THE TWENTY-THIRD YEAR. NO. 1. SENSIBLE STYLES. How attractive the little ones are these late summer days, and how cool and comfortable they look. They dress plainer, more sensibly than they used to, and yet with a great amount of style. Metropolitan, as well as innocently charming and unconscious of clothes is that baby boy in his white linen dress, hanging straight and comfortable from the shoulder, its long waist marked by a shiny black belt. His knees are bares, his short stockings white, his shoes low and broad. Head uncovered, he is about as free as a southern pickaninny guiltless of apparel. Here is a slim, small summer maiden with a frock of blue cotton or linen; she wears a low-lying belt, which is of cherry red, likewise her hair ribbon is that gay color. Her hose and shoes are of tan, and she wears no hat, the yellow tresses gleaming as she runs after a retreating playmate. On hot days at the sea shore, fewer clothes than the few here mentioned, are the order of the day. A jumper proves sufficient for a small boy, and a similar suit for his fortunate sister, the new woman of four or five. No stockings trouble, sandals are strapped to the feet. Happy childhood of the sensible early twentieth century. Older children, the young misses, put on a lot of style, but are not much hampered, after all, not overburdened with frills and furbelows. This assuredly is not a day of ruffies and wearisome adornment, at least for children. Grown-ups' costumes show that some poor creature has had to slave over hand-run tucks, hand-hemmed frills, hand-sewn lace, hand-made broideries. But the small cry help strike the happy mean. There is no little dash to the frocks here illustrated, and yet in a way they are plain. So much depends on the cut, set of waist, depth of collar, hang of skirt. The rest is easy. One is a gray-blue linen with yoke of broiderie Anglaise. The other model has pliated skirt trimmed with buttons, a blouse waist with little vest effect. These frocks are suitable for girls from eight and ten years up to that period when dresses must have a distinctly grown-up air. Though early to prophesy about fall fashions for the big ladies, we make Many Very Pretty Bodices It seems to us this is a day of graceful waists, rather than ornate and inartistic specimens of dressmakers' long hours of labor. The model here shown is an excellent one, the back so pretty we choose to present it. And A GRACEFUL MODEL. hasn't some one said the back of the costume is much the most important part—it must be perfect. One can cover faults in the front of a dress, but we are not in the habit of carrying our arms behind us. The waist in question is made of the same material as the skirt, and has touches of velvet, the present very fashionable trimming. It has a chemisette in back, as well as front, which breaks the length of waist too long and slim. We do not recommend this style for the pudgy woman. The sleeves are moderately full, of the popular elbow length, and the frills repeat the white of the chemisette. A violet girl extends foul below the waist line, pointed back A GRACEFUL MODEL venture to forecast green as a mark of exclusive and high-class dress. And what reason do we give? Well, guarded reports that reach us from over-seas. A late gown is described as of dark blue fusser with collar of emerald green braided in black and white. We are told of a leghorn hat dyed green and trimmed with a wreath of multicolored roses and a big bow of sapphire blue velvet. Then, to emphasize the emerald hue of things, we listen to ravings of an exquisite olive-green violet gown, made princess style, the yoke of irish lace picked out with broidery of pale blue. But let us cling to summer so long as we may, not speak of wools and winter. Late August days will see many long white linen coats worn with colored cottones and linens, as well as sometimes part of the all-white costume. The wash-hat of embroidery is to be worn till driven to shelter by the frost, and nothing is prettier in the way of clothes than a long coat and hat of all-over embroidery—but the expensive English sort is not to be had cheaply. White is seen everywhere, even as autumn approaches numbers of ladies are adding their stock of snowy gowns. There are sheer stuffs and linens and crushes of heavy weave; there are serges and mohairs; there are silks, Chinese and Japanese wash stuffs. In the fall nothing is more attractive than white wool, and when it has the addition of collar and cuffs of colored velvet it is especially pleasing. It is pretty generally agreed that the most becoming hat of the season has been the one of horsehair braid, the straw being so pliable and lending itself easily to shape approved by individual taste. A hat that is one of the prettiest of the many ones shown is also suitable for evenings at the theater the coming season. It is made of small ruffles of yellowish Valenciennes lace upon a horsehair foundation, dull gold in color. Small green roses adorn the lace ruffles, and are masses at the back. Of course this could be made up with a different color scheme. Though holding desperately to summer, we feel moved again to speak of fall styles; to remark that the hat with high crown is showing itself. But it is really too early to take stock in signs and promises. and front. This gown would be very pretty made either of silk or soft wool. Everybody nowadays has one of those little coats, wash affairs, just the thing for summer wear and early autumn days. The shops are disposing of them at ridiculously low prices, and they are being taken up as fast as put on the bargain counters. The favorite is the boloer with short sleeves, coat and sleeves edged with little wheels of embroidery or crochet. They look so dainty and frilly, are especially attractive worn over the lingerie blouse. Although one of the best noticed this season was a dress for the linen, the frock as severe and close-fitting as couch, the boloer with its little hand-made wheels are a touch of elegance and simplicity. The separate waist is back into its own again; those that thought shirt-waist suits and costumes of one material were to rule absolutely, thought wrong. There never were displayed handsome blouses than just now, and many women seem to prefer them to the two-piece suit. Dotten swiss waists are lined with the suspender styles that still remain, though threatened by the common and ugly ones appearing soon after the good models were shown. A pale messaline was made up with a full untrimmed skirt, short puffed sleeves, and shirred suspender straps passing with no slant over the shoulders, the straps having two bands crossing in front, shirred and of the same width as the shoulder straps. The waist proper was of dotted swiss, the girdle white wash-ribbon, double white frills at the bottom of the sleeves. It was a lovely and simple little dress, much more effective on the hot evening than a fussy costume near by. In a New York prison the educational course for convicts will be broadened to include lectures on law. In Union There is Strength To Study Law. CLEVELAND O., SATURDAY, AUGUST 5, 1905. Is Mr. Manning's Expose of Southern Democratic Dryrot. He Shows that the Old Bourbon Party Lives on Fraud and Calls for a Regeneration of the Election Machinery of Southern States. Alexander City, Ala.—That the congressional delegations from the three states of Alabama, South Carolina and Mississippi, with a white voting population of 513,591, were elected in 1902 upon a total and combined vote of 115,475, appears startling on its face, and is so to the extent that it discloses the fact that the white masses are not in accord with the machine democracy dominating these states. The number of males, whites and blacks, of voting age, in these three states is 1,946,364. In the presidential election of 1904 there were but 232,708 votes returned for Parker in the four states of Alabama, Mississippi, Louisiana and Georgia, with a combined white voting citizenship of 790,077, and with a colored male citizenship over 21 years of age of 679,515. The number of whites in Alabama of voting age is 232,294 and the sum of 1,414 added to lesbians will be the entire vote polled for Parker in the four southern states referred to. Alabama, with her 232,294 white votes, casting only 79,857 votes for Parker, evidences it that the white masses in Alabama are no longer rallied under the Bourbon democratic banner. Twelve southern states: Alabama, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Kentucky, Louisiana, Mississippi, North Carolina, South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas and Virginia, polled 1,129,714 votes for Parker, while the white voting citizenship of these states is 3,317,797, and these persons are 2,323,904 persons of voting age. The total number of whites and blacks of voting age is 4,866,173. The state of Georgia, with a white voting citizenship of 277,796, polling but 83,472 votes for the democracy, is sufficient to cause the Georgia democratic wisdom to turn to advising among themselves as to how best to build up a reputable democracy in Georgia, which may secure the confidence and votes of the masses, rather than giving gratuitous advice to a republican administration as what best to do to make a reputable republic. The state of Georgia is well, by way of a digression, to remark just here upon the sudden disappearance of the Georgia "Before Day Clubs" since the national campaign! The Hon. John Temple Graves' Atlanta newspaper became so worked up during the campaign over "Negro Terrorism" that his paper suggested the reorganization of the Ku-Klux. Where is all of this "Negro terrorism" that we read of as existing in Georgia while the democratic race issue was played upon the masses south for all that it could be played? The "film-flamming" Negro bugaboo had the day of its use and like the phantom that it was has vanished. Behind all of this cloud of democratic race issue we find no issue at all, and since the smoke has cleared away there is the Bourbon regime to support the hollow hatching of a handful of votes! The masses of whites, although driven to silence by the false representations waged against the republican candidate, did not walk to the polls and register approval of the Bourbon regime in the south. "Since the real attitude of the president to the south is coming to be understood there is not so much bitterness against the president in the south after all," is now declared to be the situation by the very papers and politicians south who indulged in the misrepresentation of the president and employed the slanderous and villainous abuse of him for low and cunning political effect. No sensible southerner thought the president an advocate of the southern conception of social equality, although these papers and politicians sought to instil it in the popular mind that a vote for Roosevelt meant an approval of the illiterate Negro's being forced upon social equality with whites. It will take but a short while for the white masses south to realize the idiocy of this statement and statements any source. The black democrat need not much longer equate to terrorize the poor white farmer, shivering under the cover of a mortgage, as to any dread of social equality with Booker Washington. The one-horse white farmer's condition is such that he, tax-ridden and illiterate, need have no fears of reaching Booker T. Washington in a pullman and eating a dollar meal! Despite the terrible maligning of President Roosevelt, and notwithstanding the abuse of him, he polled 22,472 votes in Alabama, and with not more than 2,500 registered Negro voters in the state. Before the 181,000 colored voters in Alabama were disfranchised, the vote for McKinley was but 54,737, and I doubt not that fully 35,000 of the votes were cast by Negro voters. With all the false praise and hypocritical professions of friendship for the McKinley policy or national administration, the Bourbon democracy had no votes for him and it was in the meantime of "jollying" the kindly hearted president that the constitutional aggressions were being enacted in the south and the demolition of the beacon was determined. It was under the firm administration of President Harrison that the southern democracy saw formidable opposition developed in the south. This opposition became weakened and disorganized under the administration of McKinley. These are facts. The GAZETTE. policy of evasion of the southern question, of pacifying the Bourbon democracy, wrought no strength to southern republicans. The national republican party must find its power in the south with the masses, with those who have felt the misgovernment and have keen knowledge of the fraudulent methods of the machine democracy. Whites who have seen black belt majorities used to count them out in the Kolb campaigns in Alabama, in the Evans fight in Tennessee, in the Pharr contest in Louisiana—these have no confidence in or patience with the leadership or pretenses of the white masses, now criticising southern republicanism right in the face of the democratic election rascality with which their own hands are tainted. The white masses south have not forgotten that the Blair educational bill was defeated by southern democrats, the progeny of the slave-holding aristocracy which neither believes in popular education nor popular government. The masses south are beginning to realize that the republican party is the friend of the south to the extent that its legislation has brought prosperity to southern homes and that antagonizing the southern states does not carry with it absence of friendship for the white masses of the south so long inflicted with the evils of class government and ring rule Bourbonism. President Roosevelt, by his invincible republicanism and his unswerving "square deal" policy of the right thing for all men under the law, will reach the hearts of the masses of the south just as he holds the hearts of the masses north. The press of the south cannot, by misrepresentation, stem the current. The inundation of the ring democracy is going to keep going on with more force and the Bourbon oligarchy is going to go to pieces of its own motion. Determined and vigorous administration at Washington, on fair and fearless lines, will hasten the coming of the time when these stay-at-home whites of the south must be cornered over courage to vote against the old regime. The Negro issue subterfuge will soon have run its career. First of all things, however, before any opposition can thrive in the south, must there be recognition of the right of an honest ballot. There should be national legislation upon this subject, specific and plain. It should reach every section alike. No oligarchy should be permitted to fix the election results to suit the exigencies nor be empowered with ability to establish such an insurmountable barrier of fraud as to cower down and discourage all opposition as futile before its fraud-entrenched sweep.

Y., Discusses an Important Subject Briefly and to the Point. Editor New York Sun—Sir: Some astonishment seems to have been caused in many parts of the country by your report of my speech on the Fourth of July, presumably because I referred therein to the position of Booker T. Washington on the vital question of the civil and political rights of the ten million colored people of our land. The repudiation of Washington's objection to the facetime rebellion and surrender" is not peculiar to me, but is the attitude of perhaps half a million of our intelligent and trained people. Mr. Washington's ideal may be as lofty as his environment permits, but no doctrine of submission to injustice and wrong will be regarded by myriads of his race as other than unrighteous and cowardly. This is tremendously accentuated by the fact that this manufactured leadership is pensioned by the same man who said that he would supply the money if the Negro would let go his citizenship, or that he would just must have surprised when colored people ask this question: "Could Moses have led the Israelites from bondage to freedom had he been pensioned by Pharaoh?" Can Mr. Washington lead ten millions of his fellow-citizens to equality before the law and take his pension from men who do not want us to attain to this equality? Must he not be untrue to one or the other? At the convention of protest against leadership of this character, known as the "Negro Movement," perhaps the most thoughtful colored men of some 24 states announced their eternal opposition to the gilded form and supine soul in the face of "We" tolow the impression to remain that the Negro American assents to inferiority, is submissive under oppression and apologetic before insults. Through helplessness we may submit, but the voice of protest of ten million Americans must never cease to assail the ears of their fellows so long as America is unjust." O. M. WALLER. M. D.

A man may be honest or dishonest in his motive, when he deeds his only home and premisas to a beloved and confiding wife, but it seems not best to do so. Some men may desire to secure their wives with a comfortable home with no intention of defrauding those to whom they may be debtors; while others may be purely sinister in their dealings. But a faithful husband who means to be just and honorable in his dealings with the world and at the same time true and loyal to his family need not purchase and own property in the name of his wife. If he is industrious and means to be honest in meeting his obligations, why may not that husband hold said property in his own name; why should he evade the responsibility of managing what is his purchased right in his own way and at his pleasure? What is the motive that prompts a man to secure himself in the name of his wife? Men of much wealth adopt this method. But if the intention is just and they mean not to defraud, why not the purchaser control that which he calls his? All men should pay their just debts even at a sacrifice of home and comfort. A man may have his reverses in life, but a brave, honest man is happier in the consciousness of right-doing and is not likely to suffer hardships. Men may justify themselves that it is fair to take advantage of their creditors by placing their means beyond the demands of the law, but they need not hope to escape the just censure of thoughtful and honest people. We agree that men may mean to be honest in this respect and are not always to be reproached in having purchased property deeded in the name of their wives. Sometimes an individual would desire to indulge his wife and make her a partner in the ownership of a vast and remunerative estate. Being a man of wealth, he may live beyond the probability of becoming insolvent, and would please the companion of his bosom by making her his guardian in the ownership of an immense fortune. None dare question his right for it may be that already he has shown himself to be the friend and benefactor of the people. But after all, it may be asked, is it safe, is the husband himself secure against all embarrassment who deeds his property to his wife? To her and her heirs he consigns the home. In the course of time suppose the wife dies, leaving heirs, who on reaching their majority, come in and contest the right of the father to the home? Suppose that these heirs insist on a division of the property? The matter is carried to the court. The division is made—the father gets his part and is ousted from his home. It seems then a bad and unsafe policy that property be deeded to the wife. Let our contempories answer. --- SHALL HE HOLD OFFICE? The Christian Advocate, now published in Nashville, Tenn., from recent utterances, seemingly very unfaithful to its tenets, opposes the civil rights of Afro-Americans and in assuming this attitude, takes strong ground against our holding office under the government. No secular or religious organ, exercising the right of free speech, can consistently take such a position without antagonizing the fundamental idea of constitutional government. But this the Advocate has done, and in doing so it has outraged common justice, assailed the right of citizenship, and has committed an assault against the government of the people. Fair dealing is consistency. The Advocate is not consistent—it is not fair dealing. Its plea is one of robbery and outrage. It recognizes the fact that the amendments to the constitution is a foregone finality from which there can be no appeal. It is now well aware that according to these amendments, the Afro-American is invested with all the rights and privileges equally with all other American citizens. Yet it goes behind these amendments, it goes behind the law and the constitution, behind the nation's honor and demands that liberty and justice shall be betrayed, and that the loyal blacks of the country shall be forcibly and ruthlessly robbed of a right which is theirs to all intents and purposes. The Christian Advocate well remembers the bargain entered into by the American people, when the law was ratified by two-thirds of the loyal states, yet in heartless knawishness, it views the "colored brother" with an eye of an avenging demon and demands that of all the races, the Negro, who has suffered and bled and made innumerable sacrifices for the nation, shall be ostracised, proscribed and rejected among a great and magnanimous people. But the fault, if any, is not with the Negro, but rather with those who would persecute him and grudgingly withhold from him his rights. Like the manger dog, it is not content to enjoy the dog, and privileges so generously provided for all Americans, but in supreme meanness and littleness of heart, it asks that others be excluded from a blessing which it claims the right itself to enjoy. A Christian organ, espousing the sacred cause of the blessed Redeemer, smites the very creature for whose uplift, the crucifixion was made. Triumphantly, this righteous mouth-piece of its kind, adds: "For so long as the Negro is outlawed socially—as he always will—be just so long is he ineligible for office, outside of the limited number of offices which would bring him in contact with his own people only." But is such an agreement reasonable and just, and can a truly devout advocate of the doctrine of Holy writ offer such a plea so long as truth and righteousness are maintained as the chief factors in moulding sentiment and guiding the great movement of reform in the world? The government at Washington still lives, but a government that forgets righteousness must reform, must turn from its way of oppression, or that government must go down. Has an English Wife. New York City.—Among the passengers from the "Philadelphia" from Southampton, landing at Ellis Island recently was a rosy-cheeked English girl, clinging affectionately to the arm of an Afro-American whom she claimed as her husband. In support of her statement, the pretty English girl exhibited a framed marriage certificate which shows that Henry Francis Smith, 35 years old, and Beatrice Amella Phillips, 21 years old, were married by special license on July 6 by A. J. Cheverton, registrar, at Southampton, England. Mr. Smith who had plenty of money is a native of St. Mary's county, Maryland, where he owns a farm of about 20 acres. He recently went over to Liverpool on a visit and he met Miss Phillips. They eloped to Southampton.

B., and is the first one of our girls to graduate from the university. Would Wed to Win Freedom: Omaha, Neb. "If you will let me out of jail I'll marry Mary," said A. E.

She had been working for Kenon, who is a section hand, and he became angered and struck her. He became placed and placed under bonds pending a hearing. Kenon declared he loved the old woman and would lose no time in making her his wife, but Judge Berka could not help him out. Honored by the Emperor of Germany. Washington, D. C.—Baron Bussche, the charge of the German embassy, has delivered to the state department a silver watch and chain with the request that they be handed to George C.

Now that we have the seedless orange and apple and stoneless peach, won't some scientist please develop an appendixless NO MORE HEADACHE GENERAL WEAKNESS AND FEVER DISAPPEAR TOO. How a Woman Was Freed from Troubles That Had Made Life Wretched for Many Years. The immediate causes of headaches vary, but most of them come from poor or poisoned blood. In anemia the blood is scanty or thin; the nerves are imperfectly nourished and pain is the way in which they express their weakness. In colds the blood absorbs poison from the mucous surfaces, and the poison irritates the nerves and produces pain. In rheumatism, malaria and the grip, the poison in the blood produces like discomfort. In indigestion the gases from the impure matter kept in the system affect the blood in the same way. The ordinary headache-cures at best give only temporary relief. They deaden the pain but do not drive the poison out of the blood. Dr. Williams' Pink Pills on the contrary thoroughly renew the blood and the pain disappears permanently. Women in particular have found these pills an unfailing relief in headaches caused by anemia. Miss Stella Blocker recently said: "Dr. Williams' Pink Pills did me a great deal of good. I had headache nearly all the time. After I had taken three boxes of these pills I became entirely well." "How long had you suffered?" she was asked. "For several years. I can't tell the exact date when my illness began for it came on by slow degrees. I had been going down hill for many years." "Did you have any other ailments?" "I was very weak and sometimes I had fever. My liver and kidneys were affected as well as my head." "How did you come to take the remedy cured you?" "I came in a southern newspaper a statement of some person who was each of a like trouble by Dr. William Pills. My physician hadn't done me any good, so I bought a box of these pills. After I had taken one box I felt so much better that I kept on until I became entirely well." Miss Blocker's home is at Leander, Louisiana. Dr. Williams's Pink Pills are sold by all druggists. Besides headache they cure neuralgia, sciatica, nervous prostration, partial paralysis and rheumatism. SICK HEADACHE Positively cured by these Little Pigs, tresse from Bypregade.

King Leopold will leave a fortune of $10,000,000, most of which will go to the Belgian people for works of public utility. He regards his daughters as Lear came to regard Regan and Goneril. The daughters will get about $40,000 each. Early in his reign Czar Nicholas caught a bad head cold and asked a humble subject how this annoying allion could be cured. The advice given was that the imperial nose should be anointed at night with tallow from a common candle. Years rolled on and one day by a mere accident the ear had the chance of looking through a book of household expenditures and was amazed to find he had been charged for a pound of tallow candles every night since. New that the German crown prince has been married, court gossips in Europe are considering who is likely to be the bride of Prince Eitel, the kaiser's second son. The general view is that it will be Princess Eva of Battenberg, with whom he was much smitten during a recent visit to England. Princess Eva is quite a pretty girl, just past 17 years old, who was brought up in the simplest manner possible. It is expected that she will inherit largely from her goumother, ex-Empress Eugenie. The duke of Connaught—Prince Arthur of Great Britain—who has just entered upon his fifty-sixth year, was the godson of the duke of Wellington and was taught to have great reverence for the old gentleman. One of the little boy's first efforts at drawing, it is said, was a picture representing the duke and Napoleon engaging in a pistol duel at point blank range. "My dear young prince," said the duke, when shown this youthful production, "remember that, though I fought Bonaparte, I could never see him without the help of a telescope." During King Alfonso's visit to London several stories were told of how he at times shocks the Spanish dons with wild escapades. All these anecdotes, apocryphal or otherwise, helped his popularity with the British public, showing as they did that his 19-year-old majesty is a real boy and not altogether a royal milk-supp. He rides reckless races with young rings up the guard unexpectedly from men in mischief and generally plays the saxophone and leads of his age. Among his own subjects of the rank and file these pranks do him good, for even the Spaniard likes to think that his sovereign can do something human and unceremonious. PERSONAL PARTICULARS. The family of the late Gen. Gomes has presented the jeweled sword he received from an American to the National museum of Havana. The late Mary A. Livermore was once called "the Daniel Webster of American women" because of her majestic mien, solidity of character, Doric simplicity of thought and weight of utterance. Miss Bessie Bain, who lives on a farm near Chatham, N. Y., has been appointed an overseer of highways in her district. Miss Bain declares she will see that the work is well done. She intends to have the best section of road in the township. Miss Helen Buck, president of the graduating class at Mount Holyoke college, probably is the greatest woman athlete in the world, but in attaining that distinction has sacrificed none of her studies.

Coffee Acts the Jonah and Will Come Up. A clergyman who pursues his noble calling in a country parish in Iowa, tells of his coffee experience: "My wife and I used coffee regularly for breakfast, frequently for dinner, and occasionally for supper—always the very best quality—package coffee never could find a place on our table. "In the spring of 1896 my wife was taken with violent vomiting which we had great difficulty in stopping. "It seemed to come from coffee drinking, but we could not decide. "In the following July, however, she was attacked a second time by the vomiting. I was away from home filling an appointment at the time, and on my return I found her very low; she had literally vomited herself almost to death, and it took some days to quiet the trouble and restore her stomach. "I had also experienced the same trouble, but not so violently, and had relieved it, each time, by a resort to medicine. "But my wife's second attack satisfied me that the use of coffee was at the bottom of our troubles, and so we stopped it forthwith and took on Postum Food Coffee. The old symptoms of disease disappeared, and during the 9 years that we have been using Postum instead of coffee we have never had a recurrence of the vomiting. We never weary of Postum, to which we know we owe our good health. This is a simple statement of facts." Name given by Postum Company, Battle Creek, Mich. Read the little book "The Road t.

(Special)—Nearly every newspaper tells of some wonderful cure of some form of Kidney Disease by the American Kidney Disease Dodd's Kidney Pills, and this part of Amnaseus is not without its share of evidence that no case is too deeply rooted for Dodd's Kidney Pills to cure.

KIDNEY TROUBLES Increasing Among Women, But Sufferers Need Not Despair THE BEST ADVICE IS FREE Of all the diseases known, with which the female organism is afflicted, kidney disease is the most fatal, and statistics show that this disease is on the increase among women. Mrs. Emma Sawyer Unless early and correct treatment is applied the patient seldom survives when once the disease is fastened upon her. Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound is the most efficient treatment for kidney troubles of women, and is the only medicine especially prepared for this purpose. When a woman is probed with pain or cramps, backache, frequent, painful or sealing urination, swelling of limbs or feet, swelling under the eyes, an uneasy, tired feeling in the region of the kidneys or notices a brick-dust sediment in the urine, she should lose no time in commencing treatment with Lydia E.

I met a girl for a year, but I kept getting worse, until I was unable to do anything, and I made up my mind I could not live. I finally decided to go to a hospital, where I got a pound as a last resort, and I am to-day a well woman. I cannot praise it too high, and I tell every suffering woman about my case."

Honey Press "Where Ignorance Is Bliss 'Tis Folly to Be Wise" In some parts of the world they still use a sharp stick and a cow to plough their fields and goodness only knows how they can ever make that kind of agriculture pay, even where labor is cheap. In many parts of this glorious up-to-date country the women still make object slaves of themselves over wash-tub, the same as their great, great grandmothers did more than a century ago. In the one instance, the antiquated heathen doesn't know a plough from a pumpkin and would be afraid to use one if he did. On the other hand, what shall we say of a woman of the present day who clings to the old method of washing the small animals to buy a Majestic Rotary Wash Machine will save her labor, time, money and fatigue and give the most absolute satisfaction in every way.
