Entered at the post office in Cleveland, Ohio, in second-class matter. All communications should be addressed: HARRY C. SMITH, Editor and Proprietor THE GAZETTE, Blackstone Building, Cleveland, Ohio. Member Ohio Legislature, 1894 to 1896. 1896 to 1898. 1900 to 1902. THE GAZETTE is the oldest, and has the largest bona fide circulation, double that of any newspaper in the interest of Afro-Americans, published in the state of Ohio, and comparison with any will immediately establish its rank as one of the NEWSIEST AND BEST in the country. President Roosevelt has again sent Dr. W. D. Crum's nomination as Collector of the Port of Charleston, S. C., to the senate for confirmation. Last winter that body failed to take action, although its committee, to which the nomination was referred, made an adverse report. The republican majority in the senate should pass favorably upon it this time because Collector Crum is admittedly competent, etc., and because only democrats in the main are opposing him, the basis of their opposition being nothing but color and race prejudice. "Charles Alexander, general newspaper correspondent, editor of the Wilberforce Student, teacher of the printing art, Wilberforce university, Wilberforce, Ohio," is sending to several of our race publications alleged book reviews which are advertisements of individuals, publishing companies, and books, pure and simple matter that ought to be paid for and for the publication of which every newspaper accepting his copy is entitled to a fair return and in need of. Whether he writes the articles for pay or simply for copies of books he thus notices, is a question. One thing sure, the newspapers publishing his articles get nothing and need much. Of the sixty-six southern Afro-Americans taken to Liberia, Africa, about a year ago with a view to establishing the growing of cotton in that section of the continent, only two men, three women and four children, gaunt, hollow-eyed and ragged, have succeeded in returning to this country. They report the complete failure of the effort and tell a harrowing tale of their miserable life while abroad. In less than eight months, more than half of the party died from jungle fever, lack of provisions, etc. Former employers in this country furnished them funds to return here with. This is not very encouraging to those who anticipate emigrating to Africa. We are loath to believe that Bishop Walden of the Methodist Episcopal church at the recent annual meeting of the Freedman's Aid and Southern Educational Society in Lincoln, Neb., said, "he was glad they had Senator Tillman in the south because he was needed to stir up things," as stated by the Cincinnati Enquirer of Nov. 9. We can not believe the good bishop could be fool or knave enough to say such a thing. Therefore we call upon Rev. I. B. Scott, editor of the Southwestern Christian Advocate, an M. E. church organ for our people, to state the facts if there be any. The same newspaper announces that the leading hotels of Lincoln refused to accommodate such Afro-American delegates as Rev. Dr. Mason of Cincinnati and Rev. Dr. Bowen of Atlanta, Ga., so inoculated with the virus of southern race prejudice has one of the leading cities of Nebraska become. Really, this is discouraging. In marked contrast was Bishop Hamilton's address eulogizing President Roosevelt and counselling fair play and decent treatment for the Afro-American. The good bishop is most decidedly a credit to his church. When he left Ohio, Judge Taft, governor of the Philippines, was a broad-guaged man, somewhat on the order of President Roosevelt as far as the color or race question is concerned. What change, if any, in this respect has come over him as a result of his close association with the prejudiced vice-governor of the Philippines, General Luke E. Wright, we are unable to say. One thing is sure, he can hardly be any worse than the war department's treatment of our people indicates its present head, Secretary Elihu E. Root, to be. We are, however, hoping for better things as a result of Gov. Taft's control when he succeeds Mr. Root in January. Ex-adjutant General Henry Corbin was a very potent factor in the establishment of the "turn-down" and "bar-out" rule for Afro-Americans in the war department. However, he has been sent to New York to command that department of the army, and if there are left any more like him, we trust, if possible, the president will see that they are shipped elsewhere to do any old kind of duty before the advent of the new secretary of war. QHIQ'S LILLY-WHITE SENATOR The lily-white republicans of Alabama, the individuals who kicked the Afro-Americans of that state out of the republican party, are again clamoring for their friend, Senator Hanna, to stand as a candidate for the presidency against President Roosevelt. They are not overly numerous but are incessantly and clamorously noisy, beating the Hanna tom-tom so hard and so long and so loud that many people are fooled into the belief that the republicans of all the southern states are feeling like doing the same thing. Of course, THE GAZETTE, CLEVELAND, O., SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 21, 1903. they are not and cannot, because the southern Afro-American republicans who know Hanna, form too large a part of the national republican party—at least as delegates to the next national republican convention. They want none of Hanna because they have had entirely too much of him ever since President McKinley's first election. The fact is, we are sorry to say, they want none of any Ohioan as a candidate for the presidency, largely because of their most unfortunate and exceedingly harmful treatment meted out to them by Hayes, Garfield and McKinley. We cannot blame them for the position they take. Indeed, we feel very much as they do on this particular line. To the union between the lily-white republicans and democrats of the south is attributable nearly all the disfranchise acts of that section, most of which have come into life since McKinley's first election to the presidency and the consequent elevation to power in national affairs of Ohio's junior senator, the idol of the lily-white republicans of the south. When this is remembered, as well as Hanna's continued warm friendship for the two elements mentioned, his effusive greeting of Senator Gorman of Maryland in the senate on its recent opening date, is understood. That Gorman had ridden to victory over the prostrate forms of nearly all the Afro-American republicans of his state, after the vilest abuse of them and President Roosevelt because of the latter's entertainment of a member of the race (Booker Washington), had no particular significance to Hanna unless it was to please him, judging from the warmth of the greeting when the two met. Gorman's abuse of our people during the recent Maryland campaign, is notorious, because of its vileness. Yet he is congratulated on his signal victory by Senator Hanna. Some of these bright days the Ohio Afro-American republican will be forced by the man himself to fully realize appreciate and believe the statements, founded on facts, we have from time to time been making for more than two years past. The fact that Hanna is no friend of our people ought to be notorious. It will be ere long. THE FOLLY OF FOOLISH MEN. The idle and silly repeal bluster that is kept up by the crack-brained southern politicians of the Tillman stripe amounts only to so much bosh. At best, if the fifteenth amendment is repealed, the act itself would be only one of shameless robbery. But there are certain things that we cannot do in the face of the facts, and yet we may, like heartless, unblushing Turks, nullify or override the law and the dastardly deed is done. We may defeat the authority of federal power, we may ignore the great work of reconstruction ratified by a two-thirds vote of the states acting under the Federal government. But what after all must it count for, save that of highhanded and villainous outrage upon the rights of American citizenship. The Carmacks, the Tillmans and their kind may agitate the repeal of the fifteenth amendment, so too many a congress of lunatics do the same. The fifteenth amendment considered in whatever light, is an irrevocable conclusion. It stands as the very bulwark of American liberty and cannot be impaired or revoked through treachery or the evil machinations of Negro-hating, bad men. Each citizen can better subserve the cause of justice by first looking after their own affairs, their own liberty gitation to the cause of their country. They might well demonstrate their own loyalty and devotion to justice and righteousness than join in scheming and plotting against the rights of citizenship. In what way under the law has any man the right to invade the invalidated authority of a free and equal government of the people? Backed by a perversed and vicious public sentiment, men may challenge the authority of fundamental law, but even that when done, is done contrary to every principle of common justice. Says the New York Independent, "It is foolish talk." Yes, it is the consummation of superlative jargon. The government and the people have too long tolerated a set of empty-headed pettyfoggers in congress to their own detriment. They have too long borne with a class of unserrupulous politicians who like truant school boys have no concern for the real duties before them. Theirs is a deal for whatever may seem to aggrandize themselves. It is a deal in futures, it is a game of chance, it is actual gambling, a venture at that which caters to a vile and loathsome prejudice or stoops to the mandate of a cruel and oppressive public feeling, the outgrowth of a retrograding humanity. Nowhere on God's earth does such an anomaly appear as the childish agitation on the part of foolish men for a repeal of the fifteenth amendment. In the face of the black man's claims upon this government, in the face of the toils and sacrifices he has made, and of his ownership in lands and wealth and of the growing possibilities before him, it is supremely absurd for an intelligent constituency to entertain such an opinion. The man is insane who contends that this is a white man's government. The white man has long dominated and held centralized power, but ours is a government of the people, a people from every clime and country who have given their lives, their fortunes and sacred honors in making and perpetuating a nation not to be polluted and humiliated by traitorous hands. This government is bound to maintain its honor unimpaired against those who like Arnold would betray it into the hand of the enemy. To form a more perfect union, this government was established. It was established in the cause of justice, to secure the blessings of liberty to all men. Nothing save common justice to all citizens was contemplated and in the evolution of the growing principle of freedom, it was intended that our government without cant or equivocation should accord complete liberty to all who live within the confines of our great republic. The ratification of the fifteenth amendment by the states was but to indorse and reaffirm the intent and purpose of the doctrine, that the right to vote shall not be denied or abridged by the United States, or any state on account of race, color or previous condition of servitude. ALUM, FLINT AND SULPHURIC ACID. It is reported that in many localities houses are infested by peddlers trying to sell or introduce so-called "cheap" or low-priced baking powders, either directly or by an order upon a grocer. In most instances deception is used, and it is claimed that the article is a genuine baking powder and has all the merits of a pure article. Housekeepers should be on their guard against this danger to their food. Alum powders are almost always low priced. But they are well known to be detrimental to health. In England and in some sections of this country their sale is prohibited by law. Congress has forbidden the sale of food containing alum in the District of Columbia. The highest authorities condemn their use. Dr. S. W. Johnson, for instance, Professor of Chemistry at Yale College, says: "Bread made with a baking powder containing alum must yield a soluble alumina salt with the gastric juice, and must, therefore, act as a poison." It is well known that these so-called "cheap" goods are made from alum or the very cheapest materials. One of them was recently analyzed at Yale College and found to be one-quarter sharp pointed grains of ground flint. Others are filled with sulphuric acid, and salts of lead are also found in them. In baking powders be sure to get a reputable well-known cream of tartar brand, and never buy from peddlers. Strange Phenomena Reported in a Pennsylvania Homestead. Many strange phenomena are reported at the time of death of certain people, but the strangest of all and one that has been witnessed by hundreds of the curiously inclined happened recently at the home of Simon Fisher, at Shamokin, Pa. Upon the walls of Farmer Simon Fisher's home are the exact facial features of his deceased daughter and son, and each appeared upon the wall as life fled. Six years ago the 18-year-old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Simon Fisher, who reside on a farm near Rebuck, was striken ill with a peculiar malady. For months she suffered terribly, but despite this she was cheerful and battled bravely with death. As her end drew near the grief of the parents became uncontrollable, and they refused to be comforted. One day while the family were gathered around the dying girl's bedside praying for her recovery a strange light filled the room. There was a pause in the prayers, but the light faded away as quickly as it appeared. As they gazed upon the ceiling there appeared an exact likeness of the dying one. They were terrified and turned to the bedside, expecting to find her dead. But she still lived. The next day she died, but the face still remained on the wall. A short time ago her brother was taken down with a fatal malady and just before he died his profile appeared upon the wall, while upon the ceiling appeared the apparition of the daughter's death six years before. The young man failed to see the image of himself and said that that of his sister had disappeared. The stricken youth said he was going to die, and was resigned to his fate. Late in the afternoon he passed away peacefully. The images of both daughter and son remain upon the ceiling and wall respectively. Many persons have traveled miles to the Fisher homestead to view the strange phenomena, but no one has been able to explain the mystery. The family have become accustomed to the images, and say they do not want them to disappear. FUNERAL PARTY ON RAFTS. Floods at Weehawken, N. J., Compel them to Resort to Novel Means to Inter a Body. A strange result of the recent flood at Weehawken, N. J., was seen the other day, when a funeral party on rafts floated down Grand street to the corner of Nineteenth. The funeral was that of Catherine Lyons, who died when the flood was at its height, the water being then more than six feet deep over the area of two blocks around the house. The doctor made his way to the house on a raft and the pastor of the church had a row boat brought so he might reach the dying woman's side. A specially built raft carried the coffin. It was propelled by four men using poles draped in black and followed by three smaller rafts bearing mourners. The strange cortege proceeded first to the church, where mass was celebrated, after which the rafts were propelled to where the hearse and coaches were waiting. Bob-Tailed Coat Held an Evil: Bob-Tailed Coat Held an Evil. Green Briar presbytery, of the Presbyterian church of West Virginia, adopted resolutions protesting against clergymen wearing bob-tail coats. The resolution began thus: "That it is the solemn and painful conviction of this presbytery that some of the brethren are departing from the time-honored custom of their fathers and are wearing bob-tailed coats. The presbytery would hereby warn the brethren against conformity with the customs of dudes." WAY STATIONS There will be 36 tunnels on the route of the new Denver, Northwestern and Pacific railway within a distance of 26 miles, through the Rockies. It is estimated that it will require 600,000 pounds of powder to blast $2\frac{1}{2}$ miles of this route. Four-Track News. The Highland railway company of Great Britain announces that it has completed arrangements for telephonic communication between trains and stations on its line, thus not only greatly lessening the danger of wrecks on the road but also enabling its passengers to communicate with friends and business associates while traveling from place to place. At the beginning of the last century the royal college of Bavarian physicians sought to forbid steam railway travel, because it would induce delirium furiosum among the passengers and drive the spectators crazy; while an English quarterly said that it would as soon expect the people to suffer themselves to be tied to one of Congreve's rockets as to trust themselves to the mercy of a locomotive going at the prodigious rate of 12 miles an hour.

Through a perfect knowledge of chemistry can impart to you a secret that will overcome your enemies and win you friends. In love affairs never fails. The secret of winning the affections of the opposite sex. It is the curse of Spiritualism that there are so many who claim powers they do not possess. Beware of such and those who copy parts of my advertisement. They have neither gifts, credentials, nor references. Surely the colored people are not so wanting in sense as to throw their time and money away on such. DR. ELLARSON understands thoroughly the diseases, spells and influences the race is subservient to. Always has been a true friend to the colored people and always had a large patronage from them. PLEASE READ THE FOLLOWING: New York, Nov. 14, 1902.—This is to certify that I was out of work, out of money, and discouraged. I had no luck in anything I undertook. What to do I did not know. A friend advised me to go and see Dr. Shea. I went, but found that Dr. Shea was dead; but I found that Dr. Shea was a good friend and the best friend ever that he and I had. Dr. Ellarson, who took me in and treated me like a brother. Through Dr. Ellarson I got a position that very week. I had been to others. They took my money and did me no good. I bless the day I first met Dr. Ellarson. I would advise all in bad luck, slick or in trouble to go or write to 651 Fulton street to Dr. Ellarson at once. I had pneumonia. By Dr. Ellarson's careful warding all till in three days. If any one wants to know my more come to or write to Wm. A. Cook, 1855 Third avenue, New York, Borough Manhattan. New York, March 24, 1902.—This is to certify that my husband had gone away and been away for a long time. I knew not where he was. I mourned for him night and day. I gave him a gift of something wonderful things Dr. Shea was doing, resolved things I found Dr. Shea was dead, but Dr. Ellarson was in his place, who told me my husband was alive and well and would come home in a few weeks. To my joy all of it came true. I thank God there is one in our midst who can help mind so much, when they are in sore trouble of mind as I was. S. Lenhart, 1790 Third avenue. Brooklyn, May 3, 1902. — I went to Dr. Ellarson when I was so sick I thought I would die. Dr. Ellarson cured me and made me feel like a new person. I am thankful to the good spirit that led me there and to God for pointing me to such a good friend to give me such relief. May E. Ellarson gave me the Mt. Mile avenue, Brooklyn. Newark, Sept. 14, 1902. — I state that I was sick with a mysterious disease and great trouble and distress for a long time. No one seemed to understand my case. I went to many doctors, but none of them seemed to know what was the matter. None could do me any good. Hearing of the wonderful works being done by Dr. Shea, the last few years, I thought I would call to see him myself. I found Dr. Shea was dead and gone, but I found in his old 65 old sympathetic physician of wonderful insight and power, who in a shining me sound and well. I can truly and hence recommend Dr. Ellarson to all those in sickness or distress of any kind. Moses Jones, 13 Camp street, Newark, N. J. Orange, N.

If neglected now, the disease advances until the face looks pale or sallow, puffy or dark circles under the eyes, feet swell, and sometimes the heart acts badly. There is comfort in knowing that Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-Root, the great kidney, liver and bladder remedy, fulfills every wish in quickly relieving such troubles. It corrects inability to hold urine and scalding pain in passing it, and overcomes that unpleasant necessity of being compelled to get up many times during the night to urinate. In taking this wonderful new discovery Swamp-Root you afford natural help to nature, for Swamp-Root is the most perfect helper and gentle aid to the kidneys that has ever been discovered. My kidneys and bladder gave me great trouble for over two months and I suffered untold misery, MRS. E. AUSTIN. I became weak, emaciated and very much run down, I had great difficulty in retaining my urine, and was obliged to pass water very often night and day. After I had used a sample bottle of water, I was asked to request, I experienced relief and I immediately bought of my druggist two large bottles and continued taking it regularly. I am pleased to say that Swamp-Root cured me entirely. I can now stand on my feet all day without any bad symptoms whatever. Swamp-Root proved a blessing to me. Gratefully yours, MRS. E. AUSTIN, 19 Nassau St, Brooklyn, N. Y. In Louisiana's rice exhibit at the World's Fair there will be a miniature rice field, watered by a miniature canal.

Secretary Hay Also Signed the Document—It Provides for a Perpetual Lease of the Right of Way of the Canal Strip to the United States. Panama, Nov. 18.—Tuesday morning the United States flagship Marblehead hoisted the flag of the republic of Panama and saluted it with 21 guns. The Tres Noviembre, a gunboat of Panama, displaying the American flag, answered the salute. The shore batteries also fired a salute of 21 guns, which the Marblehead answered. Washington, Nov. 19.—The Hay-Bunau-Varnilla isthmian canal treaty was signed last evening at the residence of Secretary Hay by the secretary and Philippe Bunau-Varilla, the minister from Panama. The treaty in its text cannot be made public at this moment for two reasons. First, because of the unwritten law which obliges the state department to await the pleasure of the senate in the matter of publicity, and second because the president has not yet determined when the convention shall be admitted to the senate for ratification. His present purpose is to withhold it until there is reasonable assurance that its consideration will not obstruct any of the legislation for which the present special session of congress has been called. Instead of the lease for a fixed period of the canal strip, this new treaty provides for a perpetual lease of the right of way to the United States. And instead of a complicated provision for courts of mixed composition—half American and half Colombian—to administer justice over the canal strip, the new treaty permits the United States government to exercise the most complete jurisdiction thereupon. The United States may fortify the line and the terminals and it may police it with troops. Then the two terminal cities of Panama and Colon pass completely under United States jurisdiction, which incidentally involves the establishment of a new capital for the republic of Panama outside of the canal strip. The money consideration is understood to be the same, only Panama instead of Colombia is to receive the $10,000,000. The canal is to be neutral and open to all nations on even terms. These are understood to be the terms of the new treaty, which is much simpler in form than the failed Hay-Herran treaty and has been specially drawn to meet objections urged against the latter. It is stated that the Panama commission, which arrived here last night, has been empowered to ratify the treaty and this action may occur within the next 48 hours. The state department late yesterday afternoon received advices that the departments of Cauca and Antioquia, of Colombia, are seeking to separate from that government and are soliciting admission into the Panama republic. No surprise is expressed here over the report that these departments are making an effort to align themselves with the republic of Panama. The two departments named and also that of Bolivar are the most prosperous in the whole Colombian territory. They contribute. the greater portion of the revenues for the federal treasury, that of Antioquia alone paying about one-third of the entire amount. The Antioquians are known as the Yankees of Colombia and are progressive and businesslike people. For a long time there has been discontent among the people of these departments over the management of affairs by the politicians at Bogota, by whom they say their rights have been disregarded. The following cablegram was received at the state department from Consul General Gudger, at Panama, dated yesterday: "There is a good deal of excitement in Buena Ventura and some feeling against foreigners. The Colombian government is said to be considering a land invasion of the isthmus." Admiral Glass is expected to send a ship to Buena Ventura if in his judgment the situation warrants it, and he will be communicated with to that effect. The situation at Bogota has assumed a critical phase as far as relations between the United States and Colombia are concerned. Minister Beaupre on the 16th inst. was pressed very strongly by the Colombian government to know whether the United States intended to recognize the new republic of Panama. It is understood that the request was in such shape as to constitute a menace in the event that the recognition had been extended. Mr. Beaupre was instructed by this government to inform the Colombian government that such recognition had been extended to the new republic of Panama by the United States. He also was instructed to tender to the Colombian government the good offices of the United States to effect a settlement of the difficulties between Colombia and Panama. The issue is awaited with some anxiety here. Under the Priest's Ban. Tarrytown, N. Y., Nov. 19.—Rev. T. J.

Glasgow, Nov. 18.—While it is impossible to secure a direct statement as to the identity of the Clyde yachtman who proposes to challenge for the America's cup in 1904, it may be accepted as practically certain that Kenneth M.

Mr. Clark has large business interests on both sides of the Atlantic. The family has led Scottish yachting for a quarter of a century. Gave 8145 for the Relic.

Congress Expected to Provide for the Construction of a Vessel to Rid the Sea of Dangerous Crafts. It is more than likely that at the coming session of congress an appropriation will be made for the construction of a derelict destroyer for the bureau of navigation of the department of commerce and labor. A vessel of this sort would not cost more than $200,000, and should be an enlarged model of the present oceangoing tug, its mission being the towing to shore of derelicts rather than their demolition on the high seas. About a decade ago a proposition to have the several powers co-operate in the construction of such a vessel met with a decided repulse at the hands of European countries which were invited to enter into the scheme, the United States being as good as told that the large majority of the derelicts that were encountered on the Atlantic by liners and merchants' vessels were boats of this country, and that it was the business of the United States to destroy them and not to suggest that other nations assist in the work. Although this was in a large measure true, the menace of such abandoned vessels was as great to other nations as to the United States, and this country at that time thought that those placed in jeopardy should take upon their shoulders a portion of the cost of ridding the seas of them. Nearly all of the abandoned vessels found in the lanes of the Atlantic and along the coast of the United States are lumber-laden American schooners. The character of their cargoes prevents their sinking, and they float about the ocean a constant menace to commerce. As an old member of the bureau of navigation said: "They are the only craft permitted to sail the high seas without lights." The United States has reached the conclusion that the onus lies here, and following up this will probably provide for the vessel to rid our coast of them. SAY "PLEASE," THEN "DEAR." Chicago Woman Declares Courtesy is Greater than Love in Marital Difficulties. That "please" is a word of more magic than "dear," and that a courteous word of parting has more weight than a perfunctory kiss, was the doctrine preached the other day to Chicago women, by Mrs. E. T. Arnold, president of the Chicago Commons Woman's club, in speaking on the subject of "Responsibility of Wives." "I am of the opinion," said Mrs. Arnold, "that most marital difficulties arise from the fact that many wives treat their husbands worse and are more persistently rude and insulting to them than to any one else. And I am convinced that all that is absolutely necessary for a husband and wife to live together happily is self-control and good manners. "There need not be a particle of love. Some of the most unhappy couples are those who love each other dearly, yet have so little self-control that they are continuously in a turmoil. Many couples, with almost no mutual affection, live contentedly, because they do not consider that marriage does away with the common courtesies due each other." Rural Delivery at sea. The captain of the steamer Benalder, of Leith, in a voyage to China, threw a bundle of letters overboard in the Mediterranean. Some Spanish fisherman of Aguilas, near Cartagena, later caught a large fish, and on opening it found a bundle of letters inside. They took this to the mayor, who managed to decipher the name and address of the superintendent of the steamship line in London and thus to restore the letters to their owner. Buys Island for Thirty Cents. Senator John E. Fox, of Harrisburg, Pa., owns an island in the Susquehanna river, opposite Harrisburg, which he purchased for 30 cents. The island was formed by the gradual accumulation of sand and alluvial deposit. It contains one acre and forty-four perches. Senator Fox filed a formal claim for it, and the internal affairs department has decided the property was his. The price paid under the law was the regulation 30 cents. The Probable Cause.

The mother with her little ten-year-old daughter was returning to her tiny flat after a call on a friend who resided in a large house, with spacious grounds about it. As she neared the house she sighed and remarked to her little daughter: "Dolly, when I come back home after visiting Mrs. Wallin I feel as if I had come back to live in a hat box." Dolly gave a sigh exactly like her mother's and said, dismally: "And I feel as if I had come back to live in a keyhole."—N. Y. Times. Cheap Notoriety.

St. John, Kans., Nov. 16th.—This town has a genuine sensation in the case of a little boy, the son of Mr. and Mrs. William McBride. Dr. Limes, the attending physician, says: "Scarlet Fever of a very malignant type brought this child very near to death and when the fever left him, he was semi-paralyzed in the right leg and right arm. He also lost hearing in his right ear and his mind was much affected. "His parents tried another treatment for a time and when I was recalled I found that he was having spells very like Epilepsy and was very bad and gradually growing worse. I advised the use of Dodd's Kidney Pills and in a short time the child began to improve. Inside of a week the nervous spasms or epileptic seizures ceased altogether." Mr. and Mrs. McBride have made a sworn statement of the facts and Dr. Jesse L. Limes has added his sworn statement saying that Dodd's Kidney Pills and nothing else cured the fits. Tess—"He proposed to me to-day, and he was so impatient. He wanted me to marry him right away. But I was not to be hurried." Jess—"So you put him off, eh?" Tess—"Yes, indeed.

Miss Rose Peterson, Secretary Parkdale Tennis Club, Chicago, from experience advises all young girls who have pains and sickness peculiar to their sex, to use Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound. How many beautiful young girls develop into worn, listless and hopeless women, simply because sufficient attention has not been paid to their physical development.

Menstruation was irregular. "I tried a bottle of your Vegetable Compound and began to feel better right away. I continued its use, and am now well and strong, and menstruate regularly.
