Thousands of women are cast-up dead

ignorance or neglect. No woman can be
free from pain, or safe from the ever-threat-
ening breakers of death. who neglects to
take proper care of the organs that con-
neglects her womanly-self will be sickly,
nervous, pairi-racked and fretful, and ap-
preaching maternity will be menace of the
grave. 1t is easy for woman to avoid this

JUDGE HIT.BoRN's PLAyMATEs.
One Was Senator Hale and the Othe,

Warrington, March 31.-Judge Hilborn
of California, who was Maine boy, told
an interesting coincidence at the Mckay
dinner to Secretary Long.
''When I was a pupil at Hebron A CA
denny, over forty years ago. said he,
there we're two boys in the academy to
whom was especially attracted. One
came up from Turner. He Was bright
spirited little fellow, the best holar in
his classes, very quick to learn and the
sort of d boy thar every body said would
amount to something bye and-bye. His
name was Gene Hale. The other came
from Bucktield, and he was a year or two
every body liked. We all called him
Johnnie Long. He was the marvel of
the school in Latin. He had read Virgil
through and knew great deal of 1T by
heart. He was wonder, too, in Latin
grammar. After we left school I wen.
west and lost sight of both of them.
Now I am here a member of the naval
com mituee in the House. Gene Hale is
at the head of the naval committee in
the Senate, and Johnnie Long is Score
tary of the Navy.
"That is not all. When I went to
California ] struck Vallejo, a rough
shipping toWn, the aristooracy of which
consisted of caulkers and ship chambers.
at the hotel put up at there was only
one man besides myself who wore q
boiled shirt. He was handsome young
fellow and We struck up friendship
right away. I found he came from
Oharlestown, Mass. His name was Phil
II iohborn. He ia Commodore Phillip
Hichbron now, the chief constructor OF
the navy, and he is here ut this dinner

learn what the disease is and apply the
remedy which has proven the most direct

A TURKISH LIE.
Greeks Deny That They Have
Been Forced to Retreat.
Hold all Four Roads from Frontier to
Turkish Center at Gravena.
Have Ample Forces, in impregndbe Positions
and Will Stay There.

Larissa, April l5.-There is no truth
in the Turkish reports saying that the
Greek regulars have been driven out Of
Macedonia. 1t is true that q few of the
irregulars. who formed part of the ex
reditionary force, have returned into
Greek territory; but these are men who
for some reason have been unable "a
keep up with the main body Of the
Greeks and, consequently, they haze
retreated across the frontier.
The main body of the irregulars Is
continuing its successful operations
against Turkey, with the view Of cut
ting the Turkish lines Ct communica-
tion, getting in the rear of the Turks
and raising the Macedons against the
rule of the Sultan. The report of the
capture Of Kipuri. north Of Baltino by
the Greeks is confirmed ana. in addi
ton. the main forces Of the ir:agu!ars
Of the expedtionary force have ad-
vanced as far as pigavit2a. where there
is an important bridge across a noun

The Greek ilregulaTs now hold all Of
the four roads lyalng from the Thes-
saliaG frontier in the direction OF

lions OF the frontier. their Well-huilt

block houses being in plain view from
the Greek lines. But the irge gulars
have made . decided change in the
situation.
Another feature of the operations
which looks favorable to the Greeks IS
in the fact in accordance to reports re-

conceived ana executed with great
skill.
The roads in Thessaly are in eXcellent
