YOUNG AT SIXTY.

Serene comfort and happiness in I'D
vauced years are realized by compare
lively few women.
Their hard lives, their liability to Sc
rious troubles on account of their pccu-
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. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound in overcoming female ills. Here
is a letter from Mrs. j. @. 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. l
had trouble with my head, dizzy spells

cold, was very nervous, could not sleep
well, had kidney trouble, pain in
ovaries and congestion of the womb.
Since taking your remedies I am better
every way My head trouble is all
gone, have no pain in ovaries, and am
cured of womb trouble. L can eat and
sleep well and am gaining in flesh.
consider your medicine the best to be
had for female troubles"
The present Mrs. PinSham's expert
ence in treating female ills is unparal-
lelled, for years she worked side by
side with Mrs. Lydia Z. Pinkham, and
for sometime past has had sole charge
OF the correspondence department of
her great business, treating by letter
as many as a hundred thousand ailing
women during single year.

ACCORDING to the Washington
Star, the action of the Democratic
caucus reveals both the weakness and
the absurdity of the attempt to make
partisan rather than a patriotic
question out of American duty in the
Philippines. The caucus was called
to define the attitude of the minority
members Of the House toward that
matter. The result is a deliverance
as vague, as elastic, as adjustable as
ever was framed. 1t may mean any
thing or nothing, as partisan occa-
sion may demand. American evacu-
alton in thirty days, or American oc-
cupation for hundred years, could
be defended under it.

Despite Cheering Reports, Grave
Doubts Are still Entertained.
Rome, March 3.-Thc latest news from
the Vatican is that the popc's tempera-
ture at midnight had fallen several
points. 1t appears that his Discrimination
TO observe the recommendation of his
physicians forms an obstacle in the way
Of prompt recovery lie has full con
idence in his own strength, and does
not readily acquiesce in their advice not
to move. During the afternoon he in
sisted upon leaving his bed without as
sistance, and also read several tele-
grams The rise in his temperature,
which had given some anxiety, was prob,
ably caused in part in this way.
The pope said during the day:
1T is u miracle of God that | am still
alive for he wishes to spare his church
a terrible crisis at the present moment -
AT O'Clock in the afternoon the doc.
tors made a prolonged visit, lasting more
than an hour, which caused some un-
easiness, but on leaving they gave re-
assuring reports, Professor Mazzoni say
ing there was not the least fear that the
pleura, bronchial tubes or lungs would
be affected. The popes nephew also
visited him in the course of the after
noon and left his chamber much pleased
at his progress.
Despite these optimist reports how
ever, very grave doubts are entertained
as to the issue of the Illness
His holiness, it seems, displaying great
interest in the matter, has asked the
doctors as to the best way of preserving
the cyst, explaining that he intended,
when he should have recovered, to dis
sect it for purposes Of study.

A Private's Sensational Story Contrt

A Private's Sensational Story Contra
dlcted by His superior Omcer.
Washington, March 3.-There were
several interesting developments in the
beef court of inquiry yesterday. 1t
was a field day for the volunteer arm
of the service, the waiting room being
filled all day with members Of the various
volunteer regiments which served in
Cuba and Porto Rico. The first Of these,
Clarence Walters, of the First Volun-
teer engineers, told a sensational story
of hardship and inhumanity suffered dur
ing his service describing the canned
roast beef in harsher terms than have
ever before been applied to that much
discussed article. Later in the day Lieu
tenant Sewell, U. S. A., who was major
of the volunteer battalion in which Wal
ters served, contradicted his story com
pletely, saying there was no canned
roast beef aboard the transport which
took the command to Porto Rico. Fur
ther than that, he said Walters had
come to him after landing and asked
to be discharged so as to accept a po-
sitiOn as newspaper correspondent, and
on being questioned said that he had
been well treated while in the service and
had no complaint to make.
An important development was the de-
nial of the story by one James Farnan
and also attributed to DR.. Maxwell Chris
tine, of Philadelphia, that they had seen
beef injected with chemicals in an Oma-
ha packing house. DR.. Christine ex-
planned that what he had seen was the
picking of corned meats, the brine being
injected into the meat to save several
weeks time in the picking vat

are signs of clogged kidneys. causing poisoned

Colorado,s Fieree SNOW storm.

Leadville Colo, March 3.-The snow
storm which began here at midnight Sun
day shows no signs of abatement. The
railroads are completely tied up west
of this city and are running but few
trains east. The outlook here is most
discouraging. There has been a loss to
this community for a month past of over
$4,000 a day in wages, in addition to
heavy losses of mine owners through
failure to make shipments and carry on
development work. The storm in the
region embracing Breckenridge, Dillon.
Kokomo, Robinson, Dickey, Climax and
Wheeler is worse today than for week
past.

A NUMBER of our contemporaries
are misleading their readers in the
question of court costs, in payment of
foreign" Judges who assist in courts
other than their own. The expense
is not borne by the individual tax
payers to the extent these criticisms
would imply. But a very small por-
tion of the taxes paid goes to the
state treasury, from which the Judges
draw their salary for extra compensa-
tion. Two-thirds of the state taxes
is paid by corporations, one-half of
the remaining one-third is derived
from the liquor traffic, leaving less
than one-sixth to be paid by the in
dividual taxpayers.

Only One Senator.

The present Congress will expire to-
morrow and if there should be an ex-
ira session of Congress, which fortu-
nately is not likely, the probabilities
are that Pennsylvania will have but
one representative in the Senate
This would be a serious drawback to
the state
The interests of our state are so
many and so varied that she should
be at all times fully represented in
the upper branch of the national
Legislature. Pennsylvania, too, has
been among the most 10y al to Presi-
dent Mckinley, and with one repre-
sentative she will be giving his ad-
ministration only half the support
she should give him.
The deadlock at Harrisburg still
continues, and there is apparently no
indication that it will be broken, Ger
tainly not before the expiration of
the term Of Senator Quay. This con
ditiOn of affairs has a wOeful effect on
legislation affecting the interests of
the state. The Legislature has been
in session nearly two months, and
has practically done nothing in the
way oflegislation.
If they are unable to arrive at II
choice for Senator, they should at
least get down to the business for
which they have been elected. There
are matters requiring serious con
sideration, and they should be taken

year will be completed when the ma

there were only 154 delegates present,
representing 10 states, and a still smaller
number attended yesterday. The advo-

Sailors to BE Mustered out.

the Norfolk navy yard Wednesday, and
it is said at the navigation bureau that
this ship must be followed by others
speedily, 20 the great detriment of the
plans Of the department. The estimates

for 10000 sailors Congress cut this
down TO $4,000. There are now 1S,001
