Do Not Give Up in De-
spair-There is Hop!

For ages it has been thought
that Cancer is incurable, and
those so unfortunate as to have
this dreadful affection have con-
sidered themselves beyond hope of
recovery. The doctors are alb
solutely unable to afford any re
lief, and the poor sufferer might
we'll consider himself on the way
to an early grave.
It is now easy to see why the
doctors have failed to cure Cancer.
Their theories have been all wrong,
and hence their treatment mis-
directed. They have made the
mistake of thinking that by cut
ting out the sore or ulcer, known
as Cancer, the disease would be
gotten rid of, and the patient re-
stored to health. But the cruel
knife accomplishes nothing, for
the Cancer promptly returns and IS
always more virulent than before.
1t has been demonstrated. beyond
doubt, that Cancer is blood disease,
and can not be cured by the surgeons

THE AFRO-AnERICAN COUNCIL

The Afro American Council closed
it performance in Washington by
issuing an address, in which they
say they are not opposed to quail
fled suffrage based on educational
or property qualifications, or on
both. but that the restrictions must
he the same in all the States.
Whether they mean by this that the
franchise laws shall be uniform. the
same in Massachusetts. for instance,
rs in Mississippi, is not quite clear:
but. practically speaking, that is
what their demand amounts to.
If they object to the suffrage laws
of Mississippi. South Carolina or
Louisiana, what are they going to do
about it? These laws have been
tested by the highest courts, and
sustained. They can't reverse the
courts. nor can they get Congress
sional legislation that would nullifv
the constitutional power of the
States to pass such laws.
But the fact that they thus endorse
restricted franchise is confession
of its necessity, and 4 justification of
the action of the States which have
restricted suffrage. They NAV be
assured of the fact, however. that
he more of it. until it becomes the
rule in the South instead of the eX-
ception.-WilminT Star

Thousands of Women

are dragging out weary, miserable eX-
istence, because they do not fully realize
what is the matter with them. They know
that they have female weakness but do
not really appreciate what that means.
They do not know that to this enc trouble
is traceable almost all of their bodily ills
They consider it a disease by itself, and if
they have also neuralgia, nervous head
aches, biliousneSS, kidney troubles and
other things, they see no connection be-
tween them and the arrangements of a
strictly feminine nature. Busy and over
worked physicians often treat these things
as separate ailments. when the whole
trouble has the one source. The repro
ductive organs are so important a part of
the body that when they are ''out of order

How to Prevent Pneumonia.

You are perhaps aware that pneumonia
ALWAYS results from a cold or from an attack
of la grippe. During the epidemic of la
grippe a few years ago when so many cases
resulted in pneumonia, il was observed
that the attack was never followed by that
disease when Chamberlain's Cough Remedy
was used. 1t counteracts any tendency OF
a cold or Ia grippe to result in that danger
