Her doctor says, "cheer up, you have
dyspepsia; you'll be all right soon."
But she doesn't get "all right" She
grows worse day by day, till all at once
she realizes that distressing female
complaint is established.
Her doctor has made mistake.
She has lost faith in him; hope van

Her doctor, IL he knew, should have
told her and cured her, but he did not,
and she was allowed to suffer. BY
chance she came across one OF Mrs.
Pinkham's books, and in it she found
her very symptoms described and an
explanation of what they meant. Them
she wrote to Mrs PinlSham, at Lynroo
Mass, for advice, feeling that she was
telling her troubles to a woman.
Speedy relief followed, and vigorous
health returned.

Thirty-fifth day.-No session of the

by the agricultural department raised
an interesting discussion, but the

item.
SENATE-36th day-The discussion of
the Nicaragua canal bill was continued
but was not brought much nearer to a
conclusion owing to the opposition of
Mr.. Villas and others. Senator Teller,

by Mr.. Stewart, of Nevada, was agreed
to, requesting the secretary of the in

gress of the survey in Alaska during
the last year. Mr.. Hoar, of Massa-

dating the United States circuit and
district courts. The senator said the
bill was of great Importance and was
introduced to inaugurate consideration
of the subject without expectation of
speedy action. In executive session
the arbitration treaty between the
United States and Great Britain was
reported with the amendments made
by the committee on foreign relations.
One of the two amendments which are
essential strikes out the clause pro-
viding for the selection of King Oscar
of Sweden as umpire, leaving it to the
two powers to select an umpire when
ever it is considered necessary. The
other amendment is in addition TO the
first article of the treaty and reads as
follows: mo question which affects
the foreign domestic policy of either of
the contracting parties or the relations
of either with any other state or
power, by treaty or otherwise, shall be
subject to arbitration under this treaty
except by special agreement" Some
discussion was had as to when the treaty
would be taken up for consideration,
and disposition was shown that it
should go over until it could be printed
as amended. Several senator's an
nounced their intention of giving as
much publicity to the treaty as posi-
