The doctor may be good old man,
but even so, medical examinations and
the "local-application'' treatment are
abhorrent to every modest woman.
They are embarrassing -often useless.
They should not be submitted to until
everything else has been tried. In
nine cases out of ten, the doctor in
general practice isn't competent to
treat female diseases. They make a
branch of medicine by themselves.
They are distinct from other ailments.
They can be properly understood and
treated only by one who has had years
of actual practice and experience in
this particular line. This is true of
DIR. r. V. Pierce, chief consulting
physician of the invalids' Hotel and
Surgical Institute, at Buffalo, N. Y.

remedy for all arrangements of the
reproductive organs of women, has
been in actual use for more than thirty
years. 1t cures every form of "female
weakness"

Have you ever watched the exceeding
ly delicate and yet firm pressure Of the
hand of skillful tuner? He will make
the string produce perfectly true note,
vibrating in absolute accord with his
own never changing tuning fork. The
practiced hand Is at one with the ac-
curate ear, and the pressure is brought
to bear with most delicate adjustment
to the resistance. The tension is never
exceeded, he never breaks string, but
he patiently strikes the note again and
again till the tone is true and the ear Is
satisfied, and then the muscles relax and
the pressure ceases.

VOLUNTEERS WILL BE HELD.

Washington, March Silt was
stated at the War Department to-day
that the provision of the army law al
lowing the retention in service for six
months of the volunteers in the Phil
ippines had been construed to mean the
officers as we'll as the men, and that
the volunteer organization would be re-
tanned just as they now exist. Gen.
Otis was given largely plenary powers
in the matter, but was instructed by
cable to send all sick and wounded
home, as we'll as volunteers who had
exceptional reasons why they should
return, such as the support of families
and the loss of property by reason of
their absence. Gen. Otis will decide
such questions on their merits.
The volunteers in the Philippines
will not be mustered out until they can
be spared, and the presence there of
these organizations, the War Depart
ment believes, makes it unnecessary to
organize the provisional army of $4,000
allowed under the army law.
