Says the New York Times: eff we
stop a moment to think ofit, it is very
remarkable that the absolute oblitera-
e7an of sectional lines in the vote in
Che House on the defense bill excites
mo remark whatever. 1t is to-day as
natural thing that General Joe
Wheeler, of Alabama, one of the most
aallant Of Confederate cavalry leaders,
ahould greet Mr.. Cannon's bill with a
shout OF applause as it was thirty
years ago General Wheeler was barred
from Congress by his Confederate
Commission. The men who Tough
each other in that fierce arbitration by
ahs sword are now so completely
American, their feelings, convictions,
anterests are in such harmony on
questions Of national import, that
4heir common action is no more doubt
cd on one part than on the other. Yet
s7rfs fact, to which our familiarity
blinds us, is not only of tremendous
Importance, but is wholly without
precedent in the history Of the world.
Never was there so desperate and
Bloody a Civil War, never so rapid
and complete establishment of ma
4zonal unity. The historian of the
next generation, sufficiently remote to
catch the perspective of our rapidly
moving national changes, will see this
more plainly than we, and he will find
more interesting than the great strug-

YOUNG AT SIXTY.

Serene comfort and happiness in ad-

lively few women.
Their hard lives, their liability to Sc

liar organism and their profound igno-
rance concerning themselves, all COM
bine to shorten the period of usefulness
and fill their later years with suffering.
Mrs. Pinkham has done much to make
women strong. She has given advice
to many that has shown them how to
guard against disease and retain vigor-
GUS health in old age. From every cor
ner of the earth there is constantly com
ing the most convincing statements
from women, showing the efficacy Of
Lydia E. Pinkhams Vegetable Com
pound in overcoming female ills. Here
is a letter from Mrs. j. c. Orms, of 220
Horner St., Johnstown, Pa, which is
earnest and straight to the point:
"DEAR MRS. PINKHAM:-I feel it my
duty to tell all suffering women that
think your remedies are wonderful.
had trouble with my head, dizzy spells
and hot flashes. Feet and hands were
cold, was very nervous, could not sleep
well, had kidney trouble, pain in
ovaries and congestion of the womb.
Since taking your remedies 1 am better
every way My head trouble is all
gone, have no pain in ovaries, and am
cured of womb trouble. I can eat and
sleep we'll and am gaining in flesh. 1
consider your medicine the best to be
had for female troubles"
The present Mrs. Pinkham's expert
ence in treating female ills is unparal-
lelled, for years she worked side by
side with Mrs. Lydia E. Pinkham, and
for sometime past has had sole charge
of the correspondence department Of
her great business, treating by letter
as many as hundred thousand ailing
women during single year.
