THE DUTY OF MOTHERS.
Daughters Should be Carefully
Guided in Early Womanhood.

What suffering frequently results
from a mothers ignorance; or more
frequently from mothers neglect to
properly instruct her daughter!
Tradition says woman must suffer,
and young women are so taught
There is little truth and great deal
of exaggeration in this. If young
woman suffers severely she needs
treatment and her mother should see
that she gets it.
Many mothers hesitate to take thei1
daughters to physician for examina~
ton; but no mother need hes Gate to
write freely about her daughter on
herself to Mrs. Pinlham and secure
the most efficient advice without
charge. Mrs. Pinkham's address nj
Lynn, Mass.
The following letter from Miss MARIE
F. JOHNSON, Centralia, Pa, SHOWS wha1
neglect will do, and tells how MIRA 1
Pinkham helped her:
envy health became SO poor that
had to leave school. I was tired all tho3
time, and had dreadful pains in myj
side and back. was also troubleaa
with irregularity of menses. I waaa
very weak, and lost so much flesh thata
nv friends became alarmed. N.Y.
mother, who is firm believer in youE
remedies from experience, thought per-
haps they might benefit me, and wrote
you for advice. I followed the advice
you gave, and used Lydia E. Pinkham's
Vegetable Compound and Liver Pills al
you directed, and am now as well as Il
ever was. | have gained flesh and have
a good color. [ am completely cured o.

According to a recent London esti-
mate only about $4,000 American
tourists visited the English capital in
the course of the past season and
this is regarded as a very poor catch.
The average tourist from the states y
we are told, scatters about $1,000
while making three months trip in
Europe. This multiplied by $4,000
makes $25,OOO,00O, and of that
amount, it is believed, London re-
ceives at least two-ffths. Paris
gets more American money than Lon
don does, not because more Ameri-
cans go there, but because the French
capital wins the trade of all the wo-
men, and this is both larger and
more profitable than that of the men,
to whose needs and tastes the Lon
don shops more especially cater.
The Italian government has re-
solved to found at Florence at public
expense library of all the books
which have incurred the censure Of
the sacred congregation of the index
The vatican has protested against the
measure on the ground that the ma
jority of the books in question are
improper to the last degree, and that
the establishment of a collection of
such a nature is an affront rather
against public morality than against
the discipline of the church.

AN ANCIENT CUSTOM.
From Republican Traveller, arkansas city.

From Republican Traoe1er, Arkansas CITY
kaG
Pilgrimages to some shrine of st. Vitus
to cure the disease known as st. Nitus'
dance are no longer made. The modern
way of treating this atfiiction is within
reach of every household, as is shown by
the experience of Karl A. Wagner. the
1-year-old son of George Wagner of 515
9th street, Arkansas City. Kan. The
father tells the story as follows:
Over year ago he says. Karl was
taken with St Vitus' dance and continued
to grow worse; during FIVE months he was
under physicians care. His tongue be-
came paralyzed and we could not under
stand word he said. He became very
thin, lost the use of his right leg and
seemed doomed to become a hopeless in
valid. We had about given up hope when

mended to my wife by a lady whose
daughter had been cured of a similar af-
fiction by the pills.

''That was six months ago and there
has been no return of the disease. The
cure was effectual and permanent, and I
feel satisfied that no other medicine could

Our American Policy.

The policy of this country regarding for
eign complications seems likely to remain
conservative. The Monroe doctrine will
be sustained, but patience and prudence in
official quarters will restrain public opin-
ion. The wisest and most prudent course
for the rheumatic and the malarious is to
use Hostetter's Stomach Bitters.

Az RETOIR.

Our best wishes go with the members Of
the Second Regiment to-day on their tour
OF duty in Florida. or wherever else the
fate of war may place them. Three Of the
companies are from Richmond. and their
officers and men we know well and great
ly love, while their comrades are en-
deared to us also by the good accounts
we have heard of them.
They are all good and true Virginians,
and we expect them to distinguish them
selves whenever the opportunity is open
TO them. 1t will nerve them for the most
difficult and dangerous undertakings to
know, as they must know. that the peo-
pie of the old Commonwealth rely upon
them to win new honors for her, and to
wear worthily the name Of Virginia vol
unteers.
We wish them a safe journey, trium-
plant campaign. and an early and joyous
return from the war.
