no reason in the world why every woman
in the world should not be strong and health
full and capable of fulfilling her whole duty
as wife and mother. Many women go on
month after month, and year after year, be-
coming weaker and weaker, because of a
very natural hesitancy they feel in consult
ing physician. They know that if they go
to doctor for treatment, the first thing he
will insist on will be examination " and
"local treatment" This must of course be

TO STIMULATE TRADE.
Both England and Germany Will Remodel
Their Consular Service.

Both England and Germany Will Remodel
Their Consular Service.
WASHINGTON, Sept. Thomas Ew-
ing Moore, United States commercial
agent at Weimar, has called the at
tention of the department of state to
the fact that the British government
has taken steps to supplement- its con-
sular service by the appointm of
commercial attaches. The. beginning
of this service has been noted with
alarm by England's greatest trade
competitor, Germany, where an agita-
ton has begun looking to the reform
of the German consular service to meet
England's action, involving a special
education and preparation of young
men for consular careers. Mr.. Moore
attributes this agitation in both Great
Britain and Germany for the remodel
ing of the consular service to percep-
ton of the excellent results attending
the development by the United States
OF a system of special consular reports
upon matters calculated to benefit
American producers and merchants.

fort to Elect.

Little Rock, Ark, Sept. S.-GeEeraIE
Dan w Jones of Little Rock was to-
day elected governor of Arkansas, and
the entire Democratic state ticket has
been. successful at the polls. There
were but two full tickets in the field,
the Democratic and Republican, the
Populists contenting themselves with
candidate for governor. General Jones
and Mr.. Regnmel, the Republican can
1idate, made an active canvass OF the
state, but Files, the Populist nominee,
made no speeches.
The Democrats put forth special eff
forts to roll up a, large majority in this
election for its moral effect ON the free
silver cause in other states in Novem-
per- and ante-election estimates have
placed Jones majority as high as $4,000
over combined opposition.
In Little Rock, interest in the election
centered on the liquor license question.
Never before in the history of the city
had there been such a campaign against
license. The religious element, the w.
y. T. U. and the ministers especially
have been busily engaged for more than
a month in the effort ito vosse no license,
and were joined in the movement by the
Republicans, who hoped in defea ting
license to break up the So-called Pulaski
county Democratic ring. Two big
mass meetings were held by the PrOhi-
bitioniStS yesterday and prayer meet
1ngs We're held every hour in the City
churches today. At .. m. enough re
turns have been received from city poll
ing places to indicate that license has
carried by small majority and that
the regular Democratic ticket in this
county has carried by about the usual
majority.

EUROPE'S WRATH AROUSED.

Some Action Certain to BE Taken to Bring
About Reform in Turkey.
LONDON, Sept. THE recent atroci-
ties at Constantinople have been thor
oughly and earnestly discussed by all
classes during the week, and have
aroused the wrath of Europe to such
an extent that it will probably compel
action upon the part of at least some
of the powers and force the sultan to
make a radical change in the admins
tration Of his empire. There is already
evidence that the bugbear of a gen.
eral European war is no longer suffi-
cient TO guarantee Turkey immunity
for its misdeeds. The warships of va
rious nations are gathering in the Lee
want, led by squadron consisting of a
score of British ships, which are ready
to respond to a sign from Sir Phillip
Currie, the British ambassador at Con,
stantinople.

from basement to the fourth story

into sheet of flame throughout the
entire audience room almost instaA-
taneously, and before the fire depart

NEW YORK, Sept. 7.-Gen. Francis A
Walker, president of the Boston Insti-
tute CT Technology. returned on the
steamship ST. Paul Friday from a trip
abroad, whittier he went to attend the
British bimetallic meeting in London.
Gen. Walker said that the meeting was
attended by all of the leading bimetal-
lists of England. He returned more
than ever confirmed in his belief in BIZ
pe.tallism. He said it is an open secret
that Lord Salisbury is a strong adher-
ent of the bimetallic idea. Gen.
Walker believed that it would be sui
cidal for the United States to take the
initiative, while independent action
would be injurious to the cause of true
bimetallism, and he for that reason
was opposed to it.

TO CRUSH CUBA.

Spain Will Make One Supreme Effort to
End the Rebellion.
NEW YORK, Sept. 7.-Spain is prepar-
ing to make a supreme effort in Cuba
in the hope of crushing the insurrec-
ton there before the uprising in the
Philippine islands divides the Spanish
forces. To this end the govern
ment at Madrid has chartered in this
country and in Great Britain seven
transatlantic steamships in which
to transport troops to Gu ba
and to Manila. Possibly two or
three of the vessels will be used for
coast defense purposes, or to cruise
about the Atlantic between the United
States and the. Spanish possessions in
search of filibusters If these vessels
are all used, Spain will be able to land
$4,000 troops in Havana every five or
six weeks

'sTHE OLD SALT DOCTOR.'
MT. VIM @. Hart Relates an In

From the World Herald. omchc. Neh

Mr. William c. Hars, favorably known
among his friends and acquaintances as
1.-THE Old Salt Doctor is probably the most
familiar character in the vicinity of
Twenty-fourtll and Franklin streets. Omaha,
Nebraska. Mr. Hart is now over 50.
An interesting history of his recovery
from common malady follows: A little
over five years ago became afflicted with a
malady, he name of which do not know
My family have been troubled the same
when they arrived at my &c, and they said
L was on the same road anu that there was
no cure for me. The symptoms were, dizzi-
ness. loss of memory. and an utter prostra-
ton of the nerves. The most notable
trouble was swimming OF the head. when
came in from a walk or was out standing
in The sun Or doing any kind of exercise at
all. When I would sit down, my head
would swim and everything would dance
before nv eyes, and / would become so
dizzy that would have to hold to a chair TO
keep from falling; or if were sitting down
and got up suddenly. everything would
Whlrl before me. and would have to hold
to the chair for some little time; my men,
DRY was so poor that it was difficult for me
to remember some of my test friends. This
state of things continued for about year
and half, and kept getting worse aud
worse: could not remember anything. and
my head was Ill Il constant whlrl; every,
thing swan before me so that life was
really miserable.
I went to my druggist. Mr.. Shrader. on
Twenty-fourth and Clark streets, and got a
box of Pink Pills for trial, and after taking
a few doses I began to feel the effects and
found thas they were doing me good. When
the first box was gone l got another and an
other until l had taken four boxes and 1
was entirely relieved. And now. although
my memory is not so good as it was forty
years ago, it is greatly improved, and is
better than maIy mems memory that are
much younger than I; my dizziness is en-
tirely gone, AID my nerves are strong as
they were ten years ago, and DR.. Williams
Pink Pills did it too. cannot speak too
highly of DR.. Williams Pink Pills, and
have, and shall continue to recon mend
them 10 all my friends or ny one else that
is in need of Strengthening tonic.
The reporter interviewed Mr.. Shradcr,
the druggist, and many of Mr.. Harris
friends and acquaintances in regard to his
statements, and they all tod the same story
as to Mr.. Harris recovery from his malady.

are now given to the public as an nnfailing

HINTS FOR THE HOME LAUNDRY.

The difficulty experienced by house
keepers generally in having washing
done at home causes many who can i'll
afford the expense to send their clothes
to laundries, where inferior soap and
injurious washing fluids are used,
while if proper attention is given the
work it may be done quite as satisfac-
torily in the home laundry.
Assert the clothes, divide the table
and bed linen from the wearing apparel,
and the fine garments from the colored.
First immerse the white articles in
hot water and wash carefully with
Ivory soap. After all are taken through
the suds, put in a tub, pour boiling wa
ter over them, let cool, wash out in clear
water, rinse in blue water, wiring
starch and hang on the line. The col
ored clothes should then be washed
il the same way, without scalding.
When all are dry they should be taken
from the line, sprinkled, folded evenly
and laid in the clothes basket. The
ironing must be done with hot. clean
irons, and the clothes hung up to air.
