eycesses could not sleep, had no appe-
tite, my memory was failing. and lie to me
was an almost complete failure. SO many
doctors had treated ME and had failed to
help me that | had about lost all hope. As
last resort, and with hardly any faith, tried
DR.. Walker. He has cured me sound and
well, and [ never can say enough IN his
praise. / have been a justice OF the peace for

Secretary Avery, of the National Council,
Establishes Temporary Headquarters.
Mrs. Rachael Foster Avery, secretary of the
National Council of Women, which begins its
second triennial session here on February
II, arrived in the city;yesterday and estab-
llshed temporary headquarters at the Vino
daughsis. Mrs. Avery has corps of half
dozen young lady clerks, who are ably assist
ing her in sending out programmes and circu-
lars concerning the convention.
Il have already mailed about II 600 pro-
grammes and circulars to women in every
section of the country" said Mrs. Avery yes
terday afternoon, ''but | expect to send out
almost as many more during the next week.
OF course, all these women will not attend
the sessions, but it is the desire of the Ma
tional Council to keep them informed and in
terested regarding our work. When they re-
ceive a programme when the council is in
session the daily papers containing accounts
OF the proceedings will be carefully read. "
There will probably be only about 200 regu-
lar delegates to the council. Each national
society is entitled to but two representatives
who are allowed to participate in the pro-
ceedings Besides these, however, there will
be about 800 fraternal delegates and visitors,
who belong to womens organizations, not
members of the National Council. These
will be given delegates badges, but cannot
take part in the scussions.
Mrs. Avery said the officers of the National
Council will arrive here the latter part of
next week. She will establish permanent
headquarters at the Ebbitt House within two
or three days.
