OPEN SECRETS.
To overcome the well-grounded and reasonable objections of the
more intelligent to the use of secret, medicinal compounds, Dr. R. V.
Pierce, of Buffalo, N. V., some time ago, decided to make a bold de
parture from the usual course pursued by the makers of put-up medi
cines for domestic use, and so published broadcast and openly to the
whole world, a full and complete list of the ingredients entering > into
the composition of his widely celebrated medicines. Thus he has
taken the many users of his medicines into his full confidence. Thus
. .-•^«sj_Mrt''t-'W^*"-_-»>Wr*"''*J'tt *tt> *'*r *,,>**v' 'I***'
'. too •he s has absolutely and. completely removed ■ his ; medicines from
among' secret nostrums of doubtful merits, and made them remedies
OP KNOWN COMPOSITION.
■",. Dr Pierces medicines are now In a class all by themselves—
being absolutely and In every sense Non-secret.
Musi— _ >■!, _- m sjm mi wiiln sssmsjH' up" ill Siniiwi_f —wiMiTswnnfrs pttc —i
. By this bold step Dr. Pierce has shown that his formulas are of such
excellence that he is not afraid to subject them to the fullest -scrutiny.
Not only does the wrapper of every
bottle of Dr. Pierces Golden Medical
Discovery, the famous ■ medicine .- for
weak stomach, torpid liver, or bilious
ness and all catarrhal diseases wherever
located, have printed upon it, in plain
English, a full and complete list of all
the ingredients : composing ; it, but ' a
small i book. has been ; compiled - from
numerous standard ■ medical works, of
all • the different schools, of .' practice,
containing very numerous extracts from
the I writings of. leading' practitioners
of medicine, endorsing in the strongest
possible terms, each and every ingredi
ent ' contained iin j Dr. Pierces! medi
cines. « One of these little books will be
' nailed free to any one sending address
: on postal card or by letter, to Dr. R.V.
Pierce, Buffalo, N.Y., and requesting
1 the same. From this booklet it will be
learned that Dr. Pierces medicines con
tain** no '< alcohol, narcotics,' 1 mineral
agents or, other poisonous or injurious
agents and \ that they are made " from
: native, i medicinal roots of great value;
; also that some of the most valuable in
gredients contained in Dr. Pierces Fa
vw>rite Prescription , for weak, nervous,
over-worked, "run-down," nervous and
debilitated women, were employed, long
years 1 ago ? by. the , Indians for similar
ailments ■: affecting;- their squaws.; ■■ In
fact, one of ,• the most valuable medic
inal plants entering into the composi
tion of J Dr. Pierces Favorite Prescrip
tion \ was ■ known nto ■> the Indians as
■•"Squaw-Weed," Our knowledge of the
'uses of not a few of our most valuable
native,' medicinal. plants was gained
from , the' Indians."
As made up by improved and exact
§ racemes," ana with the use of specially
esigned, chemical apparatus, the "Fa
vorite Prescription" is a' most efficient
remedy regulating all the womanly
' functions," correcting displacements, as
prolapsus, anteversion and retroversion,
overcoming painful periods,' toning jup

proprietary rights may not be infringed I
and trespassed upon ', by . unprincipled |
matter of the Republican national
chairmanship. '•"#•'" '
Has Nothing to Tell
Concerning >- the ;" chairmanship ■ the
secretary said • that she was absolutely

.-i?A question which s save.'. the . secre
tary some thought today was that re
lating to the ordering of United States
troops to the Mexican border to Insure
preservation of the neutrality laws. He
explained that I two I troops of i cavalry
from Fort Clark and two other troops

SENDING OF U. S. TROOPS
DEPARTURE FROM CUSTOM
WASHINGTON.; June ' 30.—American
military forces are now in service for
the enforcement of the neutrality laws
along the Mexican border.
.; General Meyer, commanding the de
partment of Texas, has reported to the
war department that directions already
have been*, given * for' the dispatch 'of
four troops of cavalry from posts In his
department to Del Rio. .
As to other points, he will be guided
by his conference with the civil officials.
The employment of American troops
for this purpose, by the way, Is almost
without precedent In recent years, and
the law officers of the war department,
as well as the attorney general him
self, . have ■ ben. obliged to; give close
study to the question of; the extent to
which' they may exercise the power of
preventing persqns' from entering the
United ■'- States across the Mexican
border. • . -. .
■ Under j the law.no passports are i re
quired, • except 'In the case : of. Chinese
and Japanese, and about the only other
reasonable ground for detention of fu
gitives seeking to cross the line would
be • some'- presumable violation ,of the
immigration or health Inspection laws.

■ So it Willi be a ' delicate \ task for the
army officers who are charged with the
duty of policing this International boun
dary line to avert clashes with the civil
courts vif . they undertake to make I pro
miscuous arrests of persons fleeing from
Mexico Into the United States. ».'.
- Frequent conferences were held dur

MRS. COWLES' FRIENDS ARE
PLEASED BY: HER ELECTION
The entire state of California, es

been honored in ' the election of the
foremost clubwoman of the state, Mrs.
Joslah Evans Cowles, to the office of
first vice president of the General Fed
eration of Women's Clubs, now holding
the ninth biennial In Boston. • -
.-- No one could have been better fitted
for the office, for Mrs. Cowles ls noted
for her graciousness and tact and her
executive, ability has been proved In
both the state and national federation.
When the biennial. was held in Los
Angeles In 1902 Mrs. Cowles was called
to the office of chairman of the local
! biennial board and under her direction
that series of meetings was so unqual
ified a • success that the record then
made has been the accepted standard
for the biennials that have followed.
■ Mrs. Cowles was the first 'president
of the Los Angeles Civic association,
holding . the office two years. After
serving as president of the Los Angeles
district Mrs. Cowles was elected to the
presidency of the state federation in
1905, when that body convened at San
Jose, and the year following was made
chairman <of the program committee
for the general ' federation. This of
fice she filed for two succeeeding terms
and at the meeting at St. Paul was
made treasurer and a director of the
G F. W. C, holding these honors until
her present elevation to the next but
one highest gift ■in the power of the
general federation to confer.

Thirty-five guests feasted at the ban
quet tendered by the Democratic club
to the departing delegates and alter
nates to the Denver convention last
nlf ht- „ r.
The party will leave for San Fran
cisco this afternoon to Join the Cali
fornia special there.
The tables were laden with appetiz
ing foods, and under the direction of
Manager George Hand and Steward
Harry Glnter the gastronomic feature
was spread out until after 9 o'clock.
Then came the speechmaking, with
Mayor A. C. Harper as toastmaster.
The mayor introduced the delegates
as the men who would nominate the
next president at Denver, and then
asked Isidore Dockweller to start the
ball rolling. '
Mr. Dockweller said this was his
seventeenth wedding anniversary, and
as he had nine babies at home he
wished to be excused from remaining
too late, as he was In demand there.
"Although our nomination for presi
dent is practically made," said Mr.
Dockweller, "there are other Important
things to be done at Denver.' We are
to select a vice president, and above
everything else to build a platform.
Interests Pulling
"With various Interests pulling this
way and that It behooves Democracy to
keep in the middle of the road." '
The speaker asked that the workers
have regard for the old war horses and
see to It that they are not brushed
aside.
Mattison B. Jones said he meant to
"holler" when he got to Denver and
expected to come back voiceless. The
Democratic party was not of the steam
roller driven sort. Democrats followed
the plow and upturned the earth,
spreading seeds of intelligence.
Milton K. Young said he failed to see
how the Republicans could harmonize
Taft, Roosevelt and their platform
when the planks were at variance with
Roosevelt's wishes. -*~ ■ ■
"I think the platform Is a make
shift," said Mr. Young. "If ever labor
stens on the plank It will go through
as through a trapdoor. But Bill Taft,
not labor, will attempt to stand on that
plank."
jgBBQsEa Harmony In Ranks i^graSSß
Eugene Capps of San Diego and Col.
R.. V. Dodge also of the south made
short addresses, calling attention to
the advance of harmony In the ranks.
Nathan Cole, Jr., made the conclud
ing address.
"On the success of Democratic prin
ciples lies the hope of this nation,"
said Mr. Cole. l
"It ls principles, not men, that we
are fighting for. If I am defeated at
Denver I will take it with equanamlty
and work for the winner. •
"We are organized to advance the
whole nation as against any special In
terests. I may make enemies when I
go to Denver, but I will try to hold the
party to fundamental principles." •>-*"■■■
