Honey Nest Kl6of, which Lord Methuen
IS reported as occupying, is about ten
miles south Of Modder River. and fifteen
southwest of JacobsdahL From present ap-
pearances the British advance to the river
should be heard from by today or tomor-
row. If the Beers do not make successful
stand there the relief of Kimberley would
seem to be in sight But it will not do to
take too much for granted. Methuen is
moving farther and farther from his base
and his rear may yet become a danger

As the time approaches for action there
are signs that the Republican leaders are
inclined to fight shy of the Roberts bust
ness. On the other hand, there should be
little doubt that the Administration would
like to have the matter settled in some
way, before the thorough suppression of
the House by the adoption of the Reed
rules After that. as all further business
will merely amount to Derfunetory COM
piance with executive orders, the respon-
sibility for legislation will rest upon
the executive department Of the Govern
ment-that is as far as the House of Rep
resentatives may be concerned. The Sen
ate. of course, is still an Independent de-
Lucrative body to considerable extent.

legislation, but he would endeavor to have
an amendment to the interstate COM
merce law passed relating to the differen-

able the millers to manufacture and ship
flour. as the present condition OF rates
causes the shipment of great quantities of
wheat in its raw state. This would give

NO WOMAN is EXEMPT.

Regularity is matter of Importance
in every woman's life. Much pain is,
however, endured in the belief that IL
is necessary and not alarming, when
in truth it is all wrong and indicates
arrangement that may cause serious
trouble
Excessive monthly pain itself will
unsettle the nerves and make women
old before their time.
The foundation of woman's health is
a perfectly normal and regular per-
formance of natures function. The
statement we print from Miss GER
TRUDE SKIES, of Eldred, Pa, is echoed
inevery city, town and hamlet in this
country. Road what she says:
DEAR Mrs PINKHAM:-I feel like a
new person since following your ad-
vice, and think it is my duty to let the
public know the good your remedies
have done me. My troubles were pain
full menstruation and leucorrhna. I
was nervous and had spells of being
confused. Before using your remedies
never had any faith in patent medi-
cines. 1 now wish to say that / never
had anything do me so much good for
painful menstruation as Lydia E. Pink
hams Vegetable Compound; also would
say that your Sanative Wash has cured
me of leucorrh@a. hope these few
words may help suffering women"
The present Mrs. Pinkham's expert
ence in treating female ills is unparal-
leled, for years she worked side by
side with Mrs. Lydia e. Pinkham, and
for sometime past has had sole charge
OF the correspondence department of
her great business, treating by letter
as many as hundred thousand ailing
women during a single year.
All suffering women are invited to
write freely to Mrs. Pinkham, at Lynn,
Mass, for advice about their health.

voyage South to bring back to this coun-
try from Porto Rico and Cuba the remains

ton to Ponce, and will remain there for
the purpose of securing whatever bodies
