As the reports from Minister Terrell
at Constantiuople show that there is
grave reason 30 apprehend further re-
ligious outbreaks in Turkey, by which
the safety Of American residents there
will be threatened, Secretary Herbert,
at the instance Of the department Of
state, has issued general instructions to
Admiral Selfridge, on the coast o.
Africa, to afford protection and shelter
aboard the four vessels of his fleet to
any American who may be disposed to
accept it. No attempt will be made
to send any force from the vessels into
the interior of the country, as It Is
realized that this would be utterly i'm
practicable with the men at hand, and
impolitic as well, but as Mr.. Terrell
has informed the state department that
he can secure safe conduct to tie coast
of any of the American missionaries
who can be induced to leave their sta
tiona, the government feels that IT has
done al within its power 10 secure the

AS she recalled the past, and tried to
penetrate the future, a smile OF supreme
satisfaction passed over her honest face
as she remembered that her lte's work
would be perpetuated .,
The room in which she sat contained
hundreds of volumes of records; and,
turning to her daughter, she said, - :,
"My daughter, this room, as you wen
know, contains the records of my LIES
work, in which for many years you have
SO diligently assisted me.
"By earnest application you have COM
passed my methods; and it is a happl-
ness to think that when l leave, the
glorious work will, through you, go on.
"The mission is noble one. DO as
have done: never permit woman's ap-
peal to go unheeded.
"These records tell of every case ever
submitted to me; and it is my wish that
the facts they contain shall in time prove
a much-needed education to the women
of the world"
Thus did Lydia E. Pinkham hand over
to her daughter, Mrs. Charles d.. Plnk-

of her sex; and that wonderful remedy,
