PRESIDENT TO AGUINALDO.
Message Sent to the Filipino Leader.
 It's Contents Secret

Washington, Nov. 15.-By direction of the president and the secretary of war, the adjutant general has sent instructions to General Otis to communicate with Aguinaldo and lay before him certain propositions or demands. The military authorities decline to tell what was con tained in the telegram of instructions.
 General Otis in acknowledging the re- ceipt of the dispatch said that he had forwarded it to General Macarthur with directions to get it to Aguinaldo. The fact that the message was given into General MacArthur's care indicates that General Otis believes that Aguinaldo has not escaped over the northeastern range of mountains, but is still in the middle region of Luzon, south of the line which Lawton, Wheaton and Young are estab- fishing from Lingayen gulf across the is land, MacArthur being at Tarlac, the last capital of the so called Filipino gov ernment.

Talk
With Women

II q person Is i'll and needs a medi-
cine is it not wise to get one that has
stood the test of time and has hun
dreds of thousands Of cures 10 its
credit?
A great many women who are i'll try
everything they hear of in the way of
medicine, and this experimenting with
unknown drugs is constant menace
to their already impaired health.
This seems to us very unwise, for
there are remedies which are no ex-
periments and have been known years
and years to be doing only good.
TaSe for instance Lydia +. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound; for thirty
years it's record has been one un-
broken chain of success. No medi-
cine for female ills the world has ever
known has such record for cures.
1t seems SO strange that some people
will take medicines about which they
really know nothing, some of which
might be, and are, really harmful; ;
while on the other hand it is easily
proved that over one million women
have been restored To health by Lydia
L. Pinkham's Vegetable Compound.
We fave published in the news
papers of the United States more
genuine testimonial letters than have
ever been published in the interest Of
any other medicine.
All this should, and does, produce a
spirit of confidence in the hearts of
women which is difficult to dislodge,
and when they are asked to take some
thing else they say, "No, we want
Lydia l.. Pinkham's Vegetable Com
pound, which has been tried, and
never found wanting, whose reliability
is established far beyond the expert
mental stage"
