Holding the Philippines.
WASHINGTON, Sept. 15.-The news.
papers reaching the state department
in the official mails from the East show
that the almost universal ex Expression in
the public press of Japan is in favor of
the United States holding permanently
and governing the Philippine islands.
The position taken is that it will be in
the interest of peace and commerce
and good government.
The editorials insist that this is the
only issue of the matter that will sat.
isfy the highest interests of the island
and the demands of civilization. Tn,
papers declare that the United States,
in assuming control of the islands, will
receive the moral support, ii not the
active cooperation OF Japan and Great

eff price can be placed on pain, Mothers
Friend is worth its weight in gold as an allevi
ator. My wife suffered more in ten minutes with
either of her other two children than she did al
together with her last, having previously used
four bottles of Mothers Friend. It is blessing

Thus writes Henderson Dale, Druggist,
of Carmi, ILL.,, to the Bradfeld Regulator
Company, of Atlanta, Ca, the proprie-
tors and manufacturers of Mothers
Friend" This successful remedy is not
one of the many internal medicines adj
vertised to do unreasonable things, but q
scientifically prepared liniment especially
effective in adding strength and elasticity
to those parts of woman's organism which
bear the severest strains of childbirth.
The liniment may be used at any and
all times during pregnancy up to the
very hour of confinement. The earlier il
is begun, and the longer used, the more
perfect viii be the result, but it has been
used during the last month only with
great benefit and success.
It not only shortens labor and lessons
the pain attending it, but greatly dimin.
ishes the danger to life of both mothel
and child, and leaves the mother in con.
dition more favorable to speedy recovery.
