of all the
several schools of practice, and that too
as remedies for the ailments for which
"Favorite Prescription is recommended.
A little book of these endorsements will
be sent to any address, post-paid, and
absolutely free if you request same by
postal card, or letter, of Dr. R. V. Pierce,
Buffalo, N. Y.
Don't forget that Dr. Pierce's Favorite
Prescription, for woman's weaknesses and
delicate ailments, is not a patent or secret
medicine, being the "Favorite Prescrip
tion of a regularly educated and gradu
ated physician, engaged in the practice
of his chosen specialtythat of diseases
of womenthat its ingredients are printed
in plain English on every bottle-wrapner
that it is the only medicine especially
designed for the cure of woman's diseases
that contains no alcohol, and the only
one that has a professional endorsement
worth more than all the so-called "testi
monials" ever published for other med
icines.
An invitation is extended by Dr. Pierce
to every sick and ailing woman to consult
him by letter. There is absolutely no
charge or fee for this. Every letter is
carefully considered, fully answered, and
its statements held as strictly private and
sacredly confidential. Address as above
directed.

BOYISH QUARREL
ENDS IN MURDER
MMBUanto
Boy Friends Fight Over Music and
One Is Given Death
'Blow.
Special to The Journal.
Philadelphia, May 28.A boyish
quarrel among three lifelong friends
over a musical note on Thursday night
had an ending in the murder of Robert
Beasley, agea 15, 321 Birsh, Camden,
today. Beasley died as a result of a
blow struck by one of his companions,
Walter Bryan, aged 17, and William
Pfrommer, aged 17, both of Camden.
Both fled but were arrested later.
All were members of the Stirling Man
dolin and Guitar club and were employ
ed in the same establishment. Beasley
owed his position to.Pfrommer and yet
it was with Pfrommer that he quarreled
over what seemed a trivial matter.
The Stirling Mandolin club took part
in a musical entertainment in Camden
on Thursday night, and as they pre
pared to leave the hall a dispute arose
between Beasley and Pfrommer as to
whether there had not been a false note
played ty another "while one of the airs
was being rendered. According to a
statement made by Pfrommer to the
police Beasley left him and others in
an angry frame of mind and this morn
ing Beasley still showed no disposition
to make peace with his former friend.
Beasley and Pfrommer came to blows
when they met and a blow sent Beas
ley reeling backwards. His head struck
the ground and he became unconscious.
Then both Pfrommer and Bryan fled.

BUGS FROM EDROPE
WILL DESTROY MOTHS
Journal Speoial Servloe.
New York, May 28.The brown
tailed moth must go. He has refused
to go peaceablv and now congress has
voted $100,000 to hasten his departure.
The brown-tailed moth first came over
here as an immigrant to assist Professor
Trouvelot, a French scientist in his ex
periments with silk-producing insects.
The caterpillars were netted on a shrub
when a severe storm broke, releasing
them from captivity and scattering
them to the four winds. The pest
spread rapidly until now it is almost na
tional. New England is a particular
sufferer, however. There are whole
orchards yearly ruined by the pest.
Dr. L. O. Howard, chief of the bureau
of entomology, United States depart
ment of agriculture, has just returned
from Europe with the news that more
than 5,000,000 parasites will arrive dur
ing the summer, guaranteed to eat up
the brown-tajled to his last hair. A.
bill passed in congress last week gives
$100,000 for the prevention of the fur
ther spread of the moth in this country.

adjourned today for the summer, Mr.
