Loose clothes and downy cushions
bring only negative sort of comfort 10
the woman who is suffering with some
disease Or arrangement of the organs
distinctly feminine. Some clothes and
some positions make the pain and the
discomfort seem less, Perhaps the nerves
are most affected and this in turn dis
turbs the digestion. Nothing will ever
completely relieve but radical cure.
The start Of so called "female complaints"
may be very slight thing indeed. 1t
may he that in the beginning some small
hygienic measures would stop the trouble.
Certainly at this time, little bit of the
right medicine would stop ii. When the
trouble becomes worse, it is harder to
cure, but still it can be cured. DIR. Picrce's

Michigan For Burrows.

Michigan wants Senator Burrows re.
elected. Three-fourths OF the members
of the coming legislature have been III
structed for him, or have publicly eX-
dressed "a preference for his return to the
United State senate The delegation
from western Michigan is unit for him.
A majority of the members from eastern
Michigan favor him. Ninety-five per
cent W the Republican voters III the
state are anxious for his continuance in
office; they admire and love him. The
Republican party needs him, demands
his return. and will have no one else.
1t could not be otherwise. Senator
Burrows has always been a Republican
and has always stood on Republican
principles. Since the party was organ
lied his voice has been heard in every
campaign. For quarter OF century
he has been in public life and his record
is the pride of our state. He sat with
Mckinley in committee and helped
make the Mckinley tariff law. He took
the place of John Sherman on the senate
finance committee and assisted in fran
ing the Dingley law. He was one OF the
senate conferees who completed that law
and he has just pride in its benefits tc
American industry. He has always
been for sound money. For years ht
has aided in making the Republican pol
icies which have won party victories
and brought everlasting benefits to the
American people. He has never failec
10 foster and care for the interests o
Michigan.
For a third OF century Senator Bur
rows has given constant aid to the Re
publ.cpns of Michigan and no one ha
done more effectual party service. u
the receat campaign he gave Michigan
his undivided attention and worked da!
and night from beginning to end. NJ
one did more than he TO win complet
party victory.
Under present conditions 1t would b
|, patty blunder to elect any one else
Under present sentiment 1t will be part
