A Woman Talks

The SEX shuns Publicity ON Their own
Weaknesses From Sense of False
Modesty.
From the Times, Los angeles, Cal

From the Times, Los angeles Cal.
Women suffer from certain diseases pecu.
liar to their sex, and usually have great
delicaey in speaking of such ills. Just why,
we cannot say. There would seem to be no
more reason for silence in such matters than
there is about the ordinary every day ills.
Occasionally, however, q woman of strong
sense is found, and is an exception to the
rule. Such a one is Mrs. Rosie s. Thomp-
son, of S19 East First Street, Los Angeles,
Cal. This is what she says:
"For five or six years was seriously i'll
with female complaint. 1 could not go
about, suffered intense pain, and at times
I was hardly able to raise myself up in bed
1 was then living in San Bernardino and
consulted q physician who thought he could
cure me. For seven months l was under
his care taking his prescriptions, but he did
me no good at all, and / grew worse instead
of better. Finally | tried another physician
and I was under his care for several months,
but he did me no more good than the first
one. l tried all sorts of remedies without
any beneficial effects.
"Finally / saw an advertisement of DR..
Williams Pink Pills for Pale People, and
resolved to try them. | began taking the
pills. The effect was wonderful. Almost
Immediately / began to improve. | have

the only one l would recommend. / am

And now comes the miraculous part Of
the story, just as she told 1t to the inter-
viewer last night:

"and suffered tortures from those terrible

So spoke young and attractive Maude
Lease, and no one who saw her big eyes snap
as she said it could doubt the earnestness
and sincerity of her statements.
And that is why we say the story of .
miracle is floating through the air, although
now the miracle has become an established
fact.

The feeling is bitter against Sheriff
McLain, against whose life threats
have been freely made during the
afternoon and, if he was here tonight.
it is believed there would be trouble
again. Sheriff McLane left here at
2 p. m for Dayton. He escaped by
the back door of the jail and claims
that dynamite was being prepared to
blow him up.
In the excitement and bitterness
that prevails, it is almost impossible
to get at the facts as to the response

orally claimed that Sheriff McLain
ordered the troops to fire.

They Moved On.

:. The band of Mexicans that has
been visiting up-valley towns, reached
Salem early last evening, when they
met with a cool reception. Chief Of
Police A. G. Dllley and Sheriff e. E.
Cooper met the band in the Eastern
part of the city and escorted them
through the business center of the
Capital City and across the big bridge
into Polk county, the imperative COM
mand of "moYe on" was given with
considerable emphasis. They moved.
1t seems the MeXicans were told by
up-valley residents that the state fair
was in session at Salem, which
proved an additional inducement to
hasten to the Capital City, but the
state fair management not being de-
sirous of securing any such attraction
saw to it that they continue their
journey northward.
