Fnctoryvlllc, April a. The dairy men
make smaller profits tlmn most any
other producers, nnd then thoy nra
obliged to ca'rl the milk froi?i om to
three miles, and up to thlt time have
been obliged to sell Jt nt a !r!co such
nr the dairy companion caw lit to
dictate, or offer them, which generally
runs from about 14 to 2 cents per
quart. The purchasers In the city real
ize from 6 to 10 cents per quart, and
yet set up tlto claim. that they cannot
nfford to pay the dairymen more for It.
Now the dairy men havo aroused them
selves and arc dictating the price to
the, milk buyers. They will no doubt
get It If they nrc firm and do not
waver. They are not quite as well or
gnnlzed yet as they should bo, but they
will nil fall Into line, no doubt, in iho
near future. When tho stilkn was
ordered last PaUnlny there were a
few that dellbciately went back on ;
their pledge "f honor, nnd continued i
to take mlllc to thn coivlenery, but
they wore met In the streets by the
strikers, mid some pretty forcible Ian-
gunge was used along with the ciie3
ot "scabs" from people alone tlv
streets, all of which had their effeet. ,

IS there anything inoro fiendish than tho constant
itching of tlio skin wliich will not be quieted ?
Scratching is like trying to put out a hro with
turpentine it only adds fresh fuel to tho flump. Tho
common cause of skin irritation is found in a diseased I
condition of the blood. For this reason washes, lo
tions, unguents, etc., though they may alleviate, can- j
not eradicate tho disease. No medicinu will "como ,
up to tho scratch " which cannot cleanse the blood of '
tho humors and poisons which corrupt the health of j
tho whole body.
" GOULD BO NOTHING BMT
SQRATOH."
"I consider your' Golden Medical Discovery ' one of the
best Medicines on the face of the earth," writes William
Floeter, Usq., of Redoak, Montgomery Co., Iowa. "While
jn the south-west three years ago I got poisoned with poison
ivy. The poison settled m my blood and the horrors I suf
fered cannot be told in words. I thought I would go cra.y.
I could do nothing but sciatch. I would go to sleep scratch
ing, would wake up in the morning and find myself scratch
ing. I scratched for eight months. Had it not been for
' Golden Medical Discovery ' I would be scratching yet. I
tried different kind3 of medicine tried different doctors
but nil the relief they could give me was to make my
pocket-book lighter. I called on one of the leading doctors
in a western town. He charged me one dollar; drug cost
two dollars and a half. If I had given that money away I
would have been better oft, for it did me no good. I then
began taking Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery. Took
four bottles without any relief Kept taking it. I took in
all ten bottles nnd I got entirely cured. I cau say that if
people would take your medicine instead of fooling with
some of the quacks that infest the small and larger towns
disease would flee like chaff before the wind."
Tlio action of " Golden Medical Discovery " upon
the blood is marked in two ways : by purifying the
blood and no removing tho causes, of disease, an. I by
increasing tho quantity a3 well as improving tho
quality of tho blood. This increased supply of pure
blood, rich with tho red corpuscles of health, carries
now life to overv organ of tlio bodv. Weak organs
are thus strengthened and aro enabled to throw otf
tho diseases which had fastened on them. In scof
ulous diseases the ue of " Golden ISfedical Discov
ery" has time and again worked wonders, curing
sores, boil's, eruptions, "and other painful aii'd dis
figuring diseases.
SIGHT ALMOST G&h'E.
"My little daughter when seventeen months old became
afflicted with scrofula, which affected her eyes," writes Mrs.
Agnes Iv. Duncan, of Mansfield, Sebastian Co., Ark. "Shs
could not bear the light for over a year. We tried to cure
her eyes, but nothing did any good. We had our home
physician, und he advised us to'take her to an oculist, as her
eyelids would have to be 'scraped.' They had become so
thick be thought she would never recover her bight. As
there was no one else to whom we could apply my heart
6i.uk within me. I went to your ' Common Sense Medical
Adviser,' read your treatment on scrofula, getting the prop
erties of ihediclnes there advised. With five bottles of
'Golden Medical Discovery' I have entirely cured my
child." .
Scrofula of tho lungs is tho other name for that
diseased condition of tho luinr tissues Svhioli. if nor-
(
Icqtedj or unskillfully treatbd, terminates in consump
tion. Tho many marvelous cures of " weak " lungs,
by'Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Discovery, aro effected
along tho saino lines as the cures of other forms of
scrofulous diseaso; by purifying thu blood from poi
sonous substances and increasing tho activity of the
.blood-making glands, so that the blood, oil which
. ovdcy organ depends for vitality,
puoa to eacu uopenuem organ.

Medical Discovery with gratifying success, and she now
enjoys excellent health. This experience caused me to rec
ommend Dr. Pierce's mediciues to my neighbors, who,
without exception, used them with favorable results. This
being true, I heartily endorse your medicines."
There am certain medicines which arc offered as
blood-making medicines, but no medicine can make
a. drop of blood. Blood is made from food. Blood
is the vital principle of the body. Strength is built
up from blood. Blood and strength are alike the
product of tho food we eat. Take away a man's
food and vou take away his' life. Take away a
man's blood and he dies. Give a man blood and you
give him strength. Tho great fact is that life de
pends upon food, and on the ability of the stomach
and organs of digestion and nutrition to extract the
nourishment from the food and distribute to blood,
brain and bone, the salts, phosphates and lime they
lie on.
" Golden Medical Discovery " cannot make a drop
of blood It can no more add to a man's strength
than to his stature. "What it can do and what it
does is to put the stomach ami organs of digestion
and nutrition into perfect working order so that the
nourishment in the food is extracted and assimilated
and made into blood and strength.
BTS WQNSSERFifi. WAY.
"Thrc years ago," writes Misj Jennie Swearingen, of 1056
Mrrket S'rcet, l'arkersburg. West Va., "I was taken with
what our family physician called typhoid fever, and was sick
for seen or eight weeks. My stomach was in a dreadful
condition and 1 could neither eat nor sleep. For four weeks
I drank only ice-water. I was token down in the same
mamie.- the next year. I suffered for two or three weeks,
and again last winter I began suffering with a pain in my
cide. It l:ep. getting worpe and I had to have a doctor, and
he pronounced it n kind of malaria and Grippe. What I
suffered 1 could never exprcs-, to anyone I could eat noth
ing; had to lie flat on my back and could not rise from the
bed. Everyone thought I could not live. I had to be cov
ered will. nuirUrti plasters and apply hot irons, etc. I
bought two bottles of Dr Pierce's Golden Medical Discov
ery alici a vial of his ' Pellets.' Took the medicines accord
ing to directions and begtu: to improve slowly. The way it
helped my stomach :;..-.' just wonderful. I still continue the
use oi the medicines, and now have taken not less than six
teen Lotties of 'Golden Medical Discovery' and quite a
niuubtr of the vials of the ' Pellets.'
" For catarrh I have used six bottles of Dr. Sage's Catarrh
Remedy, and cm cured of that trouble also. I cannot say
nor write enough in praisi of Di. Pierce's medicines. I
know that no other medicine in the world could have bene
fited me in the way it has. I have had 110 bad spell of sick
ness since I begun its use, and I feel entire); well "
Tho wide range of cures performed by Dr. Pierce's
Golden Medical Discovery may be attributed to the
scientific method of tho treatment wliich cures
through the stomach di&eases which have their origin
in a diseased condition of the stomach and the allied
organs of- digestion and nutrition. Blood is the life,
but blood is made from food, and the conversion of
food into nutrition depends upon the health of t?io
stomach and its allied organs. . "Golden Medical
Discovery" heals the stomach and so removes tho
contaminating cause of the blood's impurity. It
increases the activity of the blood-making glands, so
that a stream of pure, rich blood is supplied, ado
quato to tho nourishment of all the organs of tlio
body. It restores tho lost appetite and builds up tho
body with sound flesh instead of flabby fat. It
induces restful, refreshing sleep, and brightens tho
mental faculties in correspondence with the physical
restoration.
There is no alcohol in tho "Discovery" and it is
absolutely free from opium, cocaine, chloral and all
other narcotics. It can bo given with as much safety
to tho weakest child as to the strongest man.
If you ask your dealer for " Golden Medical Dis
covery "' don't bo turned asido from your purpose by
any offer of "just as good " medicines. If it's any
thing else than Dr. Pierce's Golden Medical Dis
covery it won't do tho work which the "Discovery"
docs. Get tho " Discovery " and get cured.

THE MARKETS.
Wall Street Bovlew.
New York, April 3. 1 he two most po
tent factors In today's stock market were
Federal Steel nnd Baltimore nnd Ohio
stocks. Tho pressuro to liquidate the for
mer had a decidedly unsettling lnllucnco
on tho vvbolo stock mtukut In tho morn
ing and tho strength of the latter stock
served to stiffen prices In tho afternoon
and to retrlovo to a largo extent tne
earlier decline. Tho oponing in Federal
Btcel was vvldo and the price wns soon
carried down to 49, u drop of 4ft from yes
terday's close, It rallied 2 points, but
went off again In tho last fifteen minutes
of tho market to tho lowest, developing
renewed signs ot weakness In tho rest of
tho list. Tho seUIng of tho stock was
duo to tho practical admission that the
fnlluro to amend tho charter yesterday at
tho annual meeting was equivalent to the
abandonment of further dividend distri
bution this year owing to legal obstacles.
Tho aggressive strength In Baltimore and
Ohio developed after the executive com
mittee of tho company had convened, It
wns generally uiuicrsioou inai uus men
Ing would consider the granting of addi
tional rights to stockholders. A new ru
mor found circulation about every live
minutes as to what tho right would be
and tho speculation In tho stocks of tho
group wns very active. The common
stock touched SSV4 and tho preferred KS
and both reacted nenrly 2 points on profit
taking, helping to tho easier tono In the
close. London wns a free seller In tho
early dealings nnd helped to the opening
renetlon. While thero wero no very largo
offerings brought out nt tho decline, the
demand for stocks wns decidedly less
urgent than In tho recent market, and
with tho dullness and firmness prompted
to an ndvanco large offerings to realize
wero brought out when prices koI back
to last night's level. Tho market gavo
evldenco of tho pressure of large specula
tive holdings to realize, but holders evi
dently felt themselves strong enough to
withhould their offerings at any con
siderable concessions, Outside a few
stocks today's movement In prices wan
narrow. There was conldorabte strength
In the aranj-ers under tho leadership of
St. Paul baEed on a very heavy grain
movement over the western lines. Tho
trunk lines were firm on tho large east
bnund shipment besides the sympathetic
effect of the movement ot the Baltimore
and Ohio storks. The rnlly from tho low
point reached a point In a numbtr of
prominent railroads but tho final easing
off left most of the day's net changes
smnll and mixed between gains nnd
losses. Svgar was actively dcult In, but
after an early decline of over a point
mouiitcd upwurd 4 points .on tho reported
easing In tho prlco of raw sugars. The
price cased off In tho lato decline, bring
ing the net advanco down to l'i. Total
sales, 72!),SO0 shares. Th- bond market
continued quite active and changes In
prlcen wero mixed. Total sales, par
value, $1,570 000. United Stntes 3s coupon,
new 4s and Cs declined U In the bid price.
